And then the people that it really bothers, um, I think that’s, that’s difficult (Female faculty)The issue seemed beyond some of the faculty members’ comfort levels: Yes…I don’t think engineers are traditionally very good about addressing some of the touchier issues, and I would certainly not feel comfortable. If I had to do it, I’d give it a good shot, but I’d rather just have them know that I don’t want to hear that kind of language, but I don’t want to discuss precisely what it is I don’t want to hear.

Related to the accreditation process, forexample, Riley highlights the incompatibility of diversity initiatives with outcomes-basededucation [20].

The process of discussing/ (arguing for) one’s understanding of an experience with peersand/or more knowledgeable others (teachers, parents) is in effect, the process of knowledgeconstruction (“first between people”) which is followed by the individual process of internalizingthe knowledge (“and then inside the child”).
