workshops has been a focus on community.The power of the EU network is the crisscrossing nature of relationships linking faculty membersfrom different institutions including private and public, small and large, and urban and ruralschools. This has created a natural opportunity to develop and offer faculty developmentworkshops that build bridges linking faculty across disciplines and institutions. When the facultydevelopment workshops were originally conceived, it was believed that in-person experienceswere critical for community building, despite the significant investment in both cost and facultytime.In 2019 six in-person faculty development workshops were supported and offered under theauspices of EU.

American Society for Engineering Education, 2019 Inverted Approach to Teach InversionAbstractInversion is one of the most important weather phenomena that determines air quality and istypically covered in courses concerning air pollution. Anecdotal evidence indicates that followingtextbook readings and lectures, students generally express misconceptions about this topic. Addingactive learning to the classroom has been advocated amongst the best practices for highereducation, with physical in-class demonstrations being especially effective for engineeringeducation. The study explores the impact of adding a laboratory demonstration, centered oncreating an artificial inversion layer (with dry ice, smoke bombs, and bubble

More recent data has shown that for every seven White orAsian students that obtain a Ph.D., only one underrepresented minority student will obtain adoctorate in engineering (National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, 2018;Women, Minorities, and Persons with Disabilities in Science and Engineering: 2019, 2019). Transitioning into the doctorate without having a proper understanding of what it entailscan make the journey unnecessarily difficult (Lovitts, 2001; Weidman, Twale, & Stein, 2001).Students often enter the doctorate, assuming that what made them successful as an undergraduatewill
