The late-1980’s and early 1990’s showed alarge endorsement of student volunteerism and community service from American colleges anduniversities. The U.S. government encouraged universities to embrace the service-learning linkto enhancement of the educational experience as part of the National Community Service Act of1990.

well known in academia.Housner and his students [3] at Cal Tech in the 1940’s and 1950’s experimentally determined thecritical load of a member by means of linearly correlating the square of the frequency and theload; the extrapolated regression line at zero frequency represents the critical buckling load ofthe member. On the theoretical side, the most acknowledged achievements are traced back toTimeshenko [4] who used differential equations to show that as the loading of a columnapproached Euler buckling, the frequency of the first mode approaches zero. Recently Carpinteri[5] presented a solution using potential energy that is well-tailored to student understanding. Hisderivation uses a single degree-of-freedom system similar to that shown in

May 2015. This is the firstcoastal or ocean engineering graduate program at an Historic Black College or University(HBCU). Students may choose a thesis, project or course only option. All options require anoral examination. Seven core courses, one mandatory, comprise the coastal engineeringconcentration. The student may select elective courses from among a large variety of civil andenvironmental engineering graduate courses. This flexibility enables the graduate student totailor coursework to their major civil engineering area(s) of career interest. Laboratory facilitiespotentially available to students are briefly described. The program has a coastal natural disasterfocus and was established as part of the Coastal Hazards Center of

The intentional choices made by Tuskegee and Howard collegesto offer classical humanities educational programs versus applied programs was done with theintent of providing a higher-intellectual set of opportunities for their graduates, in effect allowingthem to become doctors and lawyers and teachers as opposed to applied technologists (Carney).The comparable choice for tribally controlled colleges, currently being decided eitherintentionally or not, is the focus of this paper.The tribal college movement, largely born in the late 1960’s and early 1970’s, served twoimmediate demands on their respective reservations

design was adopted in this project because of its ability to extendthe breadth and range of inquiry by using different methods, to clarify results from one methodwith the results from the other method(s), and to seek elaboration enhancement, convergence,and corroboration of results of different methods (Greene, Caracelli, & Graham, 1989). Weelaborate on our two-phase design as follows. In the first phase, the research team designed a survey based on existing scales andpractical insights from experienced NFLC facilitators and university administrators. The surveywas conducted with faculty members (n=49, with 29 participated in the NFLC) who were hiredsince 2004 with special attention to faculty who started after 2011 (the initiation of

We further acknowledge the need to adapt knowledgetransfer models into practices for administrators and faculty that take into account uniqueorganizational contexts.ConclusionWe have highlighted and discussed four foci related to improving and diversifying engineeringpathways in college: structural issues, data driven research, academic leadership and knowledgetransfer. We look forward to receiving input from the community to advance the discussion.References1. Besterfield-Sacre, M., and L.J. Shuman (2016).

directly linked to student persistence. The factors outlined in thisframework will be central to understanding student success at HBCUs and enable the connectionof the present study’s findings to existing literature.MethodsThe researchers implemented an iterative, descriptive research model by including the followingaction items: (a) engaging research participants; (b) developing data collection strategies; (c)defining variables and constructs; and (d) gathering information and investigating researchquestion(s). This paper focuses on the data collected currently from one institution. The presentresearch study findings are informed by quantitative data. Data from additional HBCUs will becollected and analyzed subsequently.ParticipantsParticipants

in Fig. 1. Fig. 1. Design Thinking Process.The first step in our design thinking process is empathetic understanding and ethicalconsideration of the human problem being undertaken. Empathy is the process whereby thedesigner understands the needs, experiences, and motivations of the person(s) they are designingfor (end users) and the stakeholders. Both emotional and cognitive empathy play a role in thisstep. Empathy can be achieved by various actions and activities. This includes observation,immersion, direct interaction with the end- users and stakeholders, reading, and storytelling [38]- [42]. Through this the designer develops a deeper understanding of the people and issuesinvolved. Ethical
