Sample TTCI ItemAn engineering student walking barefoot (without shoes or socks) from a tile floor onto acarpeted floor notices that the tile feels cooler than the carpet.Which of the following explanations seems like the most plausible way to explain thisobservation? a. The carpet has a slightly higher temperature because air trapped in the carpet retains energy from the room better b. The carpet has more surface area in contact with the student’s foot than the tile does, so the carpet is heated faster and feels hotter. c. The tile conducts energy better than the carpet, so

Importantly, in the outlying case of Georgia Tech, recruitment was not anADVANCE objective; instead the main focus of the grant was on building women’s leadershipcapacity. While the net loss of female faculty at junior level may indicate a weakness inrecruitment efforts during the 2001-2006 period, it does not imply a major weakness in theoverall institutional transformation strategy which may yield very promising results in the long
