AB  - Greater attention has recently been put towards improving the experiences of people from marginalized groups pursuing graduate degrees in engineering. In response to a call from the National Science Foundation to establish a center for equity in engineering, a collective, named PROTEGE, focused on organizational change at the graduate level is being established. One of the guiding principles for PROTEGE is to empower graduate students. This principle is motivated by community engagement, where by involving community members in the decision-making and outcome-production process, they can feel more invested in the results of the work and feel a sense of ownership in the outcomes of the initiatives. However, PROTEGE recognizes the tension between not wanting to overburden marginalized students and needing to have their involvement according to the principles of community engagement. Advancing equity work regularly comes at the expense of graduate students themselves, especially those that come from marginalized communities. Equity work and the emotional burdens produced by doing said work often go unnoticed and uncompensated within academia. The purpose of this paper is to present the initial plans for exploring how to shift more power to graduate students through community engagement so that graduate students will have a voice within PROTEGE.
