Engineering Fundamentals at Michigan TechnologicalUniversity. She received a MBA degree and a PhD degree in Applied Cognitive Sciences and Human Factors programboth from Michigan Tech. Her research program involves using complementary methods (e.g., statistical modeling andanalytics, psychological assessment) to evaluate how individual differences are important and impact behaviors at acultural, social, and behavioral level. She has served as a project evaluator in multiple NSF-funded projects.JOHN L. IRWIN is a professor for Mechanical Engineering Technology at Michigan Technological University, Dr.Irwin teaches courses in product design & development, statics and strength of materials, parametric modeling, andsenior design.

estimate the competency of faculty within an institution by their individualacademic credentials, number, or amount of grants as well as the number of conferences and peerreviewed articles, citation count of each article, or the impact factor of the journal in which thearticles are published. While it certainly has its own concerns, the h-index is still the mostcommon measure of an individual researchers measure of both citation impact and productivity[4]. Next, for an individual student one may determine competence by combined information oftheir degrees, the awarding institutions, and the grade point average (GPA) for each degree [5].How can industry compare engineering graduates from different institutions in differentcountries, much less

Copyright ©2023, American Society for Engineering Education ETD 345One of the most unique aspects of STEM on the Road is that it was conceived and initiated as astudent and faculty-led effort rather than a recruitment and retention event initiated by theadministration. While not intentionally designed as a recruitment and retention program, theSotR project has nonetheless provided for many of the foundational aspects that researchers haveshown are key for any R&R activity. Vincent Tinto, in his classic work on retention, identifiedone of the keys to effective retention as building a strong sense of inclusive educational andsocial community [5]. The SotR

during the decadesleading up to the Internet era. Beginning in the mid-1980s, the field of engineering educationstarted to respond to numerous reports that there needed to be changes made to engineeringeducation. An increased emphasis on synthesis and design, open-ended problem solving,development of management and communications skills, professional development, and career-long learning were all included in this call for change. This response was in reaction to aperceived need to correct a multiple decades long emphasis on engineering science that occurredpost-World War II, tilting the engineering education field away from engineering practice andthe new realities of a global economy that demanded skill sets not emphasized at the time [8

significant consequences. Characterized as“the worst air pollution disaster in U.S. history” [27], this foggy unknown town achievednational recognition.Environmental action. The situation in Donora, coupled with similar events in London, where adeadly fog killed about 12,000 residents, and Engís, Belgium, where 60 died in three days [38],provided the impetus for the 1955 Air Pollution Control Act [37] and the 1963, 1970 Clean AirActs. Indeed, the sign in front of the Donora Smog Museum reads “Clean Air Started Here,”recognizing the impact of that lethal fog. Prior to the Donora event, no one really questionedindustrial pollution [38]. In fact, the common belief was that “smoke in the air was oftenconsidered to be a sign of progress and prosperity
