programs now have an obligation to educate students for this learningoutcome. Compliance with statutes such as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Title IX ofthe Education Amendments of 1972, and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 all requireparticular actions from us as educators in ensuring equitable and accessible learning and workingenvironments on our campuses. Such compliance is also required as part of most professionalcodes of ethics. These rules are established to protect particular rights held by individuals.More broadly, (most of) our engineering ethics codes further require us to “hold paramount thehealth, safety, and welfare of the public,” 34 which would imply a duty to uphold this principle forall groups.

University in the Industrial and Man- ufacturing Systems Engineering Department. He graduated in 1999 from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign with a PhD. in Industrial Engineering in the Human Factors Program. His research interests focus on human factors, human-computer interaction, and adaptive systems that enable people to be effective in the complex and often stressful environments found in aviation, military, robotic, and space applications. His teaching methods include team projects and the application of team-based learning methods into the classroom.Cassandra DoriusJane Rongerude PhD, Department of Community and Regional Planning, Iowa State University Jane Rongerude is an assistant professor in the
