, 2021 Reflecting on 10 years of centralized engineering student diversity initiatives (Experience)0. AbstractThe IDEA Engineering Student Center at the University of California San Diego’s Jacobs Schoolof Engineering was established in 2010 to focus on engineering student diversity and inclusioninitiatives following a series of racially charged incidents affecting our campus’ Black students.From its inception, the IDEA Center aimed to focus on 1) outreach, 2) recruitment and yield, 3)academic success and enrichment, and 4) retention and graduation for underrepresented minority(URM) students. Through the lens of nonprofit organizational lifecycles, the IDEA Centertransitioned from Idea to Start-up to Growth

requirements. To date, two state licensing boards have debated M/30: Vermontin 2015 [4] and New Jersey in fall 2016 [5]. No states have yet changed theirrequirements.The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) has been the largest opponent toraise the bar. They host their own web site “licensing that works” to compile resourcesthat oppose education beyond a Bachelor’s degree as a pre-requisite for professionallicensure [6]. In a 2010 ASME survey, 63% indicated that changes in the educationalrequirements for PE licensure were not justified [7]. The membership of the AmericanSociety of Agricultural and Biological Engineers (ASABE) also largely opposed M/30(89.8% oppose, 8.8% for, 1.4% neutral; [8]).
