Even in current day UnitedStates, professions like structural engineering have fewer female and minority industry leadersthan those that are White Caucasian male [1], and the same follows for academics in this field.As a result, many faculty members have limited exposure to the notable published works,projects, and other contributions of under-represented individuals to share with students.Historically, entry to professions in the built environment have been riddled by barriers due togender, race, and class.

During class, students were given a briefexplanation of California’s Cap and Trade Policy. They then played a game to simulate the openmarket of allowances and see where emissions improvements were and were not made. Studentswere then asked what changes could be made to the game (and, by extension, to the Cap-and-Trade Policy) to encourage equity.The senior Capstone class experienced a broader inclusion of social justice in their classcurriculum. From the start of the quarter, students were told they would need to include a socialjustice analysis as part of their Capstone project report. This analysis was required to includemeans

First, there isa significant burden on faculty mentors who, along with designing a research project, are typicallyindividually advising students, training them in reading and writing about research, and critiquingposters and presentations.

Such labs can studybeams under different types of loading, and they are helpful in allowing students to comparelaboratory-quality measurements to theoretical predictions. The other category of experimentsuses hand-held demonstrations or teaching aids to show qualitative behavior. The mainadvantage of these types of teaching aids is that they are inexpensive, portable, and can be usedwithin classroom lectures as a means of just-in-time reinforcement of concepts. Several authors[2]-[4] have discussed experiments relevant to the present work.The goal of this research project is to create an experimental platform that is a compromisebetween the two extremes.
