disseminatepower, transferring the narrative around issues to individuals and stakeholders.Alternative strategies in meeting civic hackathon goalsWork that “change[s] material conditions rather than just winning empty declarations ofequality” stems from uprooting existing harmful systems, directly providing for people targetedby those systems, and building alternative infrastructures [29]. These are mutual aid principlesreiterated by Dean Spade and are rooted in ending white supremacy, colonial structures,capitalism, and borders [29]. Hackathons are distinctly not a part of this work, but they stillprovide compounding professional and personal benefits and awareness to movements.Once a host identifies their key goals, alternative events to hackathons may

Over the past three years, the Engineering College of theUniversity of Wisconsin has been working with the Forest ProductsLaboratory (FPL) to provide pertinent and current text material for usein teaching students about wood. In the summer of 1979, the FirstHeritages Workshop was held in Madison, on 11 Wood-It 1 s Structure andProperties 11 , organized by FPL with funding from the Clark C. HeritageBequest. This workshop brought together world renowned experts topresent a series of coordinated lectures on wood.

By necessity, the full professor has littleor no time to interact with students on a one-to-one basis. This inter-action is delegated to the scientific assistants (S.A.) who hold the re-citation sessions and consult, generally by appointment, with the indivi-dual student on specific questions. Laboratories are normally conductedby the graduate assistants under the supervision of an S.A. The graduateassistants also grade the laboratory reports. Written examinations areorganized, administered and evaluated by the S.A. with the helo of gra-duate assistants. S.A.'s are also the advisors

With traditionalprogramming languages students are required to learn complex vocabularies and grammars, incontrast programming in Alice involves dragging and dropping of well formed and validprogram statements. Modification of these statements is done by selecting options fromdropdown menus. It is impossible to produce the dreaded compile error and very unlikely toproduce a program that doesn t run the ver first time. This eliminates of the need to memorizea vocabulary and grammar, which subsequently speeds up the opportunity to experience creativeexpression.

Another example is age, where students spoke of age in the context ofbeing young and how that impacts whether they are valued or respected as engineers. Table 1.

completionof an OER textbook was entirely altruistic. It is also a personal quest. As former students andnow educators, we have seen the cost of textbooks spiral out of control. We have also observedhow textbooks that were used as part of the education of the first author in the 1990’s, are stillmarketed several editions later with very little change in content, while still rising in cost. Withthat said, I immersed myself in this project to create an OER textbook with a sense of duty, assomething that needed to be done in order to help ease the burden of my students. What startedas a humble approach to publishing an OER soil mechanics laboratory manuscript, has flourishedinto a much more engaging and complete textbook by using commonly available
