Scioto County launches ‘Maiden
Voyage’ of the Senior Home Inspection Program at Shawnee
State University
Originally developed in Ross County, the Senior Home
Inspection Program designed to help senior citizens will now
be available in Scioto County.
Dr. Christine Raber, associate professor, Master of
Occupational Therapy program in Health Sciences at Shawnee
State University, worked with the team to assess the safety
needs of seniors. Students in the MOT program at SSU have
worked with SHIP in Ross County twice a month since October
2007.
The program will be offered in Scioto County in
collaboration with several agencies. The “Maiden Voyage” of
SHIP will be from 1:30 to 2:30 p.m. on Wednesday, June 17 in
the Appleton Gallery at SSU’s Vern Riffe Center for the
Arts.
The program is a voluntary service that provides a free home
safety inspection to identify features in your home that may
make a residence susceptible to burglaries, fires or
injuries because of falls. Different agencies will
collaborate to conduct the safety inspections and provide
information and free items to reduce household hazards.
Each member will check smoke detectors, flashlights, fire
extinguishers and also inspect the home for risk factors.
To schedule a free home safety assessment or to get
additional information about the SHIP program, call (800)
582-7277, ext. 140. To find out more about the event on June
17, call Kaye Inoshita at the number above or e-mail

Shawnee State
University graduate attends American Israel Public Affairs
Committee Policy Conference in Washington D.C.
Shawnee State
University 2009 graduate, Halea Hatten, president of the
Student Government Association, was invited to the American
Israel Public Affairs Committee Policy Conference in
Washington D.C. in May.
The
conference is the nation’s most widely-attended pro-Israel
event with more than half of the Senate, a third of the
House of Representatives and countless Israeli and American
policymakers and leaders.
The goal of AIPAC is to foster support of U.S. – Israel
alliance in the future and to teach students how to
strengthen the relationship between the two countries
through political involvement.
More than
1,000 high schools, undergraduate and graduate students from
all 50 states were invited to attend the all-expense-paid
conference. More than 193 SGA presidents attended the
conference.
“It was
amazing,” Hatten said. “The conference room was the biggest
room I have ever seen in my life. There were 6,000 people in
attendance and we didn’t even make a dent in the room. More
than 10,000 people attended the Gala Banquet.”
On Saturday,
the Gala Banquet featured Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu via satellite and talks by top leaders of both the
House and Senate. Throughout the conference, leaders from
the U.S. and Israel addressed the attendees including Israel
President Shimon Peres.
“All the
people who spoke talked about peace – they all want peace,”
Hatten said. “I think it’s important to support Israel in
its goal for peace.”
State Rep.
Bakari Sellers (D-SC), former Morehouse College SGA
president and AIPAC campus activist, providing the keynote
address one evening. When Sellers was elected in 2006 at the
age of 22, he was the youngest member of the South Carolina
General Assembly.
“He was
fascinating and encouraged all of us to go after our
dreams,” Hatten said. “I learned so much from the
conference.”
Vice
President Joe Biden gave the final address following Sen.
John Kerry (D-MA), who chairs the Foreign Relations
Committee.
“The trip was
wonderful,” Hatten said. “Just to be able to talk to the
other (SGA) presidents was wonderful. I did get out for
awhile. I have never walked so much in my life.”
One day while
touring D.C. Hatten ran into students from a school in
Oklahoma who recognized the Shawnee State name on her
sweatshirt.
“They
told me their principle went to Shawnee State,” she said.
“Graduates here go all over the United States and all over
the world and do great things. It made me realize that it
doesn’t matter how small you think you are, Shawnee State
just prepares you for such great things in life.”
Hatten will
be going to graduate school in the fall at the University of
Dayton and work as a resident coordinator. She was one of 10
students chosen for the position. The university will pay
all of her school expenses, housing and food.
“I would like
to get my doctorate and hope that one day I could return to
D.C. and teach at a university there,” she said.
Hatten graduated SSU with a bachelor’s degree in psychology
and a Deaf Studies certificate. In Dayton, she will be
working on a master’s degree in college student personnel.

The Cyber
Center at Shawnee State University travels in a virtual
world
The Cyber Center at Shawnee State University is expanding
its resources through a WIRED grant. The WIRED grant is from
the U.S. Department of Labor to develop information
technology and interactive digital technology skills for
students from high schools, universities and displaced
workers.
Three universities are connected through the WIRED grant,
Ohio University, Tuscarawas at Kent State University and
Shawnee State University. Initially, the grant was $400,000
and approximately $200,000 has been added.
“We work throughout Ohio Economic Division 7 with high
schools, career centers and community colleges connecting
with the Cyber Clubs,” said Janice Johnson, chair, assistant
professor in the Department of Business and assistant
director of the Cyber Center.
The center is collaborating with the Ohio Valley Interactive
Technology Alliance (OVITA) WIRED and two other Cyber
Centers in neighboring regions.
“We create projects and right now we have close to three
dozen projects that are being started, en route or already
finished,” Johnson said.
Some of the projects planned are building an AEP Power Plant
simulation in Second Life to use for public education and
AEP training, iPhone software applications, developing
online classes, and developing a Main Street Portsmouth
database and community service projects. Other projects are
working with Tech Prep and teaching high school teachers how
to set up a class in Second Life. One project that is
completed was a walking tour map for Main Street Portsmouth.
In a joint project with NASA Glenn Research, Ohio
University, JPL software, Trinity University (Dublin,
Ireland), Comnet (Espoo, Finland), and Viagenie (Canada),
the Cyber Center is simulating transmissions through space
for the purpose of developing an improved transmission
protocol system for Mars exploration and beyond. The Delay
Tolerant Networking research project (dtnBone) was organized
by Hans Kruse at Ohio University.
“We also provide resources. We talk to businesses setting up
paid internships for our students,” Johnson said. “The goal
is to give students skills and with the help of the grant,
the Cyber Center is providing the money for the
internships.”
The center is also developing online classes. The classes
started are Virtual World Applications and Web Software
Applications (Web 2.0) among others.
A Summer Interactive Media Intensives (SIMI) will offer
three-day and five-day workshops to help young people
explore their potential in a technology rich environment.
Digital video, digital photography, 3-D Design, electronic
music and an immersive media course focused on designing
giant images and surround sound for planetarium use will be
offered.
A SIMI three-day Digital Media Workshop is scheduled for
July 7-9 at Shawnee State. For more information, call (740)
351-3274 or e-mail mbarnhart@shawnee.edu.

Shawnee State University’s
Department of Education program earns a seven-year
accreditation
The National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher
Education has examined the Department of Teacher Education
program at Shawnee State University and given the program a
seven-year continuing accreditation.
“This is an outstanding accomplishment,” Dr. Rita Rice
Morris, SSU President, said. “Accreditation is an indication
of the level of quality education offered through our
programs.”
NCATE performance-based accreditation standards expect
institutions to develop evidence-based practice that
showcases and provides data on teacher candidates and other
educator knowledge and skills. SSU has performed well to
receive the accreditation.
“The Department of Teacher Education is so proud of our
entire university and regional educational community for
reaching this accomplishment,” said Dr. Paul Madden,
associate professor and chair of the Department of Teacher
Education. “National Accreditation and recognition for our
teacher education programs is a mark of distinction for the
university and for all the schools in our region that
support this most important work.”
SSU passed several NCATE requirements including providing an
assessment system that collects and analyzes data on teacher
applicant qualifications, performance and operations to
evaluate and improve the university and its programs. NCATE
also requires that faculty is qualified and model best
professional practices in scholarship, service, and
teaching, including the assessment of their own
effectiveness as related to candidate performance. The NCATE
system expects performance measures to include the
candidate’s impact on student learning.
A Board of Examiners made up of five people from throughout
the country, a faculty union member and one representative
from the Ohio Department of Education met on campus for five
days to determine eligibility of the university’s program.
“So many faculty, students, classroom teachers,
administrators and staff came together to show the Board of
Examiners what we do and why we deserve to be nationally
recognized as a high quality teacher education program,”
Madden said. “This truly was a collaborative effort among
the university and school partners.”

Shawnee State University
partners with Ohio University for a Choose Appalachian
Teaching program
Shawnee State University, along with Rio Grande University,
Marietta College and Muskingum College, has partnered with
Ohio University to build a community of science, technology,
engineering and math (STEM) teachers for southeastern Ohio.
Choose Appalachian Teaching (CAT) is a Choose Ohio First
Scholarship opportunity for future mathematics and science
teachers for southeastern Ohio. It is the state’s premier
model for recruiting and retaining talented Ohio residents
as students in the STEM education fields. The program is
part of the Ohio Innovation Partnership to advance Ohio’s
position in world markets in the areas of science and
technology.
“We are very happy to be part of this collaborative effort
to provide additional financial support for science and math
teachers,” said Dr. Paul Madden, associate professor and
chair of the Department of Teacher Education. “This is just
the kind of initiative that will help higher education
better meet the needs of our schools by preparing highly
qualified math and science teachers in greater numbers.”
The first round of competitive awards in 2009 is directed to
11 collaborations among colleges, universities and their
Ohio business and industry partners with a goal of advancing
Ohio’s position in the world markets including information
technology, healthcare, sustainable energy, engineering,
teacher education and science.
The scholarships will be used specifically to attract,
retain and graduate more than 1,700 new STEM students over
the next five years. The Choose Ohio First Scholarship
program started in 2008 with two rounds of scholarships
awarded providing the first $50 million in funding
throughout the state.
“I encourage anyone with an interest in math or science to
pursue this wonderful opportunity,” Madden said.
The CAT program at SSU will focus on inquiry and literacy as
a way to bring together efforts aimed at the needs of
learners in southeastern Ohio. With the addition of a strong
mentoring program for teachers through their first three
years, this program will produce the necessary STEM teachers
in a high-need area. The collaboration of colleges and
universities in southeastern Ohio will share $1 million in
Choose Ohio First Scholarship funds awarded by the state.
Individual tuition scholarships to Ohio students are in the
range of $1,500 to $4,700 per year. A scholarship recipient
must be a resident of Ohio, a STEM major, a first-generation
college student from Appalachian Ohio and others who commit
to teaching in this region. The Choose Appalachian Teaching
project prepares and supports these scholars to become
career-long teachers within the 173 school districts of
Appalachian Ohio.
For more information on the CAT scholarship program, contact
Madden at (740) 351-3547 or e-mail pmadden@shawnee.edu or
Dr. Jeff Bauer, professor and associate provost, at (740)
351-3421 or e-mail jbauer@shawnee.edu. Applications and

Shawnee State University instructors attend American
Occupational Therapy Association Conference in Texas
“We envision that occupational therapy is a powerful, widely
recognized, science-driven and evidence-based profession
with a globally connected and diverse workforce meeting
society’s occupational needs.” – Centennial Vision of the
American Occupational Therapy Association.
Two senior instructors in Occupational Therapy at Shawnee
State University recently attended a national annual
conference and expo of the American Occupational Therapy
Association in Houston, Texas.
Barbara Warnock, senior instructor for the Master of
Occupational Therapy program and academic field coordinator
for OT and MOT programs, and Kim Vicars, senior instructor
and program leader in OT, attended the national conference,
“Energy! Create it! Share it!”
The days were filled with institutes, seminars, lectures,
sessions, workshops, poster sessions and special interest
seminars at the conference.
Warnock had several goals at the conference which she
accomplished at the event.
“The choices were overwhelming,” Warnock said. “I teach
pediatrics so I wanted a stronger evidence-based practice on
feeding and research. We had several sessions on teaching
strategies, research skills and I did get information on
evidence-based feeding.”
Vickers wanted to bring back information about different
learning styles for students. It was her first experience
going to a national conference. She had wanted to go for 10
years. SSU’s Faculty Enrichment program enabled the two of
them to attend the conference.
“I went to a Generation Y seminar that talked about how
students learn who were born between 1980 and 2000 and how
they study as compared to the generation before,” Vickers
said. “It was very interesting.”
She also went to sessions on mental health components,
ethics and heard the history of occupational therapy over
the past 100 years.
“It was really nice to get supportive information to bring
back to our program,” Warnock said.

Shawnee State University artist
and security guard uses leaves to create a piece six-foot
piece of art
Thousands of pieces of orange, yellow, red, rust and brown
leaves create a leaf mosaic by artist Kevin Taylor, a
security guard at Shawnee State University.
Inspired by a
Florida family who had never seen the leaves change color,
Taylor created the work of art using leaves from the fall
season in Ohio. The wood he used for the backing and frame
was all recycled.
Taylor cut up
the leaves individually and placed them on the board
one-by-one, gluing each one carefully into a design that one
fellow artist called the “Rhythm of his (Taylor’s) soul.”
The title of his work is “The Promise of Change” and took
about 300 hours to finish.
Taylor’s
creation has just been accepted at the Ohio State Fair and
will be on display from July 29 to August 9 at the
fairgrounds, 717 17th Avenue, Columbus. An awards ceremony
is planned during the reception with awards ranging from
amateur awards of $100 to professional merit awards of
$2,000 for Best of Show with more than $10,000 in awards
presented to artists.
“I am
excited to be accepted,” Taylor said. “They have strict
guidelines to enter and that alone wasn’t easy. Everything
has to be perfect.”
Jurors select
more than 300 artworks representing artists around Ohio for
the show.
In the photo,
Kevin Taylor, security guard at Shawnee State University,
stands beside a leaf mosaic he created using all the
different colors of leaves in the fall. He cut each leaf
into tiny pieces and put them on a board creating this work
of art. His mosaic will be on display at the Ohio State Fair
from July 29 to August 9.

Nursing faculty retire at
Shawnee State University
After nearly 38 years working in the nursing program, first
at Ohio University Portsmouth and then at Shawnee State
University, Anna Gampp, associate professor of Nursing, has
retired.
“I remember
sitting at the graduation when Gov. Rhodes announced in his
commencement speech that Shawnee State Community and
Technical school was going to become Ohio’s newest
university,” Gampp said.
Gampp plans
to enjoy her grandchildren, work on numerous tasks around
the house that she hasn’t had time to do, and slow down her
pace.
Although she
will miss the students and the faculty and staff she has
worked with over the years, she also looks forward to this
new phase in her life.
“I thank God
for my time at SSU,” Gampp said. “As for my plans for the
future, I still don’t know what I am going to do when I grow
up.”

Nursing professor retires at
Shawnee State University
Professor Sharon Musser Scott has worked in the community
for the past 30 years and began teaching at Shawnee State
Community College before it became Shawnee State University.
She first worked at Scioto Memorial Hospital, Goodyear
Atomic Corporation and Mercy Hospital and began working in
nursing education in the fall of 1978.
Scott earned her master’s degree in Higher Education and
also earned a master’s degree in Nursing Science.
She was involved in a wide variety of educational, civic and
nursing activities in the Department of Nursing at SSU and
the community surrounding Portsmouth.
“The patients I cared for in nursing service were my
greatest inspiration,” Scott said. “Each student I was
fortunate to be in contact with was unique and brought forth
my best efforts to communicate my love of nursing and
learning the art and science of nursing. The wide varieties
of individuals and professionals I worked with added to my
knowledge and confirmed my belief that education and
experience are crucial components of society.”
Her primary retirement activities will center on Scott’s
family and home but other goals include travel, contra
dancing, learning the piano, civic and nursing work as well
as reading, sewing and quilting.
Scott has cruised the Inland Passage in Alaska, attended the
White Water Whirl in West Virginia and the May Apple Stomp
in Logan.
“I loved the opportunity
I had to work at Shawnee State University,” Scott said.

SHIP Launches New Program for Senior Citizens at Shawnee
State University
The Scioto County Senior Home Inspection Program (SHIP)
launched officially on Wednesday, June 17, at Shawnee State
University.
SHIP is a free home safety program to help Scioto County
Senior Citizens stay safely in their homes. It was first
introduced in Ross County by Lt. Dale Gillette who was with
the Ross County Sheriff’s Department.
“Not only do we provide home inspections, with the grant
funding we receive, we also install safety equipment,” said
Dr. Christine Raber, associate professor in the Masters of
Occupational Therapy program at Shawnee State University.
“For example, if we go into a senior’s home and they need a
working smoke detector, we will provide and install a smoke
detector and make sure it is operational. We’ll do the same
thing if they need a bath mat or a fire extinguisher and
many other safety devices.”
The inspections identify features in the home that may make
a home susceptible to burglaries, fires or injuries because
of falls. Qualified law enforcement officers, firefighters,
aging service professionals and occupational therapy student
interns will collaborate to conduct the safety inspections
and provide information and free items to reduce household
hazards.
Safety assessments and items include home lighting and lock
inspection, emergency beacons, carbon monoxide detectors,
batteries, power strips and flashlights. A fall assessment
and LTC Consultation will include nightlights, bathmats and
a Cold Facts vial that is a unique information system for
emergency workers who may need to come into the home.
Several agencies are involved in the program including
Portsmouth, New Boston and Scioto County Volunteer fire
departments, Portsmouth and New Boston police departments,
the Scioto County Sheriff’s Office, the Area Agency on Aging
District 7 Inc., the Scioto County Department of Job and
Family Services and Shawnee State University.
SHIP is funded, in part, by a grant from the Scioto
Foundation, and supported by the United States Enrichment
Corporation, Southern Ohio Medical Center and Keystone
Printing.
The program is offered to all Scioto County seniors, 60
years of age and older, without regard to income. To
schedule a free home safety assessment or for more
information, call Karen Wilcoxon at (800) 528-7277 or write
to her at the Area Agency on Aging District 7 Inc., 1644
11th St., Portsmouth, OH 45662.
