theatre. If we reframe day-to-dayinteractions as offers, it’s easy to spot effortless ungenerous offers and their effects. We all knowthe feeling of being asked, “How was your day?” and reluctantly trying to create and edit asatisfying narrative of our day for another’s entertainment and edification; our return offer ismost frequently an uninspired “fine”.When we reframe ours’ and our students’ interactions together as offers, a litany of activelearning stumbling blocks take on new clarity. An excellent example of this was shared by Dr.Raquell Holmes, who led a group of four students to write a book on cell modeling over multiplesemesters. Intentionally, this project required a lot of stretching on the part of the undergraduategroups. They were

the purpose of major advising is to assist the student intheir journey from high school graduate to competent entry-level technical professional. Theexemplar advisor engages in dialogue with the student, providing a perspective of the academicprogram as a process of socialization into the profession, rather than a series of disconnectedcourse requirements.In other words, the advisor’s job is to help the students understand what it means to be anengineer. Rather than relegating the professional issues to the capstone project or the internship,it is the goal of the advisor to facilitate the student’s learning about what is the role of anengineer in society, why is the entire curriculum necessary to produce the kind of engineer theinstitution is
