FAU Launches Student Activism Fellowship

FAU Launches Student Activism Fellowship

BOCA RATON, Fla. (May 15, 2018) – Florida Atlantic University’s Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters, in partnership with Barb Schmidt, recently launched a program for high school students titled “The Barb Schmidt Fellowship: Cultivating Community Involvement, Activism and Social Change.” Students can apply for the fellowship and earn six FAU credits through weekend workshops and activities during the 2018-19 school year. There is also a $1,000 stipend for participants who successfully complete both semesters. Students must submit a completed application and two written recommendations (at least one from a teacher) by Friday, June 15. To view the application visit fau.edu/barb-schmidt-fellowship/.

The goal of the program is to provide student leaders with a platform to develop the skills and knowledge needed to initiate, execute and sustain a social movement through peer mentorship and workshops led by social influencers and FAU faculty. Students will learn key professional and technical skills from experts in news media analysis, design of social movements, social and digital media advocacy, presentation sills, fundraising and nonprofit organizing, video production, campaign operations and more. After exploring the workings of social movements and gaining the expertise needed, students will then work on their own project of choice, which will be presented at the end of the fellowship and launched as a real intervention related to the project’s goals.

The fellowship is open to students who have completed their freshman year of high school and who have a 3.0 grade point average or higher. Students also need to be living in Palm Beach or Broward counties and qualify for dual-enrollment at FAU. Thirty students will be accepted into the program.

“We have all been inspired by what youth leaders are doing to make our world a better place. We want to support the work being done by facilitating students’ growth in community engagement and social change efforts,” said Michael Horswell, Ph.D., dean of FAU’s Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters. “Becoming a Barb Schmidt Fellow will help students gain essential skills for successful organizing, foster partnerships through networking with other activists, university faculty and community leaders, and enable the launch of multiple projects for the benefit of our communities.”

During the fall semester, participants will attend class two Saturdays per month from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at FAU. Fellows will explore the dynamics of creating, developing, and sustaining social movements through peer-to-peer and student-to-faculty interactive workshops designed to be a platform for student-driven activism and engagement.

Grounding this experience will be the introduction to and practice of mindfulness techniques to ensure the self-care and sustainability required for successful social movement work. Each participant is expected to use the fall classes to develop a project proposal, in consultation and guidance with faculty.

During the spring semester, fellows will attend class one Saturday per month from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at FAU. Students will work individually or in teams to design and implement their service-learning project. They will create a project portfolio to include all aspects of social movement development and implementation and prepare it for launch at the end of the semester.

“This fellowship was created to honor and support local students as they create positive change,” said Schmidt. “They are the future, and we need to support them in every way we can.”

A practitioner of mindfulness and meditation for more than 30 years, Schmidt is the author of the internationally bestselling book “The Practice: Simple Tools for Managing Stress, Finding Inner Peace, and Uncovering Happiness” and founder of the nonprofit organization Peaceful Mind Peaceful Life. Her mission is to bring mindfulness teachings to the community in the belief that outer peace begins through inner peace. She has been on more than 100 retreats and studied with teachers around the world, including the Dalai Lama.

 About the Norton Museum of Art

Founded in 1941, the Norton Museum of Art is recognized for its distinguished holdings in American, European, and Chinese art, and a continually expanding presence for Photography and Contemporary art. Its masterpieces of 19th century and 20th century European painting and sculpture include works by Brancusi, Gauguin, Matisse, and Picasso, and American works by Stuart Davis, Hopper, O’Keeffe, Pollock, and Sheeler.

 

The Norton presents special exhibitions, lectures, tours, and programs for adults and children throughout the year. In 2011, the Norton launched RAW (Recognition of Art by Women), featuring the work of a living female painter or sculptor and funded by the Leonard and Sophie Davis Fund/MLDauray Arts Initiative. In 2012, the Norton established the biennial, international Rudin Prize for Emerging Photographers in partnership with Beth Rudin DeWoody, named in honor of her late father, Lewis Rudin.

 

In 2016, the Norton broke ground for a visionary expansion designed by architecture firm Foster + Partners, under the direction of Pritzker Prize-winning architect Lord Norman Foster. The project reorients the Norton’s entrance to the main thoroughfare of South Dixie Highway, restoring the symmetry of the museum’s original 1941 design, and includes a new 42,000-square-foot West Wing that doubles education space, and increases gallery space for the Norton’s renowned collection. The transformation of the Museum’s 6.3-acre campus will create a museum in a garden, featuring new, verdant spaces and a sculpture garden.

 

The Norton is located at 1451 S. Olive Ave. in West Palm Beach, Florida, and during construction through July 15, 2018, is open Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday noon to 5 p.m. and Thursday, noon to 9 p.m., and is free to the public. Free parking and shuttle service is available at 1501 S. Dixie Highway. The Museum is closed on Mondays and major holidays, and will be closing for an extended period beginning on July 16 to complete interior construction and reinstall art. Reopening is scheduled for Feb. 9, 2019. For additional information, call (561) 832-5196, or visit www.norton.org.

At the end of each school year, CGMSGallery features the hard-working artists of Lake Worth High School.  This year, the gallery has set an entire month aside to honor all of the public school art teachers in the county.  The exhibit takes place at Clay Glass Metal Stone Gallery, 15 South J Street in Downtown Lake Worth.  Each week there will be a wine, cheese and dessert reception, and each Friday a different group of teaching artists will be featured.  Parking and the exhibition are free.  Children are welcome.

Schools all over the country have chosen to cut the arts out of the lives of our children.  Art teachers in public schools are often a casualty of this “economy.”  Palm Beach County Public Schools are fortunate in being wealthy in the numbers and dedication of teachers in our schools  who celebrate the arts and bring the joy of creation, color and form to our children.  Culture builds communities and the arts enhance the educational opportunities our children have access to.  Children do not learn linearly.  Some children learn to read when music is added to the curriculum. Some do better in math when painting is added.  Some understand science better when confronted with sculptural ratios.  Some relieve their daily stress by creating beauty with which  to surround themselves and their families.  Art, as an outlet for what ails you, is a gift to society.  Here are the teachers who love our children and who give them this gift.

Wireless Causes Cancer. Now What Do Parents Do?

Mommy Moments

Wireless Causes Cancer. Now What Do Parents Do?

By Cece Doucette

Parent, Tech Writer & Technology Safety Educator

The National Institutes of Health just reported wireless radiation is a clear carcinogen. An Italian study at the Ramazzini Institute reported similar findings of brain and heart tumors.

Like many parents, I started figuring out that excessive screen time can hurt our children, but I had no idea today’s wireless technology could be biologically hazardous too. I’d like to share with you how I found out.

I helped revive our local education foundation and ran seven campaigns to bring technology into our schools for what the wireless industry was telling our administrators we needed for the 21st Century Classroom.

Then an electrical engineer friend read a book called “Zapped” and tipped me off there could be something up with wireless technology and health. So, I began to investigate and helped my schools become the first in the nation to take precautionary steps with wi-fi.

The Science

I was astounded to find thousands of peer-reviewed published studies all over the world showing cell phones and towers, wi-fi routers, tablets, baby monitors, gaming devices, wearables, Bluetooth — and all other wireless gadgets – send and receive data via low-level, non-thermal, non-ionizing microwave radiation that is very harmful to all living organisms.

The Risks

It turns out cancer is just the tip of the iceberg. Other studies link our ubiquitous wi-fi exposures to infertility, DNA damage, Alzheimer’s and autism. 

Many are also suffering symptoms of electrical sensitivity but most doctors in the U.S. have not been trained yet to diagnose and treat microwave illnesses.

Electrical sensitivity symptoms often include one or more of the following: insomnia, headaches, nausea, dizziness, brain fog, cognitive impairment, fatigue, muscle ache, skin heating/flushing/tingling/numbing, nosebleeds and irregular heartbeats. 

Microwave radiation hits the central nervous system especially hard, and studies show it can also cause anxiety, depression, anger, behavior issues and suicidal ideation. It can open the blood-brain-barrier too which can lead to a host of neurological abnormalities.

The science indicates children, fetuses, the elderly and those with existing health conditions are especially vulnerable.

If you or a loved one are experiencing any of these issues, you might decide it’s time to do some investigating too. 

Big Tobacco Playbook

Harvard’s Captured Agency report explains how the wireless industry has known about the harm for years, but through powerful lobbying efforts they have influenced laws to protect corporate interests over public health. Through the power of advertising dollars, they have kept the biological effects out of the media.

Public Policy Protections

Massachusetts leads the nation with eight bills to address wireless radiation and public health. It will take time for public policy to catch up with the science though, and a lot of health issues can be addressed or averted in the interim with a little education.

Why is it urgent we don’t wait? The wireless industry and the FCC are looking to fast-track installation of toxic radiation-emitting cell antennas right inside our neighborhoods for 5G and the Internet of Things before the public catches on. Our world scientists are predicting this will trigger the worst public health crisis we’ve seen.

A Quick Education for You

On this journey I have had the privilege of volunteering with leading world scientists, doctors and technologists to form a non-profit that offers on-line courses to quickly bring folks up to speed.

For less than the cost of a movie ticket (to help cover operating expenses), in a half hour Wireless Education can teach you the science, the biological risks, and choices you can make to still use technology, but safely through hard-wired connections. 

Both the Schools & Families Course and the Corporate Induction Safety Course provide a handy tip sheet at the end with best practice reminders.

Generation Zapped

After taking the Wireless Education course(s) you might consider educating your friends and family too, as well as your doctors, schools and public servants.

The new film Generation Zapped is a great way to bring everyone into the fold. It just won Best Documentary at the D.C. Independent Film Festival and is being screened around the U.S. and the globe. 

The Blake Library in Stuart, Florida held a screening in April. Perhaps, after taking the Wireless Education course(s), you will feel empowered to host a screening too and start this important conversation in your community too.

Mother’s Day Gift Ideas

Mother’s Day Gift Ideas
Mother’s Day Gift Ideas 
By Cheryl Alker
 
A Healthy Mother’s Day Gift
 
Hands up – who loves their Mom? Of course we all do and, whilst we know we should be showing appreciation for her every day, Mother’s Day itself just reminds us that little bit more forcefully by ensuring we show her how much we care and love her on one special day.  Of course there are the usual cliché gifts like candies, flowers, plants, chocolates, champagne and wine. Generally speaking, all of the aforementioned are great Mother’s Day gift ideas but wouldn’t it be nice this year to think a little more outside of the box and thrill her with something that might have a positive impact on her health? Here’s a few ideas that might be worth your consideration.
 
Fitness Tracker
Thanks to advancements in technology, fitness trackers are available at many price points, styles, colors and capabilities. Unless you Mom is a seasoned marathon runner (in which case she will probably have one already) a basic version should suffice. I am sure most of us who have some sort of wearable fitness tracker can attest that it actually does make you mindful of your daily activity levels and with research pointing to regular low intensity activity for the aging population to help prevent heart disease, Alzheimer’s and many other ailments then it is the perfect gift of love.
 
A Grocery or Prepared Meal Subscription
As we are all aware fresh produce is essential to our overall health and wellbeing and getting wholesome nutrients on a daily basis is certainly vital as we age. Luckily, thanks to convenient grocery subscriptions and prepared meal plans, you can ensure your Mom is getting everything she needs and getting it delivered straight to her doorstep. If your mother is on her own and struggles to make the effort to cook for one why not look into a fully prepared meal service. There are so many great ones on offer these days who use organic, fresh produce to cook really healthy, balanced, portion controlled and, most importantly, tasty meals that just need heating up.
 
Spa Day
A gift of a massage, facial, or pedicure, in fact anything that helps your Mom reduce her overall stress is an incredibly thoughtful gift to give. We often don’t relate stress and Mom’s together but just because she might not have young children to run around after all day, a job to hold down, stress comes in many guises. Anyone who is suffering from excessive stress, whether it stems from personal or professional issues, can lead to a host of health concerns, from loss of sleep and appetite to serious anxiety and depression. Stress can have a major toll on physical health, too. Therefore, a day or just one treatment at your Mom’s local spa might be just the thing to give her some well needed TLC and relaxation.
 
A Course or Subscription to Her Favorite Hobby
Remember you Mom did have a life before you! What did you ever see her do that she loved?  Whatever it was see if there are local classes offering her favorite hobby. Giving her the gift of reigniting her passions with a class or series of classes, again shows you care and have taken notice of who she is as a human being.
 
 
The Healthiest Gift of All
You! Time spent with your Mom will be precious to her, so going out for a lunch, the movies or shopping will often be enough. Mind you, if you add you into the equation of any of the above mentioned gifts, i.e. going to the spa together, giving her the fitness tracker but going on a wonderful scenic walk together, attending those classes or cooking with her will take the gift to a new level. 
 
Show your mom how much you love her by staying active with her as nothing shows that you care like a gift that can improve her health and wellbeing!

Local Visionaries Join to Introduce New Florida Film College at G-Star Studios and Keiser U Flagship Campus

Local Visionaries Join to Introduce New Florida Film College at G-Star Studios and Keiser U Flagship Campus

West Palm Beach, Florida – May 2018 Dr. Arthur Keiser, Cofounder and Chancellor of Keiser University and Gregory Hauptner G-Star School of the Arts Founder and CEO of the G-Star Motion Picture Studios, have announced the establishment of the College of Cinematic Arts Keiser University at the G-Star Studios and the Keiser University Flagship Campus.

“This degree brings a new dimension to the Keiser University curriculum, as it is the first ‘arts oriented’ program to be offered by the institution. Given the extent to which information technology has been integrated into the film industry, its addition is a logical step for our university,” Keiser said.

 

While incorporating business principles, as well as more advanced coursework and a strong general education program, the curriculum’s interdisciplinary approach enables students to demonstrate their artistic expertise and application of business knowledge to enhance their career opportunities. Future filmmakers will be prepared to appreciate and apply cinematic arts skills and concepts, effectively communicate information using appropriate technologies, understand fundamentals of screenwriting, storytelling, structure, tension, suspense and more.

 

“The College of Cinematic Arts provides the opportunity for G-Star students to continue their professionally-related collegiate studies in West Palm Beach without relocating.  At the same time, the faculty of G-Star will be able to share their professional expertise with a collegiate film-student population from across the nation,” Hauptner said.

 

With the outstanding record of G-Star in providing quality secondary school film program graduates and educating future film industry related personnel, the Cinematic Arts Degree makes for an excellent match with the career, technical, business and professional foci of the Keiser University programs of study. The college offers both Associate of Arts (AA) and Bachelor of Arts (BA) degrees in an integrated format that allows AA graduates to continue to earn their BA while employed at one of several industry-related positions.

 

“Keiser University is fortunate to have the opportunity for its Flagship Campus to work with and utilize the facilities of G-Star, as the school is located nearby making travel and student and faculty exchanges convenient for all.  Working together while sharing personnel, facilities, and equipment can exponentially enhance both institutions,” said Keiser’s Flagship Campus President Dr. Gary Vonk.

 

“The program allows Keiser University to attract a national student base, given its desirable location in West Palm Beat, Florida,” said Dr. John Sites, Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs. “We are enthusiastic about working with G-Star’s professional personnel, and gratified that the two-year long process of program exploration and planning has been positively concluded.”

 

The degree is currently working its way through the requisite approval processes and plans call for it to be offered in the 2018-2019 academic year at the Flagship Campus of Keiser University, located on Military Trail in West Palm Beach, Florida, and the G-Star Studios and School of the Arts in Palm Springs, Florida.
