Landmark Foundation Expands Student Work Program Virginia Wesleyan’s summer work program, Opus, has been extended to the full academic year thanks to a generous grant this fall from The Landmark Foundation of Norfolk. Opus was established two years ago through an initial private gift, and since its inception 46 students have participated. The program has been an overwhelming success, ensuring that students can continue their education at Virginia Wesleyan. Preference is given to rising sophomores and juniors with a personal account balance owed of $2,000 to $3,000 who also demonstrate a commitment to academic studies and campus involvement. Projects focus on corrective maintenance, grounds and landscaping, and general campus beautification efforts. The Landmark Foundation owns businesses including Dominion Enterprises and for many years The Virginian- Pilot. Frank Batten, Jr., serves as chairman, CEO and president of Landmark Media Enterprises and Dominion Enterprises. His mother Jane is a Trustee Emerita, a former VWU Board Chair, and the single greatest benefactor in University history. The Opus program enabled Dazjae Johnson ’21, an Virginia Wesleyan deeply values the longstanding aspiring pediatric oncology therapist, to continue her commitment of The Landmark Foundation and the Batten education at Virginia Wesleyan. family to the University and its students.

  • A Case Study of the Batten Leadership Institute at Hollins University Investigator: Jennifer J
    The Development of the Batten Leadership Institute at Hollins University: A Case Study By Jennifer Jordan Slusher Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In Counselor Education Dr. Gerard Lawson, co-chair Dr. Penny Burge, co-chair Dr. Hildy Getz Dr. Katherine Allen May 03, 2007 Blacksburg, VA Keywords: Leadership Training, Women’s Colleges, Women’s Leadership Development Copyright 2007, Jennifer J. Slusher The Development of the Batten Leadership Institute at Hollins University: A Case Study Jennifer Jordan Slusher ABSTRACT As leadership theory continues to develop and change, so do the attempts to enhance experiences for women in higher education. Women face many obstacles, which include lack of role models in student and institutional leaders (Astin & Leland, 1991). Traditionally, institutions offer no specific leadership programs or curricula and pay minimal attention to the leadership development of their students (Cress, Astin, Zimmerman-Oster, & Burkhardt, 2001). This study was a case study with an in-depth analysis of the establishment of a women’s leadership education and training program at Hollins University in Roanoke, Virginia. Six students, four administrators, and one intern were interviewed to illustrate the process of the planning of the program, its implementation and current operations, and the complexities involved. Document analysis and observations were utilized as well. The study was focused on the impact of the program on the students and administrators involved in the development of the program during this period. The researcher also described how the Batten Leadership Institute has evolved over the past five years with a focus on how it came into being, what it was like, then and now, and changes that have occurred.

While it represents the work of many people connected in various ways to the university, the report does not constitute an official viewpoint of Old Dominion, its president, John R. Broderick, the Board of Visitors, the Strome College of Business or the generous donors who support the activities of the Dragas Center for Economic Analysis and Policy. T The report maintains the goal of stimulating thought and discussion that will ultimately make Hampton Roads an even better place to live. We are proud of our region’s many successes and the key role we play in national security. We also realize that it is possible to improve our performance. To do so, we must have accurate, objective information about “where we stand” so we can move to “where we want to be.” The 2018 State of the Region report is divided into seven parts: Is It Morning Again in Hampton Roads? Welcome to Your New Home: International Migration and The three pillars of our regional economy (defense, the port and tourism) have Hampton Roads improved and prospects for growth are looking up.

  • Newspapers in Hampton Roads: Competition, Coverage and Issues
    newspapersECONOMIC in PERFORMANCEhampton roads AND INCOME Newspapers In Hampton Roads: Competition, Coverage And Issues very morning, Monday through Saturday, more than 290,000 residents of Hampton Roads receive a daily newspaper printed Ein the region. Meanwhile, every Sunday of the year, more than 347,000 area residents are recipients of locally produced newspapers, according to Editor & Publisher Market Guide 2002. Chances are quite good that readers of either the Norfolk- based Virginian-Pilot or the Newport News-based Daily Press will be treated every day to solid journalism, compelling photog- raphy, visually pleasing page layouts, plus editorials and columns that bring local issues to life for both consideration and pleasure. Annual evidence shows that when the Virginia Press Association issues awards for daily newspapers throughout the Commonwealth, numerous staff members from both papers are recognized for their achievements in writing, design and photography. Chances are equally good that readers of either newspaper will be reasonably familiar with the same international, national and statewide issues. The Roman Catholic cardinals’ summit with Pope John Paul II, the latest turn of events from the West Bank, the gripping news of more terrorist activities planned by members of al-Qaida and the return of the USS Cole to Hampton Roads have been featured prominently in both newspapers. Readers of both papers also can count on news of how Old Dominion University’s women’s basketball team performed against the University of Connecticut, or how the Norfolk Tides fared against the Richmond Braves in a doubleheader, or how well the Tribe of William and Mary played football against New Hampshire.
