Minority Participation: America’s Scienceand Technology Talent at the Crossroads: Underrepresented minority groups comprised 28.5 percent of our national population in 2006, yet just 9.1 percent of college-educated Americans in science and engineering occupations (academic and nonacademic), suggesting the proportion of underrepresented minorities in S&E would need to triple to match their share of the overall U.S. population. (p. 3) 1The under-representation of minorities as well as females and persons with disabilities is notsimply a demographic problem but also a social justice problem in a society that professes to beegalitarian and democratic 2. As a result of this awareness, efforts have increased to

students and academic advisors. Academic advisors can continuouslymonitor students’ efforts and progress and the quality of students’ design artifacts. It allowsacademic advisor to provide timely and helpful feedback to students.Although these students were not widely separated by distance, their class schedules made itdifficult to hold full team meetings outside of regularly scheduled class times. They learned toleverage Redmine to work independently but share results across the full team. This experiencehelps students transition to the business world after graduation. Our students learn theimportance of collaboration and gain exposure to the tools that can facilitate this.References 1. Sheppard S, Macatangay K, Colby A, Sullivan WM. Educating

Literature ReviewThe intention of the Messerschmitt Bf 109 is to replace the current line of fighter planesat the time in the 1930’s, which for the German nation at the time included the Arado Ar68 and the Heinkel He 51 as shown in Figure 3. The Arado Ar 80 design was a relativelyconservative open-cockpit monoplane, with the characteristic (Nicolai 2010) forward-setvertical fin. On the other hand, the Heinkel He 112 was a relatively portly aircraft,featuring the Günther brothers' signature elliptical wing planform as first seen on the He70.

unscreened I/O wires can be awkward to handle but they are a working compromise betweensimplicity, frequency range, noise limits and cost. However, other connectors common inlaboratory settings such as BNC coax and scope probes can be easily added.It uses the well-established Digilent Waveforms software to display power supply, analog anddigital signal sources as well as a two-channel fully differential oscilloscope. The maximumsampling rate is 100 M sample/s but oversampling is always assured with 16 k samples in achannel record. This illustrates an interesting design compromise for the educational market. Itmeans a lower nominal bandwidth but since the full frame of the oscilloscope image has 16 kdata points, there is no risk of undersampling. For
