The ADA defines disability for theindividual level as: a) a physical or mental impairment, b) a record of such impairment, or c)being regarded as having an impairment.3 Within the context of higher education, students areafforded “reasonable accommodations” to address such impairments, though these do notnecessarily equate to inclusion within the classroom.Donna Riley, a member of ASEE and professor at Virginia Tech, has already asked, “What doesit mean that in 2012 there was no expressed space for disabled engineers on this Island [ofOther], or elsewhere at ASEE?”4 when such a space exists for

These group sessions includecollaborative learning techniques such as: think-pair-share, jigsaw/clusters (smaller groups),learning cell, and round robin. SI leaders were assigned to target courses based on prior semesterDFW rates and professor willingness to have an SI leader.

According to the study, the mean GPAs forAfrican-American (2.15), Hispanic (2.39), and non-minority (white) (2.67) engineeringgraduates were compared. The results were alarming. For non minority (white) students, 45%entered with a B+ average, and 33% graduated with a B+ average. For Hispanic students, thenumbers were 46% and 18%, respectively. For African-American students, however, thenumbers were significantly different. Thirty-seven percent of African-American students enteredwith a B+ average, but only 5% graduated with a B+ Average.

Additionally, with PBF metricsaffecting state university funding, the pressures of reaching these set goals for each of the metricsbecome eminent. Hillman et al.

It is important to note thatwith more students in the 4+1 programs, universities can: a) increase the number of strategicdegrees produced and thus positively affect one of the set PBF metrics; and b) utilize theseprograms to retain talent by identifying top candidates for doctoral programs, which can increasethe number of strategic degrees awarded.
