to switching sources. 2. AN EXAMPLE OF A LEAD COMPLEX: PLATTERNITE. Lead pipes are made of Pb0. This form of solid lead is readily oxidized to many lead compounds, including plattnerite (PbO2(s)). When lead pipe is stored above ground, a layer of PbO 2(s) can form before the pipe is installed. When exposed to water, PbO 2(s) can be reduced to Pb2+ which is soluble in water. (a) Write the redox half reaction for the reduction of PbO 2(s) to Pb2+. (b) Write the redox half reaction for the oxidation of H 2O to O2. (c) Write the overall chemical reaction for the conversion of PbO 2(s) to Pb2+ in the presence of H2O. 3. PREVENTING LEAD LEACHING WITH ORTHOPHOSPHATE. Orthophosphate can (and should

This means that the technical leader must consider the problem(s) in lightof both the individuals involved and the engineering or scientific challenges. Unfortunately,academic training does not build awareness of such issues, and therefore does not equip studentsor postdoctoral scholars with tools to address these situations.Technical degree programs focus on technical competency, continuous learning, passion forengineering and science, and ability to identify significant problems. Aptitude in these areas isessential but not sufficient for success in technical leadership. Effective leaders also must

Typical class sizes in the ME program gradually increased from 10-20 students in 1980’s,to 20-40 students in 1990s, 30-60 students up to 2002, and finally to 40-130 students beyond 2002.The author has observed that 95-100 % students attend classes when class size is less than 30students.

IntroductionBeginning in 2016 at New Mexico State University (NMSU), a one-on-one mentoring program wasintroduced as part of a National Science Foundation (NSF)-funded S-STEM grant designed tosupport academically talented engineering students who demonstrated financial need for up to eightsemesters. The full program included individualized self-assessment and monitoring academicsuccess workshops, metacognition and self-efficacy training, and self-study skills in addition to thefaculty mentoring.The goal of the faculty mentoring program was to be one component of creating a supportiveclimate for the cohort students. Specifically, the faculty mentoring was to allow each student
