In the case of this discussion, it has been recognized fordecades that female STEM faculty benefit from mentoring due to their unique position inacademia.1 Not only are there issues based on gender, but female STEM faculty are often part ofa non-traditional group, which may include older, minority, and disabled women. Due to thenature of this paper, we will consider these topics as appropriate, but will focus on retention ofwomen in academia, support from other professional societies, networking

. Justine reflected on times when she did not trust herinstincts, stating, “The most important thing is to not give up on that instinct. There’s a reasonyou feel that way.”Acknowledging Pressure to Go Along Just like pressure in a liquid or gas may be used by a professional engineer to exert forcein a mechanical system, pressure may be used by a leader to encourage compliance with anunethical directive or request. Of course, pressure in a liquid or gas may be easier to measure andevaluate than the human mind when under stress. Participants emphasized the importance oftheir awareness of what actions others had taken to apply pressure and how they were feelingunder that pressure, both as a means to respond appropriately and to avoid

As discussed in Part 1, these purposes included: increasing awareness ofengineering, promoting engineering in the K-12 classroom, increasing diversity in engineering, andincreasing recruitment for the host institution.The table below shows correlations between types of events and these four purposes. Keep in mind thata single program might be reported as serving multiple purposes. To calculate the correlations, wegrouped responses by purpose and then totaled the programs reporting each type of event within eachgroup. The correlation value is the second number divided by the first number. For example, 44programs reported doing exposure events among the 65 programs working to promote awareness ofengineering.

the heart of the reason for listening toothers: “I think a part of innovation is life’s experiences, what someone has really done in their lifetime, what kinds of experiences they’ve had. (Innovation happens) if in fact their mind or their thinking is open to the point where they are inquisitive. They want to know. They want to know more. Or they’ve had a personal experience in their life that has been puzzling and they just don’t have a solution for it and they want to be able to find it.”- GeorgeRisk taking or the willingness to risk failure is an attribute of an innovative engineer but not anattribute that is found in abundance among practicing engineers.
