A possible project would be to collect rain water for drinking and hand washing at a school, combining engineering, public health, and education components. Since physical infrastructure is likely to be helpful only if there is also local capacity to maintain and operate it, we hope to contribute to developing that capacity. The rainwater collection system would be intended for use by Nicaraguan educators as a teaching tool to instruct children regarding data collection, water supply, and basic hygiene. Early lessons for children who will become future stewards of their natural and infrastructural resources could be

faced tough choices about in-person versus remote / online instruction andsafety protocols. And many institutions encouraged faculty to be more understanding withstudents – by accommodating absences and considering the challenges of learning in new ways[12-14]. While some question whether institutions’ motives were driven by finances, in manyinstances the upshot appeared to be calls for kindness. Kindness can be extended to all,regardless of the presence or absence of particular circumstances. In this paper the notion ofkindness and its place in higher education is examined. I will advocate for engineering faculty topractice kindness toward students, others, and themselves. By embodying kindness in theirpractices, faculty serve as role models
