The FSU All College Committee hosted a faculty and staff forum to dis-cuss the possibility of a tobacco-free campus on Nov. 21.

The meeting was run by Vice Presi-dent for Academic Affairs Linda Vaden-Goad, Professor Francis Kemegue, and SATF Treasurer Paul Manning.

Vaden-Goad opened the forum by presenting an early draft of the policy.

The policy would prohibit students,

faculty, staff, contractors and visitors from using, distributing or advertising any type of tobacco product on campus property, including the parking lots. The policy would also disallow the improp-er disposal of tobacco product such as throwing cigarette butts on the ground and spitting smokeless tobacco.

The policy’s tentative effective date is Sept. 1, 2013.

“In a sense, what we expect from the community is to shape the draft to the needs of our community and satisfy-

ing the different groups that we have,” Kemegue said. “We have to insist that we respect the will … of everyone on campus.”

Vaden-Goad then opened up the fo-rum to comments and questions.

Associate Vice President for Aca-demic Affairs and Dean of Continuing Education Scott Greenberg asked how the policy would be enforced and moni-tored.

An expansion of the FSU residence caf-eteria will be undertaken this summer and construction is expected to be completed by the start of the fall semester.

The outside work will begin prior to the end of this school year, said Executive Vice President Dale Hamel. “Basically, as soon as the ground is warm enough … probably as early as April 1.”

Ralph Eddy, director of dining services for Sodexo, said, “The primary element of this FSU-funded project is to provide ad-ditional seating for the Dining Commons and the construction of a new kitchen space to accommodate the past and future growth of the university.”

Hamel said, “It will be completed, or at least completed where it really isn’t disrup-tive to the inside operations by the begin-ning of the fall semester.”

The expansion will be added onto the back of the McCarthy Center.

Hamel explained, “If you’re in the din-ing commons and see the seats along the windows, it [the cafeteria] will go out from there. It will be a story-and-a-half structure basically on the green space between the current dining area and the parking lot.”

The expansion of the cafeteria will have no effect on the rest of the McCarthy Cen-

A visible tension between a Bandana-ZHDULQJURFNVWDUDQGDÀHUFHJUHHQwitch arises during a life and death-based musical. The two are spotted throwing punches at each other, the witch pulling the rock star’s hair in front RIKLVIDFHDQGWKHURFNVWDUÁLSSLQJWKHwitch’s hat off.

“We were encouraged to get physi-cal,” said sophomore Tyler DeMoura, a Hilltop player.

The Hilltop Players presented “The Hilltop Games,” which played from Nov. 15-17 in the Ecumenical Center. The show was directed by John Gaz-ard, a senior. Lenell Wyman, the music director, helped determine the theme of

the show, based on popular musicals, such as “Rent,” “Wicked,” “Spring Awakening,” “Hairspray,” “Rock of Ages,” and “Annie.” Patrick Powers, a sophomore and the producer, also helped come up with the idea.

Powers, Gazard, and Wyman may have been the brains behind the theme of the play, but the 23 cast members were the ones to make the play come alive. FSU students played the charac-ters inspired by those from many known musicals, from Mimi in “Rent” to Janet from “Rocky Horror Picture Show.”

The Hostess, played by junior Deir-GUH3RZHUVLQDÀWWHGEOXHGUHVVDQGDstrict top bun opened up the show with a strong sense of bittersweet satire, as she introduced each of the tributes by pull-ing out slips of paper from a glass bowl.

She shared with the audience the horrid truth that it was “reaping day,” and only one of the tributes would survive.

Little did the audience know that Powers was improvising the entire show all three nights. The cast members did not know what to expect from her witty comments and were laughing behind the scenes. Powers’ sarcasm and dark humor clearly expressed the theme of the Hunger Games accompanied by hysterical laughter from the audience.´+RQH\LI,ZDQWHGWRZDWFKÁRR-

Please provide a brief summary of your resume and educational background.

I went to the Rhode Island School of Design. I was an illustration major, and I always worked in oil paint even as an illustrator. Then, I went back later to the University of Massachusetts in Dart-mouth for a painting degree. That was my M.F.A.

What were you doing before you came to FSU?

Oh my gosh, what haven’t I done? I got out of RISD, and I went to New York right away and decided to be a freelance illustra-tor. I would sit in Grand Central Sta-tion, at a magazine kiosk, and look up every art direc-tor’s name. Then, I would get on the phone and call them ‘cause it was before the Internet. I would interview around the city, meet art directors and do drop offs, always looking for work. I left New York after about a year or so and moved back to the Boston area. I started teaching by picking up some substitute teaching in the public schools, and quickly realized I wasn’t cut out for that. I worked my way up age groups until I realized I was best suited for college-age students. I taught classes at MassArt for about ten years. And I was still freelance illustrating. But I always wanted to be a painter, so I went back to grad school to earn my graduate degree in painting. The larger the scale of my painting, the happier [I became]. Then, I stopped teaching for several years, and ended up painting, illustrating, and doing some graphic design work. Slowly, over time, I ended up only paint-ing

What classes do you currently teach?

Well, I’ve taught drawing. I taught a digi-tal course. And painting, obviously. But I can teach a whole bunch of peripheral things like that, too, because I’ve illus-trated children’s books [and] worked in both ends of publishing - from being the illustrator to hiring illustrators. I’ve ZRUNHGIRUELJÀQDQFLDOFRUSRUDWLRQVDVa graphic designer. I have a whole bunch of tools in my bag just [from] years of being out there. You have a show coming up, a few shows, correct?

I do. I have two solo shows this year. I just had a solo show out in Park City, Utah - WKH-XOLH1HVWHU*DOOHU\7KLVLVWKHÀUVW

WLPH,·YHUHYLVLWHG WKHPDOHÀJXUHVLQFHI was in graduate school - and that was in the late ‘90s. I have another show at The Art Complex Museum in Duxbury. $QGLW·VDOOPDOHÀJXUDWLYHODUJHVFDOHRLOpaintings. Tell us more about your show.

Half of them are boxers. In my building, a boxing gym opened. About a year and a half ago, I was walking in after teach-ing a class at Framingham State and it was snowing in March, which was crazy,

and I was carrying all my stuff to go back to my studio to work. And this guy was standing out there in a T-shirt and shorts in a half-foot of snow. I said, “What are you doing out here in shorts and a T-shirt?” He says, “I own a gym.” I’m like, “What do you mean you own a gym? I’ve been in this building forever. There’s no gym in this building.” Turns out this guy moved in and started a boxing gym. So I thought, “I have to try it out because all I have to do is walk down the stairs.” So I started boxing and it was good to get in shape, but also I was

down there always going, “This place looks like a theater.” And that’s what I talk a lot about in my show, that it looked like you were walking onto a stage. Like this is not real - this is part of some alter-native world. The bottom line is if that gym hadn’t moved in, I probably would QRWKDYHUHYLVLWHGWKHPDOHÀJXUHEHFDXVH, VWDUWHGZDWFKLQJJX\VÀJKW7KHSODFHis very theater-like because it’s red and black and has dramatic lighting. I started hiring some of the guys to model for me and they ended up in my paintings. Since then, the show also features young men lakeside. I hope to show the psychology of the two different worlds - similar as-pects of play, but two completely differ-ent ways of coming toward it… It’s very interesting. Their gestures and move-ments mirror each other. That’s where that series came from. You can come and see it! It’s open November 18th through February 17th in Duxbury.

Do you have any advice for students?

What I’ve found that’s worked best is just go to your studio and do your art, in some form, every day. As long as I do my art on some small scale every single day, then I’m still doing my art. I don’t quit. I think that’s part of the reason I like the boxers. The boxers say there are no quitters. You can’t quit. Never throw in the towel - just stick with it. Even if you have other jobs - just keep your eye on what you [love]. I love painting. I knew it wouldn’t be nec-essarily the easiest thing to do without having another job. But, just stick with it. Just stick with it.

Undocumented immigrants in Mass. to pay in-state tuition

Under a new directive from Gov. Deval Patrick, some of Massachusetts’ undocumented immigrants will now be eligible to pay in-state tuition at public colleges and universities.

Patrick sent a letter to the state’s Board of Higher Education Monday, Nov. 19 indicating that young people approved for the federal deferred action program would qualify for the lower rates, effec-tive immediately.

Immigrants who apply for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, announced in June of this year, must be under the age of 30 and have immigrated here before the age of 16, among other re-quirements. Those given federal approval are granted working permits and are pro-tected from deportation for two years, at which point they have to re-apply.

The move brings Massachusetts’ 29 state colleges and universities in line with a policy which, since 2008, has allowed all immigrants with work permits to pay in-state rates.

In-state tuition and fees for one year at FSU come to $8,080, with out-of-state coming to $14,160 - a difference of $6,080 per year.

Per the announcement, schools will have to refund the additional cost for any undocumented immigrants approved un-der DACA who are currently paying out-of-state tuition.

Current estimates put the number of people eligible for DACA at between 15,000 and 17,000 - only a “handful” of whom have actually been approved, said Heather Johnson, spokesperson for the VWDWH·V([HFXWLYH2IÀFHRI(GXFDWLRQ

“The fraction of that 15-17,000 people that this will ultimately apply to is very small,” Johnson said. “Even three or four years down the road, we don’t expect this to be a capacity issue on campuses. It’s not like there are suddenly going to be thousands of people applying to any one campus. Spread out over the 29 pub-

lic campuses, we’re not expecting a huge impact.”

The government does not keep a re-cord of how many undocumented immi-grants currently attend public institutions of higher education, because those num-EHUVDUHGLIÀFXOWWRWUDFN-RKQVRQDGGHG

College applicants will still have to meet established requirements for in-state tuition in Massachusetts - one year of residency for public colleges and uni-versities and six months of residency for community colleges.

Although the move will not have a large impact on Framingham State right away, Sociology Department Chair Sue Dargan said it’s a step in the right direc-tion for the state as a whole.

“I think it says that we have a more welcoming attitude in Massachusetts to-ward immigrants,” Dargan said. “That’s a small number of people, but it’s a sign, in general, in Massachusetts, that we value diversity.”

Dargan is the former chair of FSU’s Diversity Committee.

Rita Colucci, FSU’s chief of staff and general counsel, said, “It will be inter-esting to see” whether FSU will see in-creased enrollment from Framingham’s immigrant community at some point in the future, adding, “If we do, we’ll fol-low the guidelines of the [Department of

Higher Education].”Vice President of Enrollment and Stu-

dent Development Susanne Conley said she couldn’t speculate on the move’s im-pact on FSU’s admissions.

“We simply do not know how many young people have been avoiding the public colleges and universities in Mas-sachusetts (with their separate in-state and out-of-state price structures) before now,” Conley said in an e-mail.

Vin Ferraro, a sociology professor who teaches a course on immigration policy, said in an e-mail that Patrick’s announcement “promises to allow the 1.5 million generation - those children who came here prior to age 16 - the op-portunity to pursue higher education, an opportunity that motivated many of their

for many been a non-starter, effectively precluding lots and lots of young people from being able to afford to go to col-lege,” Ferraro added.

Kira Gagarin, a local immigration at-WRUQH\ZLWKDQRIÀFHRQ6SHHQ6WUHHWLQFramingham, said of the governor’s an-nouncement, “This is huge.”

Because non-citizens are not eligible WRUHFHLYHIHGHUDOÀQDQFLDODLGVKHVDLGmany will still face barriers to education or might only be able to afford to take a few classes at a time - an issue that could be addressed in future federal immigra-tion reform.

“It’s not the end, because it doesn’t al-low kids who have lived here their whole lives to get the full college experience,” Gagarin said.

Justin Perry, a junior history major, said he recognized the subject is “a com-plicated issue.”

However, he said, “If they have a work SHUPLWDQGKDYHOLYHGKHUHIRUDVLJQLÀ-cant amount of time, we shouldn’t punish them, I guess.”

Jacqueline Lovell, a freshman food and nutrition major, said, “If those kids DUHWKHSHUVRQWRÀJXUHRXWWKHQH[WFXUHfor cancer, why should we deny them the opportunity to go to school?”

Jerry Etienne, a sophomore food and nutrition major, said, “I feel that if you’ve lived in the state, you should be able to pay in-state, just as other people who live in the state do.”

Cassandra Gay, a senior sociology ma-jor, said, “If they live here, they should. It doesn’t make sense that they shouldn’t.”

Michelle Valerio, a sophomore com-munication arts major, said she didn’t support the move.

“If they’re undocumented, they’re not legal. I don’t think they should have the privilege of paying in-state tuition,” Vale-rio said.

Gov. Deval Patrick’s directive extends lower rate to recipients of President Obama’s deferred action program.

FSU offers personal Internet connections for student dorms

Framingham State University stu-dents living in residence halls can now purchase a subscription-based Internet access which allows them to play video games online, as well as stream content from online video sites, with a private bandwidth.

In an e-mail to students at the begin-ning of the semester, a personnel from the FSU Student Helpdesk informed students they could opt to pay for their own “per-sonal and private connection apart from what is provided by the university.”

Mike Zinkus, director of systems and networking at FSU, said the decision behind the supplemental Internet offer-ing was for students to have the “option for recreational Internet use for items, such as gaming with Xbox, or other high EDQGZLGWKDSSOLFDWLRQV OLNH1HWÁL[DQGHulu.”

When asked if the decision to sell pri-vate Internet connections was based on, in any way, problems with the current FSU Internet network, Zinkus said, “no.”

use a reporting line, and if the violation occurs in the residence halls, there are different punishments.

Kemegue said the approach is not in-tended to “have the police outside to put people in jail because they were found smoking.” Individuals who are observed smoking will be reminded of the policy. If they are repeat offenders, human re-sources, health services and academic affairs will work together to discuss the policy with them.

Greenberg said students already rarely obey the 30 feet rule, which states that students must stay at least 30-feet away from buildings while smoking, without being reprimanded.

“In actuality, there’s no real punish-ment,” Greenberg said.

Vaden-Goad said the current draft policy states that violators will be issued two verbal warnings. The implementa-tion and compliance section of the draft policy states that if a second warning is ignored, a penalty will be issued. A cam-pus telephone number and e-mail address will be promoted to report violations.

The section also indicates that stu-dents, faculty and staff are responsible for enforcing the policy.

Vaden-Goad said the section of the draft which covers implementation and compliance needed attention, since it ODFNVDGHÀQHGSHQDOW\6KHVDLGWKHFRP-mittee wanted the community to help come up with a clear penalty.

Director of the Child Development Lab Valerie Hytholt said the day-care chil-dren have to go through the non-smoking area during pick-up and drop-off times. She said students often disregard the rule, and some students repeatedly smoke in the area after being asked to leave.

“We have to walk through second-hand smoke and cigarette butts and the litter,” she said. “Something that is be-coming increasingly unpleasant is the chewing tobacco and the spitting of the chewing tobacco.”

Hytholt said she was concerned about the enforcement of the policy.

Associate Dean of Students and Direc-tor of Residence Life and Judicial Affairs Glenn Cochran suggested that after a sec-ond verbal warning, violators of the poli-cy would have to go through the campus judicial process, which would relieve the committee of having to specify a penalty

in the policy.Cochran also suggested changing the

name of the initiative to a “smoke-free, tobacco-free” policy because hookah, not necessarily a tobacco product, is listed as a forbidden product.

Vaden-Goad made the suggestion of instituting a task force to help people quit smoking, if that was their choice, “to help

the policy ease into our community.” Cochran said the section of the policy

which states that FSU does not accept direct or indirect funding, including gifts or anything else of value, from tobacco companies would be “tricky” to uphold.

“Indirect funding seems like it can be a ‘can of worms’ kind of thing,” he said. “It’s like tracking [relationships] of com-panies.” He suggested that the indirect funding portion be eliminated from the policy.

Greenberg said, “There are so many conglomerates these days, and who knows who Philipp Morris is funding?”

Vaden-Goad added another section of the proposed policy, which prohibits companies that sell tobacco from partici-pating in campus events such as career fairs, could apply to a place like Wal-greens. She said the committee will re-word the two bullets.

Greenberg said he was “torn between the idea of the smoke-free campus and the tobacco-free campus” because sec-ondhand smoking is dangerous to others, while chewing tobacco is only harmful to those who use it.

Greenberg asked who has the jurisdic-

tion of the sidewalks.Associate Vice President of Capital

Planning and Director of Facilities War-ren Fairbanks said the public street side-walks are town property and not campus property.

Fairbanks said the implementation and compliance section of the proposed policy, which states that all tobacco waste

management product will be removed from campus, will make the littering problem worse. He suggested if a penalty for littering were to be implemented in the policy, it might help decrease smok-ing on the public roads and sidewalks.+H DGGHG ´:LWKRXW FOHDUO\ GHÀQHG

penalties for breaking this policy, I think LWPLJKWEHYHU\GLIÀFXOW WREHVXFFHVV-ful.”

Fairbanks said because littering is more of a public health issue than a law enforcement issue, campus police “might QRWÀQGLWWKHLUGXW\WRHQIRUFHWKLVSRO-LF\µEXWOLWWHULQJLVDÀQDEOHRIIHQVHRQstate property.

Cochran said the no-smoking signs around campus should also warn against littering.

He also suggested the policy should specify whether possession of an un-opened pack of cigarettes constitutes a violation.

“If that’s not the case, then the word ‘use’ needs to be included somewhere,” he said.

Committee on Diversity and Inclu-sion member Emmanuella Gibson said the school needs to put an optimistic spin

on the policy and put out “positive health messages.” She said that at one of FSU’s sister schools, administrators passed out “thank you for not smoking” cards to en-courage students to quit.

Administrative Assistant to the Of-ÀFHRIWKH3UHVLGHQW.DWLH5HVWXFFLDVDLGthe start date will be unfair to incoming freshmen who have already applied to the school under the impression that smok-ing will be allowed on campus. She sug-gested a one-year transition period so that the information packets can be changed to include the policy and current students can take part in cessation classes.

Greenberg said he is concerned that the tobacco-free policy will prevent po-tential students and staff from applying to the school.

Kemegue said the intent of the policy was not to discourage people from ap-plying, but to persuade people to “get rid of your cigarette and dispose of it before you come to campus.”

Gibson said people will “look at Framingham State as a school that pro-vides great education and a great school environment,” and that the policy won’t necessarily discourage them from attend-ing.

Vaden-Goad and Kemegue reminded participants in the forum that an elec-tronic form of feedback has been set up on MyFramingham and encouraged them to include edits of unclear wording within the policy.

Vaden-Goad said she is “optimistic that at the end of the process, we will have DSROLF\WKDWZLOOÀWWKHFRPPXQLW\µ

Subscription-based Internet connections now available in dormsA “test-pilot” phase was “adminis-

tered to several students during the spring of 2011,” said Zinkus. This was under-taken to detect any before the offering went public to the entire university.

He said that it was fully launched for students at the beginning of fall semester 2012.

The broadband connection is provided by an outside company, Campus Televi-deo, which currently provides cable TV services to the FSU campus.

FSU allowed outside companies to bid for its “contract for data services,” Zinkus said. Campus Televideo secured the con-tract after a “competitive process.”

The service allows students to choose between two options of broadband Ether-net - basic or premium.

According to the Campus Televideo website, the basic offering will give sub-scribers a modest internet connection of up to 3Mb down / 768k up for $16.99 a month.

The premium bandwidth will provide a much faster internet connection with up to 10Mb down / 768k up will cost stu-dents $29.99 per month.

So far, 12 students have signed up for the service - nine have signed up for the 3M rate and three have signed up for the 10M rate.

Students need a valid credit or debit card to buy the service, and there is a $25 activation fee.

Once signed up, students will receive a self-installation kit that will be mailed to their dorm rooms.

Zinkus said that outside of some “dif-ÀFXOW\ LQLWLDOO\ VHWWLQJ XS WKH URXWHU E\themselves,” students should have no

problem using their new Internet connec-tion. 6WXGHQWV ZKR KDYH GLIÀFXOW\ VHWWLQJ

up the device can receive “technical as-sistance,” he said.

Timothy Fredette, a junior computer science major, said while he understands why students would pay for a private Internet connection with a higher band-width capacity, he does not believe it’s worth the price tag.

“While 10 MB isn’t bad, $30 for the restrictions of having no wireless connec-tions is not desirable,” Fredette said. That the connection would only be accessible through a hard line - an Ethernet cable - in a dorm room could pose “a potential problem for some people or room set-ups.”

Having seen fellow students play Xbox Live and stream video content from websites like Hulu using the campus’ free Internet network, Fredette said he’s not sure whether what FSU and Campus Televideo is offering is worth the money.

“I personally would rather just suck up the poor bandwidth sharing to play JDPHVZDWFK1HWÁL[HWFWKHQSD\IRUDsubscription,” Fredette said.

Art major Linnette Rodriguez, a se-nior, said she believes the offering is a good idea, but has no interest in paying for it.

“I have enough bills and art expens-es,” she said, “that I don’t think I would bother with taking on another monthly bill, you know?”

Minnie Salhotra, another senior art major, said, “I think it’s a good idea but I think it’s kind of silly that they went through all this trouble just so students could play video games online.”

SGA grants History Club funding for Washington trip

$WLWVÀUVWPHHWLQJDIWHU7KDQNVJLY-ing break, SGA allocated $8,103 Tues-day to The History Club for its upcom-ing trip to Washington D.C. this March.

The History Club will be traveling to Washington from Mar. 16-20 touring the capital and visiting museums.

The funds allocated will cover the cost of travel and lodging for 25 stu-dents. $3,564 of the $8,103 will cover the Amtrak tickets, and History Club President Justin Murray said he plans to get Metro passes for transportation around the city.

Murray said that all of the Smithson-ian museums are free of charge and that he also hopes to get passes for all the students to visit the Pentagon.

The trip will cost $75 per person in addition to funds allocated by SGA. Tickets will be sold in the game room at the start of next semester.

The Ski and Snowboard Club re-quested $1,340 for a tubing trip to Nashoba Valley, with tickets totaling $1,040. The remaining $300 will cov-er the cost of the bus. The tubing trip would be free of charge for students as LWLVWKHÀUVWWULSRIWKHVHDVRQDFFRUGLQJto President Kendall Valente.

Last year, BSU attended the confer-ence and President Samantha Michel said it was “an interactive way to get FSU students involved.”

Michel said she implements what she learned at the conference in her weekly meetings with BSU to do “something different - you don’t want to give the group the same thing every week.”

The club was awarded the full amount for the conference. SGA Presi-dent Hannah Bruce told Michel, “I just want to let you know, you’ve done so much for BSU.”

This summer, Biology Professor Aline Davis, Instructoral Technologist Clair Waterbury, Director of Technology Robin Robinson and contributors from ,76 WKH (GXFDWLRQ 7HFKQRORJ\ 2IÀFHand other staff members were recog-nized for their efforts at the Blackboard World Conference.

Blackboard World hosts an annual FRQIHUHQFHDWZKLFKSURIHVVRUVFDQ´ÀQGout about Blackboard updates and en-hance their learning experience,” accord-ing to Davis. An iPad project, piloted by the FSU team, placed gold in the mobile LQQRYDWLRQVFDWHJRU\DORQJZLWKÀYHRWK-er teams from across the country.

Davis and Waterbury, along with oth-er members of their mobile task force, have spent several semesters developing new mobile technology at FSU.

“We have a lot of initiatives on cam-pus,” said Waterbury.

According to Waterbury, the Leon-hard Lab started a yearly grant, the MSL Grant, for which faculty can apply to fund ideas researching how they can en-

hance their teaching and learning using technology.

The MSL Grant can range from $10,000-$30,000, according to Water-bury. Davis’ iPad project was granted about $20,000 this year for purchasing iPads for staff for “testing purposes” and 20 additional tablets with keyboards for students. Waterbury said that most likely, not all of the grant money will be used for the project because project coordina-tors overestimated the amount of money they needed for purchasing Lenovo tab-lets.

According to Waterbury, approxi-mately 10 faculty members applied for the grant last spring. Three of the tech-nology-based projects received funding: Davis’ Apple versus Lenovo tablet proj-ect, Art Professor Marc Cote’s research-ing of digital publication for his students’ graphic novels, and English Professor Lynn Parker’s research using tablets to look at social media.

In December 2010, Davis conceived the idea of piloting iPads in class.

According to Davis, there have not been many studies conducted about the effectiveness of tablets in the classroom.

Davis’ experiment was about getting to “know what [tablets] could do that regu-lar computers couldn’t,” and the will-ingness of students to test tablets in the classroom.

Last fall, Davis provided one-third of her Anatomy and Physiology class with iPads which were rented through ITS, on the condition that students use iPads to access the class eBook instead of the textbook. Davis chose the iPad because at the time, it was the only color tablet available which she said was essential for that class. “This [iPad] is amazing,” said Davis. “I really wanted to get stu-dents exposed to it and integrate it some-how into the classroom.”

Last spring, Davis began another pilot in which 16 of 17 students in her Neu-robiology class were given iPads. “Ev-erything was on a volunteer basis,” said Davis. She explained that the one student who was not given an iPad and did not

participate was in the experiment the pre-vious semester.

Because FSU is what Davis called a “PC-based school,” she aimed to incor-porate Lenovo tablets, which are An-droid based, into her current study.

This fall, Davis chose her Anatomy and Physiology class again, but gave half of the class Lenovo tablets and the other half iPads. Each tablet had the same fea-tures and included keyboard cases. The study researched whether Android or Apple tablets are more useful for college students.

For each study, students were asked to take surveys and participate in focus JURXSV WR GLVFXVV ZKDW ZDV EHQHÀFLDOabout using tablets.

to other devices.“We know what the iPads can do,”

said Davis. “We are learning more about it every semester. We want to see if it makes a difference.”

Davis said the tablets for the studies were not monitored. “We actually en-courage tablet use for other things,” she said. “When you play games on it, you learn about how to use it.

“It would not have worked without … everybody working together,” said Davis. “If any components had said no, the whole thing wouldn’t have worked as well as it has.”

Parker’s MSL Grant will be funding research to incorporate social media into her Victorian Period class in the spring. The grant covers the costs of hiring an assistant for the pilot, purchasing iPads, and hosting a “Victorian-style party” for the class late next spring.

Parker attempted a small pilot using social media last year in a linked gen. ed. class with Art Professor Elizabeth Perry.

“It was really fun, so I’m making it bigger. … I’m going to integrate it more into the system,” said Parker

For the class, Parker explained stu-dents will utilize the iPads to create foot-notes using annotation software, ENota-tion Classics. Later in the semester, they will be combined to create a class eBook.

Students enrolled in the class will also be given Victorian-related roles which they will use to interact with classmates and create journals around their charac-ters. Parker said students will also be able to use their annotation research database to research their Victorian characters.

“I’m excited,” said Parker. “I hope it DGGVDNLQGRIÁDYRUDQG]HVWDQHZNLQGof learning to the classroom.”

The “mobile task force” has also de-veloped a new mobile web application called FSUgo. According to Waterbury, the app has been “worked on and devel-oped,” but has only been soft launched.

FSUgo provides information about RamTram schedules, dining hours and menus, upcoming events, FSU athletics

scores and much more. “How can we help students and faculty better get the information about Framingham State on devices they are using?” asked Wa-terbury, referring to the usefulness of FSUgo.

The technology center and ITS have also made improvements on the Black-board website and released a mobile Blackboard app.

On the Blackboard website, the login page had graphic design work imple-mented to better serve students.

Waterbury said the new mobile app has been very successful. In about four weeks, the app had seen over 13,300 unique visitors, peaking at about 600 unique visitors per day, according to Wa-terbury. She explained the statistics are GHYLFHVSHFLÀF

Davis also introduced her classes to

an app called Poll Everywhere that re-places using Audience Response System (ARS) remotes with mobile devices to record answers for exams and discus-sions.

Poll Everywhere is an ARS app which can be downloaded to smartphones and tablets. The app is universal and gaining popularity with agencies and organiza-tions such as Google and the U.S. Cen-sus, according to the app’s website.

“You can respond with something you carry around with you every day,” said Davis. “We’re trying to give stu-GHQWVDOLWWOHPRUHÁH[LELOLW\µ

Davis also began a pilot in which half of her class downloaded the Poll Every-where app to their smartphones or iPads, and the other half used traditional ARS remotes.

The app is free for small groups, and costs as little as $15 for larger groups, which is less expensive than buying ARS remotes, which can cost hundreds or thousands of dollars to purchase on-line.

Davis and Waterbury also recom-mended some essential resources which they found are useful for students.

Skydrive, which is a free feature on FSU Outlook accounts, is a storage base in which documents, folders and images

can be stored and accessed on different devices. The feature is located under the ´2IÀFHµ RSWLRQ IROORZHG E\ VHOHFWLQJrecent documents.

Evernote is another free app that VWRUHVZULWWHQÀOHVZKLFKFDQEHRSHQHGon nearly any device. This app enables students to access class notes without having their laptops or notebooks on hand.

Atomic learning, which is a free ser-vice linked to MyFramingham, is a tu-torial system which can help improve skills on more than 130 common appli-cations, including Photoshop, InDesign and Excel.

The feature is located under the Ac-counts tab in MyFramingham under the Technology box.

“[When it comes to] technology in the classroom, I’m kind of both ways,” said sophomore communication arts ma-jor Hunter Seabrook. “On one hand, I’m paying for the class, so I should have the right to do what I want [by using cell-phones]. On the other hand, being on a cell phone means you’re distracted and not learning during that time.”

Sophomore pre-engineering major Rich Sullivan said “It can be very help-ful, but it also has its downsides, like dis-tracting people. But it also can be useful IRUÀQGLQJLQIRIRUSURMHFWVµ

Sociology Professor Linnea Carlson uses technology as an important compo-nent in her sociology classes.

“I’ve sort of moved away from taking students away from their technology,” said Carlson. “I’ve noticed the atten-tion span of some of the students is quite short. I think [technology] helps people focus a lot.”

Cafeteria expansion expected to start in April

ter. The cafeteria will be expanded by

more than 5,000 square feet, said Hamel.Some students have complained that

the current size of the cafeteria has failed to accommodate their needs.

“There are times when I had to wait for a table to open up during lunch, or ask Edith if I could take my food out to the commuter caf where there were more seats,” said sophomore Tony Coletti.

Eddy said, with the increase of seat-ing, there will be “ample space for all students to utilize the Dining Commons ZLWKRXW KDYLQJ WR ÀQG VHDWLQJ LQ WKHMarketplace or utilize a Meal Exchange, HVSHFLDOO\GXULQJSHDNWUDIÀFSHULRGVµ

The current residence cafeteria holds 520 seats and it is expected to increase by a net of 250 seats, said Hamel.

The expansion will not only offer more seating, but it will have additional restrooms and prep area for the kitchen.

Eddy said students would be happy to have restrooms inside the Dining Com-PRQVIRUWKHÀUVWWLPH

“I hate having to use the bathroom when I’m in the caf. … I ’d have to let the person swiping cards know where I was going so they’d let me back in without swiping my card again,” said sophomore Nina Anketell.

The new dining area will also have a wall that can close to make it a separate forum area.

Eddy said this functional space could be utilized during off-peak periods for student events, meetings, banquets and conferences.

Hamel added, “It [the cafeteria] will have its own entrance and a separate area where there’s bingo and stuff like that. They [SUAB] will be able to have two

events going on at the same time. Es-pecially on Friday nights or weekends where we can get away with not hav-ing all the additional seating, it becomes available for functional space.”

The layout of the current cafeteria will

remain the same, though. It was last ren-ovated in 2005, said Eddy.

There will be no real renovations to the current cafeteria other than adding different seating options, said Hamel. “It’s a possibility in the future we are hoping to put in some booth seating.”

Hamel added, “The expansion is be-

ing funded by multiple sources. It’s a 3.7 PLOOLRQ GROODU SURMHFW «:H ÀQDQFHG2.4 million of that through the State Col-lege Building Authority. We went out and pledged revenue, like a mortgage.

Hamel said FSU took $150,000 from

the Food Service Trust Fund Account. “Essentially, the meal revenues that come in are deposited, and we pay for expenses when we build up a balance in there, so we were able to use $150,000 from that balance in FY12. In FY13, we’re also scheduling an additional $100,000 from that trust fund.”

A total of $300,000 was provided by FSU from the college operations sup-port fund. The school also received an $850,000 contribution from Sodexo, Hamel said.

Sodexo has been partnering with the university for almost 30 years now and KDVUHQHZHGDQRWKHUÀYH\HDUDJUHHPHQWwith FSU, said Eddy.

Meal exchanges will continue to be provided even with the additional seat-ing.

Eddy said, “Meal exceptions will still be available for students who cannot make it to a meal due to class, work or an internship.”

Junior Audrey Farenga said, “It’s im-SRVVLEOH WR ÀQG D VHDW LQ WKH FDIHWHULDsometimes. I’m glad they’ve taken no-tice of the amount of students who try to eat there, and I’m excited they’re going to expand it.”

Junior Kendall McLellan, said, “Sometimes, I’d rather have a meal ex-change than go to the caf. I think the food there is better and I don’t mind sit-ting by myself if none of my friends are around to grab food with me.”
