You don't want to miss this conversation with DeRionne. She offers one of the most compelling arguments FOR the value of higher education that we have heard. She talks about serving students to create opportunity, and for first-gen students, a pathway to change circumstances and create generational wealth. DeRionne talks about being "high-touch, and high-tech" for students who have increased expectations. She doubles down on the importance of higher education as a public good rather than as a commodity. Dr. DeRionne Pollard is the current president of Nevada State College (NSC). She was appointed by the Nevada System of Higher Education (NSHE) Board of Regents in April to lead NSC, a four-year public comprehensive institution. NSC is one of the fastest-growing colleges in the country and is designated as a Minority Serving Institute (MSI), Hispanic Serving Institution (HSI) and Asian American Native American Pacific Islander Institution (AANAPI). NSC also advances phenomenal teaching and superb student support to expand and diversify an educated workforce, thereby protecting social justice and economic mobility. Dr. Pollard began her tenure at NSC on Aug. 16, 2021. Thank YOU so much for tuning in. Join us on the next episode for YOUR time to EdUp!

Recent protests around the world (such as the Arab Spring uprisings and Occupy Wall Street movements) have drawn renewed interest to the study of social change and, especially, to the manner in which words, images, events, and ideas associated with protestors can "move the social." What Democracy Looks Like: The Rhetoric of Social Movements and Counterpublics (U Alabama Press, 2017) is an attempt to foster a more coherent understanding of social change among scholars of rhetoric and communication studies by juxtaposing the ideas of social movements and counterpublics--historically two key factors significant in the study of social change. Foust, Pason, and Zittlow Rogness's volume compiles the voices of leading and new scholars who are contributing to the history, application, and new directions of these two concepts, all in conversation with a number of acts of resistance or social change. The theories of social movements and counterpublics are related, but distinct. Social movement theories tend to be concerned with enacting policy and legislative changes. Scholars flying this flag have concentrated on the organization and language (for example, rallies and speeches) that are meant to enact social change. Counterpublic theory, on the other hand, focuses less on policy changes and more on the unequal distribution of power and resources among different protest groups, which is sometimes synonymous with subordinated identity groups such as race, gender, sexuality, and class. Nonetheless, contributors argue that in recent years the distinctions between these two methods have become less evident. By putting the literatures of the two theories in conversation with one another, these scholars seek to promote and imagine social change outside the typical binaries. Christina Foust is an Associate Professor of Communication Studies at Metropolitan State University of Denver.  Amy Pason is an Associate Professor of Communication Studies at the University of Nevada, Reno, and currently spends most of her time as Faculty Senate Chair and most recently, been elected to represent all Faculty Senate Chairs for the Nevada System of Higher Education.  Kate Zittlow Rogness, Ph.D., is a faculty member in the Department of Communication at Minneapolis College.  Tom Discenna is Professor of Communication at Oakland University whose work examines issues of academic labor and communicative labor more broadly.

By most measures, the US has over 40 million independent or unaffiliated voters representing a third or more of the electorate. Yet despite large and growing numbers, independents are often missing from the national conversation.   Independents have no cable channel or national newspaper. You rarely encounter independent viewpoints on major networks or opinion pages. And there's a surprising lack of scholarship on independents as well.   Who are American's prominent, politically-engaged political independents? We'll meet four in Episode 3:  Laura Sibilia, a three-term independent legislator in the Vermont Assembly; John Opdycke, President of Open Primaries; Thom Reilly, Chancellor of the Nevada System of Higher Education; and Jacqueline Salit, President of Independentvoting.org.

Last week my husband and I dropped off family at McCarran airport and on the way back to the parking deck, I stopped cold in my tracks in unbelief and disappointment for Las Vegas marketing when I saw this blurry, pixelated attempt at advertising: Most locals walk past these advertisements daily without a second thought. And that's a problem. Poor, outdated presence has become part of Las Vegas cheese. But as owner of a digital marketing agency, my heart is for design, presence and first impressions. And when I saw a multi-million dollar Strip hotel casino with a faded, blurry and flat out ugly wall banner that looked like it had been there since the airport was constructed, it confirmed for me that Las Vegas has an online culture problem. We have come to love this community, its people and the organizations that make it up, so we hate to see beautiful places like this present themselves as less than. So let me tell you a bit about why this strikes a chord with me: I grew up an hour south of Cleveland, OH with a work ethic and a strive for excellence and quality. Many parts of northeast Ohio are rural and I suppose the culture carries its farmer roots when it comes to work principles. It's not unusual to see people who still live in their 1800's well-kept family home. Buildings don't fall apart after 10 years, jobs aren't finished until the customer is happy, and business websites are modern and up to date. Companies understand the importance of quality representation online. Let me give you an example from a small winery in Hartville, OH called Maize Valley. This is a tiny local winery off State Route 619 that you finally arrive at once you pass fields upon fields of corn (hence the name). They're not famous, and their wine isn't the best you've ever tasted, but you would never know that by their presence online. Maize Valley sits on beautiful land and they know it. So what do they naturally show off on their website? The very thing that makes them great! (And in a modern, high quality way might I add). Las Vegas is a much younger culture than those closer to the East coast and it has settled and become comfortable with an outdated online presence. The 1990's still dominate this region's graphics, usability, look and feel. It's embarrassing. I could ruthlessly list outdated website after website, posts, banners, and endless advertisements I've encountered since relocating that I would be too ashamed to put my name on and label "finished work." We're talking serious, established, legitimate companies that anyone would be (unpleasantly) surprised to land upon. It just doesn't match up. There is no consistent experience. But there will be no name and shaming. Instead, we're looking to shape the culture in Las Vegas and bring a modern, high quality standard through our agency. Las Vegas is a leader in tourism, entertainment and attractions and every business here should reflect that on every front. Las Vegas should lead online. Here is a prime example of what that looks like: Below is the old, "before" screen shot of Nevada NASA Programs, a division of Nevada System of Higher Education at UNLV. It was a typical, unimpressive, outdated website. Every state offers NASA Programs, but we wanted Nevada to be the leader and the best so that when other states check them out, they're absolutely floored. And so we did. This is the new face of Nevada NASA Programs and you can believe other state programs are talking. I highly encourage you to check out their live site as it's even better than the screen shot (spoiler: the 3D effects are awesome!) The technology exists. We know how to use it and wield it for good. Your company website should be your hardest working, best looking employee on staff. We're here to introduce Nevada to twenty-first century modern web design.
