Three students from UW-Stout were named finalists in a national college competition to invent campus greening projects. Jason Burbank of Menomonie; Tobias Leidke of Hildesheim, Germany; and Tim Parmer of Brooklyn Park, Minn., entered the Ecomagination Challenge with their Happy MicroOrganism Compost Train. The three art students studying industrial design created a simple and efficient system for composting large amounts of campus food waste. The UW-Stout campus produces about 53 tons of food waste a year, and it is deposited in a landfill outside of Eau Claire. The students' innovative composting system requires less energy o and labor than other composting systems currently available. z o Contest judges selected 10 finalists from more than 100 entries. » Also making the list were student teams from MIT and University of ~ -0 Michigan.

Red Cedar Hall, which opened in 2005, was awarded a special design citation by American School and University Magazine. "The design really focuses on getting students together, which can be a problem with suite/apartment living," one jury member said. Red Cedar Hall appeared in the magazine's 2007 calendar. It also was showcased in the November issue as one of 228 featured projects, and it was one of only 20 citation winners. The annual November Architectural Portfolio issue is a leading idea book for the education design and construction industry. The building was designed by SOS Architects of Eau Claire and ESG Architects of Minneapolis. on campus

For instance, art students in the senior industrial design course this past spring designed new work boot concepts for 10 years in the future. As their senior project, the students worked with the PRO Division product development team of The Timberland Co. in Stratham, N.H., to research new product work boot opportunities in construction, maintenance and factory work. The students' concepts varied from boots targeting specific jobs, such as roofing, to boot innovations in comfort, safety and stability. Each student constructed a physical model of his or her design and created two-dimensional presentation boards. Final designs were shared with Timberland executives. "Our show featured the work of 16 students in two parts: individual design research projects and a sponsored project with the Timberland Footwear company showcasing 14 new work concepts for the future," Noah Norton, assistant professor of industrial design, said. It is conceivable that by 2017, UW-Stout alumni from the construction program could be wearing the work of alumni from the art program. cover story

Research Shows Benefits of Nutrition, Human Performance labs

aura Verdegan '05, a graduate assistant in food and nutrition, researched the risk factors of female cross country runners for osteoporosis. Vital to her research were the nutritional assessment laboratory and the new human performance laboratory housed next to each other in the Home Economics building. "As these two labs continue to add equipment, their value to student research will be even greater," she said. For instance, the human development lab will soon receive a DEXA machine, or Dual Energy X-ray Absortiometry machine, which is the most widely used method to measure bone mineral density. "The DEXA would be a great resource for additional research on osteoporosis," Verdegan said. "Future students will greatly benefit from the new equipment." In addition to her research, Verdegan has played a major part in the development of the labs, and she has been responsible for the operations of the human performance lab. Her main goal has been to compile a laboratory policies and procedures manual that can be used by future graduate assistants to streamline the lab's processes.

The lab's next graduate assistant, Adam Kuchnia, is excited about taking the baton. With the manual already in place, Kuchnia can concentrate on marketing the lab - first to students, then to the community - and training others to use the equipment. "So many people are surprised to hear that these labs exist and that we can perform physical and nutritional assessments and interpret measurements," Kuchnia said. The nutritional assessment lab currently includes instruments to measure heel bone strength, body fat composition, hemoglobin and cholesterol. The human performance laboratory houses equipment to determine capacity, hand grip strength, heart rate, flexibility, body fat percentage, calorie intake requirements and, beginning this fall, overall bone density and muscle mass. "Nutrition and physical fitness go together," Kuchnia said. "I am glad both of these components can be found at Stout." For more information on the human performance lab and other food and nutritional science information, visit www.uwstout.edu/programs/msfns/pf.html TOP: Dr. David Eitrheim runs as Joe Harlan checl,s his vitals.

When a person starts to feel uncomfortable in a sitting position-usually after 15 minutes-that person moves, shifts or stands up. Improper seat fitting can cause discomfort and even serious injury. Some people who are paralyzed, however, do not sense when their tissues are compressed and need relief. This is where assistive technology can help. James Hubbard, senior rehabilitation specialist in the Stout Vocational Rehabilitation Institute, says technology such as a computerized mapping system can "provide virtual sensation for those who cannot feel pressure." SVRI staff members can provide customized seating consultations using software and a piece of cloth with 1,300 pressure sensors. When a person sits on the cloth, high-pressure points light up the computer screen with a color metric display, much like a weather radar screen. The data provide an objective analysis of the type of cushion or molded surface that will equally distribute a person's weight and protect against pressure wounds.

There are more than 16,000 golf courses in the United States, and each one needs a general manager and business manager to operate smoothly. UW-Stout has taken a swing at producing these industry leaders. UW-Stout's new golf enterprise management program is unique among university programs in that it teaches people the business acumen needed to lead in the golf industry. Other programs typically graduate golf professionals with an emphasis on teaching or playing. UW-Stout graduates business professionals with an emphasis on golf course marketing, customer development and retention, golf course design, turf management, and the environment. The program has proven popular. It graduated its first student in December 2006, and 23 students comprise the class of 2007. The program has 130 students enrolled, with 50 more freshmen coming in September. Stuclents Molly Loney and I\yle Holmlund gain business experience off tile course.

Each semester, students create social action groups through which they address community issues in Menomonie. The students are enrolled in the course Abuse and the Family, taught by Susan M. Wolfgram, assistant professor of human development and family studies. The social action group projects are an example of action learning, which emphasizes hands-on work, teamwork and problem solving to address social or organizational issues. Last fall, students tackled problems such as domestic violence, campus violence and teen dating violence. This past spring, students addressed sexual assault, child abuse, bullying and elder assault. Many of the projects are a collaboration with UW-Stout's Campus Violence Prevention Project. The projects have helped teach students about raising money, planning events and working with groups-skills that have helped them getjobs.

lolOfOJ!llIoo 00 ffftlLcL'fffifif, Focus on Healing CHD Faculty News and Notes This past October marked the :LOth annual Body, Mind and Spirit Conference, which brought healing practitioners from around the nation to UW-Stout. Anthropologist Hank Wesselman presented the pre-conference workshop, Spirit Medicine: An Overview ofShamanic Healing. His presentation examined the nature of health, illness and healing from the cross-cultural perspectives of indigenous peoples. He also was a keynote speaker for the main conference. Visionary hoop dancer Kevin Locke performed "The Hoop of Life" on the last day of the conference. Locke employed 28 hoops, the traditional frame drum and traditional singers to depict the natural, visionary process of life emerging from the darkness of winter into the light of spring. More than 20 other presenters offered sessions on alternative methods of healing, personal growth and spirituality. Since its inception, the event has been co-chaired by conference founders Tom Franklin and Bob Salt.

Lisa Grams Estey '98 designs marketing materials to support the well-known advertising line, "Beef. It's What's For Dinner." Estey, a graphic designer for the Denver-based National Cattlemen's Beef Association, said her years at UW-Stout prepared her well for the challenges of the position. Her coursework taught her the value of being able to explain her work and to give her work deeper meaning. "It's notjust slapping colors on a page, using 20 different fonts and all the Photoshop filters you can get your hands on," she said. 'There is a lot to understand about the different breeds of cattle, all the cuts of meat and understanding the mindset of rural America." She designs all types of materials, including brochures, advertisements, trade show graphics and annual reports. And the audience for her design work is far reaching, including the State Beef Council, Congress, food service personnel and customers. ABOVE: A selection of Lisa Estey's wor/c

"(J> c S S en " o o'" -J Not Your Typical Kindergarten Teacher There is a national shortage of male teachers, according to the National Education Association, and that shortage is most pronounced in elementary schools, where men make up only 9 percent of teachers. Jon Severson '06 is bucking that trend. Severson teaches kindergarten at Southview Elementary School in Waconia, Minn., 30 miles west of the Twin Cities. "With the divorce rate so high, I think some children create a relationship with me that they might not have on a consistent basis," Severson said. "Some children see their dads only on the weekends.
