Laura’s research project was a paper titled “City Walls as Political Canvas: Loyalist and Republican Murals in Derry,” which was completed for History 498: Historical Field Studies Abroad: Place, Politics, and Memory in Irish History, in spring 2009. The paper involved research that was inspired by the murals Laura visited in the city of Derry, while on the Course Abroad program led by CCSU Professor of History Louise Williams.

Nam has distinguished herself as a print and online newspaper reporter and Kilimanjaro editor, magazine writer, TV anchor and host, and blogger. Among Nam’s many accom- plishments, one item of particular note is that she hosted a program called "The Journey from Vietnam to Mount Everest." In the process of working on that project, she became the first woman from Vietnam to summit Kilimanjaro, and spent several months writing, editing, and hosting a weekly reality show from Everest Base Camp, all the while con- tinuing to write her weekly newspaper column. When asked about how she found the physical strength and endurance to literally climb mountains for her work, Nam said, “If you want to summit the mountain, you have to summit by your spirit, by your mind...I am a tiny person, but my spirit is big.” While improving her English language skills in the Intensive English Language Program, Nam continues to share her expertise as a journalist here in the U.S. She is currently serving as a member of the Culture Committee for the Institute for Vietnamese Culture and Education (IVCE) in New York City, and she has also been invited to be a guest speaker in the Vietnamese Language Program at Yale University. Nam plans to pursue a Master’s degree in Journalism at Quinnipiac University in Spring 2011.

CCSU students may now choose to participate in either the new program, or the long-standing Global Governance and East Asian Civilization program, which has been rising in popularity among CCSU students in recent years. The new program, Sustainable Development towards a Green Planet , provides increased opportunities for CCSU students to study such topics as: climate and environmental change; the international political economy of sustainability; energy systems engineer- ing; renewable and green energy sources; water quality; and the future and challenge of nuclear energy. This program is particularly suitable for geography, engineering, and political science majors, though students of any major may apply. The older program, Global Governance and East Asian Civilization, offers students two tracks of courses to choose from: Track I: United Nations and International Non-Governmental Organizations, and Track II: Global Governance and East Asian Civilization. Both programs are one-month long, and students can earn up to six credit hours. Program faculty are drawn from prestigious universities in Asia and the United States, including Peking University, Ritsumeikan University, Moscow State University, and the University of Pennsyl- vania. Each summer, Central Connecticut State University students are invited to apply, and financial support is available through the Center for International Education. For more information about both of these programs, visit the CIE’s website at www.ccsu.edu/coursesabroad and click on summer 2010. CCSU Student Receives Gilman Scholarship We are pleased to announce that Ms. Jenna Aubertin, a junior Accounting major at CCSU, has received the highly competitive Gilman schol- arship to support her studies abroad at the University of Hertfordshire in England this semester. The Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship Program offers grants for U.S. citizen undergraduate students to pursue academic stud- ies abroad. The Gilman Scholarship Program aims to support students who have been traditionally under-represented in study abroad, including but not limited to, students with high financial need, community college students, students in under-represented fields such as the sciences and engineering, students with diverse ethnic backgrounds, and students with disabilities. The program seeks to assist stu- dents from a diverse range of public and private institutions from all 50 states, Washington, DC and Puerto Rico. To be eligible, students must be a U.S. Citizen studying at a 2 to 4 year college or university and receiving federal Pell Grant funding. Award recipients are chosen by a competitive selection process and must use the award to defray eligible study abroad costs.

Wierba (engineers and technicians) Third year of HERA operation was a very successful one for the HERA crew. Experiments (ZEUS and HI) collected more than 3pb~1 of the integrated luminosity compared to ()00nb~^ in the previous year. Higher luminosity means also higher rates and higher background. That created new problems for our experiment at the beginning of the running period. The common effort of all groups taking care of the different detector components resulted in a smooth and successful running of the ZEUS experiment. The main responsibility of the Cracow group is the reliable performance of the Luminosity Monitor, which has been designed and built by our group. That means the maintenance of the detector, continuous development of the online and offline software tools and the luminosity measurement itself. A very detailed offline analysis of the 1993 luminosity data was done in 1994. This resulted in much better understanding of the systematic effects influencing the luminosity measurement. The systematic error in the determination of the integrated luminosity is now below 2.5%. Modification of the hardware setup, especially replacement of the photomultipliers in the calorimeters, made during the 1993/1994 winter shutdown, allowed for more stable opera- tion in the 1994 running period. Much improvement has also been achieved in both offline and online software.
