Themapping process has helped the team to better understand the change model and to highlightareas in need of strengthening. 2 Figure 1: Project StructureFaculty members designated “AGEP Fellows” are at the core of the project. Each participatingdepartment nominates a faculty member to serve as a Fellow for a two-year term. The Fellowsmeet monthly on their home campuses and attend semi-annual Alliance-sponsored workshops onsuch topics as the URM doctoral student experience and culturally responsive mentoring.

CASE STUDIES FOR Too Black to be Woman and Too Much Woman to be a Man: Best Practices from Black Women Persisting through Doctoral Engineering and Computing Programs Case Study #1: Black EyesHow does your race impact your experience in your doctoral program?My race impacting my experience in this department is huge because not only am Ithe only Black PhD candidate in Computer Science in the history of this school,there’s only been five other black students who have graduated from thisdepartment. Knowing this makes me think more about the school and why it beenso difficult for the staff here to recruit other students like me.

Graduate Student Steering Committee at the University of DelawareAbstractThe University of Delaware (UD) has had an active Women in Engineering (WIE) program sincethe early 2000s. The goal of WIE is to foster a warm climate in which all members of theCollege of Engineering feel welcomed and can be productive. WIE activities have evolved overthe years, but in the last decade most of the programming has been planned and executed by theWIE Graduate Student Steering Committee. Sponsored by the dean of engineering and overseenby an associate dean and faculty advisor, the committee is made up of two women graduate-student representatives from each of the seven engineering departments. The committee planssocial, networking, and
