engineering education scholars to feel supported and makestructural and institutional change in higher education (see [6]). As we note in an upcomingpublication : “distinction [segregation within and between disciplines] removes individuals fromeasily creating collaborations within their discipline, and even has the ability to create a dividebetween subdisciplines.” This institutionalization of individualism within the academy, whichBennett [7] elucidates can then have the ability to facilitate faculty isolation.Similarly, while not focused on the field of engineering, Leslie D. Gonzales’ [8] work onepistemological boundary-making shows clear examples of how women, specifically women ofcolor, subvert boundaries and establish their own ways of knowing

Be- fore coming to UM in 2016, Cech was a postdoctoral fellow at Stanford’s Clayman Institute for Gender Research and on faculty at Rice University. She earned her Ph.D. in Sociology from the University of California, San Diego and B.S. degrees in Electrical Engineering and Sociology from Montana State Uni- versity. Cech’s research seeks
colleagues to develop role-playing games teaching engineering within its complex humanistic context.
