Educator of the Year: Dr. Albert Dr. Daniel Albert, associate professor and chair of the Chemistry Department at Millersville University, was selected as the 2023-2024 Educator of the Year. This prestigious award, presented by the University, recognizes faculty members who exemplify excellence in teaching, advising and mentorship. Albert was honored during the University’s commencement ceremony last May and again at a faculty celebration during the fall semester. His dedication to student success and creative teaching approaches have made a significant impact on countless students. There are three categories a professor must be proficient in to be considered for the Educator of the Year award: behavioral/actions, disposition and influence. Albert believes that the qualities of a good teacher extend beyond subject matter expertise. “Being reflective and patient are some of the key elements to being a good teacher,” he said. “Sometimes I feel like I designed a really great class where students are engaged with material, but then I poll the class with a related question and less than 50% of students get the question right. Patience is key because you want students to understand concepts right away but that’s not really the way meaningful learning works. Reflection is critical because now you need to talk with your students and ask questions to better understand why they don’t understand the concept and then take that information to try to do better the next time.” To motivate and inspire his students, Albert focuses on building strong relationships. “Getting to know students as people and allowing them to understand who I am as a person is important in motivating and inspiring students,” he shared. “By getting to know students you get to understand their goals and if they don’t know what their goals are you can help guide them to different possible outcomes. Ultimately, the motivation and inspiration must come from students but as a teacher, you can help them see possibilities that they might not have considered and connect them to opportunities that allow them to grow.” When asked about the significance of receiving the Educator of the Year award, Albert expressed his gratitude and humility. “It is a great honor to win this award,” he said. “There are so many talented and inspiring educators on the faculty at Millersville. Most of what I have accomplished as an educator has been achieved through collaborations and in working groups with other faculty. I appreciate the opportunity to talk about teaching and mentorship with them so we can work together to improve the student experience. I’m thankful to be considered amongst the wonderful people that are my colleagues.” Nominations for the 2024-2025 Educator of the Year award are now being accepted. Faculty members who exemplify the criteria outlined above are encouraged to apply. Nominations need to be completed by March 2 […] “Educator of the Year: Dr. Albert”

Trevor Winter:  First Noyce Grant Recipient Trevor Winter, a transfer student from Harrisburg Area Community College has made history at Millersville University as the first recipient of the prestigious Noyce grant. Winter, who is pursuing a degree in physics education, will graduate in 2027 and is thrilled about the opportunities the grant provides. “This grant is incredible. It means so much to me and my family,” Winter shared. “It will not only help me achieve my dream of becoming a teacher but also allow me to pay off my car, which is a huge relief.” The Noyce grant is part of Millersville University’s newly awarded Track 1: Scholarships and Stipends Grant from the National Science Foundation, totaling $1,199,953. This five-year initiative is designed to recruit and train 15 STEM majors to address the national shortage of highly effective secondary mathematics and science teachers. Selected Noyce Scholars receive financial support covering 97% of tuition, fees, and room and board—equivalent to $48,000 over two years. In return, they commit to teaching in high-need school districts such as those in Lancaster and York, both of which serve diverse and economically disadvantaged student populations. A native of Hallam, Pennsylvania, Winter would love to stay in the York area to teach and bring his love of physics to life for students. “Physics is how everything works,” says Winter. “It’s fascinating to me to observe something and then say, let’s go find out how it works.” “Millersville University is committed to addressing the critical shortage of STEM teachers in high-need schools,” said Dr. Cynthia Taylor, professor of mathematics and Principal Investigator of the project. “Through the Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship Program and our local partnerships, we aim to equip scholars with the skills to become effective, culturally competent educators.” Dr. Nanette Dietrich, professor of Educational Foundations and Co-Principal Investigator, highlighted the grant’s broader benefits: “This is an incredible opportunity for students aspiring to teach grades 7-12. Along with the Noyce support, the state offers a $10,000 stipend for student teaching. It’s a fantastic time to enter the teaching profession!” Students interested in applying for the Noyce Scholarship should contact Dr. Cynthia Taylor at cynthia.taylor@ […] “Trevor Winter:  First Noyce Grant Recipient”

Ville Hosts First Gen Forward event   The office of Student Access and Support Services hosted a First Gen Forward event on Nov. 8. to provide insight into college life as a first-gen student and the vast amount of resources MU provides. The event was held for prospective first-generation junior and senior students from the TRIO Talent Search program, and Millersville University students, faculty and staff were also invited to attend. Each high school student was afforded the ability to make connections with current MU students who share similar backgrounds. Throughout the day, visiting students from Reading High School attended several presentations about what it means to be a first-gen student as well as the financial and social aspects of it. MU First Gems, a student club for first-gen students on campus, hosted a student panel for the attending high schoolers. A financial literacy presentation was held and provided resources and insight on how to pay for college as a first-gen student. Short-term and long-term goals are kept in mind when planning these events and the resources provided within them. SASS shares what they want high school students to get out of this event. “Post-secondary education is attainable for them being first-generation,” says Bemnet Bekele, project coordinator for Talent Search at Millersville. “For them to be able to see themselves on campus whether that be networking with faculty and staff, we’re hoping that they will build those long-term relationships.” The team at SASS wants to provide an accurate depiction of what it means to be a first gen student and clear up any misconceptions about what it means to be one. First-gen individuals are those whose immediate parents did not complete a bachelor’s degree in college. Grandparents and siblings who have completed a bachelor’s degree do not affect a person’s status. “The Talent Search Program is excited to celebrate even more first-generation students throughout the month,” says Bekele. For more information about Talent Search and the pre-college programs they offer, visit the Talent […] “Ville Hosts First Gen Forward event  “

Nursing Alumna Achieves Dream Amid Terminal Diagnosis In an extraordinary display of determination and resilience, Dr. Jaima Brown-Kishbaugh graduated with her Doctor of Nursing Practice on December 14, fulfilling a lifelong dream even as she battles terminal breast cancer. Jaima, a triple Millersville University alumna, has her Bachelor of Science in Nursing (2011), Master of Science in Nursing (2014), and now, her DNP—an achievement that was both a professional and personal triumph. Jaima’s journey to her doctorate began in May 2022 when, after being declared cancer-free, she embarked on her DNP studies. However, her path took a devastating turn earlier this year when she learned her cancer had returned as stage 4, triple-negative breast cancer—one of the most aggressive forms of the disease. Despite the diagnosis, Jaima remained steadfast. “My goal was to die a doctor—it’s one of the things that was driving me,” she shared. Dr. Kelly Kuhns, Chair of Nursing at Millersville University praised Jaima’s unwavering spirit and the profound impact she has had on the nursing program. “Earning her DNP was on Jaima’s bucket list, and she worked diligently toward it. When it became clear this fall that her disease was terminal, the faculty rallied around her to help her achieve her goal of ‘dying a doctor.’ Her success is a testament to her grit and the love and support of her ‘nurse squad.'” “Without Dr. Kuhns and the nursing professors rallying behind me this would not have been possible,” says Jaima. “The nurse squad was definitely in my corner and made it happen.” Balancing her treatments, studies, and family life, Jaima persevered. “Some days I was so sick from chemo I couldn’t get off the couch,” she recalled. “I did telephone calls for work lying on the couch—I’d get up, take notes, and have to lie back down. I just did what I needed to do to get through that.” Her relentless determination reflects what she calls “the Brown way—the family way,” a mindset instilled by her father, where excellence and tenacity are non-negotiable. Jaima’s three children, including two younger kids aged 9 and 11, were in the audience on graduation day to witness her triumph. “Oh my gosh—I couldn’t stop smiling,” she said. “I’ve been in school for 20 years. Start to finish—10 years to get my master’s, and then I came back for my doctorate. I’m a go-getter. If I see something I want, it doesn’t matter the obstacles, I go for it.” Despite her illness preventing her from practicing as a nurse practitioner, Jaima has not stopped giving back to the profession she loves. She continues to teach one class per semester as an adjunct faculty member, driven by her passion for nursing education. “One of my duties as a nurse is giving back to the profession, and I do that by teaching. It makes my heart happy.” Her outlook on life remains inspiring. “Being terminal makes your priorities a little different,” she said. “I have stuff to do before I leave.” Jaima plans to continue chemotherapy treatments and is pursuing care at MD Anderson Cancer Center in Texas, one of the leading institutions for cancer treatment. “Your mind has so much to do with everything—the willpower to keep going matters. I’m aiming to blow past the 1-2 years they gave me.” The upcoming holidays will be spent surrounded by family and friends, a silver lining Jaima holds close. “One of the benefits of dying is that everyone comes to see you a lot. Being with them makes my heart happy.” As Jaima reflects on her journey, she hopes her story inspires others to pursue their dreams, no matter the obstacles. “You can do it. Whatever life puts in front of you, go after it. I’m a firm believer that anything is possible if you put your mind to it.” Jaima’s story is one of courage, persistence, and hope—a testament to the indomitable spirit of a nu […] “Nursing Alumna Achieves Dream Amid Terminal Diagnosis”

A Yuletide Journey: Millersville's Icelandic Music Video The Yule Cat, a larger-than-life fictional creature from Icelandic folklore, has been brought to life in a chilling new music video. The project, a collaborative effort between the Music Business Technology program at Millersville University and a team of talented musicians and filmmakers from In the Wee hours, offers a unique blend of rock music and captivating visuals. “Nearly two dozen students were involved in making the film in some capacity from production coordinator to student composers,” says Dr. Barry Atticks, associate professor of Music Business Technology at Millersville University. The filming was memorable, from exploring ancient cemeteries to witnessing breathtaking sunrises over black sand beaches. The team also forged strong bonds with the local crew and young actors who brought the story to life. Atticks first encountered the Yule Cat legend during a trip to Iceland. Intrigued by the tale of a giant, monstrous cat that devours children who haven’t received new clothes for Christmas, he delved deeper into Icelandic folklore. Attics states that he “was drawn to the dark and mysterious aspects of the legend,” and adds, “It’s a perfect fit for a horror-themed Christmas short film.” The team conducted extensive research to accurately portray the Yule Cat and its historical context. They explored the legend’s origins, which date back to medieval times, and its connection to Iceland’s textile industry. “We wanted to stay true to the folklore while adding our own creative interpretation,” Atticks says. Producing a music video in Iceland presented a unique set of challenges. The team had to navigate logistical hurdles, such as securing filming permits and hiring local crew members. The biggest challenge, however, was bringing the Yule Cat to life. “We experimented with various techniques, including practical effects and CGI,” Atticks reveals. “The final result is a terrifying creature that captures the essence of the legend.” Atticks hopes the music video will entertain viewers and spark interest in Icelandic folklore. “We want to share Iceland’s rich cultural heritage with a wider audience,” he says. By bringing the Yule Cat to life, we’re paying homage to this fascinating legend and inviting people to explore the darker side of Icelandic folklore.” The students involved include: On location for the movie: Kaitlyn Myers Em Haas Aden Getz Zoey Noble Jessica Rowze Isabella Dayton Ethan Bathurst Sydney Rauchut Students involved in song production who did not travel: Dylan Gehringer Ryan Leash Marek Starry Lucy Kosoff Elizabeth Allen Jillian Dolan Merle Herring Caleb Marcott Erin McCarty Yusuf Miller Ryan Bliss You can watch the video on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXUJYelC3OU More information on the project is available here.

Breathe Easy with a Rewarding Career The demand for respiratory therapists has surged in recent years, driven by several factors. An aging population, increasing prevalence of respiratory illnesses, and advancements in pulmonary medical technology have contributed to this growing need. Moreover, the COVID-19 pandemic underscored the critical role of respiratory therapists in caring for critically ill patients, further emphasizing the profession’s importance. “Covid accentuated the need for respiratory therapists because of the sudden increase in respiratory patients, extremely long working hours, and high-stress levels,” says Elaine Chrissos, Program Director of the Respiratory Therapy Program at Millersville. “We have had an ongoing shortage of respiratory therapists before the pandemic.” Millersville’s program offers two paths within the biology department: Biology/Respiratory Therapy: This rigorous 4 ½ year track leads to a Bachelor of Science in Biology degree and a certificate in Respiratory Therapy, providing a strong scientific foundation for your career. Allied Health/Respiratory Therapy: This 3 ½ year program allows you to enter the workforce sooner and earn a Bachelor of Science in Allied Health Technology and a certificate in Respiratory Therapy. All students complete rigorous coursework before starting a challenging and rewarding 19-month professional phase. During this clinical practicum, students rotate through healthcare facilities like UPMC Lititz, UPMC Harrisburg and Lancaster General Hospital, gaining invaluable hands-on experience. “Nothing is more rewarding than possessing the knowledge needed to save lives and being a small percentage of the population that can nourish the sick, care for the weak and revive those who have lost all hope to live,” says Morgan Klaiss, senior respiratory therapy student at Millersville. “Of course, the job security that comes with being in a field that is in dire need of help is also a rewarding thought knowing people will need me right away.” Millersville University boasts a long and respected history in respiratory therapy education. The program has been continuously accredited since its inception in 1982. “Many people are unaware of the vital role RTs play in patient care,” says Chrissos. “These highly skilled professionals are often at the forefront of critical care, working alongside doctors and nurses to ensure patients breathe easily. Millersville University’s program equips you with the knowledge, skills, and experience to thrive in this dynamic and rewarding field.” For more information on the respiratory therapy program at Millersville, visit […] “Breathe Easy with a Rewarding Career”

Keeping Invasive Species Out A collaborative study involving Millersville University students, alumni and faculty sheds light on the problem of invasive species across various U.S. regions. This project, led by Dr. Aaron M. Haines, professor of biology at Millersville, included contributions from current and former students as well as researchers from institutions like Stony Brook University, William and Mary, and the Virginia Institute of Marine Science. “Hawaii and U.S. Pacific Island territories face the most significant invasive species challenges in the United States, followed closely by Florida and the West Coast,” says Haines. “While Pennsylvania’s issues with invasive species are not as severe, the state still contends with around 300 invasive species, including 140 invasive plant species, 60 aquatic animals, and various pathogens, insects and birds.” A full list of Pennsylvania’s invasive species can be found here. The team’s study highlights the urgent need for awareness and action in the face of this growing problem. The data has already informed practical work and been integrated into academic settings to support future research and community education. “The study is not only advancing our understanding of invasive species but also enriching learning experiences for students,” says Haines. He has incorporated this extensive dataset into several courses, including Conservation Biology, Mammalogy and Wildlife Ecology and Management. “The data from this study allows students to engage directly with real-world ecological issues,” he shared. Dr. Christopher R. Stieha, associate professor of biology at Millersville and a co-researcher, worked with Millersville biology students to analyze the data, conduct background research, and present findings. “To me, this study is about interactions among groups of organisms, whether that interaction is competition, predation or herbivory,” says Stieha. “We have learned that a one-size-fits-all attempt at a solution to invasive species will not work,” says Stieha. “But we do have a good understanding of how to handle these situations individually.  As a case study, this emphasizes the importance of identifying and understanding processes occurring in your systems.” The group’s paper, “The Impact of Invasive Alien Species on Threatened and Endangered Species” was recently published. The project was made possible through the contributions of Millersville alumni, including Delaney Costante, currently pursuing her doctorate at Stony Brook University, Dr. Matthias Leu, professor of biology at William and Mary, and Dr. Robert E.

Lombardos Receive Eckert Philanthropic Award The annual presentation of the Susan and Gerald Eckert Philanthropic Service Endowment Award was held on Oct. 30. This year, it was awarded to Dr. Samuel N. Lombardo ‘07H and Dena M. Lombardo. The endowment award is selected based on exemplary service and philanthropy in advancing the mission of public higher education. Innovative ideas or practices assisting public higher education are considered part of the selection criteria. “Our objectives were to appropriately recognize the impact of those giving of their time and treasure that improves the human condition and our community,” says Gerald Eckert. As a part of the recognition, the Lombardos will choose a University program to receive the annual spendable income from the endowment. The Lombardos join the small group of previous recipients who have achieved this award. The Lombardos are members of MU’s Fiat Lux Society, a giving society at Millersville University that recognizes generous donors who have contributed to the institution. Each member of the society gained their status by pledging $1 million or more to the University. The Lombardos have played a significant role in some of the University’s facilities including the zero-energy Lombardo Welcome Center and for helping fund the upcoming transformation of Brooks Hall into the Lombardo College of Business. Samuel Lombardo is the founder, former CEO and chairman emeritus of The Benecon Group, founder of ConnectCare3 and is the owner of Lombardo’s Restaurant, his Italian American family restaurant in Lancaster.

Choosing the Perfect Christmas Tree As the holiday season approaches, many families are preparing to pick out their Christmas trees. We spoke to Dr. Chris Hardy, professor of biology and curator of the herbarium at Millersville University. He talked about selecting and caring for the perfect tree. Despite the heat and drought this summer and in recent months, Hardy says late-season dryness shouldn’t impact Christmas trees. “Our late-season drought should have no effect on trees because the trees were not growing much anyway at that point,” meaning they remained resilient to the harsh weather conditions. What’s the best-smelling tree? “Most conifers smell nice, so people generally choose a tree based on size and looks,” says Hardy. “However, five fir species – Balsam, Canaan, Douglas, Fraser and Concolor – are generally known for smelling nice.” Having a tree that retains its needles after being decorated means less mess in the house. “Firs are the champions of needle retention, with Fraser and Canaan firs leading the pack,” says Hardy. “On the other hand, spruce trees, while beautiful, are known to shed needles more quickly once cut.” Freshness matters. Hardy recommends cutting your own tree or checking pre-cut trees carefully. “We cut our own tree in my family because it’s fun. An added benefit is that our tree is fresh that way,” says Hardy. “If buying a pre-cut tree, shake the tree and run your hand along the branches – the needles should not readily fall off if it was cut recently. Buy your tree early and stick the trunk in a bucket of water, upright on the back porch to keep it hydrated until you plan to bring it in. That’s better than having it sit dry at the pre-cut Christmas tree lot.” Once indoors, keeping your tree hydrated is essential. A freshly cut Christmas tree may consume a significant amount of water in the first week, so check and refill the water daily. Skip the additives—plain water is all your tree needs. “The National Christmas Tree Association says the best thing for your tree is good ole water,” says Hardy. “Additives such as sugar, bleach and aspirin do not work, do not prolong the life of a tree and can actually have a variety of negative outcomes for the tree. For example, sugar would encourage the growth of fungus and mold and cause your tree to look and smell bad.” For families who have young children Hardy says while blue spruce or Norway spruce are beautiful trees that were once the favorite trees of choice among Americans, they can be rather prickly. “The Blue spruce is especially prickly and could discourage young kids from wanting to help decorate,” says Hardy. “As for pets, I’m not sure but perhaps a prickly spruce may be a good deterrent to a pet from playing with the tree.” Happy tree hunting!         […] “Choosing the Perfect Christmas Tree”

New Course Helps Educators Master AI As artificial intelligence continues to shape various industries, educators are increasingly looking for ways to integrate this technology into the classroom. A new, comprehensive course designed by Millersville University’s Dr. Ollie Dreon, professor of Educational Foundations, offers an in-depth, hands-on approach to learning and teaching with AI. “With AI becoming an integral part of our world, this course is an essential resource for educators looking to stay ahead of the curve,” says Dreon. “By learning how to teach with, teach about, and learn alongside AI, educators will be better equipped to prepare their students for the challenges and opportunities of a rapidly evolving technological landscape. The International Society for Technology in Education, a nonprofit organization that helps educators use technology to revolutionize learning, obtained a grant from Microsoft to support Dreon in developing the online course. Millersville joined the Educator Preparation Programs for Digital Equity and Transformation, a partnership between ISTE, the U.S. Department of Education, and the American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education. Dr. Lara Willox, Dean of the College of Education and Human Services, emphasized the importance of staying at the forefront of best practices in teacher preparation. “Millersville is renowned for preparing exceptional educators, and the collaboration with ISTE and AACTE offers a unique opportunity to engage with cutting-edge technological advancements in education,” she said. “I met folks from ISTE at AACTE, and we talked about how we needed to prepare pre-service teachers to teach with AI,” says Dreon. “After a few conversations, they reached out and asked if I would develop the course.” In addition to being offered across the United States, the 5-hour course will be translated into Spanish and offered to teacher candidates in Mexico, Puerto Rico, and Columbia. Dreon says teacher candidates who complete the course will receive a certificate. He also plans to use modules from the course within his classes at Millersville. “The course is structured across five modules that blend multimedia content, interactive activities, and self-paced projects to help educators understand AI’s potential and pitfalls,” says Dreon. “It begins with a foundational overview of AI and progresses through practical applications and ethical considerations, culminating in a final assessment that certifies teacher candidates’ understanding. Each of the five modules is carefully crafted to guide educators through different aspects of AI—both as a tool for learning and as a topic to teach in the classroom.” The course is designed to be flexible, allowing teacher candidates to learn at their own pace. Each module includes multimedia content and interactive activities to check understanding, so teachers can immediately apply what they’ve learned. At the end of the course, participants will take a quiz to assess their understanding. The course allows unlimited attempts to reach an 80% passing score, ensuring that every participant can succeed. Upon completion, teacher candidates will receive a digital certificate to document their achievements and add to their professional development […] “New Course Helps Educators Master AI”
