The White Papers
2025 White Paper Issue 02 – Reliable Mental Health
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is at the forefront of innovation in mental health care, offering promising solutions to enhance access, improve therapeutic outcomes, and support practitioners. However, its integration into mental health therapy raises critical questions about security, privacy, and ethical implementation. How can AI be effectively utilized to expand access while ensuring patient safety, data protection, and therapeutic reliability?
2025 White Paper Issue 01 – Plastics, Our Present, and Future
The widespread use of plastics and resulting waste across the globe makes it a highly important regional environmental and human health issue. Many global plastics consist of polymers with carbon–carbon backbones, whose environmental persistence and low cost have resulted in a massive reservoir of plastic waste that resides in landfills and the environment. Benefits afforded from the widespread use of plastics need to be reconciled with their negative risks to the environment and public health and their use as composite materials for construction.
2024 White Paper Issue 04 – AI Ethics
Ethics Guidance and Codes of Conduct: This topic has lots of crossover between sciences, environmental issues, infrastructure, policy, etc. Ethics are part of many professions from law, medicine, engineering, etc. What Guidance and Codes of Conduct need to be developed concerning the maturation of science and technology? Ethics are part of many professions from law, medicine, engineering, etc. Given the environment across the employment landscape from businesses to education, are there ethical standards commonly accepted as we advocate for more inclusion in STEM?
2024 White Paper Issue 03 – Educating the Future Workforce
According to the "Oracle of Omaha," AI has developed to the point where it is hardly possible to decipher what's real and what's fake. In fact, AI is now also used for detecting AI-powered deepfakes around the rapid proliferation of AI-powered scams. Tech giant Microsoft recently introduced an authenticator tool that can analyze photos and videos to determine whether they have been manipulated.

2024 White Paper Issue 01 – Inclusion in Forensic Careers
Forensic Science has importance because it applies science research in the development and practice of highly discriminating, accurate, reliable, cost-effective, rapid methods for the identification, analysis and interpretation of physical evidence. A yearlong study examining ethnic and racial diversity in forensic science has found that the varying disciplines, which frequently work closely with law enforcement, are also generally whiter than the U.S. population it serves.
2023 White Paper Issue 04 – Solutions to climate, water, and food challenges with science
The world faces a global hunger crisis of unprecedented proportions. We illustrate how to enhance the productivity of the current operations with science.
2023 White Paper Issue 03 – Is Digital Entertainment the Best Path to Digital Literacy
Digital entertainment innovation has demonstrated powers to complement, enrich and transform education. Certainly language, culture, and fashion have been influenced by the community of artists and their music (sic), but has the trend to incorporate digital platforms served as a pull through for students to become more interested in coding?
2023 White Paper Issue 02 – Time to Redesign Engineering
In May 1952, the president of the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE), S. C. Hollister, appointed a committee to look at the state of engineering education in the United States. The 1955 report, now commonly referred to as the Grinter Report, brought about a sea change in the training of engineers and became a foundational document for engineering education.
