About Our People
Andrea Alexander (Nursing) presented a poster, “Trauma-Informed Mental Health Education: Guidelines for Practice,†at the American Psychiatric Nurse Association annual conference in October. Trauma-informed teaching strategies have been well-researched for elementary and secondary settings, but is a newer concept in higher education. Recognizing the increased challenges for nursing students who have survived trauma, this poster supplied practical recommendations for nursing faculty.
Ed Higgins (English Emeritus, Writer in Residence) published his poem “Monster Movie Essentials” in the fall 2020 print edition of The Poeming Pigeon. In addition, the online poetry magazine Pure Haiku features his haiku “luminous Basho†in its Oct. 29 post.
