Congratulations to Nathaniel Fouch (law) who published The Education Wars Return to Ohio in The New York University Brennan Center for Justice's State Court Report. The article describes a recent trial court ruling which declared Ohio's private school voucher system unconstitutional. Fouch, who specializes in state constitutional law, analyzed the ruling and gave the history of the relevant provisions and some predictions as to how the case might turn out on appeal.
Kudos to Becky Anderson (nursing) who earned her credential as a Certified Nurse Educator (CNE). Anderson completed and passed the certification examination this summer. A CNE is a registered nurse who has specialized training and certification in teaching nursing students, staff nurses, or patients. The credential is awarded by the National League for Nursing (NLN) in the United States and is considered the professional standard for excellence in nursing education.
Congratulations to Greg Belliveau (English) who was accepted to present The Lascaux Choice: When Student Journals Meet Machine Vision—Art’s Next Milestone at MediaFest25 - College Media Association. AI is the new printing press—or the new Pandora’s box. Join us for The Lascoux Choice, a student literary magazine panel that asks how we balance fear, opportunity, and creativity in this moment of change. The Lascoux Choice invites us to stand where the first artists once did in the caves of Lascaux, torchlight flickering on walls filled with images that marked the beginning of human expression. Today, student writers, editors, and artists face another turning point: artificial intelligence. Like the printing press and the digital revolution before it, AI is reshaping how we write, edit, publish, and imagine.
