GSU NOVEMBER 23, 2009 BOWLING GREEN STATE UNIVERSITY Top Stories BGSU sociologists take closer look at teen dating violence In Brief Everyone has heard the harrowing, sad stories of domestic violence reported by the media. Calendar Three BGSU sociologists hope their ongoing research can be applied to doing something Job Postings about it at an early age. Obituaries Dr. Peggy Giordano, a Professor Emeritus of sociology, and Drs. Wendy Manning and Monica Longmore have received nearly $600,000 from the National Institute of Justice for further study of teenage dating violence and contexts in which it occurs. The work, Giordano said, is “a logical extension” of their Toledo Adolescent Relationships Study (TARS), in which more than 1,300 Lucas County teens have been interviewed four times since 2000. With the new grant, about 400 members of the group who are now 18 years old will be interviewed again, beginning in August. TARS participants have been asked about their dating and sexual lives in the past. The researchers have data on such aspects of their romantic relationships as jealousy and verbal conflict, which may relate to the risk of violence.

  • Flyer Pride Fall 2013
    In July of 2011, I agreed to become the part-time, interim president of Norwalk Catholic School for one year. Today, three years later, I can say my tenure as president has been among the most rewarding time of my life. I stayed three years because of the overwhelming support that I received from the entire Norwalk Catholic School family. I was inspired by the dedication of the school staff. They are here because they want to be here. This is their vocation. I was impressed by the motivation of the students and by the cooperation that I received from their parents. Whenever called upon, we could muster a legion of volunteers at a moment’s notice. Lastly, I stayed three years because I embraced the unique mission of our school: To develop Disciples of Christ To promote academic excellence To foster a respectful community I witnessed the high academic expectations of our teachers on a daily basis. Our elementary school is one of a handful of schools in the state that has been chosen to be a finalist for the national Blue Ribbon School recognition. Our high school test scores are consistently among the highest in our area. The honors and accomplishments of our most recent graduating class illustrate the achievements of our students. There is no question in my mind that our students are receiving an academically challenging education in a faith-filled environment. Service to our community is an integral part of our curriculum. Ask any of our elementary students about their motto and they will shout - ”We Live to Serve”.

  • Ohio Administrative Code Rule 3341-1-03 Emergency Cancellation, Delay and Closing Policy and Procedures
    Ohio Administrative Code Rule 3341-1-03 Emergency cancellation, delay and closing policy and procedures. Effective: March 16, 2015 (A) Policy statement and purpose This policy provides a framework and protocol for modifying normal operations during seasonal inclement weather, health hazards, or other emergencies. The development of this policy and these procedures have been guided by the belief that the university is a community and as such is normally open during periods of ordinary seasonal inclement weather or other minor disruptions. The university equally values the safety and lives of all students, faculty and staff, while recognizing that we must maintain the effective operation of the university during inclement weather and other disruptions when possible. Faculty, staff and students must assume responsibility for their own health and safety, as well as for their class and work responsibilities. While this frequently requires a delicate balance, each individual must be the ultimate decision-maker of whether to travel to or across one of our campuses under varying conditions. (B) Introduction An emergency closing of Bowling Green state university (BGSU) will be implemented only under severe and extreme circumstances. Every effort will be made to maintain classes and all employees are expected to report to work unless they specifically hear otherwise. However, when health or safety conditions and/or a declared state of emergency due to other factors warrants, the university may delay the opening of the university or specific offices and areas, cancel some or all classes and/or activities, or implement an emergency closing of all or part of the university.
