FSW Professor Wins National Award

FSW Professor Wins National Award May 26, 2015 May 26, 2015 – LABELLE, FLA – Florida SouthWestern State College (FSW) English professor Amanda Lehrian was recently selected as a recipient of The Chair Academy’s 2015 International Exemplary Leadership Award in recognition of her work in advancing academic and administrative leadership at FSW. “Professor Amanda Lehrian is an exemplary leader in every way,” said Dr. Denis Wright, Vice President of Academic Affairs, FSW. “She is actively engaged in the college, serving as the Faculty Senate Executive Committee and as Chair of the English Department, and she has led a department with a myriad of strong personalities through recent changes.” “Even through all this, she still remains fiercely committed to students and teaching English at the FSW Hendry/Glades Center,” Dr. Wright said. “Her students are rural, first-generation, and many come from families of farm workers. Professor Lehrian’s success with these students is well-documented and remarkable.” “When I first started teaching, I never attempted to obtain positions of leadership as I worried such positions would detract from my true focus, time spent in the classroom with students,” Lehrian said. “In the early part of my career, I found myself encouraging my students to be innovative and driven, ultimately leading me to realize I needed to model the behavior. Serving in these positions within the English Department and Faculty Senate allows me to make a difference not only for my institution and colleagues but also for my students.” The Chair Academy, a department of Mesa Community College and the Maricopa County Community College District, is dedicated to delivering exemplary leadership development. The Academy has offered world-class, competency-based, leadership development programs for college and university leaders since 1992. Leadership programs are offered at the organizational, state, regional, national, and international level. #### Florida SouthWestern State College is Southwest Florida’s largest and one of the most affordable institutions of higher education. Annually serving more than 22,000 students globally, FSW offers a variety of nationally-ranked, career-focused academic programs with two- and four-year degrees, and professional certifications. Students are also active in clubs and programs catered to their interests. FSW will debut its intercollegiate athletics program in the fall 2015. Visit www.FSW.edu for more information.

FSW Research Group Journeys into a Wasps Nest

FSW Research Group Journeys into a Wasps Nest May 19, 2015 MAY 19, 2015 – LABELLE, FLA – While most people would run away at the first sight of a wasp’s nest, Dr. Henry Hermann, Florida SouthWestern State College biology professor, runs toward it. Dr. Hermann has studied paper wasps for 30 years and recently introduced a group of his biology students to the insect. “We were interested in the defensive behaviors of four species of paper wasps,” said Dr. Hermann. “It’s important to help others understand where they make their nests and how they behave before they sting to keep people safe.” According to Dr. Hermann, wasps often build their nests under houses, inside old sheds and barns, under palmetto tree leaves, and inside electrical panels, which can be dangerous for workers. When the group would find a nest, they’d set up a video camera to record the wasps’ behavior. They found that the wasps behaved differently when someone or something approached a nest. “There's a certain area around a nest where wasps will begin intimidation behaviors,” said Timothy Kelting, FSW biology student. “They'll turn toward you, open their wings, try and look threatening, and will only fly out at you as a final measure. Even then, they might not even try to sting.” “Of course at first there was a fear of getting stung, but the research focus on the wasps was very appealing to me,” Kelting said. “As the research went on, I became acclimated to being near them and knowing how they react. They're more likely to chase you if you run, for example. Or they prefer darker colors, so wearing black isn't an especially good idea.” Not all wasps are dangerous, however, and they play an important role in the environment. “Wasps help keep other insect populations under control, and they help keep away pestiferous caterpillars that can do damage to our flower and vegetable gardens,” Dr. Hermann said. “And some species aren’t aggressive or dangerous to have around.” The results of the group’s research were cataloged and submitted to the Florida Entomologist journal, so that other researchers can add and compare their findings to it in hopes of one day creating a complete defensive plan. #### Florida SouthWestern State College is Southwest Florida’s largest and one of the most affordable institutions of higher education.

FSW Student Artwork to Appear on Lamar Digital Billboards

FSW Student Artwork to Appear on Lamar Digital Billboards May 18, 2015 Three Florida SouthWestern State College (FSW) art students will see their work displayed on digital billboards in Lee County this summer thanks to a partnership between the Bob Rauschenberg Gallery and Lamar Advertising. Gallery Director Jade Dellinger worked with Lamar Advertising to secure donated billboard spots for juried student art pieces. He also organized the FSW Student Billboard Art Show to find the best designs that could be displayed for two weeks in June, and tapped internationally-acclaimed artist Dave Muller as a judge. Sixty entries were received for the FSW Student Billboard Art Show this spring and winners included: Kirsten Pettifor – “Best of Show” with $250 prize and billboard Carina Favale and Luis Mederos – “Winners” with $150 prize and billboard Angelina Zuniga-Reed, Hannah Anderson, Chris Lacoste, Ranford Campbell – “Honorable Mentions” with $100 prize “I don’t know of any other example of a juried student art exhibition transpiring in the public realm in this way,” said Dellinger. “This is an extraordinary opportunity for students. While it’s always great for them to show work in galleries, our billboard show has them thinking beyond that context on how their work may impact the broader public.” “We are very pleased with the partnership that has developed with Florida SouthWestern State College and the Bob Rauschenberg Gallery. The Arts@FSW program has done a great job utilizing outdoor advertising. The digital platform is an excellent medium to showcase the tremendously talented students of the FSW arts program,” said Stephen Sanford, Sales Manager at Lamar Advertising. Over the 2015 spring semester, the gallery purchased Lamar billboard space to promote Muller’s “Everything Sounds Good Right Now,” just as it did to highlight Yoko Ono’s “Imagine Peace” exhibition in January 2014. Not only did these billboards serve as an advertisement for upcoming exhibitions, but they were considered stand-alone pieces of public art created by the gallery’s featured artists. For more information about the gallery or upcoming events, visit www.RauschenbergGallery.com or call (239) 489-9313. Learn more about Arts@FSW and the exciting things happening at the College by visiting www.fsw.edu/artsfsw. About The Bob Rauschenberg Gallery: The Bob Rauschenberg Gallery was founded as The Gallery of Fine Art in 1979 on the Lee County campus of Florida SouthWestern State College/FSW (then Edison Community College). On June 4, 2004 the Gallery of Fine Art was renamed the Bob Rauschenberg Gallery, to honor and commemorate our long time association and friendship with the artist. Over more than three decades until his death, the Gallery worked closely with Rauschenberg to present world premiere exhibitions including multiple installations of the ¼ Mile or Two Furlong Piece. The artist insisted on naming the space the Bob Rauschenberg Gallery (versus the “Robert Rauschenberg Gallery”) as it was consistent with the intimate, informal relationship he maintained with both our local Southwest Florida community and FSW.
