Podcasts about student representative

Hope Churchill is a senior studying business administration in our Miller College of Business. She's also our current student representative on the Board of Trustees. In this role, Hope serves as the voice of her peers, advocating for her fellow Ball State students and bringing their perspectives to the board. As she prepares to graduate in May, Hope reflects on her Ball State journey and her service to our University. She shares how the COVID-19 pandemic influenced her high school and college experiences—and how more students on campus are stepping up as leaders now that the pandemic has receded. When asked what she loves most about Ball State, Hope also shares her appreciation for the University's distinct culture, which is shaped by the Midwestern hospitality of our faculty, staff, and students and a shared commitment to the Beneficence Pledge. If you enjoy this episode, please leave a review to support the show. 

In mid-May of this year, school districts across the state received the final State School Fund reconciliation for the 2022-23 school year and revised assumptions for the 2023-24 school year.  For context, and to simplify a system that is quite complex, public schools in Oregon build their budgets on two primary things:  Revenue - money they project to receive from the Oregon Department of Education for the Average Daily Membership, or ADM, of enrolled students, as well as a variety of other calculations that take into account teacher experience, students requiring additional services, transportation reimbursement, timber funds, local property tax collections, and so on.  Expenditures - money they expect to spend on staffing, benefits, supplies, utilities, administration, service provision, etc.  ODE adjusts the ADM allocation multiple times each year as actual information is received from each of Oregon's 197 school districts, with a final reconciliation completed the May following the completion of any given school year.  What HSD learned with the most recent reconciliation was that, due to a decline in enrollment and revisions to the ADM allocation, we received a negative State School Fund adjustment for the 2022-23 school year of more than $4 million, as well as revised assumptions for the 2023-24 school year of nearly $3 million. After running the June payroll, which is when approximately 25 percent of the District's expenditures are made each year, it also became clear that expenditures in 2023-24 were higher than anticipated in some areas, due in large part to factors outside of our control and the unknown impact of new legislation and associated costs. Because school districts are required to have balanced budgets each year, this burden was shifted to the 2024-25 school year.  The full impact of these prior-year revenue and expenditure changes on the 2024-25 budget was not clear until after September payroll was completed and October 1 enrollment numbers were in. We now know that HSD is facing a shortfall of $9.5 million this school year. Administration has come up with a list of strategies for closing the budget gap in ways that do not directly affect students; however, there are some unknowns as we are still in the midst of bargaining with our licensed and classified employee unions.  Aside from our diligence in managing the budget shortfall we are experiencing this year, a very important task for us is to advocate the Legislature for stable and adequate K-12 school funding in the 2025-27 biennium, a reduction in carve-outs from the State School Fund, and a correction to/avoidance of new unfunded mandates. Visit our website to learn more.  Our Featured Students are our 2024-25 Student Representatives to the School Board: Gwen Kondor, junior at Century High School; Kal Sibbel, senior at Liberty High School; and Abraham Staffa, junior at Hillsboro Online Academy. They were sworn in at the Board's regular session meeting on Tuesday, September 24. Student Representatives are non-voting members of the Board and serve in an advisory capacity, providing an invaluable experience to both the students and Board members. The opportunity to serve as a Student Representative rotates between our high schools each year. Next year, students from Glencoe, Hilhi, and Oak Street Campus can apply.

The Mat-Su School District made headlines last fall when they voted to severely limit the student representative position on the school board. Ben Kolendo, a senior at Mat-Su Career & Tech High School in Wasilla, held the seat at the time.  Then this summer, the school board voted to entirely remove the position, which dates back to 1979.  ATMI producer Edison Wallace Moyer sat down in the studio with Kolendo to talk about his experiences on the school board. He spoke about the responsibilities of being a student representative, the conflicts with the school board that led to his role being limited, and the larger story that followed.

Vincent Santiago's research interests include eating behaviors, body image, and bariatric surgery. Vincent's doctoral dissertation explores the use of an intervention for food addiction (the concept that individuals can be addicted to foods, particularly highly processed foods). This intervention combines Adapted Motivational Interviewing, a person-centered counseling approach, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) skills for eating-related issues and will be tested in a randomized controlled trial. Vincent's Master's thesis explored psychosocial factors (i.e., adult attachment style, emotion regulation, and psychopathology) related to cigarette smoking following bariatric surgery. For his undergraduate thesis, he studied the influence of video messages on healthier eating among students who engaged in restrained and unrestrained eating. He previously worked in research positions at Toronto Western Hospital's Bariatric Surgery Program and the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health. Clinical Interests Vincent's clinical interests include the assessment and treatment of various mental health issues, including eating disorders, anxiety disorders (e.g., social anxiety disorder), and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).

Today it's great to have Maddie Radnan on the podcast. Maddie is a PhD student at the MARCS Institute for Brain, Behaviour and Development, Western Sydney University. Maddie's PhD thesis focuses on the Time Travelling with Technology (TTT), which is a technology-based program for promoting relationships and engagement in aged care. TTT is an immersive, dynamic and interactive interface that utilises Google Liquid Galaxy to explore worldly landmarks and locations. In an aged care facility, TTT will be utilised as a platform for technology driven reminiscence therapy. It will give residents the opportunity to travel to both significant and insignificant locations. Maddie's research aims to explore how TTT impacts the level of engagement of residents and influences the relationship between resident and staff members of three different aged care facilities. Besides being PhD student, Maddie is also Student Representative on HDR Committee Council for MARCS and member of the Research Continuity Studies Council at Western Sydney University. To find out how she manages all these roles, why it is important not to lose the passion for research and teaching, and also to hear more about Maddie's research on TTT, listen to this episode.Time stamps:[00:53] Maddie's introduction[01:26] From neurophysiological research on animals to research with older adults[03:12] Obstacles that Maddie faced in her research journey[05:05] Work/life balance[07:50] Maddie's research on Time Travelling with Technology (TTT)[11:33] Plans for future research[12:57] Issues that women in Academia are facing today according to Maddie[15:43] Maddie's advice for everyone thinking about a career in Academia or for those just starting a career in AcademiaLinks:The MARCS Institute: https://www.westernsydney.edu.au/marcsWestern Sydney University: https://www.westernsydney.edu.au/Get in touch:e-mail: podcast.irenalovcevic@gmail.comtwitter: @IrenaLovcevicinstagram: @irenalovcevicwebsite: https://munduslibrium.com/

Terri Broussard Williams believes that leaders turn moments into movements. She also believes that anyone can be a great leader. Terri explains that movements can be as big as passing a law, building a church, or starting a nonprofit. They can also be as small as giving to someone in need, showing kindness, or helping students at a school get gym equipment. This podcast is here to help you with the HOW and WHY people build movements. I’ll break it down each time using the #FirestarterFormula which is: find your cause, build a community to help, communicate your vision, and work to see change.In each episode of this podcast, we take a look at one of the four pillars of the #MovementMakerTribe including philanthropy, policy change, movement-building, and the movement from within. Movement Maker: The Podcast, Season 2 is the second chapter of Terri Broussard Williams's popular social impact blog brought to life with audio. In Season 1 Terri interviewed eight different change makers and discovered how, why, and what exactly it takes to make an impact today. This episode of Movement Maker: The Podcast delves into the challenges and perspective of 2020 college graduates. Terri interviews four newly graduated college students to discover how they are feeling about graduating during these challenging and uncertain pandemic times. The class of 2020 is truly a class like no other, being faced with unexpected and uncharted changes. Some graduates missed out on long awaited rites of passage ceremonies and are still able to graduate but in a way they never expected before, a virtual ceremony. Tune in as you gain a glimpse of the impact that COVID-19 has made on these individuals.

Christian Giudice, a scholar of modern occultism and Traditionalism, joins us in podcast episode 185 to discuss his dissertation entitled Occultism and Traditionalism: Arturo Reghini and the Antimodern Reaction in Early Twentieth Century Italy.Christian Giudice is a PhD scholar at the University of Gothenburg. His thesis analyses the interaction between Modernity and its impact on the Occult milieu of early twentieth-century Italy, focusing on Arturo Reghini (1878-1946) as a case study. Reghini was actively involved in most of the occult manifestations on the Italian peninsula during his lifetime. Thus he represents a fundamental figure if we want to better understand the convoluted period leading up to the Great War and the rise of Benito Mussolini.Giudice obtained an BA Honours Degree in Literae Humniores (Classics) from St. Hugh’s College, Oxford (2001) and more recently an MA with distinction in Western Esotericism, with a thesis focusing on Kenneth Grant and post-Crowleyan magic (2011). In 2012 he was elected Student Representative for ESSWE (European Society for the Study of Western Esotericism) for the year 2013. His other research interests include Traditionalism in a wider perspective (Guenon, Schuon, Evola, Coomaraswamy), Thelema and its developments after the death of Aleister Crowley (1875-1947), fin de siecle Occultism in England, France and Italy, Occultism and the visual arts.For a list of publications see: http://gu-se.academia.edu/ChristianGiudiceArturo Reghini was born in Florence on 12 November 1878. Since a very young age his interest in the occult was noticeable and in 1898 he was among the founding members of the Theosophical lodge in Rome. Having obtained a degree in Mathematics at Pisa University, Reghini frequented the cultural milieu of the Florentine Scapigliatura, lecturing, frequenting literary cafes and writing on seminal journals such as La Voce and the futurist Lacerba.In 1910 he claimed to have been initiated to an ancient Pythagorean initiatory school by Amedeo Armentano. After WWI, in which Reghini voluntarily enlisted, along with many other traditionalist thinkers gravitating around him, in the 1920s, Reghini founded journals which allowed him to express his views on occult, political and literary topics, being the editor in chief of Atanor, Ignis and Ur.These journals were fundamental in circulating ideas which would influence many thinkers who are nowadays better known than Reghini himself: among the authors collaborating with Reghini we thus find Rene Guenon (1886-1951), Julius Evola and Aniceto Del Massa (1898-1975).Reghini’s involvement with Freemasonry was constant between 1902 and 1925, the year in which masonic organizations were banned in Italy. It is within the folds of fringe masonry that Reghini found fertile ground for his ideas concerning a reform of modern Freemasonry, which invoked a return to its spiritual origins, considered to be Mediterranean by the Florentine thinker. Reghini’s involvement with Eduardo Frosini (1879 – ?) is well documented in this regard.The Lateran Accords of 1929 between the Fascist regime and Pope Pius XI put an end to Reghini’s, and other traditional thinkers, to influence the newly-born political cabinet. Reghini then seemed to become isolated from the activities of the Roman cultural milieu, moving to Budrio to teach mathematics in a private school and to pursue his studies on Pythagoric numbers, for which he received recognition from the prestigious Accademia dei Lincei in 1931. He died in 1946, leaving a legacy, which only in recent years has been picked up by Italian scholars.In the members’ only site at https://chamberofreflection.com, Christian Giudice, Rudolf, and I continue the interview, focusing on Italian occultists infiltration of Masonic lodges in order to spread their ideology.
