) found variations in time expenditures in teaching, service, andresearch for faculty at four-year institutions depending on their gender, race/ethnicity, and familystatus. A more nuanced conclusion is that these results are sensitive to the definitions of totalwork hours and research productivity, which has implications on institutional policy inevaluation and reward structures and their potential impacts on faculty groups. Link et al. (2008)investigated the time allocation teaching, research, grant writing, and service activities ofengineering and science faculty at 150 Extensive Doctoral/Research Universities and thevariations based on tenure status/rank, years in rank, gender, race, and family status. The studyindicated that time allocations

(formally The College of Technology), which is one ofPurdue University’s 10 colleges, is “a transformational college unbounded by tradition… pioneers of learn-by-doing and use-inspired research” (Purdue Polytechnic Institute,2016a). The transformation efforts, which started in 2013 and continue today offerextraordinary opportunities to students and faculty and touch all parts of the college,including curricula, teaching methods, and learning spaces. The breadth and depth ofthe transformation are enormous. Purdue Polytechnic Institute’s mission statement isthe following: 3 To inspire, educate, and mentor students through learn-by-doing and integrated study, preparing graduates for success
