to calibrate and compare their own progression through their degreeprograms to the progress of their peers. As implied by curricular flowcharts (another importantartifact), the default progression for engineering students begins in the first semester with Calc1, proceeding onwards through the math sequence and ideally completing the required coursesby the fourth semester of their undergraduate careers. Consequently, students classified as notready for Calc 1 who start at Pre-Calc in their first semesters are already “behind” their peersfrom the start of their college experiences while students who place into Calc 2 or 3 their firstsemesters are “ahead.” Feeling behind rather than ahead can be potentially detrimental to studentattitudes and

Students with disabilities must oftenspend more energy than their peers to negotiate physical, cultural, and bureaucratic structures ofthe university to effectively access the curricular and co-curricular resources necessary tosucceed.Our work addresses this vital need by heeding the call of the Research in the Formation ofEngineers (RFE) program to explore the “development of identity as an engineer and itsintersection with other identities” [9] by using grounded theory to understand how students withdisabilities develop (or fail to develop) professional identities.

problem of retaining students in a program of study in engineering has long beena problem for engineering educators…Roughly fifty percent of the students who begin inengineering leave the field before receiving their engineering degree [1].” According toAnderson-Rowland [2], the enrollment of minority freshman in engineering had increased morethan six fold during the 1980s and 1990s. However the attrition rate for freshman engineeringminorities was still high. Moreover, after five years of study, the graduation rate for minoritystudents (African American, Hispanic American, and Native American), is much lower than thatof non-minorities.

Social connectionsallow students to “bond with other students to achieve a common goal,” such as completing theirdegree program [8].Additionally, non-academic factors like social support (level of social support a student feels theinstitution provides) and social involvement (extent to which a student feels connected to thecollege environment, peers, faculty, and others in college, and degree to which a student isinvolved in campus activities) positively affect student retention [9].

One such group of invisible marginalized people in STEM are LGBTQ+ engineers, whonavigate a chilly, heteronormative climate in higher education [5] [6]. Additionally, prior studieshighlight how students with multiple-marginalized identities face more barriers than those withone or fewer marginalized identities [7] [8]. Students resist this chilly climate and can overcomethese barriers by forming communities of support, gaining power within the department, andinteracting with peers to create a more inclusive culture [2]. Resistance to this environment canbe influenced by the visibility of students’ marginalized identities [1
