Several years back, I discovered I had two sisters and a brother on my birth Mother's side. I discovered this years back after researching and meeting up with my birth Mother while in my 20s and 30s. See, I was adopted at a couple of months old, coming from what Peggy, my birth Mother, led me to think were her many children all given up for adoption. I am the only known sibling to meet Peggy over the course of many years. During that time, I had no idea about my sisters until 2014, when a new Ohio law opened up birth records. This paved the way for two of my siblings to be located. A couple of years later, Andrew's daughter found me and Katie, my one sibling, through a DNA match online. Join me Thursday as I chat with my brother Andrew, who has had an amazing life serving his country as a member of the National Guard and his community as a firefighter. We'll discuss what service means to him, how we found one another as adults so many years later, and what it feels like to be reunited with siblings you never knew existed. Andrew Scott Monnin was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1978, two years after I then raised in Toledo and Columbus. He ran Cross Country in High School, then received a two-year associate degree from Hocking College in Nelsonville, Ohio, Military Emergency Medical Services. From that point, he worked as a firefighter and EMT for Harrison Township Fire Department in Dayton, Ohio, Oct/1999 through 2007. In 2007, he moved to Colorado and joined the Wyoming Army National Guard in March 2008. In 2011, he deployed one year to Afghanistan with Wyoming Cowboy DUSTOFF, and served with 10MTN and 82Airborne CAB. Andrew was awarded two Air Medals while deployed and later hired by the Thornton Fire Department in February 2012 as a Firefighter Paramedic. In Jan 2019, he returned to Afghanistan with Wyoming Cowboy DUSTOFF as Platoon SGT, and served with 1ST Armored Division CAB. While there, he was awarded one Air Medal.In 2021, he transitioned from FF/Paramedic to an Engineer/Driver at Thornton Fire Department. In January 2022, he was promoted to 1SG at the Wyoming Army Guard Unit.He is married to a wonderful wife who continues to moonlight as ER nurse. He has three children, Jordyn 24, Asher 12, Brayden, who is 10. They enjoy running, bike riding, snowboarding and the Colorado Sunshine.Visit my website: https://thehello.llc/THERESACARPENTERRead my writings on my blog: https://www.theresatapestries.com/Listen to other episodes on my podcast: https://storiesofservice.buzzsprout.comWatch episodes of my podcast:https://www.youtube.com/c/TheresaCarpenter76

The Hoosiers sealed it with a steal on Michigan’s final possession. Indiana scored the first six points in overtime then held on to clinch a double bye into the Big Ten Tournament quarterfinals. Hunter Dickinson led the Wolverines with 24 points and 14 rebounds but missed a shot that could have won it in the waning seconds of regulation. Kobe Bufkin had 19 points for the Wolverines. NHL – National Hockey League Last Night Philadelphia Flyers 3, Detroit Red Wings 1 Flyers 3, Red Wings 1 – Deslauriers, Cates lead Flyers past Red Wings 3-1 Nicolas Deslauriers, Noah Cates and Scott Laughton scored goals for the Philadelphia Flyers and Carter Hart stopped 24 shots in a 3-1 win over the Detroit Red Wings. David Perron scored his 16th goal for the Red Wings and Ville Husso had 34 saves. Deslauriers and Cates both scored in the second period. Flyers forward Brendan Lemieux made his debut after he was acquired from the Los Angles Kings in a trade deadline deal. General manager Chuck Fletcher did not make any major moves. Flyers brought signs and wore shirt encouraging the team to fire Fletcher. Tonight Ottawa Senators at Chicago Blackhawks, 9:00 p.m. NBA – National Basketball Association Last Night Indiana Pacers 125, Chicago Bulls 122 Pacers 125, Bulls 122 – Haliburton’s 3-pointer pushes Pacers past Bulls 125-122 Tyrese Haliburton scored 29 points, including a 3-pointer with 2.7 seconds left, to give the Indiana Pacers a 125-122 victory Sunday over the Chicago Bulls. Haliburton’s game-winning shot occurred after Zach LaVine missed a free throw that would have given the Bulls the lead with 22.6 second left. LaVine, who scored a game-high 42 points, was fouled on a 3-point attempt by Bennedict Mathurin and converted the first two free throw tries. After Haliburton’s 3-pointer, a game-tying shot attempt by Nikola Vucevic bounced off the rim. Mathurin added 17 points for the Pacers (29-36), while DeMar DeRozan scored 23 for the Bulls.

In a statement, the commissioner’s office says its investigation included interviews of more than 15 people, including Clevinger and a woman who said she is the mother of Clevinger’s child, as well as thousands of electronic communications and other documents. Clevinger has voluntarily agreed to submit to evaluations by the joint treatment boards under the CBA and to follow any recommendations. Tennis – Djokovic withdraws after failed bid to play Indian Wells Top-ranked Novak Djokovic has withdrawn from the upcoming BNP Paribas Open after losing his bid to enter the United States unvaccinated to play in the Southern California event. Play in the combined ATP-WTA event begins Wednesday at Indian Wells Tennis Garden and runs through March 19. Djokovic had requested a vaccine waiver to enter the U.S., but Homeland Security denied it. The U.S. is ending its COVID-19 emergency declaration on May 11, which is too late for Djokovic to play at Indian Wells and Miami. EPL – Biggest loss in 90 years for Man U in 7-0 rout at Liverpool Liverpool has brought Manchester United crashing down to earth with a stunning 7-0 rout in the Premier League at Anfield. It was United’s worst competitive defeat in more than 90 years. Cody Gakpo, Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah struck twice and Roberto Firmino scored the other with six of the goals coming in an explosive second-half performance. The score also eclipsed Liverpool’s previous best victory against United, which was a 7-1 win in 1895. Liverpool took advantage of losses for top four rivals Newcastle and Tottenham on Saturday to strengthen its own bid to qualify for the Champions League. Golf – PGA – Kurt Kitayama breaks through in wild finish at Bay Hill Kurt Kitayama kept finishing one shot behind the game’s best players. He beat them all at Bay Hill on Sunday for his first PGA Tour victory. Kitayama made a triple bogey on the ninth hole to let everyone back into the Arnold Palmer Invitational. And then he beat them with a clutch birdie putt on the 17th hole, and a 50-foot lag putt to an inch for par on the 18th. He finished with a 72 and a one-shot win over Rory McIlroy and Harris English. Jordan Spieth, defending champion Scottie Scheffler, Patrick Cantlay and Tyrrell Hatton were two behind. NASCAR – William Byron wins at Las Vegas as Hendrick dominates William Byron took the lead on the second-to-last lap of overtime to win the NASCAR Cup Series race at Las Vegas and put an exclamation mark on a dominant day for Hendrick Motorsports. The top three drivers were from Hendrick, with Byron beating teammates Kyle Larson and Alex Bowman. Bowman won last year’s March race at Las Vegas. This is Byron’s fifth career victory in his six seasons. He led 176 laps and won both stages. IndyCar – Marcus Ericsson wins rough IndyCar season-opening race Marcus Ericsson outlasted the carnage on the downtown streets of St. Petersburg for a surprise victory for Chip Ganassi Racing. It was the fourth career IndyCar victory for the Swedish former Formula One driver. But it was a messy opener in which Jack Harvey was taken to a hospital for observation. Helio Castroneves needed an ice pack and X-rays. A pair of cars went airborne, the leaders crashed each other and the entire Andretti Autosport fleet was eliminated.

The rule of law is the principle that no one is exempt from the law, even those who are in a position of power. When an officer-involved shooting or use-of-force incident occurs, the way in which the investigations are conducted is critically important to both law enforcement and the communities we serve. It can be the difference between the community having faith in the investigation – that it will be free of bias – and the community losing all trust in the system. On this episode of the Blue View, National FOP President Patrick Yoes sits down with Mark Kollar. Mark currently serves as a special agent supervisor for the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation – the investigative arm of the Ohio Attorney General’s Office. In this capacity, Mark oversees the quality control aspects of the use-of-force investigations conducted by bureau investigators statewide, including policy development, training, task force operations and outreach initiatives. ⬛️ ⬛️ ⬛️ WATCH THIS EPISODE ➡️ https://youtu.be/MnTiDL3Ommo ⬛️ ⬛️ ⬛️ Mark Kollar currently serves as a Special Agent Supervisor for the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation – the investigative arm of the Ohio Attorney General’s Office.

Interview with Dr. Betty Young, President, Hocking College

SHOW NOTES INTRODUCING AUSTIN ROSE! An officer position in the FFA that I have been running into lately is that of chaplain.  In all of my FFA interviews, this is a position that I have run into possibly five times.  I am always fascinated when I hear of a student serving as their chapter's chaplain.  In today's world there is so much sensitivity about religion and the separation of church and state that I can't imagine there being a pre-existing position of chaplain that has to be filled every year.  Rather, it seems to me that when a student comes along with a strong belief system and wants to serve in this way, the position is probably opened up.  Either way, it takes courage by the FFA chapters that have this position, and I commend them. Our guest today, Austin Rose, served in that exact capacity.  He was the chaplain for the Southern High School FFA chapter in Racine, Ohio.  To him, it just came naturally as he has been a person of faith for his entire life.  When Austin describes what he did in this position he talks about leading groups of adults in prayer before the beginning of meals and events.  It really is a calling, and Austin seems to take to it very well. Austin and his family have a farm in Ohio where they raise polled Hereford cattle.  In addition to that, Austin has been able to work in a greenhouse developing knowledge on the other side of agriculture, raising plants.  Austin graduated high school at the end of the last school year.  He is very interested in heavy machinery.  He happens to live in coal country, and this, coupled with his interest in heavy machinery is fortuitous. Austin is now studying all about heavy machinery at Hocking College in Nelsonville, Ohio.  He is looking forward to a career in the coal industry working on the machinery that interests him so much.

Department's website: Austin's FFA Advisor's Email Address: jenna.meeks@southernlocal.net  Southern High School's Telephone Number: 740-949-2611 FFA LINKS: National FFA Organization Supervised Agricultural Experiences (SAE's) Support FFA  Donate to FFA - One way that FFA students are able to start small businesses is through an FFA grant of $1,000.  In 2014, 141 FFA students received these grants.  With your donations, more students can get this head start - pay it forward. REASONS TO DONATE TO FFA: Only 2% of Americans grow and raise most of the food and livestock consumed by the other 98% as well as the rest of the world.  FFA is providing the needed education, training and resources to Americans that will carry that torch forward and insure that America continues to have inexpensive, quality food. Rural Communities will rely on entrepreneurship in the future for population growth and job creation.  The FFA is a major catalyst to that entrepreneurial growth. Farmers, ranchers and those working in agriculture give the rest of America incredible amounts of freedom because the search for food is as simple as going to the grocery store: “The future of American agriculture depends on the involvement and investment in America’s youth, In order to prepare for the population of tomorrow, we need to encourage America’s youth today, and show that careers in agriculture are profitable, rewarding, and vital.”.

Madi Stump, a BGSU student and winner of the ICS Student Research Award, and Chris Gajewicz, Natural Resources Coordinator for the City of Bowling Green, discuss environmental stewardship, human's relationship to nature, and restoration in local parks.   Transcript: Intro: From Bowling Green State University and the Institute for the Study of Culture and Society. This is BG Ideas. Intro Music: I'm going to show you this with a wonderful experiment. Jolie Sheffer: Welcome to the Big Ideas podcast, a collaboration between the Institute for the Study of Culture and Society and the school of media and communication at Bowling Green State University. I'm Jolie Sheffer, associate professor of English and American culture studies and the director of ICS. Today, I'm joined by two guests, Madi Stump and Chris Gajewicz. Madi's an undergraduate environmental policy and analysis major who's currently working on a research project entitle, "Listening and Learning: Lessons from the Land." She's the first winner of the ICS Student Research Award. Chris is the natural resources coordinator for the city of Bowling Green and instructor at Bowling Green State University and a BGSU alum. Welcome, Madi and Chris. Chris Gajewicz: Hi. Jolie Sheffer: Thanks for being with me. How did each of you get interested in thinking about different ideas of environmental stewardship? Madi Stump: I've always cared really deeply about the environment. Growing up, I spent a lot of time in my backyard or in my front yard or my neighbor's front yard pretending to make pizzas out of dirt and grass and just really spending more time outside than I did inside. I remember being called in for dinner and being called in to do homework rather than being told to get out and enjoy being outside. That deep love and that deep connection to being outside that I experienced throughout my childhood made me really invested in protecting the environment, but when I first came to BGSU, I was actually a music performance student. So I didn't study the environment initially in college, but after my first year, decided that music was not the path for me and really rekindled that relationship with nature and that deep sense of connection and belonging that I felt in nature and have this strong desire to protect places that other people could have that similar experience of belonging and inclusion in the natural world. That's how I found environmental policy and I'm looking to continue this work in my future. Jolie Sheffer: What about for you, Chris. Chris Gajewicz: It started a long time ago when I was a little, little kid and I spent a lot of time outside, very similar to Madi. I was outside a lot and the only rule was is that when my mom rang the bell, it was time to come in and it was a big farm bell and she would ring the bell and no matter where you were, you needed to stop what you were doing. It was really hard for me because I loved going out into the woods and building forts and digging trenches and making caves and lighting things on fire and just being like a typical kid and spending my time just being out around nature. I just enjoyed it so much and I didn't even know why. It wasn't a conscious kind of a thing. It was there. We had a huge woods behind our house that was about a mile square and that was my playground as I was a kid growing up. So I was able to kind of run around out there. Chris Gajewicz: My parents never worried about where I was, what I was doing when I was coming home. I just knew that when the bell rang, I needed to stop what I was doing and make my way back. But there was never a concern about my wellbeing or any of that when I was growing up being outside. So that sort of turned itself into going from, I guess a vocation or an advocation to a vocation and turning it into something more. By the time I was headed off to college, I realized that I wanted to be a teacher in the environment and I felt that that was a really important way to share knowledge. There was a professor I had when I was at Hocking College and she was very good at kind of laying it down. She taught us how to be an educator in the environment. Chris Gajewicz: But she said, "It doesn't really matter how much you know and how much you have inside your head. If it never comes back out of your head to other people, then it's basically dead knowledge. Once it's dead knowledge, other people have to start from scratch." I learned at that moment, that being a teacher, taking that information and being able to tell the story about that information was a really good way to hook somebody in the environment. Hopefully, over the past 30 or so years of being involved in the environment from when I was a teenager myself and now, I've had the opportunity to really help other people kind of grab onto a reason to be in the outdoors. Jolie Sheffer: What does it mean to you to have a relationship with land and with nature? Why is that important to you, Madi? Madi Stump: I think in general, having a relationship with land, with nature, with the more than human or non-human world means caring about it. I think that's the fundamental level is having a deep sense of care and love for what is not human. That relationship can look very different to a lot of people, but the commonality is that there's some sense of care or spiritual or religious affiliation connection or even a recreation connection with the land. But that care of there is something that I get and then your relationship is a two way street, so humans get something from nature, but then we also give. Part of that relationship as reciprocity to me and that is what's really important about having a relationship with the land is when you have reciprocity with nature, you can give as it's giving you. That makes it so easy to protect and conserve and be mindful of how we're using what is around us. Jolie Sheffer: What about for you, Chris? Chris Gajewicz: For me, it's a sensory experience and I want that sensory experience to be gained by others as well. When I'm out in the forest environment or I'm out in a natural environment, I can't help but be in awe of where I am. But it's not just the sight of it, it's the feeling of it, the smell of it, how it envelops me when I get into the environment, get into the woods, get into the forest. I told someone recently that I spent a lot of my childhood immersing myself literally in the environment, and I would come home head to toe in mud and my mother would stop me at the door and that was it. She was like, "All right, take your clothes off and get in the house." And I'm like, "Well, but..." "No, just do it because you're a mess." But that's how I interacted with the environment is that I became part of the environment. Chris Gajewicz: So it was more for me, Madi used the word spiritual, and I think that's a really great way to describe it. For me, it's maybe a combination of that, a combination of me being a part of the environment and not separating myself from it. That's where all the sensory awareness comes into it for me. So I think it's kind of interesting. I'll be out with a group of people and I'll say, "Now, over on your left, you can see..." and I'm not even looking that direction, but I had been a moment ago, "... and there's a cooper's hawk and it's sitting in the tree," and they're like, "How did you see that?" I'm like, "Well, I don't know. I just did," and now, been able to make a job of it. So it's being aware of all of the things that are around you, smell that, touch this, see what this is. How does this make you feel? Are these leaves, do they smell good? Do they smell bad to you? Chris Gajewicz: I think that for a lot of people, nature is somewhat foreboding and they're frightened of it, especially if they've not experienced it, like maybe Madi and I have. They find themselves separating themselves to the more comforts of being inside a home as opposed to being in nature. There's nothing about nature that frightens me. I enjoy it very, very much. There are things in nature that can be a little bit scary, but for the most part, there's really nothing to be afraid of. Luckily, living in Northwest Ohio, we're in a great place to be because we don't have poisonous snakes, we don't have bears, we don't have things to really worry a whole lot about. So you can kind of put that on the back burner and really immerse yourself in the environment and not worry about being eaten by something. Jolie Sheffer: Madi, you've chosen to use oral history as a major feature of your research project. Can you explain how oral history is different from other forms of history or research and you felt it was important for this project? Madi Stump: Oral history is, in the most simplest terms, someone's story that is recorded. So it is recorded history told from the perspective of someone who has been in the situation or has had a really unique experience that's valuable to the historical record. It is a fairly recent field of history different than the traditional forms of historical scholarship that deal with written documentation and having a written record and that is what we use to study what's happened in the past. Oral history takes that a step further and gets the experience right from the source. So that is really important, in my eyes, for environmental history because there's two facets of environmental history that a piece of history environmental, and that is the human dimension, which a lot of people are surprised. Why is the human in environmental history? But the human dimension and the natural dimension, you can't separate them. We are integrally connected in every aspects of human life. There is nature. Madi Stump: So environmental history brings these two seemingly different perspectives or experiences together. In telling environmental history, there's certain forms of historical records that we can use. We can use pollen counts, we can use tree rings, we can use journals, but you can also use the experiences of people who have really intimate connections with the land. That's what this project aims to do through oral history, obtaining the stories of people who have deep ties with nature in their personal, professional lives and hearing not only how they have created those relationships, but what have they learned, what benefits have they received from having relationships to land that we can't really see in the historical record because a historical record doesn't show how the land speaks to us in our personal lives, in our professional lives and our experiences. Oral history is the way to obtain how nature is speaking to the humans and the humans are conveying that story in the oral history interviews. Jolie Sheffer: Madi's research is about listening and learning from the land. So Chris, what does that idea mean to you in your role as natural resources coordinator for the city of Bowling Green? Chris Gajewicz: I think it's absolutely impossible for humans to separate themselves from the environment. I think that over the many, many years of a particularly, I can only draw on my European American history background, but if you go to Europe, Europeans had an idea that the environment was something to be tamed, something to be managed. Managed probably isn't even the right word. Subjugated, I mean it had to be completely squashed. So that mindset came with our European ancestors to the American continents. When they came here, they saw a lot of frightening foreboding things that needed to be controlled and whether that may have been the indigenous people that lived here, or whether it was the indigenous animal life that was here, all of it needed to be controlled. Oftentimes people say, "Well, how can you look at the environment?" And I personally just can't take people away from it. Chris Gajewicz: It's impossible because humans have interacted with environment as long as we've had opposable thumbs, and we have done things to the environment, and not to be judgmental in any way, our human ancestors have done things to the environment because that's what you did at the time they did it. That's just how you interacted with it. So it's hard for us to kind of look back. Oftentimes, I'll do talks on the Great Black Swamp where we live and what happened? And I'll start out with saying, "At one point or another, this was all swamp. It was giant oak trees that had never been cut down and they could be a thousand years old. Who knows how old they were and now, they're all gone." Inevitably, someone in the audience will go, "AW," and I'll say, "Now, stop it right now." It is not our job to judge what our ancestors did to the environment. What our job is is to understand why they did what they did to the environment and then learn from that process." Chris Gajewicz: We know that some of the things, many of the things that were done to the environment were not a good thing, but surprisingly, some of the things that were done to the environment should be done now and are not prescribed burns and we're just getting back into prescribed burning right now in the past maybe 20, 30 years. It's still a fairly, which is funny, a fairly new science that native Americans and native Australians and native cultures throughout the world used fire. Because fire was suppressed, now we start seeing things like massive fires, particularly those in Australia, which were just horrific, but the native culture was not allowed to continue to burn as they had for thousands and thousands of years. Those plants, they evolved to accept fire as part of the way they live. Chris Gajewicz: I just saw a picture, I believe it was yesterday, of the greening up of the areas in Australia. And I'm like, "Ah hah. Well there you go folks. Those plants have adapted to fire. Things are going to green up in a short period of time." We look at things sometimes like, "I can't believe that the native Americans burned down most of the United States." Well, they burned it constantly and we have the historical record, that Madi mentioned, in journals. We use journals to see what's going on, and there's a really famous passage for Northwestern Ohioans where there were a group of native Americans that... like four guys on horses walking by. So we know horses, it was fairly recent in the grand scheme of things. They walked by a group of pioneers and then later on, they noticed smoke on the horizon and the prairie where these guys were all camping was now under, completely engulfed in flames. This was all prairie just up the road in Perrysburg, Ohio not that long ago and not that far away. Jolie Sheffer: Madi, Northwest Ohio is home to a diverse array of people past and present. How are you trying to incorporate diverse voices in your project? Madi Stump: One of the things that I have found in my preliminary research is that oral history emerged as a field to highlight voices that were marginalized in the historical records. Most of history is written by and about the predominant society, which is usually white and it's usually male. So in the people that I've selected or the people that I'm reaching out to for the oral history interviews for this project, I'm seeking out women in particular because women are a marginalized group in historical records. I'm seeking out native and indigenous voices because we know that there were a lot of indigenous tribal nations that used the resources in the Great Black Swamp. They maybe didn't live within the swamp where BG's currently settled, but they lived on the outside and they came into the Great Black Swamp to obtain resources and food and medicinal plants. Madi Stump: I'm intending to interview someone of tribal nation that has its roots in Northwest Ohio, so maybe the Wyandotte nation or the Miami nation. I really hope to highlight someone who is of a black, African American or another non white racial or ethnic group because our current population in Bowling Green is so diverse. I'm really grateful that I have those diverse perspectives here that I can use and I can look at then the way that people of different identities also, are interacting with the land in different or maybe similar ways and hopefully come to some kind of conclusion of different or similar ways that people are interacting with land in our home right now. Jolie Sheffer: Chris, could you tell us about your work in the restoration of Bowling Greens parks, such as Wintergarden and some of that custodianship of making a new generation of changes to the land? Chris Gajewicz: Wintergarden park has a long and storied history in and it has been a number of different things prior to it becoming a park. Most of the prairie that's there now was at one time for about 150 years, was row crops and at the time, it would have been either corn or wheat. St. John's woods many years ago was completely fenced off with metal fencing. Some of it's still exists if you look really hard. We've tried to remove some of it, but we have left some for historical perspective as well. If you look at it from the aerial, see it's a very different area. The reason it's different is that was fenced off, it's always been a woodlot and it was fenced off for the production of hogs. This is all information by the way, that I've gleaned from oral histories from people in our community who have come to me and they might be a gentleman may be a well up into his eighties saying, "I remember as a kid coming out here and there were hogs in here and you didn't want to mess with these hogs." Chris Gajewicz: I'm like, "Really? There's hogs." Well, that makes a lot of sense because as we look through that park, we see trillium. Trillium is a very common plant in Eastern Woodlands, except in Wintergarden park. It's also delicious because it doesn't have oxalic acid in it like the May apples do and the jack-in-the-pulpits do. Well, we have tons of jack-in-the-pulpits and ton of May apples and all of those are still there as a remnant because maybe a hog would have tried it once, but they wouldn't have tried it after that because it burns your mouth. It would burn any mammals mouth by eating it. There were oil wells there. You know that there was oil spillage there, I'm sure. So there's probably a layer of oil in those particular areas. It was water wells for the city of Bowling Green at one point. It was a summer camp for kids at one point. So there's lots and lots of different things it was. Chris Gajewicz: By the time I came on the scene in 2000 when I got the job as natural resources coordinator, one of my goals and one of the things we talked about when I was getting the job was how do we manage this area and remove, or at least prescribed something for it? That was just in the early days of discussions about prescribed burns, prescribed management. When I took the staff of the department of natural resources, division of natural areas and preserves around on a tour, they were just dumbfounded at the number of non-native invasive species that were in that park. They were like, "You guys are the poster child for what can go wrong." It's everywhere. So we needed to decide, and we meaning the staff that I eventually hired, we sat down and talked about what is it that needs to go first. It's like they say, eating an elephant one bite at a time. Chris Gajewicz: Well, this was a huge elephant and we couldn't just go in and do a little dabbling here and a little dabbling there. We started with the most critical parts of the park, which we deemed St. John's woods and we started working there and we began our efforts at removing as many or as much or all in some cases, of the non native invasives that were in that portion of the park. When we did that and we went in, sometimes bare handed, sometimes with a vengeance, a removing totarian bush honeysuckle and privet and burning bush. All of these were escapees from people's yards. Japanese Barberry, Japanese honeysuckle, Asiatic bittersweet, and it just went on and on. Then of course, garlic mustard, which was four feet tall and so thick you couldn't even walk through this stuff. It was ridiculous. Jolie Sheffer: So what's your vision when... At what point will you feel like- Chris Gajewicz: When we know we're done? Jolie Sheffer: Yeah- Chris Gajewicz: We're never going to be done. Jolie Sheffer: ... or what are you working towards? Chris Gajewicz: Actually, we had to set up a goal and our staff set up the goal. We were looking at pre contact with European cultures. So that would have been roughly in this area, would have been about 400 years ago with the French. They would have been through here. The Spanish had laid claim to this area, but I doubt highly that they ever came through this area, but the French certainly did. And then after that, the British and after that, the American cultures that were moving from the East to the Western part. What would we have seen 400 years ago? What would have been here with the possible exceptions of elk and bison, which I'd be happy to reintroduce those, but I'm pretty sure the neighbors wouldn't like it. But there were, megafauna aside, we would probably do our best to make it look as much like it looked when our pioneer ancestors would have been coming through the area. Chris Gajewicz: It's going to be difficult. In some cases, we have this kind of romanticized view of what the woods looks like or what it should look like. We read a lot of firsthand accounts and like, "It was beautiful and it was pristine and it was never touched by human hands." That's hogwash. Native Americans, as long as they've been in the United States or what we call the United States now, have been manipulating the land and that is that. When the pilgrims for instance, came and said, "God hath bestowed upon us these beautiful fields," well, those fields had been managed for hundreds of years as fields. So it's not like there was nothing going on prior to the arrival of these folks. Chris Gajewicz: We had to kind of pick a date and I had a board member once that said, "Why are you doing this?" I said, "Well, you know how when you go to the car show downtown and somebody has got a 1967 Mustang and it's really kind of cool, but it's really kind of outdated? Well, well that's kind of what we're doing. We're trying to restore something to a point where we can say this is what it looked like back then and use it as a historical reference point, museum like, but at the same time a living museum." Jolie Sheffer: We're going to take a quick break. Thanks for listening to the Big Ideas podcast. Intro: If you are passionate about Big Ideas, consider sponsoring this program. To have your name or organization mentioned here, please contact us at ICS@bgsu.edu. Jolie Sheffer: Madi, your project is about connecting research to the community. Can you tell us a little bit more about how you're hoping that the research that you're doing can actually be of use within our local parks? Madi Stump: I have two end products for this research, or rather to end community based outcomes. The first one is to deposit this collection of oral history, both the recorded interview and the transcript, as well as a short environmental history, a written environmental history using resources that I have found, all of that to be deposited in the Jerome Library Center for Archival Collections. So I've been working with the folks over there to make sure I have the proper documentation and the proper technology stuff to make sure that those records can be housed there, so that the community and guests and students can go and use those resources for the future and do their own scholarly research or just do some rabbit hole jumping or digging on the history of this community. Madi Stump: The second community based final product of this research is a physical sign that's going to be placed at Wintergarden park. It's going to feature a little bit of the oral history that I conducted of the park naturalist and of the park itself. It will accompany another community based project that I did last semester with some peers, an interpretive trail of sorts of focusing on St. John's woods, but really the park as a whole, this really rich history of Wintergarden and St. John's preserve. That sign itself will feature quotes and really detailed specific lessons that other people have learned from the park. That sign will have a QR code that will link to the BGSU history department blogs page. So there'll be an accompanying blog where there'll be more information about the transcripts and some recordings of the interviews themselves, some short clips, and then a link to the center for archival collections where this oral history collection will be housed. Madi Stump: So I'm really hoping that this project gives members of our community an opportunity to learn the stories of others and to learn how others are connecting to land so that they can similarly make connections to the natural parks and natural areas within Bowling Green to develop a sense of pride and ownership of the rich parks and the rich history of this place that we all live. Jolie Sheffer: Chris, how did your time at BGSU impact your career? Chris Gajewicz: I'm one of those people who came to Bowling Green twice and then decided not to leave. So I think that it impacted me in ways I don't even know. Sometimes, you go to a place and it sort of feels right. When I came as an undergrad here to finish up my degree that I had started at Hocking, so I had two years there, I came here for three years and I initially came here as a psychology major. I didn't even take one psychology course before I realized, knew that's not where I wanted to go. So I ended up in biology, which was okay, but I felt like there was something more. Then I switched to education and that's where I ended up even going further, getting my degree in recreation. I didn't even know you could do that, but when I was here I thought, "Well, I'm going to be stuck in a classroom for the rest of my life and I don't want to have to wear a tie every day," and kind of really dumb reasons to not go into a career in teaching. Chris Gajewicz: But still I thought, "I want to teach, but I want to teach in a non-traditional setting." So that's how I ended up in Bowling Green. I went out into the world for five years after my undergraduate degree, became either enlightened or frightened and came back to Bowling Green for my master's degree. Then I got a job working with Wood County parks as an intern and that's really where it started, is that I became very comfortable having grown up in Northwest Ohio, I always knew Bowling Green existed. I'm originally from Sylvania, just West of Toledo. So my high school played Bowling Green High School and football, not that I was there other than watching from the stands, but it was like, "Okay, Bowling Green's just far enough away from mom and dad, but still far enough away from me to be independent," and that was how I kind of looked at it. Chris Gajewicz: After graduate school, everything went very well and I really seem to enjoy what I was doing, doing the educational thing. Then I became a board member for Bowling Green Parks and Recreation. I wasn't even on the board for a year and they came up with this position called natural resources coordinator and I was like, "This is a great sounding job. I think I want it." So I had to step off the board, apply for the position and I got it, which was really great. I was the first person in the history of the city of Bowling Green to be the natural resources coordinator and manage natural resources within the city. I was the first person on the board who had a background in natural sciences as well. Everybody up until then, was either aquatics or sports, or active sport, active play, active recreation, and then here's this nature guy coming along and he sees things completely differently than everyone else does, a different type of recreation. Chris Gajewicz: So I was able to couple recreation with education and so that's how I kind of ended up here. I don't know if I answered the question exactly like you [crosstalk 00:28:05]. Jolie Sheffer: I think you did. Madi, what advice do you have for other students who might be interested in doing interdisciplinary and applied research search? Madi Stump: Do it. It can be really daunting as an undergraduate student to be doing big research projects, but there are so many resources here at BGSU that support students in their endeavors and their passions and their pursuits of life changing and community changing experiences. To any student anywhere in the world, there are those resources. So seek out those resources and take advantage of them because this kind of institutional support for both financially and mentorships and advisors, that doesn't happen everywhere. I think that that's one thing that makes BGSU a really special place is that there are so many different areas around campus, academic and nonacademic, that want students to succeed and put all of their... a full faith effort to do whatever they have to so students can succeed at these big interdisciplinary projects. Even a single faculty member, if there's one person that you feel a particular connection to because you had a really great class with them or because they're your academic advisor, they know other people who can connect you. Madi Stump: While my primary advisor for this project is Dr. Amilcar Challlu in the history department, I've also worked with other history department professors and I've worked with some of my environmental studies professors because Dr. Challu has been able to connect me and because of other resources on campus that have been able to connect me. This project wouldn't be interdisciplinary without them because my program's interdisciplinary, but it doesn't include every discipline. So to include a little bit of ethnic studies and identity based research, to include the history, to have that solid background of the environment and then to also include community based research and advocacy and support, these are all things that I couldn't have done without those additional connections on campus. So seek out those connections, use the resources that we have here because the world is endless. There are so many possibilities if you utilize the opportunities you have. Jolie Sheffer: I think it's really interesting, Chris, you telling your story of kind of your winding path and you, Madi, in your research process that you're both really talking about taking risks and trying things out and you sort of don't know what opportunity may present itself. Do you have any additional advice you'd give to young people who are interested in working on environmental issues or in trying to imagine a future that doesn't feel like wearing a tie if that's not what they want to do every day? Chris Gajewicz: First of all, I think that you need to, if you're looking at going into the environment in any aspect of it, that you need to go into it with first of all, an open mind. And second of all, in my personal opinion, I think sometimes the media throws gas on a fire and sometimes it's best to just do your own research and not be an alarmist. I mean, yes, it's very important that we learn what we can about what's going on in the environment. But there's such a big story, and with Madi's research and the interviews that she's doing, this is important because people did what they did for a reason. They didn't just willy nilly go out and say, "We're going to destroy the forest today." They were cutting the forest down because they were farmers. That was what they did then. So it's important to go at it again with without judgment, but with an understanding that the reason humans do what they do to the environment is because they had good reason that may be historically based. Chris Gajewicz: So we have to go back in the history, see what was going on at the time, understand, be nonjudgmental, and then look toward a future of like, "Okay, let's learn from our past, but now let's move toward the future." We're continually learning right now and I always say that science is never settled. I heard a politician say that once, "Science is settled." I'm like, "How could science be settled? The very nature of science is that it's unsettled and we wouldn't have a need for scientists if it were all figured out." We need to continue to figure it out and there's people... It's heartening to hear somebody like Madi with the enthusiasm she has to be able to... I'm passing the torch here in a few years to the next generation of people that are going to hopefully pick up where I left off, but I'm not expecting them to do exactly what I did. There's new research and new thoughts and new processes and new educational techniques. All of this is coming our way. It's not going to be the same as it was. Chris Gajewicz: I will be kind of keeping a close eye on what the next person is doing at Wintergarden, but for the most part I have to step back and let them do what they do. I just hope that they would also consider using people like myself as a resource. Don't forget that we do have a wealth of institutional and hands on knowledge that we want to share. And again, that's where people like Madi come in, do that research and interview those people because they do know. They saw it happening or they have, at the very least, they'll have an opinion about what to do next. So the best advice is go into it with an open mind, go into it with the expectation that you're going to do research for the rest of your career, that it's never settled, there's always more to learn. Every day, every single day I go to work, I learn something new and if I stop learning something new, I'm pretty sure it's time to move on, or maybe the cosmos had other plans for me and they moved me on unwillingly.

Codemash is an annual conference held in Sandusky, Ohio in January. CodeMash is organized by several volunteers from the professional developer community in the Heartland region who are recognized experts in these different technologies. Ever since I've discovered this conference and volunteering opportunities, I've highly encouraged my students to attend, network and learn cool stuff. Two of my second year Web Dev students volunteered this year and I was fortunate to be able to interview them as they share their experiences and what they've learned. One of the things I found most interesting between these students and hopefully you'll notice as well as their differences and their individual strengths and weaknesses show that all types of personalities and experience levels can come into the field of computer science. Meet our two students: Andrea Chatfield https://twitter.com/andichatfield Gabe Alexander

In this episode I focus more on the AWS academy class that we had reason I’m starting today. One of the things that I find especially interesting is it the fact that the only people in the class in the classroom today was myself and three girls so we got a little bit of #GirlPower which is awesome. I also had two favorite moments in the classroom today. One is peer learning at its finest in my opinion. The other is the students realizing that they are learning through the processes even if they don’t quite understand it when it’s happening. Listen to the podcast to learn more. If you have any questions please reach out to 740-300-1684.

In this episode I do a week-end recap for the week of 1/20/2020 with the Hocking College Computer Science program.  Topics include: Outreachy applications will be opening in February.  Outreaching provides a great opportunity for paid internship experiences for the big names in tech.  The website at https://www.outreachy.org/ states that                      Interns work with experienced mentors from open source communities. Outreachy internship projects may include programming, user experience, documentation, illustration, graphical design,  data science, project marketing, user advocacy, or community event planning. Interns often find employment after their internship with Outreachy sponsors or in jobs that use the skills they learned during their internship. We expressly invite women (both cis and trans), trans men, and genderqueer people to apply. We also expressly invite applications from residents and nationals of the United States of any gender who are Black/African American, Hispanic/Latin@, Native American/American Indian, Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian, or Pacific Islander. Anyone who faces under-representation, systemic bias, or discrimination in the technology industry of their country is invited to apply. Hocking College's AWS Academy course has a come-back date for 1/31/2020!  This is free for all Hocking College students.   Interview with a couple of my web-dev students and their experience as a CodeMash volunteer was done!  It was a little nerve wracking for me as it was my first interview experience but it was a lot of fun.  It's also interesting hearing the different thoughts and takeaways from the two students.  They are definitely opposites in many ways (Ying and Yang) but they both have their own strengths and weaknesses that work well together.

In episode seven, we are shifting from the world of K-12 education and moving into postsecondary, though this conversation very much impacts the work being done in K-12 schools with career development and exploration, something all schools need to focus on more. Shane has a conversation with Dwight Heckelman, the founder of GROOVE U, a two-year music career program offering a diploma in the music industry. Dwight has over 20 years of experience in nearly every facet of the music industry. While attending Belmont University, he worked as a Field Marketing Representative at Capitol Records (Everclear, Jimmy Eat World) and after graduation he worked as an engineer/songplugger, wrote the technical column for Music Row Magazine, and then as a producer and went on to become President of AudioStream — a multimillion-dollar independent record label. In 2005 he left the corporate world for academia, where he designed, implemented, and chaired the Music Management program at Hocking College. Dwight then served as the Career Development and Job Recruitment Coordinator at the prestigious Berklee College of Music. And one day in 2009, he just decided to start his own school called GROOVE U, where they boast a 93% job placement in-field among all its graduates. Dwight is all about positive disruption in education, something, in my opinion, we all should be practicing, and we talk a lot about that in this episode. We recorded this episode on the Groove U campus right in Dublin, Ohio, a suburb of Columbus.

After about a decade in the music industry working for major and independent record labels, recording studios, music publishers, and music industry trade publications, Dwight Heckelman left the corporate world for academia. In 2005, he chaired and designed the music industry program at Hocking College, later serving as the Career Development and Job Recruitment Coordinator at the Berklee College of Music.   Then, in 2010, Dwight founded Groove U, a revolutionary two-year Music Industry Entrepreneurship career program located in Dublin, Ohio. Most traditional music education programs, like many formal education programs, don’t actually consider the application of knowledge in the working world – but at Groove U, careers in the industry are front and center. Appropriately, they boast an impressive 96% job placement rate for graduates.   For more information, visit: http://Brandeis.edu   Resources: Learn more at grooveu.edu Twitter: twitter.com/dwightheckelman From the Dorm Room to the Boardroom is a production of Crate Media

Alan McMillan was in the right place at the right time, Silicon Valley in years of dramatic transformation into the information age. He rode the crest of of the wave in sales and management and lived through the adreniline laced experiences of fianancial successes, job loss, getting re-hired, and then turned his life from success to significance when he returned with his wife, Kateri, to Athens, OH where he had attended Ohio University. Alan and Kateri bought a student apartment building and a convenience store with a rentable space for a restaurant. As they turned their hearts toward the needs of others, there was opportunity, and also a new vision of how compassion can be expressed through the way business is done. In this call you'll learn about Alan and Kateri's lives and principles for serving others both in their company and among the students they work with through an initiative called, "Learn, Earn, Retire" that puts Alan in a role of teacher and mentor to College Students in preparing them for real world challenges. Alan McMillan is is the Vice President for Enrollment and Student Development at Hocking College and is an Adjunct Professor in Business at Ohio University in Athens, OH.

My mom joined me during this very special Mother's Day episode!! She talked about her time in Athens over the last 3 decades. Her work as a professor at Hocking College, Ohio University, and also teaching in England. We also talked about her work with a band she was in in the 80's, The Algy Krebbs Quartet, as well as the amazing work she has done with ATCO and Passionworks. Finally the first female guest, and I am truly honored it could be my mother.

Hezron Clarke was born and raised during his earlier years in the District of Moy Hall District, St. James, Jamaica, before migrating to the U.S.A. Whilst in Jamaica; Hezron developed his talent, being an ardent member of his church choir. His musical gift was evident to his family and friends who facilitated its development however possible. After his migration, Hezron continued to expand on the dexterity of his vocals by naturally transitioning into singing R & B, but was not entirely satisfied within that genre, as his calling was deeply embedded in the rich Reggae music of his homeland. As such, he was compelled to return to Jamaica to fulfil his true calling of being an outstanding Reggae artiste.   Hezron's latest performance at the 2012 staging of the “greatest one night  reggae show”- “STING”, has left no doubts in the minds of the public as to his versatility, and vocal dexterity,  Narda "NADIVA DEVEREAUX" Malcolm was born in Montego Bay, Jamaica. In 2002 she entered the Jamaica Festival Song Competition and was placed 3rd in the entire island. She has entered and won several local contests and prizes in Jamaica.

While in college she majored in Hospitality Management with a minor in Music Production and Performance. In 2007, she graduated with honors from Hocking College in Nelsonville, Ohio. Then from Virginia State University in 2009 and the University of Delaware in 2012. Nadiva's talents are not limited to singing and song writing. She also makes some of the beats for her songs. Her repertoire consists of R & B, easy listening Reggae,Dance Hall Reggae, pop and soul.  caribbeanradioshow@gmail.com  call in 661-467-2407

Jeff Kolada hit us up about making a vidcast of the Last Hurrah event. As with all street events sometimes things don't go to plan - but we have an edit for you anyway! Keep reading to check out the event report. Here are a few words from Jeff - "The Last Hurrah competition in Athens, OH did not go exactly as planned. After being kicked out of our three competition spots during warmups, and running out of options, the contest was cancelled and everyone agreed to just skate for fun and just have a good time. Enjoy my edit of the day, and I would like to thank Rolling Revival, Oke Clothing, and John Hoch for making the edit and event possible." You can also check it out on our youtube page if you so desire. Thankyou to Jeff for the edit! The Last Hurrah 2008 Report June 21, 2008 The day started out like any other for me…EARLY.  Sleep in Saturday?  Nope, woke up at 8:00 am to get ready to head down to Athens, Ohio for a day I had hoped to be filled with good times and good people. Friends started to trickle in to the Athens City Skatepark around 11:00am.  As each started to arrive I quickly learned that a good number came out to watch the contest.  Only a few came to actually skate and be judged to win money.  It was when I hit this wall of, What if I don’t have enough people show up?  What will I do?”  Thank goodness the REAL reason we all get together is to skate and share stories since we last saw one another.  So making a decision to have the day end up being a session rather than competition was an easy adjustment for everyone that came out. I still wanted to follow the same route of spots to make the day go by hopefully a little more smooth than just picking and choosing spots.   But thanks to “Johnny Law” they seemed to make the decisions for us.  We were busted by Ohio University Police at the first spot, which were ledges underneath OU’s Music Building.  So that took care of any other campus spots I had in mind.  The second was located at Athens High School which was everyone’s favorite wavy handi-rail.  Due to an Annual Bee Keepers Association meeting taking place our fun was put to a timely halt by one angry Bee Keeper.  Luckily a couple of the girls with us made it out alive from their little hive in time with some honey from one nice old man who gladly gave to them for free, wish he had more pull in the bee hive than the ass that kicked us out.   So with us basically kicked out of Athens we hopped into our gas guzzling automobiles to ride ten miles up to Hocking College, our last hope.  Within five minutes of everyone arriving and getting out of their cars Hocking College’s hope for a better tomorrow also known as the rent-a-cop came out to tell us the age old story, “I don’t care, but the people who sign my checks want you to leave.”  So down but not out we huddled together to see if there was anything else left out there to skate because we had a good amount of sun light to burn.  While our brains bounced ideas off one another, Dax tried to hop on with Hocking College’s construction crew, but was met with WTF expressions from the hardened men.  Thankfully Jeff and Mike knew about some old rails underneath some over passes back in Athens.  So once again we piled into our cars and drove back to Athens to skate a nice handi-rail on a bike path near the Hocking River.  Other than the occasional bicycle enthusiast we had the little safe haven we had been looking for. All day long people kept a positive attitude which is what kept us going when we were booted and banished for doing something we love and are passionate about.  The way I see it, everyone won on that day.  We did not let anything get in the way of our good time.  It is always a wonderful experience to host an event like this.  When I found out no one really wanted to skate in the contest I was a little hurt.  But having my friends there helped me see it is not about a contest,...
