I have always been interested in learning,teaching, and mentoring. I had the opportunity to engage with this process of becoming aprofessor in a much more structured, scaffolded, and safely strategic environment than iscommon for engineering faculty. I have a master's in chemical engineering; thus, I feel veryconfident in my engineering identity, ability to comprehend and communicate the material, andmy familiarity with both the difficulty of the learning process and the struggles of being a studentthrough an engineering program.

We used the Zoom recordings and transcriptions of these meetings as well as our teamâsfield notes to create an ethnographic record. We used Spradley (1980)âs Developmental ResearchSequence (D.R.S.) to guide our analysis of the ethnographic record [5].First, we conducted a grand tour (i.e., high level) observation of the ethnographic record toidentify key components of Team Yâs culture. We focused our observations by identifying theactivities, places, goals, time frames, and feelings expressed in relation to the engagement of theundergraduate members of Team Y. Following this grand tour description, we conducted threedomain analyses: the

Invitations for the events were sent out 1-3 weeksbefore each event through graduate college newsletters and with the help of staff graduatecoordinators and student volunteers from each department. Flyers were also put up on noticeboards in the engineering buildings. Three surveys were conducted throughout the program: onejust after the first event in the series, one at the end of the Fall 2022 semester, and the last one atthe end of the Spring 2023 semester.The program targeted three categories of intervention: belonging (B), advice and support (A), andskills and opportunities (S).

For students, the university experience today is aconstant cycle of attempting to absorb new information, learning just enough to completeassignments, turning in those assignments, and moving on to the next. Educators typically provideample opportunity to practice skills, but little opportunity to reflect upon them. Academia does notalways approach reflection with the most favorable perspective.
