We identified active andearly engagement of female and underrepresented minority prospective students in an on-campusevent as a way to interest them in our graduate programs. During the one- to two-day eventstudents have the opportunity to engage with faculty, staff and students in their program(s) ofinterest, prepare for the application process and learn about funding and faculty research

The conclusion of themodule requires students to write a reflective essay where they analyze the presentations moreformally for the intended audience, author biases, and methodologies. The students are asked tofind one thing they agree with and disagree with on both sides of the debate. Current students(2017) seem to readily accept ecological concerns about consumerism and show a desire forfairness and equity. This author believes those attitudes are well established in current K-12education. This provides a nice frame, as time allows, to introduce principles from sustainabilityengineering and design, which are intended to analyze rigorously the
