’ perceptions of how they are positioned in relation to school’s definitions ofsmartness impact their longer-term interest and affiliation.Problematic perceptions of smartness have critical consequences for K-12 engineering. Manystudents and teachers have limited understanding of engineers’ work. For instance, some think ofengineering as more of a vocational career (e.g., people who train to be mechanics to work oncars or machinery)4. Others consider engineers as those with unusual skill and talent inmathematics and science versus those who have considerable creativity, ability to work well withothers, and communication skills5. Other literature points to “nerd” and “academic-achiever”identities as gatekeepers among student engineers at the university

campusIntroductionThe demographics of students pursuing an undergraduate college degree within an urban-basednon-residential campus setting are remarkably different from those attending a traditional,residential campus. This is because not only does the student population reside almost entirelyoff-campus – scattered throughout a typically large, metropolitan area – but it often consists of agenerous portion of nontraditional students. Both of these defining characteristics present a“double edged sword” conundrum for the undergraduate college program. On the one hand, theypresent distinct attributes: the nontraditional student can enrich a classroom with his/her diverselife perspectives and career experiences. The non-residential student won’t be distracted by
