Thus, the re-design of the Statics course to accommodate neurodiverse studentshas the potential to be beneficial for all.With the accelerating change of pace in the 21st century, Cropley [7] stated that

, whereinover 9,000 students from the top 21 doctoral-granting institutions in the U.S. were surveyed. Theresults indicated that while every respondent recognized a faculty advisor, 43% of Black doctoralstudents in STEM reported that they did not have a mentor, compared to 24% of their Whitecounterparts [10]. Furthermore, the attrition of doctoral students remains remarkably high in STEM anddisproportionately so for those who hold marginalized identities in their fields [11]; some studiesestimate that over 50% of doctoral students will not finish their degrees [12], [13]. It may not comeas a surprise that insufficient mentoring can negatively impact graduates students’ decision topersist in their degree programs, among a myriad of other factors

These participants measured themselves against an externalreference group of similarly trained academics in their discipline, and tended to express limitedloyalty to the college. In contrast, professors with a “local” orientation viewed themselves ascontributing members of the “Co-op College” faculty. They were aware of their disciplinarytraining, but tended to measure themselves against a reference group of colleagues and viewthemselves as primarily responsible to their students and employers.

Some of these include exhibiting astrong academic performance, completing an internship, participating in a research project witha faculty member, or taking a leadership role in a professional student chapter.
