POSITIVE, CARING APPROACH SERVES TO ENCOURAGE POSITIVE OUTCOMES

Even before attending Florida Southern as a student in the Registered Nurse-to- Bachelor of Science in Nursing (RN-BSN) program, Dr. Carrie Riley Risher ’01 was familiar with the campus. In the late 1960s, she attended a “little theatre” summer camp hosted by the theatre department, and recalls playing a fairy in one of the productions.

“I was young, but I remember,” she says.

An assistant professor in the School of Nursing and Health Sciences, Dr. Risher has served as coordinator of the RN-BSN program, which was designed to provide an avenue for associate degree (AD) nurses to earn a B.S. in Nursing. She took its helm in summer 2016, teaching courses such as Leadership and Management, and Evidence-Based Health, and Nursing Capstone Seminar.

Dr. Risher’s review of archived data related to the RN-BSN program during its 44 years at FSC inspired a research study that assessed the barriers and challenges faced by African American nurses in Central Florida, with the hope of increasing minority students’ enrollment. Her research was accepted for a podium presentation at the Sigma International Nursing Education Research Conference in Washington, D.C., and for publication in the Journal of Cultural Diversity. (The oldest nursing program at FSC, the RN-BSN program entered its final semester in spring 2021 as the result of decreased need in the community and a shift in focus to other nursing education tracks and programs.)

The core of Dr. Risher’s teaching philosophy always has been to serve as a positive role model by displaying attributes of caring, compassion, comportment, conscience, competence, and communication. She believes that the best patient outcomes are essentially at arm’s reach in nursing.

In addition to her time spent with students in the classroom and in local hospitals and clinics, Dr. Risher has served as a board member and ambassador for Girls Incorporated of Lakeland and Bartow, a nonprofit offering daily after-school and summer programs for girls in kindergarten through Grade 12. As part of a summer program for Girls Inc., Dr. Risher presented a discussion titled “What Is Nursing?” for girls between the ages of 9 and 12.

“I wanted the girls to grasp how selfless nursing is,” she says, “and what it is like to be a part of the most trusted profession in the world.”

BUSINESS PROFESSOR’S ECONOMIC INTERESTS RANGE FROM REGIONAL TO INTERNATIONAL

Combining his academic interests in economic growth with research focusing on income inequality and poverty in developing countries, Dr. Joshua Hall explores ways to effectively bring international economics and statistical analysis into the undergraduate classroom.

An assistant professor of economics in the Barney Barnett School of Business and Free Enterprise since 2016, Dr. Hall also serves as a Fellow for the Center of Free Enterprise — a role which, in pre-COVID days, involved organizing and facilitating appearances by three or four speakers each semester. Typically, these events also would include several large-scale discussions with students, faculty, and community members.

In 2018, Dr. Hall took students to Spain on an FSC-sponsored trip, and he looks forward to leading more trips in the future. International travel has been an important aspect of his personal and academic experiences; he previously had led student trips to Argentina, Chile, Ghana, and Italy.

As a researcher, he and Dr. Peter Bias recently looked at almost 50 years of data to explore theories based on the work of economist Irving Fisher concerning the relationship between inflation and interest rates: “Inflation has been stubbornly low, so the idea was that maybe if we increase interest rates, that could boost inflation. We were looking to see whether that idea was actually borne out in the data and we found that, largely, it’s not. It was inflation that affected interest rates.”

A similar pedagogical project, shared with faculty around the country, provided educators with an adjustable template to use as a tool in bringing the research into their classrooms.

During the 2020-2021 academic year, Dr. Hall has worked collaboratively with two graduating seniors on separate independent-study projects involving education. Carissa Schwartz has examined degree completion rates at 46 schools in the Southeast to determine relevant factors that may account for variations from school to school, and Ben Silva has explored the quality of education at Florida’s public high schools in comparison to those in the other 49 states.

“Much of my current research focuses on the factors that contribute to greater economic growth and a more equitable distribution of income — specifically, how both the quality and quantity of education affect these factors,” says Dr. Hall.

DIRECTOR OF CLINICAL EDUCATION BRINGS ATHLETIC RESEARCH, PRACTICAL REALITIES INTO PHYSICAL THERAPY CLASSROOMS

Dr. Christy Martin Morgan ’06, a Florida Southern alumna with degrees in biology and psychology, returned to the College in January 2018 to become director of clinical education in the School of Physical Therapy. She arrived about 18 months before the new program accepted its first class of students.

“My primary role at that time was to develop the clinical education component of our curriculum and to ensure that all our students would get the required clinical experiences,” says Dr. Morgan. The latter process required her to line up contracts and letters of intent from 150 percent of the clinical sites needed to provide FSC’s students with practicum experiences.

Before returning to Florida Southern, Dr. Morgan was a full-time physical therapist working mostly with runners, swimmers, triathletes, and participants in other types of athletics, as well as pregnant and postpartum athletes. A board-certified specialist in sports physical therapy, she brought that profession focus with her to FSC.

“We have a national conference through the American Physical Therapy Association, the biggest physical therapy conference every year,” Dr. Morgan says. At recent conferences, pre-COVID, she delivered Science Meets Practice presentations about gender differences in female athletes and ensuring readiness for a return to sports.

“Science Meets Practice is a hybrid format, a mix of platform presentations and a more traditional lecture,” she explains. “Which fits nicely for me, because I teach a course in our program called ‘Advanced Clinical Problem Solving across the Lifespan.’ That has been a great way to integrate what I’m doing at the conference and bring it into the classroom.”

During semesters when physical therapy students are not involved in their clinicals, Dr. Morgan teaches an “Information Hour” course — uncredited, but mandatory — to prepare students for a wide array of study-related areas such as time management and test-taking strategies, and pre-clinical topics such as OSHA and HIPAA training, resume writing, and interviewing.

“I try to tailor it, each semester, based on what their particular interests are,” Dr. Morgan says. “We’ve talked about physical therapists who work in an emergency room setting, residencies and fellowships, and I’ve had a guest who spoke on financial planning to help the students understand how to pay back loans.”
