Misconceptions or lack of knowledge are the leading cause of apprehension in active participation in RWH. 4. Participants indicated they would be willing to pay $50 for an RWH project in their homes. This can present an opportunity to incentivize participation in RWH initiatives. 5. The differing opinions on climate change, such as the belief that humans do not affect climate change, decrease the desire to participate in RWH practices. If

Surveying makes use of manyrevolutionary technologies including Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), laserscanning, photogrammetry, and mapping using small unmanned aerial systems (sUASs).However, the surveying profession suffers from low public profile, making it difficult to attractstudents in surveying / geomatics programs, with many surveying programs experiencing lowenrollment.

Otherstudies have explored renaming motivations and results in geography [13], agronomy [14],writing programs [15], vocational education [16], and institutions [17], [18]. There is a generalconsensus that names are powerful, and changes often reveal tensions with the health and/oridentity of programs. Frazier et al.

First-yeargraduate students are expected to use their technical expertise and independence inadvanced-level courses and projects/scientific research, alongside older graduate students, withlittle mentoring or training to ease this transition.
