Biotechnology Career-Related Videos 1. Agricultural Biotechnology: A World of Opportunity (1996), 14 min., Careers 2. Bioscience: Real Jobs, Real People (1999), 10 min., Careers This short video follows four high school students as they visit working companies on "Bioscience Career Day." Students talk with individuals representing a broad range of career tracks such as research, product development, manufacturing and management. Employees explain their day-to- day responsibilities and offer advice about pursuing a bioscience career. In addition, some common misconceptions about employment in the bioscience industry are discussed. For example: A Ph.D. is not a requirement for employment, as many believe... in fact, entry-level positions are often available at all education levels. The video is accompanied by a lesson plan that provides a motivational activity, a class activity and suggestions for closure and extensions. 3. Biotechnology: The Choice for Your Future (1992), 9 min., Careers 4. BioWork Process Overview (2001), 16 min., Careers This video can be used to enhance student career awareness of the growing employment opportunities within the bioprocess manufacturing industry. Opportunities presented here might be particularly attractive to vocationally-oriented students that have taken a biology or chemistry course. The piece features interviews with bioprocess technicians and managers employed by North Carolina biotechnology and pharmaceutical manufacturers Novozymes, Biogen, and Wyeth-Lederle. Viewers get a virtual tour of the manufacturing environment and hear first hand from employees about the significance of and satisfaction they receive from their jobs.

We gladly accepted and started packing our things – training in order to obtain the craftsmanship required to do music and finally tell the story. Act I shows how does a singer prepare for that trip to unknown, how does one gain musicianship. In Act II we are taking the first of the millions of steps a singer will take on his/her way of becoming a vibrant performer, a sensitive interpreter and an exciting communicator. This journey could also be what will make the singer meet his/her true self as one gains self- consciousness throughout the journey. Act II shows scenes from the trip - the daily friction with the musical text, the physical, emotional, mental, spiritual and intellectual approach, the coloring and redirecting of the story.

  • ARTIFACTS: SELECTED POEMS by Laurie Perry Vaughen Earl Braggs
    ARTIFACTS: SELECTED POEMS By Laurie Perry Vaughen Earl Braggs Joe Wilferth Professor of English Professor of English (Thesis Director) (Committee) Allen Wier Professor of English (Committee) ARTIFACTS: SELECTED POEMS By Laurie Perry Vaughen A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for a Master of Arts: English The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga Chattanooga, Tennessee May 2015 ii Copyright © 2015 By Laurie Perry Vaughen All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT The title, Artifacts, is a compost of words art and fact —with fact as Latin for “something made.” A poet recreates language from syllable, word, and shard, and ropes off sacred or desecrated places. The movement of the imagination from small to sublime, from clay shard or carved flint arrow to cultural landscape, is a useful analogy for poetics – a field school approach influenced by my studies in anthropology. Artifacts ’ poems vary in context ( place ), but each explores emblematic structure , kinetic tension, eco-poetics and a language-driven (vs. idea-driven) process. Sections include: Turning the Field: Structure and Surprise; Examining Shards: Emblematic Poems; Piecework Expertise: Poet as Archaeologist and Curator; and, The Nature of Dig Sites: Locality, Language and Transformation. In conclusion: “The artist, poet, ecologist and archaeologist each use imagination, locality, and all of experience to recreate a whole from fragments, emblems, syllables, and the tension of words, wire and line.” iv DEDICATION The collection of poems in this manuscript is dedicated to my children, Lorna Josephine Vaughen and Jared Victor Vaughen, my magnum opus. May you always find astonishment in the vox humana.

  • In the Words of a Woman
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Kerin G. Rose for the degree of Master of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies in English, English, and Women Studies presented on June 26, 1997. Title: In the Words of a Woman. Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: Lisa Ede I am a woman who writes. I am a writer who is a woman. In the Words of a Woman is an exploration of how these two facts of my life merge and influence each other. It is a work written to mediate between the supposed dichotomies of creative and critical, personal and academic, imaginative and scholarly. My desire is that this text will serve as autobiography, critical inquiry, creative response, and credo. The form of this thesis dances between prose and poetry. I have thoughts that need to be expressed sometimes in one form, sometimes in the other, and sometimes in the interplay of the two. As a collection of essays, I have brought together works that are primarily concerned with my story as a woman and a writer with essays that articulate my engagement in other women's writing. Within and between the prose pieces, I have included poems that touch on the same topics, giving different shadings to these themes. This text is a May Day dance, a joyous enactment of a performance long in the creating and rehearsing, not without struggles and challenges, but I hope for the reader a pleasure to participate in.
