Society for Engineering Education, 2021 Online Engagement and Outreach Activities in an ASEE Student Chapter during Turbulent TimesAbstractFollowing the shelter-in-place guidelines enacted across California in the early spring of 2020,many institutions transitioned nearly all student programming to online offerings. On the heels ofthe burgeoning public health challenge followed a long overdue reckoning with systemic andracial inequity catalyzed by George Floyd’s murder. In response, our ASEE Student Chaptermade major pivots in its mission to address both (A) the pressures and stressors students andeducators faced coupled with their desire for engagement and (B) the integration of anti-racistpedagogy into their engineering
