on themusical bridges and seemed to be more engaged in the project than students in previous years.And females, in particular, seemed to prefer the musical bridges over a more traditional bridgeproject. The author plans to continue to use some variation on the musical bridge project forfuture solid mechanics courses. Questions, however, remain: did students find the musical aspectof the project more engaging or would another type of interdisciplinary project be just asengaging? Did the musical bridge project result is improved learning? Were students morecreative? Did their critical thinking skills improve? Future projects will attempt to explore thesequestions and more.ReferencesBarnard, S., Hassan, T., Bagilhole, B., Dainty. A. (2012
academic population, underrepresented and misunderstood.Early discussion at the board level in the mid 2000’s indicated a willingness for a paradigm shift.However, the representation of academics on the board and other leadership roles has beenlacking. This can be attributed to the lower numbers of this group relative to the whole, as wellas the requirements of tenure that do not support the time and dedication to such an endeavor. Asmall but influential group of members, including a former board member, and a few involved atvarious levels of the society have been working toward increasing opportunities for women inacademia (WIA).

The incentive behind this research project was to investigate whyso many construction degree programs at the college and university levels are either closing, orat a minimum not meeting the demand of industry by providing sufficient graduates for thepositions available, and why most high schools in the United States are no longer offeringconstruction type courses.

Programs were tasked to identify 1-2 dedicatedaccreditation or assessment coordinators who would then interface with program faculty,coordinate efforts at the program level and report back from the school level meetings. Facultywere chosen based on recommendation from the Chairs and/or self-selection following a call.The faculty ranged in rank from Assistant Professor to Professor. The school-level accreditationcommittee consisted of the program faculty coordinator(s) plus the department chairs, theschool-wide assessment coordinator and the Associate Dean for undergraduate studies.

identified the following benefits of the Queue system.Save time for both students and instructorsTime is at a premium for students, instructors, and staff. The Queue organizes both students andinstructors to maximize student learning when time is restricted.Group Formation and Peer LearningNumerous studies have shown the benefits of peer learning, but this can be challenging tofacilitate in large courses with several hundreds of students. The Queue allows students toidentify other students or groups who have the same or similar questions. This could be used tohelp students form small groups to discuss their question(s) and then work with an instructor.Similarly, the Queue could also be used to facilitate students answering other students

ConclusionIn this paper, we have discussed how to clean and process raw data using stop word filtration,tokenization, and lemmatization. We explored the data to discover some of its propertiesand to illustrate various characteristics of an insufficient comment versus a sufficient commentclassification. Finally, we trained two supervised machine learning classifiers, the MultinomialNaive Bayes classifier and a Random Forest Classifier using the bag of words model and TFIDFweighting. We were able to achieve a
