the effects of recruitment and retentionshould be a long-term project for the engineering industry. It is also of a cyclical nature; the morewomen in engineering the more congruence it will have with other women. Ideally this issuewould be addressed at a young age when children are socialized into gendered career norms.However, engineering programs do still have the power to make an impact on the genderincongruence female students may experience as potential engineers. Efforts are being made tocreate outreach initiatives exposing younger girls to engineering.51 PV is certainly not the onlyexample but can do its part in limiting gender incongruence through the design andimplementation of programs both inside and outside of the classroom

: My wife is actually farther advanced in her career for a number of reasons...narrowness of field, a tighter-knit technical community, the ability to work full- time while earning her doctorate in a collaborative research project between her university and company. This doesn't remotely bother me, because I have had to work in different types of experiences to determine where I wanted to be and in which type of organization. I have now found it, and in many ways I'm in a more "prestigious" position than she is, even though she earns far more in salary than I do. It's one "us" unit, not two "me" units, and that works great for us. Panelist E Spouse: My  For the most part, we are at the same level, however the difference is

common academic responsibilities and goals such asmajors, classes, and projects or assignments or individuals whom the participant considers to bea friend. The assumption that friends be considered as peers is acceptable given that references tofriends in participant narratives referred ostensibly to individuals who belonged to the samegeneration as the participants. Shared objectives and responsibilities allowed participants todiscuss specific issues such as the implications of academic choices on access to futureopportunities in education and career. Dinar’s comments on mentorship reflect this view of peersas mentors: “Mentors? Uh, I think my peers, like who I have classes with and same major as me,we- I think we kind of help each other out

research projects and jobs inthe field (both on campus and off) as being factors in one’s chance of being admitted. Of all ofthese, however, grades seemed to be what most students thought was given the greatest weight inthe decision about their futures in engineering. This is not surprising, given that much of the Page 12.428.9assessments given by advisors relied heavily upon GPA. The other things, like activities played asupporting role. They were things used to bolster or prop up one’s chances, if one’s GPA was notbelieved to be strong enough.The students who were most confident in their chances, like Joe and Renee, talked very little, ifat all

Development of the surveyinstrument began in 2002 with in-depth interviews of 26 women faculty in the biologicaland physical sciences. Their comments formed the basis of an instrument designed toinvestigate gender differences in workplace experiences of men and women faculty inbiological and physical sciences. In late 2003, just before the instrument was to befielded, the Office of the Provost requested that the survey be sent to all faculty in alldivisions, and funded the additional costs associated with the expansion of the survey.This survey was

24.323.9females who used one or more forms of supplemental instruction increased this year by 6%compared to last year; the percentage of males was unchanged from last year. These differencescan be attributed to some students receiving better grades than their trigger point for seeking helpand some students not seeking help when they projected they would.This year 47% of honors males and 48% of honors females indicated at the beginning of thesemester that they would seek out extra help with grades of B or C. We found that at the end ofthe semester these honors students sought extra help with grades of B or C, as they projected.The average threshold value was slightly lower, closer to a grade of C, for honors students thanfor non-honors students. 90% of
