, depending on the round ofstakeholder feedback and commensurate to the time commitment required. We plan to expandour recruitment efforts in 2019 to increase survey participation/completion numbers frommarginalized students. In the remainder of this section, each step of the instrument developmentprocess is summarized briefly. For a more detailed description of the process see [10].Theoretical Constructs and Item Bank DevelopmentThe initial item bank was based on the MCCS, which was developed from a multi-site case studyof student support practitioners and students involved in six different student support centersserving STEM students across four U.S. universities [1],[9]. For the development of an itembank, we leveraged the theoretical constructs

Kevindescribed meeting locals and discussing sports or comparing their city to Kevin’s home city.Steven reflected on conversations about stereotypes and history with locals. Ben expressed adesire to interact with locals and then described two successful encounters: one about sports andone about U.S. politics. Finally, James described meeting people in bars and meeting a “certifiedcommunist” among other locals. James reflected on his interactions with various non-programparticipants throughout the trip: For me, the most lasting value of RSAP comes down to the countless

I’m in 202 right now, and I think this is the first time that I've had a group that everybody actually shows up.Throughout Sean’s military service he grew an expectation of what he believed working in ateam should be like. He believes that his student peers do not meet that expectation and, due tothis belief, he sees them as subpar. Because of his opinions of civilians, Sean spends his timefocused on his studies and his civilian job, but not on social activities with peers. Noted above,he comments on two years into his plan of study being the first time his entire team has

the Science and Engineering Indicatorsreport. Some other differences among the data is that overall enrollment is only reported on theundergraduate level, the median number of years for degree completion is only reported for thegraduate level, and post-graduation plans are only reported on the graduate level.Despite its shortcomings in how often intersectional data is reported, the data on participation inengineering in higher education is the most comprehensive and consistently reported. This mayexplain why progress in BPE is commonly measured using data associated with degrees.

, handling stress, etc. Service and Civic Responsibility: Engineering is a service profession. Engineers are charged to use their talents and gifts to solve problems that impact others. The performance and practice of engineering is an act of service. Understanding of Engineering Ethics: Engineers are expected to exhibit the highest standards of honesty and integrity. Engineers are to hold paramount the safety, health, and welfare of the public. Those whom engineers serve deserve nothing less. As one example, the competencies are also used in the required first-year seminar course, wherestudents create action plans and write goals to

program administration view, where Black women recruitment and retentionadministrators in STEM face marginalization and silencing, leading to limitations in decisionmaking and funding decisions at the college and university level [22]. It is common withinworking groups or meetings that relatively privileged groups take up more space inconversations and the voices of minoritized groups are not heard or represented. Onemanifestation of this aspect is the communication of viewpoints by white cisgender womenleaders, who believe they represent all diversity but only represent the experiences of whitecisgender women. It can also occur in male-dominant environments in which co-curricularprogram planning occurs (e.g., a minority engineering program). The
