Artificial intelligence (AI) continues to be felt both in academia and industry, yetits full potential is yet to be exploited for the common good. While AI technologies areincreasingly being implemented, questions linger over their long-term impact on education andthe workforce. Recent research efforts have focused on promoting the ethical and responsible useof AI. As a result, explainable AI, which focuses on helping users understand how AI systemsmake decisions, has received a lot of interest [1].Even though some skepticism about AI decisions still lingers, it is already transformingworkplaces by enhancing efficiency, automating repetitive tasks, and enabling data-drivendecision-making.

Rising temperatures, prolonged droughts, andshifting precipitation patterns, all exacerbated by climate change, have created more favorableconditions for wildfires (Lee and Banerjee 2021, Keelay, J. et al. 2009). Additionally, increaseddevelopment in fire-prone areas and accumulated vegetation due to past fire suppression effortshave further heightened the risk. As a result, the state has seen a surge in both the number andintensity

These ever-present emotionalaspects to working in a team are found not only in student projects, but also on the projects theywill be working on once they graduate. Finding the skills as a student to successfully navigatethe myriad of issues that may arise when working with others, sets student up for success in theirengineering careers after graduation, as shown by Jones (1996) [1] and Seat et al.

For example, Dr. Madani shared: “I just want to be on the record as saying I am flat-out straight against entrepreneurship because as a scientist, I don’t want our students to grow up thinking, “I’m making this to sell it.” I am 100% supportive of entrepreneurship mindset” (Madani Interview, 04/29/2021)Dr. Madani’s exemplar animates the challenges some women STEM faculty
