greetings from the vice president
TRANSCRIPT
GREETINGS FROM THE VICE PRESIDENT
Happy Fall! I hope your school year is off to a great start. We have a busy semester planned in University
Engagement with opportunities for every member of the ISU community. One opportunity that I would like to
share with you is our new, strengthened partnership with Deming Elementary and Sarah Scott Middle Schools.
We will be working with the schools to identify ways that the entire University can support student learning,
increase parent involvement, and provide resources and support to the teachers – many of whom are ISU
graduates. The Bayh College of Education has a long history of serving both of these schools and will be playing a
critical leadership role as we move forward. One simple way that everyone can get involved in this effort
immediately is by participating in the school supply drive that will be held in conjunction with the President’s fall
address. More information is included on page 14.
Another issue that I want to emphasize is career readiness. Incorporating career readiness as a core feature of
every student’s academic experience is the primary focus of Goal 2 of the 2016 strategic plan. Provost Licari and
I convened a working group this summer to discuss a process for achieving this goal in every undergraduate
major and the Foundational Studies program. Thanks to Darlene Hantzis, Brien Smith, John Conant, Linda
Maule, and Bryan Lubic for serving with this group. We will have some ideas and proposals to share with the
campus soon. In the meantime, if you have an idea for incorporating career readiness activities into a class,
student organization, student employment experience, or other activity, please reach out to Bryan Lubic or me.
We have resources available through the Focus Indiana grant to support activities related to career readiness.
Finally, I’d like to thank Darby Scism for her leadership of the Career Center over the past few years. Her
commitment to our students and her colleagues is exemplary. She has done a great job of helping us advance
our strategic goals related to career readiness. I know that our colleagues in Arts and Sciences are thrilled to
have her return to them. Thank you Darby!
Best regards,
Nancy

CAREER SERVICES
Recruit Blue Employer Relations Event, Eiteljorg Museum, Indianapolis - Under the leadership of Teresa Dwyer,
the Career Center Employer Relations team hosted more than two dozen organizations at the Eiteljorg Museum
in Indianapolis in order to establish and develop stronger connections with Indiana State and to extend our
connections outside of Terre Haute. VP Nancy Rogers and Provost Mike Licari attended and gave brief
presentations, sharing our accomplishments, future directions, and inviting future partnership. Feedback was
overwhelmingly positive, resulting in greater interest in recruiting with Indiana State as well as participating
more closely with us to develop impactful programs and meaningful partnerships. Suggestions regarding future
outreach to employers should be directed to Teresa Dwyer in the Career Center.
Student Employment Update - The STATE Works program launched this fall with 120 participants. So far, the
feedback has been very positive. This program is a great opportunity for campus employers to contribute to
professional development and retention of student employees. Questions or concerns about the program

The Workplace Professional Skills Certificate program is available to student employees again this year. To earn
the certificate, students complete five required and ten elective on-line training modules AND complete a
