I hope that this newsletter fi nds you Hwell and that you enjoyed our New England fall and holiday season. This past fall, Alpha Chi hosted our Induction ceremony on Sunday, November 11, 2018. Thirteen undergraduates, 41 graduate students, and one community leader were inducted into Sigma Theta Tau. The keynote address was presented by our former Undergraduate Associate Dean, Professor Sean P. Clarke RN, PhD, FAAN, who spoke about the importance of mentorship, guidance and leadership. [AH1] [n2] This was the fi rst year that Alpha Chi held our Induction ceremony in the Fall and it was well received by the inductees and their guests. Our 2019 Induction ceremony is scheduled for the fall 2019 Please be on the lookout for future notices. The 2018 Father Gorman lecture was given by Rachel Preiss RN, MS, WHNP-BC, a former graduate of Boston College and current Alpha Chi Executive Board member. Rachel spoke about the Massachusetts Department of Public Health’s Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner’s program and Telemedicine in Nursing. This program is one of the 1st in the country providing care to sexual assault victims throughout the commonwealth. It serves as a model for other states seeking to expand services to sexual assault victims. Lastly, I wanted to inform you that Alpha Chi’s website is currently not functioning. This is due to a new change in IT infrastructure at Boston College rendering our website incompatible. The executive board is working with our webmaster, Chris Vu, to build a new and improved website. We expect to have our website up and functioning by this summer. Finally, next year Alpha Chi will celebrate 50 years!! The executive board and committee members are seeking ideas on how to celebrate our anniversary. Should you wish to participate, please contact any member of the executive board. As always you are welcome to attend our monthly meetings. Best wishes for a great spring. Keep warm!! Best, A¡¢¢£ H£¤¤¥¢, RN, P¦D, WHNP-BC P¤§¢¥¨§©ª, A«¦£ C¦¥ C¦£«ª§¤, B¬¢ª¬© C¬§®§ • 2019 5 BOSTON COLLEGE NAMED a 2018 Center of Excellence by the National League of Nursing oston College has been named a 2018 Center of BExcellence by the National League of Nursing and recognized as a 2018 award recipient for promoting the pedagogical expertise of faculty.

This TV drama series of American crime created by Joe Penhall is based on the book, Mindhunter, which captures Dr. Burgess’s research. “Criminal motivation was largely a mystery and the fi eld of forensics comparatively primitive when then-FBI Director William Webster issued a mandate to provide police and agents with training in investigating rapes and interviewing rape victims,” Burgess said.

She continues applying her research to new areas, such as the study of school shooters and elderly abuse, while teaching a full load of courses.

  • STTI Scholarship Defined
    STTI Scholarship Defined The mission of the Honor Society of Nursing, Sigma Theta Tau International (STTI), is advancing world health and celebrating nursing excellence in scholarship, leadership, and service. Nurses in all settings develop and use scientific evidence to advance health. Sigma Theta Tau International has promoted the development of and shared definitions and resources related to clinical scholarship (Dreher, 1999) and the scholarship of reflective practice (Freshwater, Horton-Deutsch, Sherwood & Taylor, 2005). Over the past decade, understanding of the nature of scholarship has expanded to embrace implementation and translation sciences, the harnessing of large sets of clinical data to provide evidence for practice increasingly in real time, the potential of social media to provide leading indicators of population health status, and additional focus on health outcomes related to health care policy. For that reason, STTI is building on the work of Dreher and of Freshwater et al. to provide an expanded understanding of scholarship to inform not only the development of, but also the translation of scientific evidence in all aspects of nursing practice. Clinical scholarship is described by Dreher (1999) as an intellectual endeavor that entails systematic inquiry and scrutiny of practice in an effort to continually improve nursing practice. Clinical scholarship is informed by and inspires research. It enhances the development of nursing knowledge by testing clinical realities against theories in varied settings with diverse populations. Dreher describes clinical scholarship as entailing observation, analysis, synthesis, application, and dissemination. She also describes clinical scholarship as being characterized by the fact that it is value-driven, autonomous, and creative.
