  • 2004-2005 Profile
    2004-2005 Profile MOREHEAD STATE UNIVERSITY Office of Institutional Research & Computer Applications June 2005 Foreword The 2004/2005 academic year brought a change in leadership as the university’s 12th president, Dr. Ronald G. Eaglin retired on December 30, 2004 and the 13th president, Dr. Wayne D. Andrews took office on January 1, 2005. A formal investiture ceremony for Dr. Andrews was held on May 13, 2005. Since Dr. Eaglin chose not to have a ceremony when he took office in 1992, this was the first formal ceremony since the inauguration of Dr. C. Nelson Grote in 1987. In this, the twenty-sixth edition of the Profile, you will notice a change in some of the CIP codes in the ‘Headcount and Credit Hours by CIP/MSU Majors’ table. The Council on Postsecondary Education required all institutions to convert from CIP1990 codes to CIP2000 codes on July 1, 2004. This conversion resulted in 20 program code changes at Morehead State University. These changes will not be reflected on the ‘Degrees Conferred by CIP/MSU Major’ table until next year since the 2003-04 degrees reported in this Profile were prior to the code change. Statistics included in the Profile are derived from the official fall enrollment and annual degrees conferred that are reported to the Council on Postsecondary Education (CPE) as well as data reported to the national Integrated Post-Secondary Education Data System (IPEDS). Additional data sources are noted directly on the charts or tables. This Profile, along with the past 4 years Profiles, is available online at www.moreheadstate.edu/units/irca.

Several recruitment events were coordinated with Morehead State University’s (MSU) Enrollment Services Department and with several of our community partners. On May 9 the Bullitt County Advanced Science and Math students were welcomed to the Department of Nursing. Forty-five freshman and sophomore students in the Advanced Science and Math track at Bullitt county HS along with two teachers were actively involved in “hands-on” activities in the clinical laboratories. Students learned about assessing patients and were involved with mannequins to perform some advanced Dr. Lynn C. Parsons cardiac life support (ACLS) interventions. Bullitt County High School teachers said that Department Chair the students enjoyed the experience-perhaps too much! The health-related departments of Biology/Chemistry, Kinesiology/Health & Imaging Sciences. Nursing and Psychology participated in the 2nd Career Fair in collaboration with MSUs Enrollment Services. Clinical agencies need health care providers in all disciplines and counselors are needed in the prison systems. The Department of Nursing has a 100% job placement rate for students who seek employment. This spring 2018 semester, we welcomed Dr. Shannon Smith-Stephens in a full-time faculty position. Dr. Smith-Stephens transferred from MSU’s Counseling and Health Services where she had practiced since 2011.

    SGT. YORK TROPHY In July 2007, the Nashville Sports Council and the Ohio Valley Con- ference announced the creation of the Sergeant York Trophy which goes to the winner of the quadrangular season football series between the four Ohio Valley Conference schools located in the state of Tennessee – Austin Peay State University, University of Tennessee at Martin, Tennessee State University and Tennessee Technological University. The award is only the second traveling trophy that involves more than two teams in college sports; the other is the Commander in Chief’s Trophy which has been contested between Air Force, Army and Navy annually since 1972. The award is presented by Delta Dental of Tennessee and Farm Bureau Health Plans of Tennessee. In a close race, Tennessee State and Austin Peay shared the inaugural award, fi nishing with identical 2-1 records in 2007. Tennessee State took the trophy home with it thanks to a one-point victory in overtime over the Governors; that game was decided by a blocked extra point by NFL First Round Draft Pick Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie. The award is named in honor of Alvin C. York, the most noted Soldier of World War I. As a corporal in the 2nd battalion, 328th Infantry, in the Battle of the Meuse River-Argonne (Oct. 8, 1918), York and seven other soldiers captured 132 prisoners, was promoted to sergeant and received the Distinguished Service Cross, the French Croix de Guerre, the French Legion of Honor, the Croce di Guerra of Italy and the War Medal of Montenegro. Upon his return to the United States in 1919, he was bestowed the Congressional Medal of Honor.
