We show how students' conceptualization of differentstakeholders was relational, in that the ways in which pregnant women were conceptualized wasentangled with how Target was conceptualized. We also argue that the way students constructvarious stakeholders over three focus group sessions constrained how they were able tounderstand any of the stakeholders as causing harm or being harmed.Introduction Engineering ethics educators have developed a wealth of curricula that engagesengineering students in learning about codes of ethics and micro-ethical issues. However, muchof these curricula does not engage how technology's design and implementation is reflective ofsociopolitical systems and never value-neutral or how ethical

political identity, social welfare, and perspectives ofdiversity. In reflecting on the personal impact of recent national events and how politicaldiscussions have or have not been integrated into their STEM courses, two themes emerged: 1)political awareness and 2) future-self impact. Findings revealed that first year engineeringstudents recognized the personal and social impacts current national events imposed on theirfriends, family, and society. However, students did not sense the significance of politicaldiscourse concerning the social impact and ethical practice of engineering. Our research showsthat limiting political discourse in the classroom and depoliticizing engineering spacescontributed to students dissociating the relevance of political

Results show a significant reduction in the advising session duration and general satisfaction from both faculty and students. The study is still ongoing. The next steps involve standardization and validation. We plan to standardize the process by reflecting and rectifying problems that aroused during Fall 2018. Some problems included miscommunication between PMs and faculty and delays in obtaining the executive summaries. We would like to expand the use of the new advising process to including all advising faulty and all first-year students in Fall 2019. The validation/post-implementation phase is conducted

Birthrates also declined (in comparison to the boom of the 1950s),household sizes dropped, and divorce rates grew, so that by 1978, women headed over 14percent of American families. Although occupations continued to remain highly segregatedalong gender lines, more and more women began to enter the workforce. By 1978, women madeup 42% of wage earners, up from 32% in 1950. Among working women, 78 held jobs in sales,service, or factories, while only 22% worked in managerial or professional occupations—and themajority of those were in teaching and nursing [16].

because culture influences what constitutesintelligence and intelligent acts [9, 10]. Indeed, conceptions of “smartness” in school often caterto analytical abilities, while ignoring other types of intelligence, such as creative or practicalabilities [11]. This emphasis on analytical abilities is magnified even further in engineeringschool, where math and engineering science dominate the curriculum. This cultural norm ofvaluing analytical intelligence above all else reflects white, middle class constructions ofintelligence. This reality contributes to the exclusionary narratives about who belongs inengineering as the qualities that are revered in academia (e.g., brilliance, rigor, seriousness,rationality, objectivity, etc.) are all traditionally

Motivational measures are important becausethey reflect not only how engaged a student is in the present, but also how likely they are toremain engaged and persist with their studies in the future. Research has shown that beingintrinsically or self-motivated predicts a student’s desire to learn and achieve better than
