While a college degree can lead tomany benefits [6], the rise of online course providers such as Coursera, edX, MITOpenCourseWare [7] call into question whether the same knowledge and skills can be acquiredmore economically and effectively elsewhere [7-10].

It found apaucity of studies, leading to the conclusion that faculty DEI-related beliefs are not often studied.Synthesizing the studies that do exist, the authors conclude that most engineering faculty believethat DEI efforts are important, but they do not act on those beliefs due to lack of support. Worksurrounding perceptions of DEI as an intellectual movement, political issue, and/or target oflegislation (as opposed to the DEI-related climate or willingness to enact DEI efforts) are lesscommon (In other words, the literature explores faculty beliefs

This isespecially true of the cyber security related organizations, as the pandemic caused manycompanies to hire remote workers who have never set foot into local business offices.

This paper presents thepersonal experience, collaboration, analysis, and lessons learned developed by three suchindividuals. It is intended to provide insights for communities concerned with the professionaldevelopment of those in similar transitions.For clarity, we use non-tenure track (NTT) as an umbrella term to describe faculty with full-timestatus, who are on limited-term contracts, are promotion-eligible, but differ from their tenure-track/tenured (TT/T) counterparts in that they are not eligible for tenure.

and the goals of the new student feedback instrument. In addition, both student faculty responses indicated that it was hard to gauge the “inclusive” dimension in an engineering classroom. Similar issues with the student evaluation of teaching have been found in other previous studies [23-25]. The faculty concerns on the peer-review form were that the form may be used only in one class, and it would be hard to gage the overall course and the feedback would be the opinion of only one (imperfect) reviewer. Also, the time it takes to complete a peer review and who conducts a peer review were challenges. For the self-reflection form, the challenges were in the time it took to complete the form and that not all the questions seemed relevant to
