However, unlike other Minority-serving Institutions (MSIs), the HSIdesignation is appointed at the federal level, where institutions of higher learning may apply tobecome HSIs once their undergraduate enrollment reaches or surpasses the 25% Hispanic/Latin*student threshold. This definition, coupled with the change in demographics across the Nation,has resulted in a deluge of newly minted HSIs in the past decade alone. Yet many of theseinstitutions join the ranks of HSIs without having an established mission to serve the needs ofunderrepresented communities, and those of the Latin* community, specifically (Aguilar-Smith,2021; Vargas & Villa-Palomino, 2019). As a result, much work has focused on

One finding we did nottalk about and should also be addressed is that folks should provide instruction on cooking.We found many students did not know how to cook or what to cook and that that issuemade planning a meal more strenuous. Provide cooking classes if your campus canmanage.That’s the end of my presentation. Thank you.

classroom environments.However, while research trends indicate interest in studying faculty development, there is limitedresearch on faculty motivations specifically, as indicated by a 2019 search that identified 579publications for ‘faculty + development’ but only 87 publications for ‘faculty + motivation’ [24].Understanding faculty motivations for engaging in faculty development programs is essential fordesigning effective faculty development programs that align with faculty interests andinstitutional goals.Despite the recognized importance of CRP, there is limited research on the specific motivationsof engineering faculty to participate in faculty development programs focused on these inclusiveand equitable pedagogical approaches.
