BEACH DRIVINGOPINION, PAGE 3

Welcome to the start of another academic year at Daytona State College. Th is one, especially, promises to be full of the hope, potential and anxiety that accompany any move in a fresh new direction. More than a century ago Charles Darwin, the English naturalist, observed that, “It is not the strongest of the species that survive, not the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change.” In these diffi cult economic times, when many of our current students were laid off or found job skills lacking, they bravely responded by returning to college. Th is term, we will welcome hundreds more re-entry women and men, fi rst-time and continuing students, and military personnel seeking a transition into civilian life. We will welcome students from across the globe, from virtually every continent in the world. And you, I hope, will welcome me, the new and eighth Daytona State College President. As the economy continues to falter, here and abroad, many challenges face educational institutions, particularly in regards to state and federal funding. We must make the case that we add value; that our graduates add value to the work force. Since arriving in Volusia County earlier this month, I have met with administrators, staff , faculty and student government representatives, along with local and state politicians, fellow presidents of area colleges and universities, institutional supporters, representatives of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, the media and other constituents. Students are not the only ones on a learning curve! In fact, education is a lifelong pursuit, one that we hope you will continue to embark on aft er graduation here. As the academic year begins, I’m especially looking forward to working with the faculty, staff and students of Daytona State College, developing new educational partnerships and getting acquainted with all of our colleagues and friends who support the mission of the College. Th e past fi ve years at Daytona State have

been unprecedented, not only in terms of double-digit growth in enrollment and leadership changes, but also in the way it adapts and adjusts to how technology is transforming the educational landscape. E-textbooks, online learning initiatives and the constantly changing technological environment require we all learn new ways of approaching information and communicating eff ectively. Toward that end, we will not forget the

basic tenets of our mission: “General education at Daytona State College constitutes the academic preparation for participation in a pluralistic society and global community and is the basis for lifelong learning. It is a framework for the acquisition and use of broad bodies of knowledge and a foundation of intellectual, social and ethical skills and behaviors. Th rough the general education curriculum, students will:

New year, new prez, new era Acquire basic understandings of the humanities and cultural arts; mathematics; the social, behavioral and natural sciences; and knowledge of their interrelatedness; Develop computer literacy and the ability to access, evaluate and manipulate data electronically; Develop eff ective written and oral communication skills; Develop mathematical understanding and computational skills; Develop evaluative and problem-solving skills to make informed judgments in a variety of contexts. ” For more than 50 years, Daytona State has been the institution of choice for thousands of Central Florida residents seeking to advance themselves through higher education. In addition to the Associate of Arts/University Transfer degree, Daytona State off ers more than 100 associate of science degrees and certifi cates, as well as the Bachelor of Applied Science degree in Supervision and Management, fi ve Bachelor of Science in Education degrees, and a Bachelor of Science in Engineering Technology degree with three concentrations. Daytona State features small class sizes, personal attention from expert faculty, six campus locations and convenient, fl exible class schedules that can fi t your busy lifestyle. Living in the Digital Age — an era of unprecedented change not seen since the invention of the printing press in the 1450s — does not mean losing sight of the importance of personal contact. Th at is a hallmark of what Daytona State represents. So, on behalf of myself and the College, we invite you to a community reception from 5 to 6:30 p.m. Friday, Sept. 2, at the News-Journal Center, 221 N. Beach St. in downtown Daytona Beach. I look forward to meeting the great residents of the College and outlying communities and trust the feeling is mutual.

Sincerely, Dr. Carol Eaton, PhD

Dr. Carol Eaton PhD, 8th President of Daytona State College and also the fi rst female, offi cally started her term in August.

Do you think students should be drug tested upon qualifying for financial aid?

David James, 32Nursing

“I think being drug tested should be done because there are tons of students here who really need and work hard for financial aid

and can’t get it.”

“Definitely. A lot of these young kids think they’re getting a free

handout.”

“Yes, because if you’re getting money from the government, you should be following government laws.”

“I’m half and half. I feel like it’s almost an

invasion of privacy, but drugs are illegal... so.”

Opinion 3In Motion/August-September 2011

With so many dire headlines about education in Florida it is difficult to pinpoint which topics are the most essential. So many of our teachers are being laid off, schools are being completely shut down and programs are being discontinued, such as Pre-K and other early learning programs we know are proven to work. According to a recent article in the Orlando Sentinel, “Lawmakers slashed education spending by nearly 8 percent for the coming school year, the deepest in decades. Per-student funding will drop $542 while the state's contribution to schools will be the smallest since 2003.” Our state’s educational system is in jeopardy. In response to this crisis many schools have begun to cut “non essential” or “non-core” programs such as athletics, music and art. It is understandable that this would be a solution on how to shave expenses in the short term, but what will the long term results prove? While I believe that all of these are essential programs ,I want to focus on art programs. According to the Molly Brown Foundation, a nonprofit organization based in Hillsborough County in the Tampa Bay area, they have found that elementary schools in their county receive just $4 per student for art and music supplies for the entire year and as they point out on their website, “Even with school discounts, purchasing just one Crayola crayon color pack of 16 costs almost the entire budget per child.”

It’s been a while since I have done back to school shopping, so I looked up the cost of a box of Crayola crayons – and they sell for around $3.52 a box. Obviously there are cheaper crayons, but their point is a valid one. To save art programs in their community, grants are being offered to music and arts teachers in their county I never did exceptionally well in elementary school. I was shy and my family moved around a lot, so I was constantly changing schools. It wasn’t until a 4th grade art teacher asked me to participate in a project for the county fair that I began to enjoy a subject in school, not to mention that for the week I was assisting I got out of other classes, like boring math! I remember for the first time in my short scholastic career feeling like I finally had found something I excelled at. I had a value, not only for myself, but for my school and community too. What a great boost to my self esteem! Dennis Creedon, director of comprehensive arts education for the School District of Philadelphia wrote a recent article about the effects of stress on children in urban communities. Stress for children can contribute to multiple childhood illnesses such as asthma and depression. He cited a major study conducted in Chicago that revealed up to 50 percent of the students suffered from various levels of stress. The point being that this is something that can and should be controlled. Many view the arts as a type of childhood preventative medicine. Jack Shonkoff , a professor at the Center on the Developing Child at Harvard University, and Deborah Phillips a professor from Georgetown University, wrote an article for the National

Academies Press 10 years ago titled, “From Neurons to Neighborhoods: The Science of Early Childhood Development.” In one portion of that article, they write: “Stress directly affects attention, memory, planning, and behavior control. When the mind is under emotional stress, it produces the peptide cortisol. Cortisol is an invaluable hormone that serves to insulate the mind from negative memories. It enables the mind to buffer itself against a traumatic experience. Cortisol generally is a blessing because we don’t become controlled by our past negative experiences. However, if cortisol is not kept in balance, learning can and will stop. “The arts and music education can help because they promote the production of endorphin, and this peptide counteracts cortisol’s undesirable tendency to reduce students’ ability to concentrate. Endorphin enables students to manage personal stress and enhances their learning potentials. In this way, music and the arts can directly enhance recall and memory.” Wow, brain chemicals! Consider another fact that Creedon also included in his article, where he states “Incarcerated youths who receive arts education programs are unlikely to commit repeat offenses once released from prisons.” Must be the endorphins at work! With that understanding of the scientific facts on why art works, let’s take an example set by a second-grade teacher in Texas, Ann Alejandro. She put these ideas into practice within her classroom. She had students take index cards and on one side had them write a word, she then asked each

child to draw or paint their version of what that word would look like. From that point the student would write a short story using their vocabulary art cards. In one year her students took the states standardized test and writing skills improved from 38 percent the previous year to 88 percent. Reading went from 28to 80 percent. Art is therapeutic, and it’s scientifically and medically proven to reduce stress in children (and adults) and reduce childhood disease. It reduces juvenile delinquenc, improves graduation rates… I could go on and on. What happens generations from now when art has been eliminated from our society? What would we miss out on? Pretty pictures? Through art we have recorded language and we leave a record of a civilization for others to follow. At the bare minimum we have provided something beautiful to see. I lived in Chicago a few years ago and while I was there I ended up working for the The Art Institue of Chicago. It was a great part-time job, but the best part was the benefit of having a free pass to all of the museums in Chicago. I put that employee card to work!!! To physically see parts of our human existence on this planet expressed through art is an amazing benefit to humanity. The building I worked in was beautiful example of architecture itself — and above the exit door was inscribed in marble “art endures.” I believe that beyond language, humanity and civilizations it does, above all.

Keeping the art and music programs alive

Two children lost their lives at Daytona Beach last year, but most county officials aren’t ready to end the beach driving tradition. They are making a mistake. According to Volusia County records, there have been over 50 accidents involving vehicles and beachgoers since 1998. Four-year-olds Ellie Brand and Aiden Patrick were both killed in vehicle related accidents, yet the only change to beach traffic has been the addition of “children playing” signs. As shocking as it might be, beach toll revenue is likely the reason for such a lackadaisical response. For the 2009-2010 fiscal year, Volusia County passed a $9.2 million budget for beach safety and daily operations. Including concession fees and beach tolls, the county raised enough to pay for nearly half of the budget. With such a large percent of the budget being paid for by beach driving, how could the council possibly consider ending the practice? County Council member Patricia Northey has been the lone voice on the council calling for an end to all beach driving. She has fought for years to secure funds for more off-shore parking and believes beach toll revenue could be part of the reason her colleagues disagree. “Beaches are an environmental gem,” Northey said, “and should be protected.”Council member Carl Persis understands the severity of the situation, but he believes changes can be made to keep the long-

Beach driving tradition not worth the risk

standing tradition in place. He is proposing a one-way traffic pattern in some parts of the beach and more family friendly, no vehicle zones. “Nobody wants this to happen again, but Daytona Beach is still the world’s most famous beach,” Persis said, “and I believe it is the safest.” If the council truly believes Daytona is a

safe beach, it can’t continue to allow cars to drive feet away from oblivious sunbathers. The parents of Aiden Patrick deserve better than posting a few signs next to speed-limit notifications. Aiden’s mother told the New York Times, “You don’t mix cars and people. It’s pretty simple.” The council shouldn’t feel any different. The drivers of the vehicles that

killed the children weren’t even cited for violations because they were following the law on a beach we treat like a road. This issue will disappear from our minds until another innocent child loses their life. That doesn’t have to happen. Seven members of the Volusia County Council can either cling to a dangerous tradition or save lives. What are they waiting for?

It is diffi cult to believe a majority of college students owe more than $20,000 in student-loan debt. While college students of the past generation worried about the Vietnam War and if they were ever going to get to “rock and roll all night and party every day,” today’s college students are starting out on life with a mountain of debt they may never conquer. From coast to coast, college students are forced to deal with the realities of attending college in a depressed economy. Last year, tuition was raised 6.4 percent and starting this new academic year, it was boosted another 8 percent at DSC to make up for lost state revenues. Students are cautious about every purchase they make, which makes life more diffi cult. In a random poll of individuals in their 20s, USA Today and The National Endowment for Financial Education found, “Sixty percent feel they are facing tougher fi nancial pressures than young people did in previous generations.”

10 tips from the Project on Student Debt

1. Know Your Loans: It's important to keep track of the lender, balance, and repayment status for each of your student loans. If you're not sure, ask your lender or visit www.nslds.ed.gov.. 2. Know Your Grace Period: A grace period is how long you can wait aft er leaving school before you have to make your fi rst payment. It's six months for federal Staff ord loans, but nine months for federal Perkins loans. For federal PLUS loans, it depends on when they were issued. 3. Stay in Touch with Your Lender:Whenever you move or change your phone number or e-mail address, tell your lender right away. If your lender needs to contact you and your information isn't current, it can end up costing you a bundle. 4. Pick the Right Repayment Option: When your federal loans are due, your loan payments will automatically be based on a standard 10-year repayment plan. If the standard payment is going to be hard for you to cover, you can change plans down the line if you want or need to. Extending your repayment period beyond 10 years can lower your monthly payments, but you'll end up paying more interest. To fi nd out more about Income-Based Repayment visit www.IBRinfo.org. Private loans are not eligible for IBR or the other federal loan payment plans, deferments, forbearances, or forgiveness programs. 5. Don't Panic: If you're having trouble making payments remember that you have options for managing your federal student loans. Th ere are legitimate ways to temporarily postpone your federal loan payments, such as deferments or forbearance. 6. Stay out of Trouble! Ignoring your student loans has serious consequences. For federal loans, default kicks in aft er nine months of non-payment. When you default, your total loan balance becomes due, your credit score is ruined, the total amount you owe increases dramatically, and the government can garnish your wages and seize your tax refunds if you default on a federal loan. For private loans, default can happen much more quickly and can put anyone who co-signed for your loan at risk as well. 7. Lower Your Principal if You Can: If you can aff ord to pay more than your required monthly payment, you can lower your principal, which reduces the amount of interest you have to pay over the life of the loan. Include a written request to your lender to make sure that the extra amount is applied to your principal! Otherwise it will automatically be applied to future payments instead. 8. Pay Off the Most Expensive Loans First: If you have private loans in addition to federal loans, start with your private loans. 9. To Consolidate or Not to Consolidate:You can consolidate through the Direct Loan program to get one fi xed interest rate. For private consolidation loans, shop around carefully for a fi xed interest rate if you can fi nd one, and read all the fi ne print. Never consolidate federal loans into a private student loan, or you'll lose all the benefi ts.10. Loan Forgiveness: Public Service Loan Forgiveness is a new federal program and you can fi nd out more about other qualifying jobs at www.IBR.info.org. Th ere are other federal loan forgiveness options available for teachers, nurses, AmeriCorps and PeaceCorps volunteers and other professions as well.

Pinching pennies for college students “Loans are so confusing I have no idea how or what to do, but I know I have to do it,” says Costa Bourantanis, 19, of Daytona Beach. “I save my money pretty well, but it is only adds to my stress.” Christina Paspalakis, 20, also of Daytona Beach, explains it is diffi cult for people her age to save money because all they want to do is shop and make the fun purchases, like any young person would. “Don’t get me wrong, fi nancial aid takes care of a big part of books and tuition, but I work every day until 5 p.m.. I have little time for homework and errands, so when I get my pay check I want to reward myself, usually with food and a pair of shoes.” The government is lending a helping hand to help out college students of America. But in the long run is this truly helping? Recently politicians have passed legislation in some states, including Florida, that require welfare recipients to submit to drug tests. Now, they are saying students who apply for student loans should be tested as well (See the In Mind question on page 2).Both students interviewed have or are planning to take out student loans as

thousands of college students do. Sounds great, right? Get money now and pay whenever you want, wrong. Pell Grants are sought after simply because they never need to be paid back and are determined by the family’s fi nancial input. The two major loans usually awarded, however, are subsidized and Stafford loans. The better of the two are subsidized loans because students are not charged interest while in school. With regular Stafford loans, interest accumulates while students are in school, but both must be paid back once you graduate. Students apply for the loan through the school’s fi nancial aid offi ce and then the money comes from the government and is paid directly to the student’s school. Paspalakis said that being a full-time student, loans help her with bills and taking care of other family members. “It’s going to be awful paying them back and I hope I am not in too much debt coming out of school.” Bourantanis added that, “Just thinking of the lines and confusion of fi nancial aid gives me a headache.”

More than 500 residents earned Bachelor of Applied Science in Supervision and Management or BAS degrees from Daytona State College — a milestone accomplished in fi ve years. “I am so proud of our graduates. They are making a big difference in the community,” said Dr. Eileen Hamby, vice president of the College of Business Administration, who developed the program in 2006, starting with 12 students. Today almost 800 students are enrolled in the BAS program, with 90 percent of them working full time. Many students enter the BAS program as managers looking for future promotions in the public and private sectors. Others see the degree as the springboard to graduate degrees. About 30 percent of the college’s BAS program graduates have gone on to master’s-level programs at Stetson University, University of Central Florida and Bethune-Cookman University, to

name a few. Dr. Hamby hopes the program continues to grow. “The Bachelor of Applied Science in Supervision and Management program provides opportunities for graduates to advance their careers. Our students learn applied skills that increase their value in the work place.” Courses are offered 100 percent online or 50/50, meaning students may take on-site classes once a week, usually at night, and perform the rest of the work online. Some courses are also offered on weekends.Robert Saum, the Dean of the College of Online Studies, reports when online education was introduced at the College in 2002, the unduplicated headcount of students taking classes electronically was 1,372 over 125 sections. As of fi scal year 2010, that number rose to 10,114 students and over 793 sections. For information, visit www.DaytonaState.edu/sbs/, or call 386- 506-4227.

Community College Week, one of the nation’s leading publications focusing on two-year higher education institutions, named Daytona State College among its list of Top 100 Associate Degree Producers. The College ranks 37th nationally in awarding two-year associate degrees. In addition, the college ranked 10th in the awarding of associate of science degrees in communication technologies, 21st in liberal arts and science degree awards, 47th in associate degree in nursing graduates and 72nd in the awarding of one-year college and vocational credit certifi cates. “These rankings are further evidence of the quality of our faculty and support staff, who serve our students with dedication, commitment and a focus on excellence,” said retired Daytona State Interim President Frank Lombardo. “While access to higher education and workforce training is a critical component of our mission, the ultimate measure of our institutional

Daytona State College will offer a new associate of science degree in Environmental Science Technology beginning this semester. The 64-credit hour, two-year program was recently approved by the College’s accrediting body, the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. It is among only fi ve such programs being offered at colleges statewide, according to DSC Institute of Marine and Environmental Studies adviser and professor, Dr. Debra Woodall. Environmental science technicians perform laboratory and fi eld tests to monitor natural resources, as well as to measure contaminants and sources of pollution. A large part of their work is collecting samples for testing, managing hazardous materials inventories, or performing general activities related to

regulatory compliance. The new program is designed to prepare students for entry-level employment upon graduation. Required courses include Environmental Policy and Law; Introduction to Ecology; Geographic Information Systems; Energy and Its Environmental Effects; Aquatic Environmental Science; and a required internship that will give students working experience in the fi eld. According to the U.S. Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics, jobs for environmental science technicians are expected to grow by an average 12 percent annually through 2018, with the average wage nationwide being nearly $20 an hour.

effectiveness rests in student success and outcomes, and these rankings are a validation that we are on the right track.” Rankings are based on an analysis of data collected by the National Center for Education Statistics for the 2009-2010 academic year. The analysis included data from more than 5,000 public and private community colleges, state colleges and universities nationwide that award the two-year associate degree and one-year certifi cates. This is the second time in 2011 that DSC has been recognized as a leader in two-year higher education. In April, the Aspen Institute, a Washington D.C.-based think tank, named Daytona State among the top 10 percent of America’s 1,200 two-year colleges. The selection recognizes the effectiveness of the two-year academic focus that is the heart of Daytona State’s multi-faceted mission, as well as its track record in generating positive workforce outcomes.


With every new turtle season

comes a motivated group of volunteers called the Turtle Patrol. They come out to the beach

bright and early every morning to search for sea turtle tracks. Starting in May female sea turtles make their way to local

beaches to lay their eggs. In Volusia County the nest count is almost up to 300 so far this season. The importance of having volunteers is to make

sure all the turtle tracks with and without nests get spotted, reported and marked. When these volunteers find a turtle nest they use stacks and colored

ribbon so no one walks or drives over it. These will help with the outcome of the nest when it hatches. It is rumored that 1 out of 10,000 hatchlings make it to adult hood. For most people, it’s a beautiful spectacle to see a female turtle crawl up to the dunes and bury her eggs. Many people may surround her and take pictures, shine the flashlight on her and observe this nature created moment. What most people do not realize is that these are endangered and flash lights, cameras and observing too close will send her back into the water without laying her eggs.

This is one of the problems these females face when their nesting season starts.

For the love of...

DSC’s Patrick Gingras(above) finishes the last wave during his heat at the NSSA’s national championship at Salt Creek.

DSC’s Eric Wilson of Flagler gets in a practice session before the competition began at Salt Creek, just north of Dana Point, Calif.

The National Junior College Athletic Association named recently graduated DSC phenomenon Mitsuki Katahira as the recipient of the 2011 NJCAA Betty Jo Graber Female Student-Athlete of the Year Award. The prestigious honor is bestowed annually to the top female student-athlete in the NJCAA who best exhibits hard work, discipline, ethics and excellence in competition.

“Mitsuki is an outstanding athlete, student and person,” said Daytona State Women’s Golf Head Coach Laura Brown. “She has an incredible work ethic and is a great role model for other student-athletes. We are very proud of her and look forward to following her during the next phase of her golfing career.”

In her second season with Daytona State, the Kanagawa, Japan, native won the national championship tournament and did not finish lower than second place in any tournament play. All totaled, Katahira won nine of 11 tournaments in 2011 and was listed as the top female amateur player when initial rankings were released by theWorld Amateur Golf Ranking system. She is currently ranked third.

During her play at Daytona State, the two-time NJCAA First-Team All-American led the Lady Falcons to two straight NJCAA Women’s Golf team championships, while also claiming two individual medalist titles in the process. She is the NJCAA record holder for the lowest individual three-round total (211 in 2010) and lowest individual round score (64 in 2010) in NJCAA Women’s Golf Championship play. Katahira also led the Lady Falcons to two NJCAA team records: lowest round score (280 in 2010) and lowest three-round team total (869 in 2010).

Katahira is the second golfer — and second Falcon — to receive the Betty Jo Graber Award since it was established in 1993. Softball standout Nicole Weed was presented the award in 1997. The award is named for longtime Weatherford College, Texas, basketball coach Betty Jo Graber, who also served as the Region 5 Women’s Director, the NJCAA Women’s Basketball Committee Chair and a founding member of the NJCAA Women’s Division. Graber also was among the first to be inducted into the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame.

DSC grad gets special honor

Former University of Arizona swimming and diving champion Caitlin Iversen is the new assistant swimming and diving coach at Daytona State College and coordinator of the Falcon’s developmental swimming squad. “Caitlin’s enthusiasm and success as a student-athlete will be a tremendous asset to Daytona State, our swimmers and our local community,” said Daytona State’s head Swimming and Diving Coach Don Gibb. “Having been trained by some of the most admired and respected coaches in our sport at the University of Arizona, she will make an immediate impact on our team by implementing the most innovative and proven training methods available.” Iverson has been a winner on many levels in the sport. Originally from Centennial, Colo., where she was an All American and state champion at Cherry Creek High School four years in a row, she also had a storied collegiate career as a member of the University of Arizona’s Women’s Swimming & Diving squad. During her tenure there, she helped the Wildcats capture both Pac-10 and NCAA team titles. She ranked in the top 10 all-time for Arizona in the 200-meter backstroke and 200-meter and 400-meter individual medleys. Iversen also participated in the 2008 U.S. Olympic Trials, finishing ninth in the 200-meter backstroke.

After a decade, the United States will confront the 10 year anniversary of the worst terrorist attacks in the nation’s history. The chaos that has reigned upon the country since 9/11 is brought to light when photographers pass on their accounts of what’s transpired since that fateful day in 2001. The Southeast Museum of Photography is offering these breathtaking exhibits that will run until October 2. The collection, “In Review: War”, features photographs by Ed

It will be a September to remember at Daytona State College as poodle skirts, doo-wop music, ponytails and patchouli oil make a comeback during the Women Center’s Fourth Annual Resource Fair, titled “It’s Never Too Late to Educate: Decades of Resources.” The theme for the Wednesday, Sept. 21 event is the 1950s to now, highlighting decades from the 1950s to the present. All participating departments are invited to decorate their areas with a decade using fashion, music or a technology genre. An example would be 1950s fashion, 1950s music or 1950s technology. Creativity counts because students that attend the event will vote on the best theme. The department with the largest number of votes also wins a special prize. The fair this year will be from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. in Bergengren Hall, Building 100, Room 112.Behind all the celebrating is a serious cause, says Gina M. Stafford, Program Manager. “As you are aware providing resources to our students is imperative to their success. However, in order for this process to be successful, students must first be aware of the myriad of programs and services that are available and accessible. Departments that have been identified as ‘untapped resources’ will have the opportunity to showcase their areas of expertise and encourage students to dig a little deeper into those areas that may not be highly visible but have proven to be very resourceful to them as they matriculate towards their academic degrees.” Departments identified as untapped resources have been invited to participate, but any campus entity that feels it has something to offer is welcome to contact the Women Center at 506- 3982 by Sept. 6. Space is limited so participants are encouraged to

respond quickly to ensure the decade and genre requested is guaranteed. Representative from departments must be available throughout the entire event. Keeping in line with the teaching and learning philosophy adopted by the College, students in attendance will have an opportunity to win prizes for participating in an activity, which is designed to encourage them to visit each department represented. In addition, there is an ongoing fundraising event being

sponsored by a local merchant on behalf of the Women’s Center. Dine-in or take-out at the Daytona Beach Uno Chicago Grill through Oct. 31 and 20 percent of the check will be donated to the Women’s Center’s Fresh Start program to benefit students who are working to complete degree programs and returning to work. A link to download “Doughraiser Vouchers” can be provided by the Women’s Center. For information about the Fresh Start program visit www.DaytonaState.edu

Exhibit marks tenth anniversary of 9/11The SMP offers exhibits highlighting the last decade since the tragedy of 9/11. Photographs take the viewers on a journey from ground zero.

Photos by Ed Grazda/ Special to In Motion

Grazda, Louie Palu, Lucian Perkins and Christopher Sims, highlight different accounts of what has ensued, snapped through individual lens and revealing to the onlooker the truth behind the madness. These pictures take the viewer from the site of what has become known as “ground zero” to the skirmishes that have followed in the Middle East. Using the techniques of portraiture, which attempts tocapture the exact likeness of a person’s facial features, documentary and reportage photography; or photojournalism, each series arranges realistic and fetching aspects of the crisis. The photographers have each created an individual archive of this tremendous worldwide struggle. The photos pinpoint

events that allow the viewer to develop a better understanding of what has transpired into an international effort. Another thought-provoking exhibit on display at the SMP is the, “Second Telling: Here is New York”, presenting the work of diverse photographers including Ellen K. Jaffe, Eric Aederlander and Mark Selliger. The showing began in Soho a few weeks after the attacks on the World Trade Center. These pictures, sent in in response to the WTC tragedy, are taken from the Permanent Collection of the SMP. The photographs are a powerful statement made by many who witnessed the events of 9/11 firsthand. An artist’s talk and reception is scheduled for Sept. 23 at 6 p.m. at the SMP and is free to all.
