Global Citizenship Program (GCP) 67 | Pathways to Global Citizenship: Roots and Routes
City University of New York (CUNY), Salzburg, Austria (April 4 to 11, 2015)
__
Tomorrow's leaders must think and act as global citizens in order to address the challenges facing humanity. Broadly defined, global citizens are people who are consciously prepared to live and work in the complex interdependent society of the 21st century and contribute to improving the common global welfare of our planet and its inhabitants. The program aims to engage participating students as global citizens, helping them develop the knowledge, skills, values, and commitment to:
Understand the nature of globalization, including its positive and negative impacts around the world, and realize how it is transforming human society;
Appreciate the diversity of humanity in all of its manifestations, from local to global, and interact with different groups of people to address common concerns;
Recognize the critical global challenges that are compromising humanity's future and see how their complexity and interconnections make solutions increasingly difficult; and
Collaborate with different sets of stakeholders, by thinking globally and acting locally, to resolve these critical challenges and build a more equitable and sustainable world.
The session format includes lectures and discussions with an international faculty as well as formal and informal work in small groups. Topics addressed in plenary lectures and discussions include globalization and global responsibility; the social, economic, and political aspects of migration; the historical legacy of the Holocaust, human rights, humanitarian intervention; sustainable development; and the implications of the United States' influence around the world.
Participants will consider how these issues relate to their current situations and future personal, educational, and professional plans. They will also have the opportunity to develop projects and activities related to the session topic that can be implemented at their colleges and universities, in their local communities, and beyond.

A special Constitution Day program held Sept. 17, 2015, featuring attorney Evan Wolfson, who often is credited with being the founder and leader of the same-sex marriage movement. Wolfson, along with Pitt Law Professor Anthony Infanti. The discussion centered around the U.S. Supreme Court’s recent landmark decision in Obergefell v. Hodges; the history of the effort to attain marriage equality for members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender community; and what legal and social challenges lie ahead for the community. PA Representative Dan B. Frankel who represents the 23rd District, also spoke with the panel and answered audience questions.

Today we created two more games in Programming C! We created a target game with moving obstacles and a drawing game where we could change colors and the size of our pencil.
Taken with my new macro rig! FD 50mm 1.8 mounted on FD to EF adapter. Without the correcting lens. The focus range went from 0.3m-infinity to 0.15-0.3m approximately! At 1.8 you can see some color fringing, but step it down to 2.8 and it's gone.

Sea-Perch is an innovative underwater robotics program that equips teachers and students with the resources they need to build an underwater Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV). The Sea-Perch Program provides students with hands on learning about robotics, science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) while building an underwater ROV as part of NJROTC teams. Throughout the project, students will learn engineering concepts, problem solving, teamwork, and technical applications. They also get interviewed by a panel of judges with questions on STEM (Careers, Statistics, National needs) while presenting their Engineering notebooks.
The Cadets all participated in building, testing and overcoming mistakes and failures before it was ready to drive. During the practical phase they take the ROV to the CFBISD Natatorium to practice on an obstacle course they also built. Once everyone had time piloting the ROV, they conducted a drivers try-out to identify the best pilots to lead their teams in the up-coming regional competition.
Last week they participated in the Dallas regional competition with over 90 schools taking part. Schools from as far as El Paso and Houston were in attendance. The competitions consisted of 3 phases. First, the Engineering Notebook (ENB) which cadets used to explain their design process to include: sketches, photos, graphs and explanations using engineering terminology. The ENB also has to have a professional appearance. All the cadets had to contribute and explain their role in the Engineering Notebook. Next, was the two obstacle courses. First was a timed event where they piloted the ROV through six hoops, breech the surface and return in reverse order to the starting point. The next course was the Finesse, it required the ROV to pick up rings and cubes and place them on hooks within the allotted time. Of the 90 Schools in attendance only the top 7 would advance to Atlanta for the National Competition. R L Turner NJROTC came in first place in the Finesse course however we placed 9th overall. This was the 3rd year RLT NJROTC has competed in Sea Perch advancing farther each year. The future looks bright and the Cadets are extremely excited and motivated to make it to Nationals next year.
