supporting institutional goals for diversity and inclusion can be bothdirect and indirect, depending on parent institution’s structure and mission. Support is directwhere academic libraries are integral to the strategic goals for research and teaching—twostrategic goals that are easily quantifiable and universal aspects. Academic libraries canarticulate direct support through collection development, reference, and instruction. Selectingmaterials is in the purview of subject area liaisons—who are engaged in reference and instructionas well—whose commitment to diversity and inclusion may vary by institution, department, orthe particular faculty requesting such materials.

addressing the“soft skills” that are often absent in the typical engineering curriculum. Respondents 1 and 2mention the ideas of project and time management as applicable skills gained from thecontest. Respondent 1, 2, and 3 all mention gaining practice in presenting their research toothers, through the proposal and the pitch. Respondents 3 and 5 talk about being able to developtheir ideas, both through iteration and through research. This aligns with our plan for the contesttimeline to be an entire semester, rather than a compressed hackathon. These students indicatethat researching and writing proposals is useful practice as a professional skill. Perhaps evenmore inspiring is that Hack Dibner seemed to spark true commitment and enjoyment in

are youdoing to work with 10,000 students? It's not possible! You have to take a strategic approach. Soyou have to meet with … deans, associate deans, you have to know all of them. …Every departmenthad a director or a chair – you have to know them, which means you have to meet with them all atleast once a year. Every department has an undergraduate curriculum person and a graduatecurriculum person. You have to know them. Those roll in and out, so you have to stay on top of it.So you are going to meet all of them.
