COVID19 Semester What it is like here on campus now

Spring 2020 will go down in history as the year we went to only on-line classes the Thursday of spring break due to COVID19 and only a small number of students mostly International students were left on campus At first it seemed this might just be for a few weeks but after the decision was made to continue only on-line for the whole semester students came at designated times to move their belongings out

The challenge to faculty to completely redo their courses (especially courses with hands-on learning) in 4 days and learn new ways to deliver content and to students who were now living at home sharing wi-fi with other fam-ily members and struggling with this new reality of learning was strenuous

Here is Suzanne Wiesersquos perspective from working in isolation at the deserted SAU campus which I know is similar to many other staff and faculty members here I miss the studentsmdashyou are my reason for being here Yes I miss the faculty and staff I used to interact with daily and though I am still happy because I am able to help any one of them because I am here it is not the same Mostly I miss running into students throughout my day or when they stop by or in the evenings when we get to have time together at clubs or events One day I thought about the seniors and all they are missing and I just started to cry in my office I cried for a long time that day in my office ndash the grief of all the losses of COVID19 just hit me

But every day I know you all are healthy I am happy We want you well ndash that is worth any of the losses we all have felt You all still have a br ight future and we still have (or have had) a par t of prepar ing you for that I am so proud of you and so thankful that I have had this priceless opportunity to be a part of your lives

Student Profile mdash Abby Hammer

Abby graduates May 9 2020 with a Master of Science in Exercise Physiology She is from Oswego Illinois

Tell us about some of the professional opportunities that have presented themselves while youve attended SAU How will you use those now or in the future

I was fortunate enough to have an internship during my under-grad at Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation at Genesis Health Heart Center Here I was introduced to a field I didnt know of prior to this internship At my internship I learned more about the heart than I did in anatomy class and how to assist patients getting back to their normal daily lives Once I graduated with my undergradu-ate degree I was able to apply for an exercise specialist position and was hired because of my hard work during my internship This position allowed me to afford my needs while earning my graduate degree Now I am able to share my knowledge within personal experience and research to different areas in the country I hope to move to the east coast soon and gain more experience in this field

What was a defining moment or very memorable experi-ence you had as a student in the Department of Kinesiology

My trip to Peru to study Altitude Physiology was one of the greatest experiences with the Kinesiology Department While I was very uneasy traveling to this part of the world because I didnt know the language Dr Seneli made me feel safe and comfortable during this trip while also allowing us to explore the new areas The experience I had there was breathtaking and one of the best ways to apply my knowledge I learned in the classroom to practi-cal use besides the clinic I would highly recommend everyone to take the chance to go to Peru if they have the opportunity Abby studying abroad at Machu Picchu ruins in Peru

What drew you initially to our department Has that motivation changed over the course of the four years youve been at SAU

I was an athlete for most of my life and I was constantly interested in how to improve my own performance While I didnt have a lot of support from my family to continue into this field there was this calling that this department or field had more than just sports And yes there was My family was concerned because they had never heard of what an Exer-cise Physiologist was (I dont know if they still do to this day) But I was able to continue my passion for sports but also learn knowledge that I can apply to my everyday health

What advice might you give to a prospective student considering the Dept of Kinesiology at SAU My best advice is to get involved as soon as you can Explore the field because there is more to Exercise Science than just Physical Therapy and Personal Training Find what you are passionate about and run with it You would be amazed by where it will take you Im not saying it will be easy but I will be worth you time and effort

What advice might you give to someone just starting the bulk of their required departmental course-work

If it were easy everyone would do it I spent many nights staying up late studying or finishing papers And if I can do it then you can too Its all about your mentality if you think you can and put the work in then you will and that goes for anything you do in life I always reminded myself why I chose the path that I did to remind myself what my end goals were and if that was still my goal

How did your affiliation with St Ambrose help you in your job search or graduate school search While I am currently looking for a job on the East Coast I have networked with many SAU alumni to either ask for advice or make new connections Its amazing how a small community is spread out around the world and treats you like family because you are a Bee I plan on returning the favor to future graduates as well when the time comes because thats what Bees do

Student Profile mdash Gabrielle Koelker

Gabrielle graduates sum laude May 9 2020 with a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science She is from Burlington Iowa


The first professional opportunity I had was during my first year at St Ambrose As an assignment for Exercise amp Aging we had to go out into the public and observe exercise classes At the time I did not realize this was a huge professional opportunity but looking back that was the start of developing me into who I want to be as a professional I will use what I learned in that class in my future career as a physical therapist Another opportunity I had at St Ambrose was that I was able to participate in several research projects as well as conduct research This will definitely help me in the future as I now have the experience to allow me to conduct more in-depth research through graduate school

What was a defining moment or very memorable experience you had as a student in the Department of Kinesiology

A very defining moment which was also a memorable experi-ence is when the new Wellness and Recreation Center was built This facility gave Kinesiology students a place of their own and allowed us to grow even more The exercise physiology lab that was built in the WRC was extremely advantageous and gave me the opportunity to work with equipment that I will use in my future career as well as receive top-quality education

What drew you initially to our department Has that moti-vation changed over the course of the four years youve been at SAU

Growing up in southeast Iowa I have always been well aware of St Ambrose Universitys excellent reputation Once I visited and spoke with the department it was clear that the Kinesiology professors were devoted to helping their students learn and succeed It was evident that the department and the students meant a lot to them Over the course of my four years at SAU I have been able to develop close relationships with my professors and have felt their support every day since I stepped on campus Without the guidance and structure from the Kinesiology Department I am not sure I would have been able to make it through the rigorous coursework

What advice might you give to a prospective student considering the Dept of Kinesiology at SAU I would tell a prospective student that the SAU Kinesiology Department is second to none If you are looking for a

close-knit community that deeply cares about your success then this is the place you want to go There are not many schools that allow you to get to know the professors on a level that you do at SAU I am forever grateful to the Depart-ment of Kinesiology and the impact it has had on my professional and personal growth

What advice might you give to someone just starting the bulk of their required departmental coursework I would advise any student starting the bulk of their required coursework to lean on their professors and fellow class-

mates when needed Never be afraid to ask for help and never feel like you have to carry the weight alone I would also advise them to remember why they chose this major and that what they learn in these classes will benefit them in their future careers All the hard work will be worth it

How did your affiliation with St Ambrose help you in your job search or graduate school search Being affiliated with St Ambrose helped me tremendously in my graduate school search My goal coming into col-lege was to be accepted into physical therapy school after I graduate from St Ambrose My professors pushed me to be the best student possible and helped make my goal attainable When I was applying to PT schools almost everyone knew the reputation the SAU Kinesiology Department had and that it was a department that developed students who were ready for graduate work I also had two professors write me letters of recommendation and their prestigious letters gave me an advantage in the application process With the help of St Ambrose my goal turned into reality as I start physical therapy school this May at Rosalind Franklin University

Student Profile mdash Elizabeth Henrich Schneider

Elizabeth graduates summa cum laude May 9 2020 with a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science She is from Mason City Iowa


There were a variety of professional opportunities that I was able to attend during my time at St Ambrose Howev-er the research and laboratory opportunities were what I feel will have the most lasting impact on my future as a Physical Therapist During my undergrad I was able to attend a variety of conferences in which other students and faculty presented on research topics regarding Kinesiolo-gy Biology Psychology and many other areas of exper-tise In addition I was lucky enough to be able to partici-pate in the Cadaver lab as well as conduct and present on my own research through the Chemistry department I think these opportunities have allowed me to develop a greater appreciation and passion for research and evidence based practice not only within my desired field but many fields as well This well-rounded approach and under-standing is what I hope to bring with me into my future as a Physical Therapist

What was a defining moment or very memorable experience you had as a student in the Department of Ki-nesiology

My most memorable experience as a student in the Department of Kinesiology was being taught how to uti-lize new exercise testing equipment during my Exercise Physiology course It was challenging at first howev-er it was really fun to be able to learn and experience this with all of my fellow classmates


I was initially drawn to this department because of my passion for Physical Therapy and itrsquos evident founda-tion in Kinesiology However through my time at St Ambrose this passion has continued to grow due to the guidance and instruction of all the incredible faculty within this department and their willingness to help stu-dents succeed

What advice might you give to a prospective student considering the Dept of Kinesiology at SAU

Some advice I would give to a prospective student who is considering the Department of Kinesiology at St Ambrose is to take advantage of the professors willingness to go above and beyond to help their students excel within the coursework as well as to participate in as many extracurricular activities as possible

What advice might you give to someone just starting the bulk of their required departmental coursework

Some advice I would give to a student who is just beginning their required departmental coursework is to understand that every class is going to challenge you in a different way but use that as an opportunity to grow and become more well-rounded instead of viewing it as an obstacle

How did your affiliation with St Ambrose help you in your job search or graduate school search

By attending St Ambrose to obtain my undergraduate degree I was able to reaffirm my decision to continue my education here through the Doctorate of Physical Therapy Program and I am really grateful for the oppor-tunity to continue to further my education at an institution I have grown to love all these years

Student Profile mdash Anthony Peters

Anthony graduates May 9 2020 with a Master of Science in Exercise Physiology He is from Bartlett Illinois


St Ambrose has provided me with many professional ex-periences throughout the years From personal training ad-junct instruction graduate assistantships group fitness ACSM conference presentations and internships SAU has presented many means to fill my reacutesumeacute

What was a defining moment or very memorable experi ence you had as a student in the Department of Kinesiol ogy

An experience I will always remember was the feeling of accomplishment when I completed testing on my first thesis subject This was the defining moment that has led me to pursue a career in exercise research either at a university or fitness-based company


Nearly six years ago I joined the Exercise Science pro-gram with the intent to become a physical therapist Throughout my years at St Ambrose I learned that physical therapy wasnt for me thanks to our research-based pro-gram


Something I would advise new students to do is keep an open mind All throughout high school (and most of fresh-men year) I was adamant that I would become a PT Anthony is an award-winning racewalker However thanks to the amazing faculty and staff at SAU I learned where my real passion lies


What I would recommend to those starting the bulk of their coursework is to not be afraid to ask for help St Ambrose has a fantastic web of support from professors to staff to tutors to classmates etc Students should realize that this is the first time theyve been through this type of work it is okay to mess up as long as you are willing to fix it There will always be someone who can help you at SAU


With my eyes set on a career in research my affiliation with St Ambrose has helped me narrow down my job search In fact Ive recently applied to a Kinesiology lecturer position at SAU along with similar positions at different universities

Student Profile mdash Rachel Jennings

Rachel graduates cum laude May 9 2020 with a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science She is from Daven-port Iowa

Tell us about some of the professional opportunities that have presented themselves while youve attend-ed SAU How will you use those now or in the future

During my time at SAU I attended many career fairs I think all students should take advantage of the career fairs even if you are not looking for a job specifically it allows you to practice speaking with employers and exploring different career options These have been extremely helpful for when I am looking for sites to complete my clin-ical rotations for Physical Therapy school


One of the most memorable moments I had as a student in the De-partment of Kinesiology was watching my fellow students complete their VO2 Max Testing It was really fun to cheer them on and to learn how to use all of the different equipment this program has to offer


Initially I chose St Ambrose because I had been accepted into the Track 1 for the Physical Therapy Program and Saint Ambrose also al-lowed me to continue playing soccer throughout my 4 years Over the past 4 years the Department of Kinesiology has kept me motivated to be the best Physical Therapist I could be The foundation of my educa-tion for my career began in the Department of Kinesiology


I would tell all incoming students considering the Department of Kinesiology to take time to meet the facul-ty and walk through the Wellness and Recreation Center to see all of the equipment and resources it has to of-fer The faculty students and equipment really made St Ambrose stand out from other Kinesiology programs I looked at


Do not be afraid to reach out to your professors and other faculty members for help It may seem over-whelming at first but all of the coursework will build on each other Take the time at the beginning to under-stand it and that will make the rest of the course work much easier


My undergrad years at Saint Ambrose allowed me to see firsthand the facilities academic support and the approachable faculty this campus has to offer It showed me a glimpse of what my experience in the Physical Therapy Program would be and that reinforced my decision to attend Saint Ambrose for graduate school

Student Profile mdash Tiffani Fisher

Tiffani graduates cum laude May 9 2020 with a double majormdashBachelor of Science in Exercise Physiology and Bachelor of Science in Psychology She is from Oswego Illinois


I luckily didnt have to go far to find the graduate program of my dreams I will be starting St Ambroses OTD program in the fall The administration staff for the Occupational Ther-apy Department is extremely helpful and kind They helped me find some great local facilities where I could finish up my observation hours


I cant say I remember one moment that really stood out to me However looking back on my years at Ambrose I am so grateful for my major because I love my kinesiology faculty and staff They truly cared about our success and took pride in passing down their wisdom

What drew you initially to our department Has that mo-tivation changed over the course of the four years youve been at SAU

I initially wanted to be a physical therapist therefore at freshmen orientation the advisor put me in exercise science classes I realized that physical therapy wasnt for me But my kinesiology knowledge will be just as useful in my occupa-tional therapy career Tiffani studying abroad in Paris


As hard as a class was never throw away old notes or study guides You will want to look back at those in your future classes


Go to office hours it shows you care and it will help you and your professors to get to know each other more


I am continuing my education at St Ambrose I am going to be at the Health Sciences Building next year studying to become an occupational therapist
