TDD # 801-321-7130. January 10, 2007 MEMORANDUM TO: State Board of Regents FROM: Richard E. Kendell SUBJECT: Dixie State College of Utah – Bachelor of Science Degree Completion in Dental Hygiene Effective Fall 2008 – Action Item Issue Dixie State College (DSC) requests approval to offer a Bachelor of Science Degree completion program in Dental Hygiene effective Fall 2008. This program has been approved by Dixie State College’s Board of Trustees during the September 2005 Board Meeting. Background This baccalaureate degree completion program in Dental Hygiene will offer the curriculum necessary to provide career advancement opportunities in education and public health for associate credentialed Dental Hygienists. A recent survey by the American Dental Educators Association concluded that a current faculty shortage exists and projected a greater shortage of Dental Hygiene faculty in the future. This comes at a time when graduates in Dental Hygiene are in high demand on the job market. Nationally, Dental Hygiene is one of the fastest growing health related career fields. “Dental hygienists are expected to continue to be one of the fastest growing occupations through the year 2012” (U.S. Department of Labor). DSC’s current associate degree program is accredited by the American Dental Association's Commission on Dental Accreditation (ADACDA). Dental Hygienists with an associate degree from an ADA accredited program will be able to articulate into the proposed program. The proposed program will provide a career ladder for graduates who may want to enter graduate programs in Dental Hygiene, possibly via distance education (Appendix A: B.S. Curriculum). The proposed program also addresses the expanding role of the Dental Hygienist. DSC received donations of over $400,000 in the past year for this program. The funds will be used to provide scholarships in Dental Hygiene and have been used to construct a mobile dental hygiene clinic to deliver community health training to Bachelor of Science Dental Hygiene students and to provide community service to the underserved in southern Utah. The mobile unit is ready for service. Dixie State College will complete accreditation of its AAS Degree in August of 2008 after which it intends to introduce its technologically-delivered Bachelor of Science Dental Hygiene Degree completion program. Existing faculty, plus two additional faculty, and the new Russell Taylor Health Sciences Building will support the proposed program. Policy Issues USHE institutions raised no objections. Thus, there are no policy issues. Commissioner’s Recommendation The Commissioner recommends that the Regents approve Dixie State College’s request to offer a Bachelor of Science Degree completion program in Dental Hygiene, effective Fall 2008. _____________________________ Richard E. Kendell, Commissioner REK/PCS Attachment 2 3 Academic, Applied Technology, and Student Services Committee Action Item Request to Offer the Bachelor of Science Dental Hygiene Degree Completion Program Effective Fall 2008 Dixie State College of Utah Prepared for Richard E. Kendell by Phyllis C. Safman January 10, 2007 SECTION I: The Request Dixie State College (DSC) requests approval to offer a Bachelor of Science Degree completion program in Dental Hygiene effective Fall 2008. The proposed program has been approved by Dixie State College’s Board of Trustees during its September 2005 meeting. The proposed program will provide a career ladder for practicing licensed associate credentialed Dental Hygienists and recent Dental Hygiene graduates who want to continue their education. The technologically-delivered degree completion program will provide training in fields of community health and education to meet market demand. The program will use existing resources, plus two additional faculty, to support the program. SECTION II: Program Description Complete Program Description The Dental Hygiene program will offer a Bachelor of Science Degree completion program in Dental Hygiene to provide associate credentialed Dental Hygienists the next step in the career ladder in pursuit of furthering their careers in education, public health service or advanced practice in Dental Hygiene. The BS Degree completion program will be delivered via distance education utilizing WebCT programs. Associate credentialed licensed Dental Hygienists will need to complete baccalaureate degree general education requirements and complete the following course requirements: DHGY 4010 Biostatistics & Epidemiology – 2 credits DHYG 4020 Research Methodology – 2 credits DHYG 4030 Leadership and Group Dynamics – 2 credits After completion of the required courses (above) the student can choose one of the following two professional tracks: Education Professional Track DHYG 4510 Psychology and Measurement – 2 Credits DHYG 4520 Instructional Practice- 2 Credits DHYG 4530 Curriculum & Philosophical Foundations – 2 Credits Public Health Professional Track DHYG 4540 Public Health and Cultural Diversity – 2 Credits DHYG 4550 Dental Public Health Administration – 2 Credits 2 DHYG 4560 Community Services Practice – 2 Credits or DHYG 4565 Expanded Functions Certification- 2 Credits Capstone Course All students will be required to complete a capstone senior project as their final course.

  • The Touch of Human Kindness: Women and the Moral Center of Gravity”
    “The Touch of Human Kindness: Women and the Moral Center of Gravity” Elder Bruce C. Hafen and Sister Marie K. Hafen © 2001 Elder Bruce C. Hafen and Sister Marie K. Hafen. All rights reserved. Today's culture is losing the plot about marriage, motherhood, and family life. As our Primary children sing "Follow the Prophet," they sing this verse: "Now we have a world where people are confused. If you don't believe it, go and watch the news."1 Church members aren't immune from this confusion. A Latter-day Saint mother who was called to work with young single adults was expecting a new baby. One by one, several of her young women privately asked her how she really felt about having another child. In a spirit of deep womanly trust, they asked questions that reflected honest anxiety about being bound to husbands and assuming the burdens of motherhood. She told us she was surprised to hear concerns like this from young women who were believing, active Church members. In response, she invited each young woman to do what she had allowed only her husband and children to do. She tenderly placed one of their hands on her abdomen and invited them to feel the baby's movements. Then, with her hand on theirs, she lovingly taught each one that, despite the relentless demands, she had discovered an exquisite happiness through being married and having children. These young women drank with deep reassurance from her wellsprings of testimony. But today, people without mentors like that can be very confused.

The vocational classes, scattered throughout Utah and Wasatch counties, were centralized in mid-1941 under Central Utah Vocational School. Following the war, only the dogged determination of its administrators and school district officials kept the school from dissolution, and it became a permanent state-supported institution in 1947. In 1963, to reflect its evolving status and mission, Central Utah Vocational School became the Utah Trade Technical Institute at Provo. In 1967, the school was named the Utah Trade Technical College at Provo. By 1987, it became Utah Valley Community College, and by 1993 it had evolved into Utah Valley State College.
