Prof. Karshner publishes book on healing through creative writing

After spending 15 years researching how literature can help people to better understand and empathize with others, Professor Kimberly Karshner was excited when a publisher solicited her after a conference, asking if she’d ever considered working on a book about the use of storytelling to heal sexual trauma. Teens are at the highest risk of being sexually assaulted, Karshner said. In her 23 years of teaching creative writing, Karshner had many students who were victims of sexual assault and had written about it in her classes. One of the main components of sexual trauma for survivors is feeling silenced or feeling that they don’t have a voice. Literature and writing empower survivors by providing a means to begin an active healing process.
“I feel like writing is a huge component of moving through [the healing process], moving through feelings,” Karshner explained. “Creative writing can be a great way to work through feelings, and not only those related to sexual trauma or abuse.”
The book is titled, “Voices From the Wreckage: Young Adult Voices in the #MeToo Movement,” and includes chapters written by many contributors. When she put out a call for papers, Karshner was overwhelmed by the response she received from scholars who wanted to contribute something on this topic. Each of the chapter authors in the book introduced different perspectives, and several focused on LGBTQ characters and voices that are newly emerging in young adult literature. The #MeToo movement was very vocal during the time that this book was being written and focused on survivors finding their voices and identities as well as their right to speak out about sexual trauma.
Karshner serves as an editor for North Coast Review, a literary journal that publishes writing and artwork by students, faculty, staff, and alumni of Lorain County Community College. It was there that she came across Alexandros “Alex” Nicolaou’s “Birdie,” and knew immediately that it would be the perfect cover for her book. The subject appears pensive and the colors set a somber tone, while the lighting of the portrait portrays the potential for hope and healing.
“Birdie” is a self-portrait that was Nicolaou’s final project for his Figure Drawing class at LCCC. He worked on this project from home during the COVID-19 pandemic and explained that he wanted to capture the feeling of hopeless optimism in “Birdie.” Nicolaou’s passion for art took off during high school and he loves that he can create anything that he can think of. He started off by drawing people and likes to work on projects where he can use his artwork to make people laugh. Art helped him with his critical thinking skills, particularly in software development courses, because it isn’t easy to translate an idea into art and doing so forces you to find solutions to complex problems, he said. Alex Nicolaou graduated from LCCC with an Associate of Arts.
Kimberly Karshner received three degrees from Bowling Green State University: an undergraduate in Art and creative writing, a master’s in Scientific and technical communication, and a master’s in literature. Karshner will be teaching another creative writing class this fall, and there are a wide variety of art classes available this summer and fall.
Voices From the Wreckage will be available through the Bass Library as an e-book, and a print copy has been ordered for circulation. More information on the book can be found at https://vernonpress.com/book/1684 and the book is available on Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/Voices-Wreckage-Young-Movement-Sociology/dp/1648896057
Support services are available through LCCC’s Advocacy and Resource Center (ARC) to help students with advice, resources, and connections for a wide variety of challenges that students face. The ARC office is on the first floor of the Bass Library building and additional information is available at https://www.lorainccc.edu/support-services/arc.

About 10 years ago, then-LCCC student Drew Scofield was captivated by photography. One day he decided to venture down to The Collegian and asked Professor Cliff Anthony, adviser to the student newspaper, if his pictures could be featured in the school newspaper. Scofield, a computer science geek, specifically web design, took all Journalism courses and graduated with his journalism certificate from L

CCC. From that point on, Scofield has not looked back and made a name for himself in the Journalism Industry by winning three Emmys from the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences — Central Great Lakes Chapter, among other honors.
During a recent interview with Journalism students, Scofield gave numerous tips and advice to them. When asked how many people think it is a “dying career.” Scofield replied, “Professionally, after 10 years, I have seen it all, layoffs, firings, etc. Those are the trend of any job. There is still a need to get the news out, and people want to hear it. There will always be a need for someone to tell a story, whether it be print, TV, or online.”
Darryl Tucker, the managing editor for The Morning Journal, saw a bright future in Scofield. Tucker was visiting LCCC as a guest speaker to talk with Scofield and his classmates. Before coming to the class, Tucker had previously read some of Scofield’s stories in The Collegian. At the end of his talk, Tucker offered him a job at The Morning Journal. Scofield accepted the job, while still attending LCCC.
For two years, Scofield was the city reporter for North Ridgeville and later became the crime reporter. Scofield has since moved on from The Morning Journal and now works for WEWS Channel 5 in downtown Cleveland as the digital producer for the TV station.
For eight straight years, Scofield has been a part of the team at Channel 5 and has even racked up the Emmys. His first Emmy was awarded in 2019 for his coverage of the flash flooding on Middle Bass Island near Cedar Point.
Scofield’s recent Emmy was for his 2021 story on Homelessness in Ashtabula.
Scofield received his most notable Emmy in 2020 for his story that featured the Sidaway Bridge. The Sidaway Bridge is a historic landmark that runs from Sidaway Avenue to East 65  Street on Cleveland’s East side. The bridge played a huge role during the Civil Rights movement that separated the black neighborhood from the white neighborhood.

Minority entrepreneurs showcase their ventures

Known as the month of love, February boasts popular holidays such as Groundhogs Day and Super Bowl Sunday.
February also kicks off Black History Month, a time to celebrate Black Culture, heritage, and African American history. As part of Black History Month celebrations, Lorain County Community College put together an African American Pop-Up Shop to support Minority Entrepreneurs and jumpstart their careers and businesses.
The event was organized by NEO LaunchNET and took place in the Campana Center.
“This is the second time we have done a pop-shop in honor of Black History Month. We reach out to our businesses we have helped and other NEO LaunchNET in the region,” Janice Lapina, program director for NEO LaunchNET.
Lapina, who has a doctorate in Education, said, “Under-represented populations are overlooked in all industries. However, access and awareness are helping to shed light and open opportunities to them.”
Matthew Poyle the Program Coordinator of NEO LaunchNET said, “I am very happy for this great turnout and to be able to help showcase the different businesses as they start their journey.”
Eleven minority entrepreneurs got the opportunity to show their products to the college community.
The creativity factor was not an issue as there were many unique products to gaze upon and purchase. The Covid 19 pandemic played a huge role in the jumpstart to most of the entrepreneurs at the event.
Deana Sutton, the owner of Design Passion & Purpose, was one of many people who were affected by the pandemic. Sutton who previously worked for Cleveland City Schools was laid off. She needed something to keep herself occupied during these tough times. Sutton got the idea from her son who was making t-shirts at the time. Sutton said, “I was so intrigued by my son who was making t-shirts at the time that I decided to get my own machine.”
Sutton’s business makes clothing and other miscellaneous items with empowering and inspirational messages displayed on them. Sutton’s main goal of her business is to “motivate and inspire” African Americans to be culturally aware of who they are.
Like Sutton most of the entrepreneurs wanted to encourage African Americans to feel strongly about who they are.
Secunda Starr, the owner of Thoughtful Reflections, is making it her mission to encourage African American Women of all ages to practice positive self-talk. Self-Talk is the endless stream of unspoken thoughts that run through our heads every day.
Starr said, “I want to empower women to be confident throughout their daily lives”. A member of the entrepreneurship program at Kent State University, Starr has been making decorative mirrors and glass mugs with motivational messages such as “Black Girl Magic” and “Love Yourself.” Starr feels “very strong and compassionate” about her business and is confident that she will succeed in the future.

LCCC beefs up cyber security

Simon Jones
Staff Reporter

Ever since the conception of the first publicly accessible PC in 1974 by Intel Corp., the protection of data has always been a factor. On the other hand, countless data breaches have left those in the cybersecurity field at constant war with private information thieves.

At LCCC, a team of 47 full-time cyber security engineers strives to protect the college’s system from hackers. “They’re able to specialize in a variety of different departments and help run the place more smoothly,” Donald Huffman, LCCC’s chief information officer, explained.
“Think about cybersecurity like a robbery. You can always keep putting new locks on your doors and installing new security systems but these robbers are always going to look for a new way inside your house,” Hoffman said.

Sometimes the result of a cybersecurity breach may not even be triggered by someone from the outside.

“All it can take is for someone to have a bad day or they aren’t paying too close attention for them to click on a phishing email in order for a whole network to be infected,” warned Huffman, who is the chief information officer at LCCC. “If something looks untrustworthy, do some research on it and use common sense.”

To avoid the large amounts of fraudulent sites and emails that one might encounter, there are certain antiviruses and programs that can be installed.

Antiviruses like Norton, MacAfee, and Malwarebytes are safe options. However, they are not always 100% effective,” Huffman said. “If you aren’t willing to get those, then finding some with relatively high ratings should also suffice but do exercise caution.”

Even with cyber-attacks being preventable, breaches are not entirely uncommon.

According to dataprot.net, the total damage caused by cyber-attacks reached $6 trillion in 2022, and on average small businesses spend less than $500 on cybersecurity per year.

Electric charging stations planned as part of sustainability plan

Sharayah Goodwin
Staff Writer
          Tucked away on the eastern end of the North Parking Lot-6, the unimposing Plant Services building could be easily overlooked. Inside the building, Leo Mahoney, director of Physical Plant and Construction Management, has been hard at work finding ways to make the college’s main campus in Elyria more sustainable. During the five years that Mahoney has been at LCCC, numerous measures have been implemented by his office toward maintaining sustainability.

Mahoney is currently working with the Northeast Ohio Areawide Coordinating Agency (NOACA) to bring electric vehicle charging stations to the main campus. The charging stations will be funded by grants for installing charging stations at no cost to the college and to other parts of the country. Federal funds will be distributed by NOACA to fund the project, which is still up for public bidding.

This is great news for faculty and students who drive electric vehicles soon as the U.S. races toward the net-zero goals of the Paris Climate Agreement, according to https://www.un.org/en/climatechange/net-zero-coalition.

LCCC will receive two dual-port charging stations, providing charging availability to four electric vehicles simultaneously. These new charging stations would be installed in Lot 8 as soon as the Fall of 2023. At this time, no fee structure has been identified for the use of the stations.

         Current plans are to offer the use of them at no cost initially, pending a review of usage and cost to the school.

          Mahoney’s other recent project was an energy performance contract of $16 million. This contract brought about many of the recent changes on campus, saving a lot of energy and money. The COVID-19 pandemic brought about unique challenges as well as advantages during implementation. Empty buildings and classrooms allowed crews nearly easy access, and upgrades went quickly and smoothly. Some energy-saving measures included upgrading to LED lighting, low-flow toilet fixtures, and efficient HVAC systems. Electric consumption plummeted from approximately 2.3 million kWh to 1.5 million kWh. 

         Over two years following the implementation of these measures, LCCC saved over $1 million in energy costs, about 40% over the energy-saving guarantee of the contract. These numbers might further improve as more students return to campus. One reason for this is that the 28 buildings on campus rely heavily on body heat to maintain temperature during winter. Fewer students on campus translate to additional stress on HVAC systems and greater energy consumption. 

          LCCC has also been working on sustainable approaches to maintaining its buildings and grounds. 

          Four of the more recently constructed buildings on campus were awarded LEED Silver status (Leadership in Energy Efficient Design): Bass Library, Lab Sciences, and the Richard Desich SMART Commercialization Center (DEC and SMART). 

          The Plant Services does its construction cleanup, sorting materials for recycling. They also compost yard waste for use in other areas of campus and ceased cutting the grass to allow a meadow to grow, supporting plant and animal life. 

          There are several easy ways students can help with sustainability at LCCC. 

          It can be as simple as being conscientious, respecting school property so that it must be replaced less often, and by throwing garbage or recyclables into any of the 500-plus receptacles around the campus. 

          A new streamlined process for recycling has recently taken the guesswork out of recycling on campus. Recently, all receptacles on campus have been replaced with a single blue recycling bin. These new blue receptacles provide a single stream of recyclables that will be sorted off-campus.

Prof.  Ko publishes a scholarly philosophical book

Sharayah Goodwin
Staff Writer

Young Woon Ko, a professor of World Religion, has recently published a new book titled “The Non-Hierarchical Way from Yijing to Jeongyeok: A New Paradigm for East Meeting West.” Published in January 2023, it is the fourth book that Ko has written on theological and philosophical topics. It is a scholarly work that took Ko four to five years to complete. In The Non-Hierarchical Way, Ko explores Yijing and Jeongyeok from non-hierarchical viewpoints.

Professor Young Ko, Ph.D., with his new book.

“I wanted to challenge many scholars’ stereotypical assumptions on Yijing,” Ko said. Hierarchical worldviews focus on superiority, on ideas such as one gender, one race, or one species being superior to others. In Western ideology, this hierarchical view extends to conceptions of God, with humans being inferior to God.
Ko invites the reader to let go of these prejudices to interpret Yijing in a non-hierarchical way. He combines the ideas of psychologist Carl Jung, philosopher Alfred North Whitehead, anthropologist Rene Girard, and mathematician Georg Cantor to imagine a new interpretation of East Asian ideology that finds parallels with Western ideology.
Ko emphasized, “I demonstrate that God as the personal or impersonal [being] are not two different issues.” In his book, Ko reviews Kim Ilbu’s Jeongyeok, and provides evidence that it intensifies the correlation of opposites to challenge the reader’s assumption of ideas contained in Yijing as hierarchical.
Yijing, better known as “The Book of Changes,” is an ancient Chinese composite text that has become one of the most influential East Asian texts in the West. It is the oldest known book in Chinese literature. Yijing originated around the year 3000 BCE and was translated through oral tradition until it was put into writing during the Zhou Dynasty sometime around the year 1200 BCE. Later, East Asian ideologies, such as Confucianism and Daoism included ideas derived from Yijing, due to its influence in the region. The Yijing text takes a non-theistic religious approach, in contrast with Jeongyeok, and focuses on the process of change.
Ko studied abroad as an undergraduate, obtaining a bachelor’s degree in philosophy from Hanshin University in 1994. He later obtained a Master of Divinity from Boston University in 1998, and a Master of Theology from Harvard Divinity School in 2000. He received his Ph.D. from Vanderbilt University in 2004.
“The Non-Hierarchical Way from Yijing to Jeongyeok” is published by Lexington Books, a publishing imprint of Rowman & Littlefield Publishing, Inc. and is listed at $105.
An Amazon Kindle version of the book is available at https://www.amazon.com/Non-Hierarchical-Way-Yijing-Jeongyeok-Paradigm-ebook/dp/B0BQPRL8NK.

 

 

 

 

 

LCCC strives to recruit athletes, expand programs

Mark Poalson
JRNM 151

LCCC’s Athletic Department strives to excel in recruiting and expanding it programs.

For the past 35 years, Jim Powers has made it his mission to keep this tradition alive. Powers wears many hats. He is the assistant athletic director and head cross country coach, club sports coordinator, and associate professor in the Health and Science Division.

LCCC offers many sports and club activities to students and is always trying to look for new programs. However, Powers said, “Nothing new has been in the works just yet. We are going to stick with what we have until we get our numbers up from the Corona Virus.”

Fortunately, LCCC was one of the few colleges that was able to bounce back quickly and bring the sports programs back, according to Powers.

“Recruitment is always at the top of our minds, and we are doing everything we can to bring in athletes to LCCC,” Powers said, noting he and his team are trying to find new ways for recruitment, whether it be getting involved with local high school athletic directors, going to high school events, or even hosting sports camps at the college.

Powers, who graduated with his Bachelor of Science in Recreation Education from The Ohio State University and also graduated from Slippery Rock University of Pennsylvania with a Master of Education in Physical Education Administration.

Participating in college-level sports offers many benefits and advantages.

College sports provide opportunities to compete, succeed and learn at a higher level of play. Even though LCCC competes at the Division=3 level, Powers believes playing a sport while attending LCCC is a must.

“Here at LCCC, playing a sport will benefit you (students) in the long run,” Powers said. “It’s a great added value to yourself and your resume, and we have a great reputation as a college.”

To learn more about the sport or club activities, contact Powers at 440-366-7662.

Grappling with school post Columbine

Destiny Torres
Executive Director 

Generation Z have never known a world without the fear and anxieties of a shooting happening at their school. They were born into an era shaped by Columbine and Sandy Hook, and have grown up wincing at loud noises in the halls and practicing active shooter drills.

“No one should have to worry”

“I remember doing drills in the third grade,” Said Savannah Holder. “My teacher told us ‘Alright guys, get into your hiding space’ and I hid behind her desk. No kid should have to worry about that.”

They are all too familiar with the stinging pain as another school shooting is announced in the news and are used to the debates of gun control that follow. In the past decade alone there has been roughly fifteen mass school shootings that have taken the lives of innocent students and teachers.

“The first big school shooting I remember hearing about was in Parkland,” Said Hannah Liddy, referencing the shooting that took the lives of seventeen students and teachers in Florida in 2018. “My school had a walkout in support of gun control.”

Inducing anxiety

According to The American Psychological Association, 90% of Generation Z have experienced some form of anxiety in their lifetime and for some that has been because of the attacks in schools.

“After the Parkland shooting, I was afraid of going to school,” Said Liddy. “I remember a chip bag popped in the lunchroom and everyone freaked out. We were all terrified we were next.”

Facing reality

For some students, the terrors of school shootings are more than a fear but almost a reality.

“There was a real threat my senior year,” Said Kieira White. “My best friend and I were walking in the hall after school and were dragged into a classroom by a teacher. No one told us what was going on, I thought we were going to die.”

According to White, the threat was a false alarm but she still remembers the fear she felt as she held her best friend in that dark classroom.

“Whenever I’m in a room on campus, I make sure I know where each and every exit is,” said Holder. “So that I know exactly where the attacker can come in and where I can get out. That is the sad reality of our lives.”

Taking its toll

The everyday threat of going to school has even taken its toll on future teachers. Xander Taylor, an education major at LCCC, says that school threats are becoming a hardship in his career choice.

“I am afraid it’s going to get to the point with us talking about these events that paranoia is going to take over,” he said. Taylor fears that soon homeschooling will become more prevalent as a way to avoid these shootings. “These shootings are going to put a damper on my career and although I am not a teacher yet, I am already worried about my future students.”

“Not enough”

As for some of Generation Z, they feel as if America is not doing enough to keep them safe in their schools.

“I get that the Second Amendment is a thing,” said Liddy, “But when that was made, they didn’t have automatic assault rifles. They didn’t have to fear that one day someone would finally snap and that would be the end.”

“These drills are so common place and its ridiculous,” said Taylor. “No one should have to worry about sending their kid to elementary school and be afraid they will get shot. It’s terrifying.”

Music for the troubled mind

Listening to music is one thing most college students can bond over.

However, students may be unaware of the several benefits of including music into their curriculum, especially at a young age.

“I don’t know so much about this age, but I know fifth-graders are better readers, better at math,” said Jeffrey Meyers, jazz band instructor at Lorain County Community College.

An introduction to music at a young age helps people to support their left-to-right reading development, as well as helping in math when they have to break down notes and rhythms.

Students learn the value of sustained effort to achieve excellence and the concrete rewards of hard work throughout music study, according to an article written by Carolyn Phillips, former executive director of the Norwalk Youth Symphony, Connecticut.

Phillips added that students involved in music education also earn higher grades in school and perform better on standardized testing.

Music students, on average, scored about 31 points higher than average in reading, 23 points higher than average in math, and another 31 points higher than average in writing, according to several studies conducted on the topic.

“Music comprehension is extremely important, even at a young age and can lead to much more,” says Meyers. Music also evokes feelings and emotions, whether that be positive or negative, and involving oneself in music classes also produces that same effect.

“If I have a crappy day at work, the first thing I do is get my horn out,” said Meyers. For him, among many other instrumentalists, music offers an outlet for stress. There is also the excitement of hearing certain famous composers and being able to play difficult passages or pieces.

According to former music student, Landen Maderia, “I noticed I felt a lot better when I was in band. I loved making music of course, but I also loved being with my friends.”

“There’s a social aspect, being a part of a team, and paying attention to detail,” said Meyers, “You can do this for the rest of your life.”

The troubles with Thanksgiving prices

Gregory Visnyai 
A Correspondent 

You can expect to pay more this Thanksgiving for food—turkey in particular—as the price for fresh, boneless, skinless turkey breast has risen from last year’s price of $3.16 per pound to $6.70 per pound this year, according to the American Farm Bureau Federation.

The price increase, according to fb.com, is due to the bird flu as well as inflation in general. Not only Turkey prices have risen, but other retail foods as well have seen an 11.4% increase in price in August.

Rising Prices

Bennett Sulen, a student at LCCC studying communications, said that he hasn’t noticed the higher price for turkey yet. “But I do know that like a lot of like goods around Thanksgiving are definitely inflated…I can imagine it’s probably gone up just based on how much everything else has,” said Sulen.

For himself, Sulen said the price increase won’t affect him; yet, he said, “If I was in a situation where I was like literally on my own, and not really celebrating with my family, or if I was in charge of like cooking for a large group of people, I would probably get a different type of bird.”

Money squeeze

Reegan Anthony, a student at LCCC pursuing an Associate of Arts degree with a focus on social work, said that she has heard about the increased price.

She too said that the higher price won’t affect her personally, but she said, “If it were me doing it, it probably would change things.”

When thinking about how it will affect other people, Anthony said, “I think it can make it harder for people who have to do more budgeting, as far as Thanksgiving, because if you’re spending more money on one thing, you know, you have less to spend on another.”

“More expensive this year”

“You can find a butterball turkey still at a reasonable, budget-friendly price…if you wanted to buy organic—you know, heirloom breeds—it’s going to be more expensive this year,” said Bradley Ball, culinary program chef at LCCC.

Every time Ball goes shopping for food, he has felt the effect of the higher prices and said, “I see it every day…and it’s more money.”

Bigger struggle

Yet, Ball said that his culinary experience has helped him absorb the price and make every dollar go further. For other people, Ball said that people “…that already struggle with food insecurity are going to have a harder time. Like, the people that have a hard time are going to have a harder time.”

Turkey alternatives that are still appropriate for Thanksgiving he suggested were Cornish hens, ham, and the vegetarian option of a stuffed, whole-roasted pumpkin. “Thanksgiving is really about the sides, so you can skip the turkey all together and just have more sides,” said Ball.
