Innovation Awards, Jan. 22

With innovation at the center of everything we do, we invite you to 麻豆破解版 State鈥檚 fourth annual Innovation Awards on Jan. 22.

The Innovation Awards, hosted by WSU Ventures and WSU Strategic Initiatives, recognize students, faculty, staff and partners who execute programs and initiatives that greatly impact achievement of the university鈥檚 mission and vision.

The event is from 3-4 p.m. in the Rhatigan Student Center Beggs Ballroom. It鈥檚 free and open to the public.

 

鈥淎s CCHT has advocated against the continued criminalization of trafficking survivors across the country, this year our keynotes offer unmatched expertise on the topic. Speaking from diverse perspectives, it is our hope that their presentations ignite critical conversations in our state and community that continue past the conference.

鈥淢ogulescu is an experienced defense attorney and professor with the Brooklyn Law School who has worked to provide post-conviction relief to survivors of abuse, exploitation and trafficking.

Continuing Education - 5.75 Social Work CEUs; 6.90 Nursing CEUs; Certificates for self-reporting for psychologists, counselors, marriage / family therapists, law enforcement, and attorneys.

In conversations regarding human trafficking and sexual exploitation, men are often only viewed as the problem. However, to effectively fight against all types of violence, our community is in desperate need of men who will stand up for those who experience abuse and exploitation. 

This event will feature men in our community engaging in courageous conversations to explore how men can become greater champions of change to combat these injustices, and to uplift our community in the name of accountability, brotherhood and love, ending with a musical performance!

In November of 2018, we completed the last installation of the cameras and have spent the rest of the project making tweaks in the positioning of the individual cameras (each physical camera has four actual cameras / views) and their aiming. This project had many ITS, Physical Plant and Police Department folks involved who provided expertise, direction, networking configuration, power installation, blue light relocation and assistance to the core team.

University Police Chief Rodney Clark said: 鈥淯sing technology for campus safety is a growing national trend, and the WSU Police Department is grateful to work with agencies such as ITS and others as student and campus safety is the No. 1 priority for the WSU Police Department.鈥�

Warren Glore, ITS project manager thanks each member of the team, especially Donny Davis, Sheldon Johnson, Joey Hutto and David Snook. These four individuals contributed to more than 85 percent of the completed tasks.

Thanks to Captain Corey Herl and Randy Sessions from the WSU Police Department for their guidance on positioning and aiming of the cameras. The installed cameras have already been used multiple times and have made some investigations by the PD easier.

An extra special kudo goes out to David Snook and the Telecommunications team. These folks went the extra mile when it was discovered that conduit going to several blue phone systems had been crushed and we could not pass new fiber optic or Ethernet cables through them. Their innovation on using existing wiring and modems allowed those cameras to be installed without digging up and replacing the crushed conduit under parking lots and streets. This action has saved hundreds of thousands of dollars.

According to Glore, we believe the campus is a much safer place to be now that these cameras are in place. As was brought out in meetings with the team, the telecom technicians while working on the installations were questioned by 鈥渢he persons on the street鈥� who wanted to know about the cameras. They received the appreciation and thanks of multiple students and faculty / staff for working on this very important project.

It is now a standard practice that any new blue pole system installed on campus will also have cameras installed because of the insistence of ITS and especially John Rankin. We believe another nine or more poles will be installed on the Innovation Campus in the next few months and years.

Thanks to all who have had a part in this project.
