’ perceptions of diversity and sense of belonging at the university. Studentsacross racial/ethnic identities expressed that they like how diverse South University (pseudonym)is and how diversity is valued and celebrated at the university. For several students, this playedan important role in their college selection. A Mexican American male student shared, “I feelcomfortable knowing that as someone who is Hispanic that my culture is reflected in the valuesthat South University has. … I definitely feel at home here. I don't feel discriminated against or aminority whatsoever.” When asked about what he likes about the university, a white malestudent majoring in mechanical engineering said, “The first thing that came to mind was thediversity … It’s more

The paper willpresent the results of this and several other projects designed and developed under the NSF CCLIgrant and discuss the students’ changing attitudes to electromagnetics.Introduction “Electromagnetics is hard.” This is probably one of the most common first thoughts thatcome to mind whenever electromagnetics (EM) is invoked. The real meaning of this phrase isoften even more discouraging: EM is widely believed to be overly theoretical, unintuitive and alittle irrelevant in today’s engineering world. And this is, typically, an opinion of a person who issomewhat familiar with EM, e.g. a graduate engineering student who took electromagneticsduring their junior or
