barriersthat impact their access to and success in higher education [5]. One significant issue is the growingnumber of students in poverty. Community colleges, for instance, have seen a notable increase inthe number of dependent students from impoverished families, rising from 13% in 1996 to 27% in2016 [6]. The rising cost of college coupled with the slow rise of income and lack of awareness offinancial support can lead some families to believe that college is out of reach [5]. The purchasingpower of the Pell Grant, developed for students whose families meet certain income criteria, hassignificantly declined over the past few decades further exacerbating these challenges [7].Academic preparation is another barrier, as disparities in college completion

they engage in interdisciplinary discussions, explain how multiple factors have contributed to infrastructure inequities and how they can be part of the solution. This also emphasizes the importance of relying on multiple disciplines in different fields of knowledge to address JEDI issues. Additionally, the framework proposed includes, in its structure and suggested activities, multiple opportunities for students to evolve from foundational understanding to thinking in multi- disciplinary ways and being creative in the design of solutions. Collaborative efforts and increased visibility of these narratives among the engineering students, and the community at large, will amplify the potential for meaningful change

improve the field’s diversity, adaptability, and competitiveness, the Year of Impact on Racial Equity is focused on creating organizational change to address the culture, policies, and racial and ethnic representation within engineering student organizations, colleges of engineering, and pre-college outreach efforts. These 12 months will move us beyond action to focus on the impact of the actions we take. We expect that actions in these domains will result in three concrete forms of impact: (1) empowered engineering student organizations, which will make engineering education more inclusive at the level of peer-to-peer interactions; (2) actionable organizational policies and effective practices

, SaP can also support STEM students’ engagement in DEI efforts. For example, in2015, Bunnell et al. [26] developed a course titled “Being Human in STEM (HSTEM)” atAmherst College, which engages students in action research projects on topics related todiversity and inclusion in STEM. In personal reflections, HSTEM course alumni noted that theirparticipation in the course supported them in making sense of their own and other students’experiences of marginalization, combatting feelings of isolation, and feeling empowered aschange agents within the Amherst STEM community [26].3.

When the tuition isincreased to cover the cost of the discount, the students with lower credit hour enrollments areeffectively subsidizing the discount for those with higher credit loads. Clearly, students frommarginalized communities who tend to be low-income and transfer from community collegebenefit less and are effectively subsidizing a benefit for higher-income, non-transfer, whitestudents.Looking at the three-part test laid out by the U.S. Department of Justice for Title VI [20], thisanalysis shows that this policy has a measurable disparate impact on students of color.

effective approaches for incorporatingsocial impacts into technical courses.ContextWe have known for a while that the time spent training to become an engineer is an importantand formative time for engineering students. Engineering education is the ‘causal relationship’that links education to the development of technology and products for consumer use andcompany profit [16, pg. 149]. To ensure students feel safe enough to learn in their programs andtruly engage in that formative process, engineering educators must communicate precisely andwith care to address the lack of positive student engagement. We refer to these communicationtechniques as rhetorical practices. Building on Perrault [10, pg. 64] who states that, “...rhetoricalknowledge is just

in their local context that can block the change theyseek to achieve. [Simply] adding ‘equity’ to the collective impact agenda is not enough. Organi-zations engaged in collective impact initiatives should first consider and act on how they need tochange within by applying an equity lens to their own people and practices” [14, p. 2]. This in-cludes navigating through the discomfort often experienced when discussing concepts associatedwith equity, such as racism and misogyny [38, 39]. Regardless of the uncomfortable conversa-tions that may arise, it is important to develop common language, as well as shared methods fordisaggregating student data [14] based on the demographic changes sought by the CI.3 MethodologyOur research questions were

Studies find that womenmust engage in certain practices and behaviors in order to prove that they are competent andprofessional members of the profession. For example, in one study by Heather Dryburgh, shefinds that female engineering students learn to adapt to engineering culture by accepting sexism,working hard in order to prove their competence, and by performing masculine behaviors, suchas acting tough. As she argues, this adds a layer of extra work for women who must learn topresent a confident image to be taken seriously as an engineer.

To probe these distinctions, our study, grounded in Social Cognitive CareerTheory (SCCT; Lent et al., 1994) and Critical Race Theory (CRT; Crenshaw et al., 1995),investigates the career pathways and attitudes of engineering graduate students. Leveraging adataset of 847 engineering graduate students, we examine differences across these threeengineering disciplines and the impact of demographic factors like race and gender on careerdecisions and attitudes. Findings suggest that clear demographic distinctions emerged at theintersection of race and gender: female students across all disciplines displayed a greaterpreference for nonprofit careers compared to their male

question asks, when students exertmicroaggressions on their teammates, what do they look like at scale so that instructors of largecourses can see them? Based on current data collection and analysis, our project’s original intentto provide instructors with observation tools to identify at scale when teammates are engaging inharassing behavior in order to interrupt it, seems insufficient and perhaps even damaging in howtrivial it treats the depth of engineering’s marginalization of minoritized students.Our paper briefly describes three current findings that lead us in this direction: 1. We see that teammates enact microaggressions and selective incivilities against their minoritized teammates frequently and predictably. 2. We see that

Thus, to the extent that studentswho struggle in engineering are disproportionately underrepresented students [3]-[4], it isimportant to examine all aspects of engineering education that could potentially weed thesestudents out, including assessment.Little research has been done to examine the effect of assessment practices on underrepresentedgroups in engineering. Oftentimes, underperformance has been thought of as a failure of thestudent rather than a product of inequities and harmful practices within the methods ofassessment and reporting themselves [5].

These two factors result in a need for faculty tostrategically create inclusive classrooms where students 1) are engaged in the field of studythrough application to their personal, social, and global knowledge contexts and 2) aredemonstrating proficiency on subject matter sufficient to demonstrate accreditation andprogrammatic requirements.

When we see differences in academic outcomes between Whitestudents and students of color, it is not an indication of an “achievement gap,” but rather anindication of the debt owed to groups that have been racially subjugated since the early days ofpublic education.
