On this Season 2 Finale Episode of the Hungarian Heritage Podcast, I again have the pleasure of speaking with Ilka Kocsis, the author of Ilka's Kitchen. Like bookends to this season, Ilka was my first guest of Season 2, and now she is back on the podcast for the finale episode of Season 2 to talk about her experience as a winner and participant of the Balassi Summer University Scholarship Program in Budapest during the summer of 2023, which is organized by the Hungarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade. We are going to discuss all the details of Ilka's four week cultural immersion experience… from the application process, to the travel logistics, to the housing and food accommodations, and of course we will discuss the daily schedule of Hungarian language classes and cultural experiences included in the scholarship. Once you hear Ilka tell us about all of the amazing things that are included in this program, I am sure that you will want to apply for the scholarship for next summer. In this episode, Ilka and I will also discuss the SECOND edition of her cookbook memoir, Ilka's Kitchen, and all the new things that were added to make this second edition.

But don't worry, those details aren't immediately necessary for you to enjoy today's topics. So let's get started with our season 2 finale episode that is jam packed important details and insightful conversations with Ilka Kocsis about the Balassi Summer University Program and her cookbook memoir, Ilka's Kitchen, edition 2.

Like many cybersecurity pros, both David and Chandler found their way into the industry after first exploring different fields. In this episode, they join Adam to share the details of how they got into cybersecurity, how they discovered CrowdStrike's internship program and the projects they've been tackling as part of the CrowdStrike team. “You just get to dive in,” says Chandler in this episode. “You feel like you're doing meaningful work, and you are ...

On today's podcast episode, we talk with a student and a professor at Concordia University Ann Arbor. The school will need to significantly reduce its operations and program offerings, including athletics, after the 2024-25 academic year. The cuts have staff and students anxious about what the future holds for the institution. The Lutheran institution is facing a $9 million budget deficit. Enrollment has grown in recent years with a student body around 1,000, but it's a benchmark many smaller colleges have found it hard to maintain operations. Even so, back in February university administration announced a series of staff and program cuts. Then came a notice in June that all athletic programs would be cut next year. Just nine in-person and seven online programs will remain after June 2025. You can find a statement from Concordia University here.

Researchers at Oregon State University recently published a study showing that the use of a metal bar placed at a certain height on a commercial fishing vessel can significantly reduce repetitive motion injuries sustained by deckhands during the Dungeness crabbing season. It's one example of how the Fishermen Led Injury Prevention Program, which was launched at OSU nearly a decade ago, is helping fishermen reduce injuries in an industry where hazards abound, from falls on a slippery deck to vessel disasters on the high seas. After hearing from fishermen that first aid training needs to be relevant for their industry, FLIPP partnered with Oregon Sea Grant to develop a first aid training course that is being taught to fishing crews in Oregon, and has now expanded to training sessions in Washington and California. Laurel Kincl is an associate professor of environmental and occupational health at Oregon State University, and Poggy Lapham is a commercial fisherman based in Newport. They join us to talk about efforts to make fisheries in Oregon and the West Coast safer through the work of FLIPP.

Overview: Today Lori Boll speaks with Aidan and Lisa Sos. Aidan and LIsa first met Lori on a playground in Shanghai, China when they had just been told that Aidan could no longer attend the international school he was attending due to his Intellectual Developmental Disability (IDD). So, he ended up attending a small school for individuals with special needs that Lori was directing at the time.

I've known Tiffany for quite a long time now and she truly is like a sister to me. I was so excited to have her on the show, but I've never once worked with her. Despite this, she is such a wonderful person that if I ever was to be sick, injured, or my family needed care I would be so fortunate if she was the nurse. She has been caring for people her entire life, even when not her responsibility. I hope you feel as inspired as I am after listening to her. As we discussed here is a wonderful Florence Nightingale quote: The most important practical lesson that can be given to nurses is to teach them what to observe, how to observe, what symptoms indicate improvement, what the reverse, which are of importance, which are of none, which are the evidence of neglect, and of what kind of neglect. Thank you Tiffany!

In episode 36 of this podcast, Bill Bradberry, Chair of the Niagara Falls Underground Railroad Heritage Area Commission, described encountering the glaring lack of cultural diversity within and around the museum industry, particularly in leadership. He cited the new Museum Studies program at Lincoln University as an example of a program that addresses the problem directly. Blake Bradford is the director of that Museum Studies Program, a partnership between Lincoln University and the Barnes Foundation. In this episode, Bradford describes ways to change museum institutions that already consider themselves successful. He also talks about museums as public-facing institutions, inviting his students to think critically about how truth is established through museums, and what surprises him about his students.
