Higher education institutions continue to struggle with student retention, career readiness, and underemployment among graduates. Traditional college advising models focus heavily on selecting a major, yet many students graduate with empty degrees that fail to translate into meaningful careers. In this episode of Changing Higher Ed®, Dr. Drumm McNaughton speaks with Scott Carlson and Dr. Ned Scott Laff, authors of Hacking College: Why the Major Really Doesn't Matter and What Really Does, about how institutions can rethink academic advising, faculty engagement, and student success strategies to better serve today's learners. Carlson, a senior writer for the Chronicle of Higher Education, and Laff, who has over 35 years of experience in college and university settings helping students design successful undergraduate experiences, discuss how universities can shift away from a rigid, major-centric model to a personalized student success framework. They explain how students who lack career clarity often end up in underemployment, taking jobs unrelated to their degrees. Their research shows that institutions must evolve their advising structures to help students identify vocational purpose, leverage experiential learning, and navigate the hidden job market. The Problem with Traditional Academic Advising The outdated focus on major selection leads students into rigid career paths, often misaligned with their strengths and interests. A one-size-fits-all advising model leaves first-generation and low-income students struggling to navigate the complexities of higher education. Limited faculty-student engagement prevents students from leveraging university resources and professional networks. Lack of career-aligned experiential learning results in students graduating without the necessary skills and industry connections. Revolutionizing College-to-Career Transition Carlson and Laff propose a new model where higher education leaders integrate career-focused advising and faculty mentorship into the student experience. This involves: Helping students explore hidden intellectualism—their deeper interests and skills that could shape their career trajectories. Connecting students with faculty and industry professionals to uncover career pathways beyond traditional job titles. Expanding experiential learning opportunities through internships, mentorships, and project-based learning. Teaching students to research the hidden job market to discover roles they might never encounter through a standard career fair. Institutional Strategies for Student Success For university presidents, boards, and executive leaders, improving student outcomes requires a fundamental shift in how advising and faculty engagement are structured. Institutions should: Encourage faculty to act as mentors, guiding students beyond coursework to explore real-world career applications. Train advisors to support students in creating flexible, goal-oriented academic plans that integrate experiential learning. Strengthen career services by building industry partnerships and embedding career readiness into academic programming. Utilize existing institutional resources—including government affairs, research opportunities, and alumni networks—to connect students with career pathways. The Hidden Job Market and Career Readiness Career exploration should begin early in a student's academic journey. Institutions must help students develop the ability to recognize opportunities beyond traditional job titles by: Encouraging proactive networking with faculty, professionals, and industry leaders. Teaching students to research and navigate the hidden job market, where many opportunities exist outside of standard recruitment channels. Expanding experiential learning options, such as internships and project-based coursework, to provide practical experience that aligns with evolving workforce demands. With AI-driven automation threatening traditional advising roles, institutions must act now to redefine how they support student career pathways. Colleges that fail to adapt will continue to see declining retention, underemployment, and dissatisfaction among graduates. Five Takeaways for University Presidents and Boards Be Open to Change – Institutions must actively remove barriers that prevent student success. The current advising model is failing many students, and colleges need to adopt a more flexible, student-centered approach that helps learners navigate their academic and career paths effectively. Preserve Academic Variety – Colleges are eliminating liberal arts programs due to financial pressures, but this limits students' ability to create multidisciplinary educational experiences. Institutions should strive to maintain a diverse academic landscape that allows students to explore various career pathways. Engage Directly with Students – University leaders should make an effort to understand student concerns firsthand. By informally engaging with students—whether in common areas or casual settings—presidents and board members can gain valuable insights into what students need to thrive. Empower Students to Take Ownership of Their Education – Instead of following rigid degree structures, students should be encouraged to design their own academic experiences by integrating coursework, experiential learning, and industry engagement in ways that align with their career goals. Advisors and faculty should support this by shifting from a prescriptive model to one that helps students think critically about their education. Rethink Institutional Priorities – Colleges can maintain their research and tenure agendas while also fostering a culture that encourages student success. Leaders should create systems that help students perceive higher education as an interconnected network of opportunities rather than a series of disconnected courses. Higher education institutions that fail to evolve will continue to see declining retention and job placement rates. Listen in as Dr. Drumm McNaughton, Scott Carlson, and Dr. Ned Laff explore how colleges can implement meaningful advising reforms to improve student success, institutional sustainability, and long-term career outcomes. Institutions looking for solutions to align their academic programs with evolving student needs should explore Academic Realignment and Redesign strategies.

Almost all colleges have a set of required courses for all students – sometimes called General Education or Distribution courses. They're designed to expose students to a variety of different subjects and disciplines. But what happens when that particular area or course is especially challenging for a student? How do they face this mandatory course that can seem so daunting?  Some students may assume or wish that they might receive an accommodation that will waive the course, exempt them from having to take it, or at least modify the course to help them be more successful. But that rarely happens.  In this episode Elizabeth and Vicki talk about how students can tackle these tough classes head-on. With the right strategies, such as sequencing courses carefully, engaging with professors, and seeking early tutoring, students can not only survive, but thrive in these challenging environments. We share practical tips for staying organized and proactive to overcome these potential academic hurdles.Thank you for listening!

In this special Halloween episode, we are joined by Dr. Keith Moser, professor in the Department of Classical & Modern Languages and Literatures. Dr. Moser researches 20th and 21st century French and Francophone literature, social and ecological justice, globalization, ecocriticism, and environmental philosophy, among many other important topics. As part of his research, Dr. Moser has become an expert in monster studies, and has designed a new general education class for students who may be interested in learning more. The class is titled “The American Horror Show: Understanding American Culture through Monsters." This episode highlights the new class as well as the subject of monster studies.

In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Angela Benton, assistant teaching professor in the Department of Biological Sciences, Dr. James Hardin, head and professor in the Department of Anthropology and Middle Eastern Cultures, And Dr. Manuel Roderio, assistant professor in the Department of Philosophy and Religion. These faculty members have all designed new general education classes for their discipline. These classes are true general education classes that anyone can take to learn about the subject, and they each focus on specific topics and are designed to engage students in new and interesting ways. The College of Arts & Sciences has designed nearly a dozen new courses like this for students to take.

Why do universities require students to take classes in the humanities during their first few years? Dr. David Horner, who has taught these classes for many years, helps us see the wisdom of requiring these courses, in light of the value they bring to the student who takes them seriously. Dave earned his master's and doctoral degrees in philosophy at Oxford University, is a professor of philosophy at Talbot School of Theology, and is the author of (among other books) the popular Mind Your Faith: A Student's Guide to Thinking and Living Well. In this podcast we discuss: How Dave got interested in studying the humanities How apologetics (defenses of the faith) helped him overcome a crisis of faith in college What the “humanities” are and how they relate to humans, being “humane,” and being a “humanist” Understanding a “College of Liberal Arts,” what a “liberal education” is, and how this relates to the humanities The structure of classical education, on which the “core curriculum” was historically based, and on which contemporary classical Christian education is based The interesting “border-line” cases of law and psychology How the “arts” and the “sciences” differ (it's not what most people think) Why students should be required to take core courses in the humanities The importance, in all fields, of learning to make good distinctions How to discern whether or not a specific humanities course is worth taking The connections between the humanities and wisdom An argument against the humanities--“They are so “impractical!” The critical distinction between “ends” and “means” in evaluating the value of the humanities The valuable role of the humanities in providing us with “cultural literacy” Why Christians should study non-Christians in literature, philosophy, and the other humanities Other practical benefits of studying the humanities, according to the CEO of a major corporation How to get the most out of your core curriculum courses The role a healthy campus ministry can play in your studies Why you shouldn't just learn about the humanities, but rather learn to engage in the humanities Resources mentioned during our conversation: David Horner, Mind Your Faith: A Student's Guide to Thinking and Living Well Stan Wallace, Have We Lost Our Minds?

"You're a dad of two, you became a dad, your children are little bit older now, they're adult children. And you call yourself the inclusive dad to help make the world a better place for your kids and for other kids as well who have disabilities." "If I do something small each day for inclusion, you do something small and we get that going, other people start doing it, it's just going to be a ripple effect to change the world." "There still is today. I see it all the time. Like there is a level of segregation within the schools where it's like, okay, well, we just need to teach this kid life skills versus teaching them math." "Just because you've always done it some way doesn't mean that's the right way." "She always loved music and choir, so she loved going to choir, being in concerts, doing all that good stuff."

In this episode, we discuss Autism and Education. We explore some current condition within education and some personal experiences. Specifically, the school day is in complete conflict with Autism- both Criteria A and B. This is the primary factor with the challenges of Autism in Education. The classroom requires a Social Dynamic, a Speech and Language Dynamic, and Sensory-Processing Dynamic, which is 3 strikes against Autism. In addition, the subject switching throughout the school day complicates our path of learning- Our learning style prefers spending extended times on a single subject. Autism gives us the ability to be comfortable within ourselves and this accelerates our learning, our Superpowers. School and the world mostly requires the social communication and interaction.Antipsychotics https://www.marketresearchfuture.com/reports/antipsychotic-drugs-market-2784#:~:text=The%20antipsychotic%20drugs%20market%20size,period%20(2023%20%2D%202030).Pediatrician and Psychologists on the Medical Paradigm https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/radically-genuine-podcast-with-dr-roger-mcfillin/id1573253801?i=1000624733618Autism and Education https://www.fhautism.com/shop/autism-and-education-the-way-i-see-it-what-parents-and-teachers-need-to-know/Thinking in Pictures https://www.grandin.com/inc/visual.thinking.htmlAutism and Intelligence and an Explanation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxNg0xcadsM&t=316s(0:00) Intro; Autism and Education; Are Educators educated on Autism?; Biases from others towards the environment(7:00) The Prescription Era; Medication first Paradigm(10:32) The School Day- Conflicts with Criteria A and B; Limits a Capacity to Think; Underlying thoughts and feelings of agitation and frustration when learning;(13:15) Autism gives us the ability to be comfortable within ourselves; Are we like the so-called normal people, or not?(13:39) The Classroom- Social Dynamic, Speech and Language Dynamic, Sensory-Processing Dynamic, 3 strikes against Autism;(14:39) Subject Switching and Criteria B conflict(17:14) If you have met one child with Autism, you have met one child with Autism(17:49) Elementary School, 2 reasons why Reading is HARD, Social dynamic experience;(23:07) 4th Grade personal experience- easy task from the outside, tremendous difficulty for Autistics;(27:00) Art was fine, other subjects were not fine; Details to General versus General to Details;(27:58) High School personal experiences; Pathway to Success > General Education;(29:52) Did I graduate, or Not?(31:56) SAT(32:43) Assessment Superpowers and Superdeficits- Very Superior to Severe/Impaired; Schools simply cannot accommodate to all- within group (Autistic to Autistic) or between group (Autistic to Masses)(36:34) Education Arrangement; Taking Notes is challenging(39:16) Wrap Up, Reviews, Ratings, Feedback, Contact Information

In this episode, you'll also hear:The importance of obeying God's call, even if you don't think you're qualifiedHow God supplied “manna” for Jeaninne during her writing journeyHow to write your story in a way that helps people connect with itWhy Jeaninne refers to writing as a ministryWhat kind of writers this world needs right nowJeaninne's advice on returning to your “burning bush” for renewal and motivation when the journey gets toughObeying the Call to LeaveIn her book Lessons from the Writing Wilderness, Jeaninne Stokes shares the story of leaving her full-time job to pursue a ministry in writing — or, as she puts it, “leaving the ‘Egypt,' if you will, of my career, journeying through the wilderness of preparation, and then finally entering my promised land to become an author.”Jeaninne says she truly loved her job at the time. So when she first heard God calling her to leave, she ignored the prompting for about a year. But God kept trying to get her attention. From an audible voice telling her it was time to go to the words “never be afraid to give up the good to go for the great” mysteriously appearing on her computer screen, the nudges from God became too obvious for her to continue ignoring them. Despite not knowing why God wanted her to leave her job — or what she was supposed to do once she left — Jeaninne obeyed. Now, she encourages others to be obedient to God's call, even if it doesn't seem to make sense. “God will not reveal anything else to you as to what He wants you to do until you take that first step of obedience,” she explains. “And that's what I had to do.”Preparing in the WildernessAfter taking that first step of obedience, Jeaninne found herself at home alone, uncertain of what to do next. But that alone time allowed her to ask God for guidance and to listen for His answer. “When you make yourself an available instrument,” she says now, “God will start speaking and making His plans known.”The first answer Jeaninne received was to get up at 4:00 AM every morning, go to her office, read the story of Moses and the Israelites, and write down the lessons she learned from it. Only after she obeyed this call did Jeaninne begin to understand the purpose for it. “God started speaking to me and saying, ‘I'm having you read this because you're going to be going on a similar journey. I've called you out of your Egypt and put you into the wilderness to prepare for a writing ministry,'” Jeaninne recalls. Although she didn't necessarily want to undergo this “wilderness” period of preparation, Jeaninne came to understand over time that it was necessary. “Before you can do anything great, you've got to prepare for that great,” she explains.For Jeaninne, preparation meant not only becoming a better writer, but also growing in her faith and learning to trust in God's provision and guidance. She didn't consider herself qualified for ministry, but as she continued to follow God's leading, He continued to provide exactly what she needed for each day — just as He provided food and water for the Israelites in the wilderness. Learning to Be VulnerableAlthough Jeaninne had written numerous devotionals, Lessons from the Writing Wilderness was especially challenging to write, because it required her to be more vulnerable and transparent in her writing than ever before. Sharing her personal struggles and hardships with the world was difficult — but it was also important.“I came to realize that people need to hear your story,” she says. “People connect with your story.” Through transparently sharing the story of her writing journey, Jeaninne has been able to help others who are going through similar “wilderness” experiences by offering them hope and encouragement.It was a difficult journey, but Jeaninne says that once her book was finished, she felt a strong sense of closure and relief. “I felt like I had given birth, and that I was now able to really go out and help other aspiring Christian writers,” she adds.Understanding the Ministry of WritingFor many people, ministry is something that happens from the pulpit of a church or out on the streets. But, as Jeaninne has learned, writing can be a powerful ministry as well. What's more, Jeaninne argues that writing is an essential ministry.“The world needs good writers,” she says. “The world needs people who are willing to write from God's perspective and not our own, in light of the hope and hurt and all that's going on in our world. God calls people He wants to use to write, to share His Word, to spread His gospel. And it took me a while to understand that if I'm doing that as a writer, then that is my pulpit.” As writers, we can share the good news of Jesus with a much wider audience than we might otherwise be able to reach. So it's vital that we obey God's calling on our lives and write the message He has given us to share with the world around us. After all, if He can use ordinary people to write the Bible itself, what might He use your written words to accomplish?Returning to the Burning BushMaybe you, like Jeaninne, have felt God tugging at your heart to pursue a ministry in writing, but you're hesitating to obey the call. If that's you, Jeaninne advises following the example of Moses. Go back to your “burning bush” moment and remind yourself that God has called you to do this — and He'll provide the ability and resources if you will just take that first step of obedience. “You're going to have your doubts, you're going to have your struggles,” Jeaninne says in closing. “But you have to go back to the burning bush, to remind yourself of the call that God has placed upon your life, and find a renewal there.” BIO:After beginning her career in higher education and on the trajectory to retire, Jeaninne's life was going the way she planned it until she heard the call to step away to prepare for a career in ministry as a Christian author and Bible-teacher. In 2002 Jeaninne answered the call. She took a leap of faith and left her career to prepare for a new career in ministry as a Christian author, speaker and Bible-teacher. After a season of preparation, in 2015 she founded JStokes Writing Ministries and began her writing ministry by publishing her first book, Living by Faith, a collection of inspirational poetry. Since the publication of her first book, she has authored four more books. Jeaninne has also written numerous devotions and articles and her writings have been published in Cross and Quill, The Christian Communicator, Harmony on the Go and Christian Woman Today Online. In 2009, she founded Inspiration for Living Ministries, her ministry platform where she walks out her calling as a Bible-teacher offering books, keynote messages and other inspirational resources to help people grow in their walk with the Lord.Combining her experience and background as a former educator and her passion to help others being called to the ministry of writing like she was called to do, in 2012 Jeaninne also launched Writing For Him, a ministry designed to help prepare aspiring Christian authors to write and publish for the Christian marketplace. Her service offerings include personal coaching, workshops and keynote messages for Christian writing conferences.Jeaninne's formal education includes a B.B.A in Business Administration from the University of North Texas and a M.Ed in General Education from Texas Christian University. She is a self-taught writer and her training to write professionally included attending numerous writing conferences, participating in several online classes, reading books on the craft, studying the writings of great Christian authors, and the daily practice of writing to perfect her craft.Jeaninne resides in Arlington, TX with her husband and two young adult children. In her spare time, she enjoys walking, reading, watching old movies, listening to old school music and rooting for her favorite professional football team. GET CONNECTED:Website: www.inspirationforliving.netTwitter: https://twitter.com/stokes_jeaninneFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/jeaninne.stokes

MDJ Script/ Top Stories for Dec 2nd       Publish Date:  Dec 1st     Commercial: Henssler :15   From the Henssler Financial Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.  Today is Saturday, December 2nd and Happy 44th Birthday to Nelly Furtado ***12.02.23 - BIRTHDAY - NELLY FURTADO*** I'm Dan Radcliffe and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Credit Union of Georgia.  Austell Man Arrested in Fatal Shooting at SW Atlanta Apartments Grand Jury Declined to Bring Charges in Police Shooting of Austell Man Cobb Commission Approves 11 New Mental Health First Responder Positions All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  BREAK: CU of GA  STORY 1: Austell Man Arrested in Fatal Shooting at SW Atlanta Apartments Kadeem Frison, a 33-year-old Austell man, has been arrested in connection with a fatal shooting that occurred two months earlier at the Hidden Pines apartment complex in southwest Atlanta. Frison faces charges of murder, aggravated assault, and possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime. The shooting took place on September 13, resulting in the death of a 49-year-old individual. Frison was apprehended by Cobb Police on November 25, then transferred to Atlanta police custody and subsequently to the Fulton County Sheriff's custody on November 27. Frison had previous charges for drug possession and other offenses in Cobb County. STORY 2: UPDATE: Grand Jury Declined to Bring Charges in Police Shooting of Austell Man Last year, a Cobb grand jury decided not to charge a Cobb police officer, Ian McConnell, in the shooting death of 28-year-old Devonte Brown. Brown was killed on August 18, 2021, after a car chase involving a stolen vehicle. The grand jury's decision was revealed after Brown's lawyers released body camera footage of the incident. The footage shows Officer McConnell firing 12 shots into Brown's vehicle after it collided with police cars. Brown's family and their attorney, Harry Daniels, condemned the shooting, claiming Brown was not a threat. Daniels plans to file a civil rights violation lawsuit and explore a wrongful death lawsuit. STORY 3: Cobb Commission Approves 11 New Mental Health First Responder Positions The Cobb Board of Commissioners has unanimously approved 11 new first responder positions as part of the Cobb Co-Responder Program, a collaboration between the Cobb Department of Public Safety and Highland Rivers Behavioral Health. This program aims to enhance the county's response to mental health emergencies by partnering police and fire personnel with case managers and clinicians to deescalate crises. The approved positions include two police officers, six sheriff's deputies, and three Cobb fire staff positions. These additions align with existing mental health programs within the Cobb Police Department and Cobb Fire and Emergency Services. The goal is to address mental health issues effectively and prevent unnecessary incarcerations. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

The historic building, which served as a factory since the late 1870s, was converted into loft apartments in the mid-1990s. Tribridge Residential, the owner, collaborated with interior designer Savannah Etzel to upgrade amenity spaces, expand the fitness center, and enhance the pool and outdoor areas. The renovations also included turning one outdoor space into a dog run. While preserving historic features like concrete floors, wood ceilings, and exposed brick walls, the makeover aims to offer modern comforts for residents. STORY 5: Georgia again collecting gasoline tax The temporary suspension of Georgia's gasoline tax, initiated by Gov. Brian Kemp in September, has expired. The state Department of Revenue will now resume collecting the 29 cents per gallon tax from motorists. The decision not to extend the suspension comes as fuel prices have dropped significantly, with Georgia currently having the third-lowest average price at $2.79 per gallon, according to AAA. Despite a substantial budget surplus, the state has opted to reinstate the gas tax due to the notable decrease in fuel prices. We'll be back in a moment  Break: DRAKE – INGLES 6 – Christmas at Piedmont STORY 6: 'An Academic Bridge': KSU and Chatt Tech Partner to Create Transfer Program Chattahoochee Technical College and Kennesaw State University have introduced a transfer program called LINK to facilitate a seamless transition for students moving from Chatt Tech to KSU. The program offers academic counseling at Chatt Tech, guidance through the transfer process, and financial support to ease the transition. Students completing 30 credit hours at Chatt Tech, equivalent to 10 General Education courses, will have their KSU application fee waived. Additionally, KSU students can apply their credits toward an associate degree at Chatt Tech through "reverse transfer." The program aims to enhance collaboration between the two institutions and benefit transfer students. STORY 7: Local Named a Social Justice Scholar at Penn's School of Social Policy & Practice Matthew Encarnación, a resident of Marietta, has been named a 2023-2024 Social Justice Scholar at the University of Pennsylvania's School of Social Policy & Practice (SP2).

Often, general education teachers feel unprepared and disconnected from the IEP process, especially at meetings. Let's explore three strategies to involve general education teachers more effectively in the IEP process without overwhelming them. Strategy 1: Ensure that the IEP's "supports for school personnel" section is checked and filled out inside the IEP paperwork. This box is frequently overlooked in IEPs or not used to its maximum potential. Strategy 2: Engage general education teachers in simple data collection. This doesn't require intensive one-on-one time but can be as straightforward as tracking skills using discreet methods. This involvement helps teachers feel a sense of ownership over the outcomes. Strategy 3: Include general education teachers in goal-setting for the IEP. Their perspective can provide valuable insights into the skills necessary for the student's current and future school environments, which leads to fostering more engagement and ownership.

On this episode, Kristen Collins interviews Boris Litvin on spectatorship, memes, and Rousseau. Kristen and Boris delve into the relevance of Rousseau's insights on politics and the public stage, relating them to today's social media-driven democracy. They explore the concept of "audience democracy" coined by Bernard Manin, which distinguishes between those in power and the spectators of politics. They discuss the complexities of spectatorship, its passive nature, surveillance, and the role of social media in shaping political discourse and authenticity. They also examine how video technology, like body cams and bystander videos, impacts power dynamics and public scrutiny, highlighting the need for active participation alongside spectatorship for meaningful democratic change.Boris Litvin is a Visiting Instructor, Ancient Studies and General Education at Eckerd College. His research interests include intellectual history, democracy, spectatorship, political representation, authority, rhetoric, media, and textual interpretation.Read more work from Kristen Collins.References and related works to this episode: Bernard Manin's The Principles of Representative Government, Jeffrey Edward Green's Eyes of the People" Democracy in the Age of Spectatorship, Nadia Urbinati's Democracy Disfigured: Opinion, Truth, and the People and Me the People: How Populism Transforms Democracy, Boris Litvin's "'This Hearing Should Be Flipped': Democractic Spectatorship, Social Media, and the Problem of Demagogic Candor" and "Staging Emile".If you like the show, please subscribe, leave a 5-star review, and tell others about the show!

Last week, I was talking to my colleague who was so overwhelmed by all the questions and comments coming from the regular education teachers and frankly, the unwillingness of some to pause and take the situation in for what it was. We chatted a bit and calmed down, but a part of me was still dissatisfied. Sometimes, EL teachers are spread so thin or work in isolation that all of our knowledge is impossible to share in an effective way with those who could really benefit from it. So I wanted to record a short episode that addresses the frustrations of teachers who have ELs in their general education classroom, answer some of the questions, and share the essential truths. Whether this is your first time having an English learner in your content classroom or you're more experienced, in this episode, I will share 3 essential truths that are valid anytime an English learner joins your classroom community. These truths are simple yet very powerful and will serve as your signpost whenever you feel unsure. I hope you find this episode useful.What you will hear about in this episode:Frustrations and Questions About EL Students in Regular Education ClassroomsConnection over curriculum comes firstKnowing the proficiency level of EL studentsEnsuring assessments are appropriate for EL studentsShow Notes:Episode 86  - Here Are Your 3 Essential Truths to Reaching ELs in General Education ClassroomResources Mentioned:The ESL Teaching Roadmap – membership community for middle and high school ESL/ELL teachers.

Taiwan New Cinema (first wave, 1982–1989; second wave, 1990 onward) has a unique history regarding film festivals, particularly in the way these films are circulated at major European film festivals. It shares a common formalist concern about cinematic modernism with its Western counterparts, departing from previous modes of filmmaking that were preoccupied with nostalgically romanticizing China's image. Through utilising in-depth case studies of films by Taiwan-based directors: Tsai Ming-liang, Zhao Deyin and Hou Hsiao-hsien, Tsai discusses how Taiwan New Cinema represents a struggling configuration of the ‘nation', brought forth by Taiwan's multilayered colonial and postcolonial histories. Taiwan New Cinema at Film Festivals (Edinburgh UP, 2023) presents the conditions that have led to the production of a national cinema, branding the auteur, and examines shifting representations of cultural identity in the context of globalization.

Taiwan New Cinema (first wave, 1982–1989; second wave, 1990 onward) has a unique history regarding film festivals, particularly in the way these films are circulated at major European film festivals. It shares a common formalist concern about cinematic modernism with its Western counterparts, departing from previous modes of filmmaking that were preoccupied with nostalgically romanticizing China's image. Through utilising in-depth case studies of films by Taiwan-based directors: Tsai Ming-liang, Zhao Deyin and Hou Hsiao-hsien, Tsai discusses how Taiwan New Cinema represents a struggling configuration of the ‘nation', brought forth by Taiwan's multilayered colonial and postcolonial histories. Taiwan New Cinema at Film Festivals (Edinburgh UP, 2023) presents the conditions that have led to the production of a national cinema, branding the auteur, and examines shifting representations of cultural identity in the context of globalization.

In this episode Garth interviews Melissa (Missy) Beers from the Ohio State University in Columbus, OH – for our first Part 3 episode on PsychSessions. Missy first recounts her career path, from graduate school to business and industry, then government, then research, then back to higher education. She teaches as an adjunct faculty member for a while and then steps into the Director of Introductory Psychology at Ohio State. With redevelopment of the general education curriculum in 2016, Missy was a key player on the Implementation Committee, foreshadowing the future.  Missy now directs the “bookend courses” in the gen ed curriculum, about 500 course sections serving about 10,000 students annually. And then there is the assessment conversation, universal design, pedagogy, and inclusion. The interdisciplinarity of the future is now.  

An address given by Kurt Fertig delivered May 2, 2023. He teaches Political Science and American History courses and is currently a Program Chair in General Education at Ensign College.
