If the dean hasquestioned the process used, the divisional committee will determine if (a) the process followedthat written by the executive committee in their policies and procedures, and (b) if the executivecommittee’s process is in accord with the university’s PTR policy. If they find fault with theprocess, they will relay that information to the dean, who will typically ask the executivecommittee to redo the

Participants stated that theyreceived basic departmental training or campuswide drills such as fire extinguisher drill(FG#04-D), fire evacuation and hurricane evacuation drill (FG#02-A), and active shootertraining (FG#01-C, FG#04-C). Graduate students (FG#01-B, FG#01-D), indicated that theyreceived basic lab safety training as a requirement for their research activities.

for each question, below which a student would earn a zero on thatquestion. Hence, in order to maximize the total grade on an assignment, a student mustcontribute equally on all assignment questions.In case of heterogeneous teams, imagine a team comprises of two types of students : TypeA (High intrinsic motivation or Low effort cost) and Type B (Low intrinsic motivation or Higheffort cost). In this case, the challenge for the instructor is to design a policy that deters Type Bstudents from strategically inflating their contribution (moral hazard) or free-riding on Type A’sefforts. Similarly, the policy should also de-incentive Type A students from single-handedlyelevating the team grade. In this case, the likely equilibrium behavior is Type B

We explorethe political, economic, cultural and moral foundations of the research and engineering of crashtest dummy models in the automotive industry. The research question underlying this work in-progress is: how do representative models in engineering influence public affairs in the contextof safety in the automotive industry? Automotive safety for years has been known to rely oncrash test dummy models created in the 1950s that are modeled after the average male.
