Southeastern's New Media and Animation program cited as one of best in the South
The New Media and Animation program at Southeastern has been recognized by Animation
Career Review as one of the top programs in the South.
Initiated only a few years ago in the university's Department of Fine and Performing
Arts, the program was ranked 20th by the web site.
According to ACR's post, the program "encourages students to leverage media and
materials outside of their comfort zone, while still taking coursework in 2D and 3D
animation, digital video and computer art technologies. Recent graduates exhibit a
balanced approach indicative of the program's objectives."
ACR formulates its rankings by considering academic reputation, feedback from
industry firms on which programs they value, the depth and breadth of the program,
and geographic proximity to the industry's leading firms. The full review of the top
programs in the South can be found at www.animationcareerreview.com.
"This extraordinary recognition of Southeastern's New Media and Animation concentration
is most deserved," said Ken Boulton, interim head of the Department of Fine and Performing
Arts. "The faculty and students associated with this program represent some of the
most inventive and imaginative individuals in our department."
Nearly 75 students are majoring in the program.
Associate Professor John Valentino said the computer studios and other equipment
available for student use are among the best, providing students with valuable experience
that easily translates into workforce skills. The program, he said, combines artistic
talent with technical proficiency.
"With Louisiana's tax incentives attracting movie production and digital media
companies to the state, there are increasing employment opportunities for our students
and graduates," said Valentino, who with Assistant Professor Cristina Molina teaches
most of the courses in the concentration. "As the film industry grows in this region,
they need talented and technically trained artists to meet production needs."
He said the university is working to enhance its relationship with area digital
media and film post-production companies to provide students with internships and
other practical experiences that open the doors to career opportunities.

Let's Talk: Art at Hammond Regional Arts Center 
As American expatriates in Paris, the writer Gertrude Stein, her brothers Leo and
Michael, and Michael's wife Sarah all collected works by emerging and established
painters such as Matisse, Picasso, Cezanne and Renoir. Eric Johnson, director of Sims
Library, will relate the fascinating story of the Steins' years in France, discussing
their loves, their rivalries and the way in which their collecting and promotion of
contemporary artists created a new standard of taste for modern art.
The lecture will be held at the Hammond Regional Arts Center (HRAC), across from
the Columbia Theatre in downtown Hammond, on Wednesday, Nov. 14, at 5 p.m. The Let's
Talk:Art series is co-sponsored by Southeastern's Department of Fine and Performing
Arts, the Friends of Sims Library and the Hammond Regional Art Center.
Forthcoming lectures will be held at both the HRAC and at Sims Library. For more
information, contact Eric Johnson at 549-3962.

piano."
The Jazz Combos will open the concert with three pieces: "Out of Nowhere" by
Edward Heyman and Johnny Green, "Strollin'" by Horace Silver, and "A Fool for Johnny"
by Carter MacFarland, a Jazz Combos student.
The second half of the concert will include "Softly, as in a Morning Sunrise"

Southeastern Channel nominated for two Emmys
Southeastern's educational access television has been nominated for two regional Emmy
Awards.
Promotional spots for Southeastern Channel-produced "Strength, Endurance, Tradition"
image campaign were nominated in both the "Commercial" and "Director-Post Production"
categories. Channel operations manager Steve Zaffuto produced, directed, videotaped
and edited the commercials.
The National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences made the nominations from
entries submitted by television stations and production companies in the Suncoast
Region, which includes Louisiana, Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi and Puerto
Rico. The winners will be announced Dec. 1 in Miami.
The Academy nominates those productions achieving excellence in television at
the highest level. Nominees and winners are selected after rounds of judging against
the Emmy standard of excellence, not against other productions.
The Southeastern Channel has won seven Emmys and received 31 Emmy nominations
for both professional and student productions in its 10-year history and is the only
college television station in Louisiana to have won the award.
"The Emmy is the top award that you can win in television; it's so difficult
to get nominated that receiving a nomination is recognition that you're producing
at the highest level of quality in the industry," said Rick Settoon, general manager
of the Southeastern Channel. "Steve is a wonderfully talented and creative professional
with a great work ethic, and his work on these university spots is very deserving
of this top recognition."
The spots promote Southeastern academic areas such as physics, education, communications,
nursing, digital arts and theater.
"The promos highlight student-faculty interaction and research projects, and
they describe the richness of academic programs at Southeastern," Settoon said.
Elements of the commercials include faculty and student interviews, along with
footage used in the recruiting video "Strength, Endurance, Tradition" produced by
Settoon and Zaffuto.
"Some spots, such as the one promoting the nursing program, utilize footage from
actual hands-on classroom situations," Zaffuto said. "When promoting artistic achievements,
I thought it important to show material actually produced by the students themselves.
The spot highlighting graphic design and animation and instruction includes clips
from actual student projects, while another features portions of a monologue from
the student-authored play, 'Parking Lot Babies.'"
The Southeastern Channel has won more than 150 national and international awards
in the last ten years. It's been named "Best College Television Station in the South,"
and its student programs have been selected as among the top three in the nation.
The channel can be seen on Charter Cable Channel 18 in Tangipahoa, St. Tammany
and Livingston parishes and on Channel 17 in Washington Parish. It can also be viewed
online at www.southeastern.edu/tv with monthly viewers from 46 states and 47 countries.

Swabbin' 4 Robin registers nearly 100 at football game
The Swabbin' 4 Robin Campaign held its most successful event yet at the Lions' football
game Saturday night. Teams of student volunteers from the Sigma Alpha Pi National
Society for Leadership and Success and the Lady Lions women's basketball team staffed
booths at Strawberry Stadium before and during the game, registering 97 people for
Be the Match, the national registry of potential bone marrow donors. The Swabbin'
campaign has now registered a total of 177 people in the database through several
events this semester.
Swabbin' 4 Robin is a campus-wide, student-led initiative to increase awareness
of bone marrow transplant needs and register prospective donors for the national donor
database. This effort, which will continue through the spring semester, is in honor
of Southeastern alumna and Good Morning America host Robin Roberts, who is currently recovering from a bone marrow transplant procedure.
The Human Resources Office and the Comprehensive Public Training Program (CPTP) are offering the following classes at no charge to state employees during the Fall 2012 semester.
Unless otherwise noted, the programs are from 8:15 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. and will be held in the University Center, room 139.
Strategies for Supervisory Success (Nov. 15)
This class is designed to help participants develop strategies to effectively assume
their supervisory roles within their agencies. Learning objectives include managing
transition to a supervisory role, building personal credibility, developing work group
commitment, and implementing action planning within the agency. This class is open
to all supervisors.
Delegating Effectively (Dec. 5, 8:15 – 11:30 a.m.)
This half-day class is designed to help participants learn to improve their ability
to delegate. There is more to effective delegation than mastering a set of skills
and techniques. You must challenge your beliefs and your abilities, as well as those
of your staff. In addition, you must demonstrate confidence in your staff's ability
to achieve success in the tasks you delegate to them. This class will help you identify
tools you can implement in the workplace to ensure you are delegating successfully.
This class is open to all supervisors and managers.
Addressing Emotions at Work (Dec. 5, 12:30 – 3:30 p.m.)
This 1/2-day class is designed to provide participants with strategies to address
strong emotions, and when appropriate, the emotions of people with whom you work.
Learning objectives include identifying the impact of emotions on productivity; being
aware of factors that cause emotions to intensify so they can be managed more effectively;
applying techniques to address your own strong emotions so you can focus on getting
work done; and responding objectively and constructively to the strong emotions of
others. This class is open to all employees.
Pre-registration is required for all of the above courses by emailing Jan Ortego at Jan.Ortego@southeastern.edu or by calling 549-5771.
Southeastern to hold dance auditions for spring concert
Southeastern's dance program is holding auditions Tuesday, Nov. 13, and Wednesday,
Nov. 14, for an upcoming dance concert to be directed by Southeastern alumnus Skip
Costa.
Sponsored by the Department of Fine and Performing Arts, the concert will be
held in the spring.
Auditions are scheduled from 6 to 7:30 p.m. in the dance studio located in the
Kinesiology and Health Studies Building. Dance Professor Martie Fellom said the auditions
are open to Southeastern students, who can earn a one-hour credit for rehearsals and
performance. Auditions are also open to high school students.
"Auditioning students only need to come to one audition. The audition will be
modern/contemporary," Fellom said. "Students should wear something that shows their
form, especially on the upper body torso."
Costa, who will begin teaching dance at Southeastern in the spring semester,
said students interested in choreographing for the concert should attend an audition
as well, and students can bring in some of their own movements as a way of introducing
themselves.
"I am extremely excited to be back at my alma mater teaching dance," Costa said.
"I have over 10 years of professional experience in New York City alone, as well as
a vast resource of tools and professional connections to pass along to these students
to help them get their best foot forward as they seek an exciting career in dance.
"I always love teaching at the university level because it is such a non-judgmental
and supportive place to grow, both as a dancer and a human being," he added.
For more information contact Fellom at mfellom@southeastern.edu or 549-2133.
Above: Southeastern alumnus Skip Costa is holding dance auditions on Nov. 13 and 14 at 6 p.m. in the Kinesiology and Health Studies Building dance studio. Auditions are open to Southeastern students, as well as high school students. The concert will be held during the spring semester.
Program held for Career Paths in the Physical Sciences
The Chemistry and Physics Department with the support of the Student Government Association
hosted Career Paths in the Physical Sciences (CaPPS) on Friday, Nov. 2. The program
consisted of three panel discussions to educate students about career opportunities
in chemistry, physics and engineering.
The industrial/government panel was diverse with panelists from the USDA, Northrup
Grumman, Shell, V-LABS, and DSC Dredge. A panel representing academia included chemists
and physicists from Tulane, University of Alabama, and Louisiana State University.
A final panel of graduate students included chemistry and physics graduate students
from Tulane and LSU.
The panels allowed for informal question and answer sessions between Southeastern
students and the panelists. After the panel discussions, Southeastern chemistry and
physics students gave campus and departmental tours to visiting high school students
and freshman chemistry and physics majors and ended the program with a chemistry/physics
demonstration.

Judo is "By wisely utilizing the opponent's power, a smaller person can defeat a larger
person." The instructor is a third-degree black belt Judoist, with over 40 years of
experience, and a professor of physics. He is originally from Tokyo, Japan, and his
