Junior and senior faculty were interviewed to examine perceptions of mentorshipheld by faculty mentees and mentors. Comparisons across mentors and mentees providedinsights into existing alignments and misalignments regarding interpretations of effectivementorship [4], [6].A subset of engineering faculty interviewed for this project stood out as unique from otherparticipants because their perceptions of mentorship were fraught with uncertainty and/orinconsistencies despite being actively engaged in mentor-like support relationships with others.In these discrepant

engineers, students will be comforted to know they can achieve success inengineering and be prepared for the issues they will face in the field. By including social contextfor engineering design, the next generation of engineers will create socially conscious designs andfight for equity in their future careers. This inclusion of social context should be in the forms ofcase studies, debates, or role play, capstone projects rather than just historical examples, whichwill teach students how to critically think about such issues and consider ways in which largersocial structures serve to empower or disenfranchise people. Furthermore, education shouldinclude inclusivity training to discuss issues of equality and inclusion, including gender equity inthe

Lucena & Schneider [1]remind us that while economic and political conditions may have differed across countries,engineers' primary goal during colonization was to transform nature into infrastructure to becontrolled, get a return on investments, and demonstrate superiority over indigenoustechnology. Across different colonizing powers, engineers filled a role in service to thecolonial project. Over time, as colonies became independent countries, engineering was - andstill is - considered an essential tool for helping these “traditional” societies on the path todevelopment [1].

Based on current projections, it is estimated that by the year 2044, underrepresentedminorities (Black, Hispanic, LatinX and American Indian) will comprise over 50% of the overallpopulation in the U.S. However, underrepresented minority (URM) youth lag significantlybehind their white and Asian American counterparts in their interest in STEM. Lowerrepresentation of URMs in STEM can be attributed to a variety of factors including, a lack ofinstitutional commitment, a lack of representation throughout students’ upbringing, ineffectivecultural recruitment/outreach efforts, educational discrepancies throughout PK-12, and socialexpectations, among others.

As opposed to being concise, to the point, or having the data speak for themselves, scholarly writing relies on analysis, synthesis, and logical construction of a proposition with appropriate support. Technical writing is generally designed primarily to transmit specific information, while scholarly writing is designed to underpin the creation of new knowledge.Thus, the way in which technical communication programs approach teaching writing—along with debates on whether or not technical writing
