sought to answer the following research question: How do EIF at HSIsdescribe their roles and responsibilities as instructional faculty? B. ParticipantsEIF are full-time, professional-track faculty who are evaluated primarily on their teaching [2]. Atfour-year institutions, these individuals are typically in non-tenure-line roles, while at two-yearcolleges they may have tenure-line roles. A total of 17 participants were recruited from six HSIs:two 4-year public universities (n= 7), two 2-year public colleges (n=5), and two 4-year privateuniversities (n=5) across the southeastern and southwestern regions of the United States.Table I below summarizes the institutional type, race/ethnicity, and pronoun distribution ofparticipants
are bettersupported in their programs. This paper also aims to identify the gaps in needed support and servicesdirectly from the students. Recommendations from the students are the stepping stone to re-evaluate thestudent need at the departmental and institutional level. Also, we believe some of our findings might haveimplications for other marginalized groups. To this end, this paper connects to the conference theme ofunderstanding inclusion, equity, access, and diversity to broaden participation focused on the issues suchas intersectionality of race and gender.

disability. Under this model, disabilityis viewed as a deficit in a person’s innate capabilities or an impairment that must be “fixed” toconform with normative values [3], [6], [7]. The medical model is exemplified by the legaldefinition of disability in the United States. Section three of the Americans with Disabilities Actof 1990 (ADA), defined disability, with respect to an individual, as “(A) a physical or mentalimpairment that substantially limits one or more of the major life activities of such individual;(B) a record of such an impairment; or (C) being regarded as having such an impairment.” [8].The medical model of disability remains a dominant discourse in the United States, guidingpublic opinion and driving professional practice [3

Wosu University of Pittsburgh Swanson School of Engineering, Pittsburgh, PAAbstract Effective mentorship is a key factor for driving success in completing a doctoralprogram or achieving tenure in the professoriate. The effectiveness of a mentor-leader inengaging and empowering mentees depends on the mentor’s ability to influence desiredattitudinal or performance character changes. This takes place through relational connections forinteraction of values, attitudes, behaviors, and principles that are nurtured, constructed, andpracticed, building and supporting a mentee-mentor cultural bridge to achieve the desired goal.The mentor and mentee
