National Academies Gathering Storm committee concluded several years ago that theprimary driver of the future economy, security of the United States (US) as a nation, andconcomitant creation of jobs would be innovation—largely derived from advances in scienceand, particularly, in engineering [1]. It has been estimated that close to 50% of the students whobegin their education in engineering do not follow through to the completion of an engineeringdegree [2]-[5]. Some studies have further documented that the propensity for engineeringstudents to attrit is particularly high during their first two years of college [2], [4]. Givenengineers’ critical role in the growth of the U.S.’s economy, security as a nation, and creation ofjobs, this high-level of

while discussing our research findings withthe deans, which ensured their continued support as we developed and launched the workshop.Throughout the process of presenting the workshops, we found participation among chairs wasunusually high. This was likely because the dean’s office in each college was responsible forcoordinating the scheduling and RSVPs for their respective event(s). In some cases, deans orassociate deans stayed for the full workshop, which added importance and urgency to the topic,as it demonstrated commitment at the highest levels within the college.Reflecting on how we were able to successfully engage with the deans to garner support for ourworkshop, we likely benefitted from increased institutional attention to the

marginalized experiences that Black PhD students navigate in academia are a reflection of oursociety, hence its critical time that academic work reaches beyond the traditional journal venues. Also,development of the ethno-theater-based monologues/scripts call for a re-consideration of currentpedagogical practices and policies in higher academia as professors and stakeholders will witness theenactment of some experiences that are everyday reality for Black students. The magnitude of the audio-visual elements of emotions and metaphor of marginalization through different “faces” are profoundreflection tools. References[1] A. S. Browman and M.

Sources of influence can impact students in differentways depending on the proximity of the influence to the individual [7]. We use Bronfenbrenner’s[8] Ecological Systems Theory to contextualize and describe the settings in which culturalwealth is enacted and their proximity to the student.In this paper, we combine the theories of Community Cultural Wealth and Ecological SystemsTheory to create a novel framework, Community Cultural Wealth Ecological Systems Theory(C2WEST). As an asset-based framework, we contend that C2WEST can provide contextualizedinformation on the strengths of Black engineering students. We use C2WEST to explain thescope

While underclassmen primarily utilize Microsoft Excel,upperclassmen have used a combination of MATLAB, R, Python, and/or Minitab, depending onthe language(s) employed in courses they have previously taken. For students lacking anybackground working with statistics, basic tutorials in statistics and MATLAB were providedoffline during office hours. These tutorials consisted of small-group meetings with the instructorin which the instructor introduced fundamental statistical tests (e.g., ANOVA, t-tests, etc.) and/orcoding principles (e.g., data visualization functions, scripts, etc.) While the tutorials did notexceed more than 3-4 hours

The writing assignment requires students tocreate their superhero's name, logo/symbol, origin story, superpowers, the villain and injusticesthe superhero is motivated to fight against, and physical appearance, and character/personalitytraits. The superpowers must be based on fluid properties and align with the specific properties ofthe chosen fluid(s) the superhero uses or encounters.A worksheet is provided with questions to help students with ideation and organization of ideas,storylines, and details.
