These pages are specifically for individuals coordinating the 2009 Spectrum Leadership Institute. Please do not edit unless you are listed as a coordinator below. If you have interest in planning future Institutes, contact the Office for Diversity and Spectrum at 800-545-2433 ext. 5048 or email email@example.com.
Note to Coordinators
To update information on this wiki please complete this multi-step process for every update you do:
- Find the session you need to update on this page below, click edit to add or edit information on this session.
- Within the information on a session, the speaker's status should be noted in bold prior to an individual speaker's name. The status of a speaker should be noted as one of the following: recommended - individuals the committee has identified as speakers but who have yet to be invited; invited on DATE - individuals who have received a formal invitation to present; confirmed - individuals who have accepted the invitation to present; declined - individuals who have declined the invitation to speak (note we do not delete these but archive them so we know who has already been suggested and cannot participate); or tentative - individuals who we have yet to receive a formal confirmation from but who have indicated they might be able to present.
- Use the schedule and sample correspondences on the Standard Speaker Communication Documents page to formally invite, confirm, gather information, and remind speakers. Follow-up by phone if you have not heard back within 10 business days. We hope to have all speakers confirmed by the second week of April.
- After a speaker has accepted the invitation, change the "status" on this speaker to Confirmed.
- Once a speaker is confirmed, add the speaker's information to the Program in Progress, located on the 2009 Sessions and Speakers page. Be sure to spell their name correctly, include their full title, and if possible create the link to their bio page. Note if a speaker has already participated in a previous Institute, linking their name will automatically link to the bio from the previous year. Be sure to edit and update their bio. The 2009 Sessions and Speakers page and all linked speaker bios are pulled directly from this wiki and used to create the printed program book. Please be conscientious with typing, spelling and providing accurate information.
Any standard speaker communications you may need can be found on the Standard Speaker Communication Documents page. Please note these documents need editing before you send them to the speaker.
Room information is not available just yet but all speakers will receive a final confirmation from Gwendolyn (POF committee will notify those participants) when the room assignments are finalized. All Spectrum Institute events will take place at an ALA Conference Hotel. Information on which hotel will be available in Spring 2009.

Maryland Hospital Caught Dumping Patient Out In Cold Wearing Hospital Gown
A Maryland Hospital is under fire after security guards were caught on video wheeling a woman, wearing only a hospital gown and socks, out into the cold, and dumping her and her belongings at a bus stop before returning inside. Imamu Baraka, who was standing nearby started recorded the unbelievable incident and uploaded it to Facebook.
Baraka confronted the security guards as they returned to the hospital before returning to check on the woman.
So, y'all are just gonna leave this lady out here with no clothes on? That is not okay.
He attempted to help the woman, who only grunted in apparent pain as he tried to get her to take a seat. The woman struggled to walk, and was uneasy about sitting down on the cold bench wearing only a thin hospital gown as cover.
An ambulance eventually arrived, and took the woman back to the same hospital that had discharged her and left her half naked on the street.
The hospital issued a statement saying they "are taking this matter very seriously, conducting a thorough review, and are evaluating the appropriate response, including the possibility of personnel action."
The following day, Mohan Suntha, the CEO of University of Maryland Medical Center's midtown campus, apologized for the incident and admitted their failure:
Where we absolutely failed, and where we own that failure, is in the demonstration of basic humanity and compassion as the patient was being discharged from our organization after receiving that care
He could not comment on why the woman was being treated, or what specifically caused her to be discharged in such a disturbing manner. He did point out that it had nothing to do with insurance or her ability to pay.
The hospital was also unable to comment on what happened to the woman after she was brought back by the ambulance because of patient privacy laws.

After announcing yesterday that we've acquired 3 Ohio clinics, we're thrilled to double our footprint and help more patients in Ohio. The Dayton Business Journal featured the news yesterday:
U.S. HealthWorks acquires three medical centers
February 7, 2011
U.S. HealthWorks, an operator of occupational health care centers nationwide, has acquired three Kettering Workers' Care medical centers in the Dayton area.
The acquisition of the centers doubles the number of U.S. HealthWorks-operated medical centers in Ohio and increases its number of centers to 139 nationwide.
The newly acquired Dayton-area medical centers are in Moraine, Huber Heights and Franklin. The facilities offer occupational medicine services, including diagnosis and treatment for injury and illness, preventive services, pre-employment and post-offer exams and screening, and return-to-work rehabilitative care.

FRUITLAND TOWNSHIP, Mich. (AP) -- A fire has caused millions of dollars in damage to the historic but newly renovated Michillinda Lodge on western Michigan's Lake Michigan shoreline.
Authorities got word of the fire about 4:30 a.m. Sunday. The century-old 44-room lodge is in Muskegon County's Fruitland Township, about 35 miles west-northwest of Grand Rapids.
Norton Shores Fire Chief Robert Gagnon says five people were staying in the lodge when the fire broke out, and all escaped without injury.
Management spokesman John Harrington says the fire destroyed 18 guest rooms, a restaurant and outdoor deck.
The Michillinda Lodge's website says that families from Grand Rapids, Illinois and Indiana "built simple, comfortable, two-story cottages" on the shore and "in 1902 named their property MICH-ILL-INDA, using a syllable from the names of each of the home states."

BRANDON — Otter Valley Union High School just said "no" to bullying.
A controversial smartphone application used by students to bully others that was taken down in Rutland High School last December appeared at OV last week and met the same fate.
OV Principal Jim Avery said on Saturday that the presence of the After School app was brought to his attention on Monday, June 1, when two students met him that morning and told him about it. By Thursday, the entire school had mobilized against the app, its users and their bullying tactics.

ADDISON AND RUTLAND COUNTIES — As the Vermont Senate Education Committee continues its work on an education funding reform bill this week, small schools are once again under scrutiny as lawmakers consider the proposition that school and district consolidation equals cost savings.
Now, a new report names specific small schools in Addison and Rutland counties as examples of what's wrong with Vermont's school districting system.
BRANDON — The No. 4 Otter Valley Union High School boys' basketball team shut down visiting No. 13 Harwood on Tuesday, 45-27, in a Division II first round playoff game.
The 15-6 Otters will host No. 5 Vergennes on Saturday at 2 p.m., with the winner earning a date in a Monday night semifinal in Barre, probably against undefeated No. 1 Woodstock, which will host No. 8 Mill River in a Friday quarterfinal.
BRANDON — Statewide education funding reform can't come soon enough for Otter Valley Union High School. Despite the fact that the OV board approved a proposed budget this month with a modest 1.83 percent spending increase, the union Homestead tax rate will increase by roughly 7 cents, or 4.6 percent.
The board on Jan. 7 approved a $10,718,131 spending plan for the 2015-2016 fiscal year, a $192,414 increase over the current spending plan.
Now the high school football season is over. Otter Valley was the Div. III State Championship runner-up. While it was hard for the players to lose the championship game, they all should be proud of the year they had.
ADDISON COUNTY — The four local union high school boys' soccer teams didn't really make their mark this fall, with only Vergennes winning a postseason contest.
But each squad played a number of competitive contests, especially Coach Kevin Hayes' 5-8-3 Commodores, who lost seven times by one goal, twice to Division II champion Rice.
BRANDON/FAIRFAX — In Division III high school football semifinals on Saturday, No. 1 Otter Valley won, but No. 6 Mount Abraham came up short in its attempt at a second straight playoff upset.
The Otters ousted visiting No. 4 Windsor, 43-14, while host No. 2 BFA-Fairfax blanked the Eagles, 14-0.
BRANDON — The Otter Valley Union High School football team on Saturday took another step toward its best season since winning the Division IV title in 2005, thumping visiting D-III rival Poultney, 48-20, to improve to 4-1.
BRANDON — Otter Valley Union High School will be hosting its 32nd annual raft race along Otter Creek, a longstanding tradition in the school community, on Oct. 5. This year, the school is opening up the race to community members and alumni in an effort to continue forging the strong bond that is held between our school and the surrounding communities.
