Welcome to the college and counseling information home page. The links to the left contain helpful general information for Venture students and parent. Lucy Daggett, Venture's Guidance Counselor, is available to assist with more specific concerns and questions. Please contact her at 925-479-1215 or at firstname.lastname@example.com.
When registering for SAT and ACT testing – or when completing the Common Application for College Admissions, Venture students will need the school's CEEB code. Venture's CEEB Code is 053224
All Venture students have a Naviance/Family Connections account which should be activated during the first month of attendance at Venture. Students enrolling from another school in the San Ramon Valley Unified School District retain their Username and Password; however, they must log into the website through Venture. (A QuickLink may be found on the Venture home page.) Students new to the district may see the Venture counselor for registration.
The Venture School Profile below may help to answer some initial questions about our program. It is also useful for students applying to college through the Common Application process and may be found as a Quicklink on the Venture School homepage.
Founded in 1978 by the San Ramon Valley Unified School District as a public alternative school serving grades K-12, Venture School is accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC). Our most recent accreditation visit was in 2011; Venture received a six year term (through 2017) with a three year review. At the end of the 2012-13 school year, Venture had 392 students enrolled. More than 90% were high school students, 126 of whom were in the graduating class.
Venture is located in the city of San Ramon, California, a suburban community located approximately 35 miles east of San Francisco. Most of its residents are employed in professional and service jobs. The school reflects the ethnic makeup of the surrounding communities: 65% Caucasian, 6% African-American, 18% Hispanic, 7% Asian, 4% other.
Because of its long-standing reputation and unique program in the Bay Area, Venture attracts students from our four comprehensive district high schools and from schools throughout Contra Costa County and contiguous counties. Our current enrollment includes students from more than a dozen neighboring school districts. The school year follows a traditional two-semester calendar beginning in August and ending in June.
The Venture faculty is comprised of 15 fully certificated teachers, of whom 11 are full time. In addition, Venture has a full time principal and a full time guidance counselor along with three support staff members.
Academic Program
Venture's college prep curriculum meets UC and CSU requirements and mirrors the course of study offered at the district's four outstanding comprehensive high schools. Many of our students concurrently enroll at their home high schools and community colleges to take advantage of courses not offered at Venture, including laboratory science, world language, advanced mathematics, and fine arts. Venture does not offer AP or Honors courses, but some of our students do take these courses at other district high schools.
Venture's independent study program provides students with the opportunity to personalize their instruction and the freedom to pursue opportunities that enrich and expand their educational experience. Students work with a primary teacher who creates and oversees a program of study to match their skills, talents, and aspirations. In this process, Venture students master academic skills while developing the independence, the initiative, and the time management and organizational capabilities necessary for future success.
Students typically enroll in six classes per semester and must earn 240 credits to graduate (five credits per semester for courses complete with a grade of "D" or better.) Credits must include: four years of English, two years of mathematics, one year of physical science, one year of life science, three and a half years of social science, two years of physical education, one semester of health, and two years of world language, visual & performing arts, and/or technology & applied arts.
Grade Point Averages are computed on a traditional 4.0 scale. However, a Venture transcript may reflect weighted grades for some college courses as well as AP and Honors classes taken at other schools. In alignment with district policy, rank in class is not computed.
In 1998, Venture was the first school in California to receive the Governor's Quality Award, which was based upon the Federal Malcolm Baldridge Award recognizing organizations for achieving the highest level of excellence in their field. This honor was followed by the Prospector Award in 2002. Venture was also selected as an Independent Study Demonstration School by the National Alternative Education Association and as an "Outstanding Independent Study School" by the California Department of Education and California Consortium for Independent Study.
Since 2010, Venture graduates have included a gold medalist in the 51st International Mathematical Olympiad, the winner of the 2011 Intel Science Talent Search, and National Merit Scholarship finalist and semi-finalists. Because Venture provides education to student athletes who compete at the national level and to students employed as actors and models, other recent graduates are pursuing their professional careers in sports, in modeling and acting, and as dancers with the San Francisco and Joffrey Ballet companies.
Most members of the Venture Graduating Classes of 2011-2013
are currently attending college. These schools include: The Academy of Art – San Francisco; Arizona State University; Berklee College of Music; Brigham Young University; California College of the Arts; California Lutheran; California Maritime Academy; California State University East Bay; Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising; Fordham; Harvard University; London School of Fashion; Mills College; Oklahoma State University; Pacific Union College; Northern Arizona University; Prescott College; Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute; Saint Marys College; Santa Clara; Sonoma State University; University of California Berkeley; University of California Santa Barbara; University of Colorado Boulder; University of the Pacific; Warren Wilson College; Westminster University. Other 2011 and 2012 graduates are currently attending one of more than a dozen community colleges and several career/technical institutes.

Luxeuil Abbey
One of the oldest and best-known monasteries in Burgundy, located in Haute-Saône in Franche-Comté, France. It was founded c.585-590 by Saint Columbanus and his fellow missionaries. The group first settled in cells at Annegray, Voivre, Haute-Saône, but seeking a more permanent site for his community, Columbanus decided upon the ruins of a well-fortified Gallo-Roman settlement, Luxovium, about eight miles away. The town had been ravaged by Attila in 451, and was buried in the dense overgrown woodland that had filled the abandoned site over more than a century, but still had the advantage of the thermal baths down in the valley, which still give the town its name of Luxeuil-les-Bains.
There were stone images in the nearby woods, and pagans who worshipped them. With a grant from an officer of the palace at Childebert's court, an abbey church was built in one of the heathen sites. The abbey was dedicated to Saint Peter the Apostle, and soon became the most important and flourishing monastery in Gaul. Most of the earliest rule at Luxeuil derived from Celtic monastic traditions, whether or not written down by Columbanus, supplemented increasingly by the more formalized Benedictine Rule that was followed throughout the West.

SES London presentation: Why content strategy is crucial for social search
By Rachel Hawkes
Yesterday, I went along to the third day of Search Engine Strategies (SES London) to present 'Why content strategy is crucial to social search.' My aim was to give a practical walk through what content strategy is, why as marketers (and brands) we need to understand how social media and content has a role to play in how our customers discover us through search. Reinforcing that, as the only panellist based in the UK, through case studies on this side of the pond.

A content strategy is crucial for social search
By Rachel Hawkes
On Wednesday, I'll be speaking at Search Engine Strategies in London about how a content strategy plays an important role in social search (and therefore the bigger search picture). Alongside two search marketers from America and Canada, my role on the panel will be very much geared along the communications route, focusing on how content strategy and social search fit into a wider marketing and PR plan.

Last week Twitter caused a bit of an international stir when it announced it could now block tweets on a per country basis. Yesterday, news that Google had in fact introduced the same thing three weeks earlier (on January 9th). Ironically, the day before Twitter announced its blocks, Reporters Without Borders released its index showing that Australia, the UK and the United States have less freedom of press this year than last.

Is Really Simple Syndication (RSS) still relevant?
By Tim Gibbon
Really Simple Syndication (RSS) has been with us for a number of years and although it maybe a little grey around the sideburns, its role hasn't changed. Although a lot of people still question the relevancy and necessity of RSS, it remains an essential element and make-up of the web, but why should we continue to make friends with it?

NEW WILMINGTON, Pa. - Westminster College welcomes Dr. Randa Abbas as a Visiting Scholar-in-Residence for the 2013 Fall Semester.
She will present her research, "We Cannot Move Forward Unless We Preserve Our Traditions: Women Principals as Leaders in Traditional Israeli Druze Society," at the Celebrate International Diversity Symposium at 7 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 26, in Witherspoon Rooms 334 and 335 at the McKelvey Campus Center (MCC). This is open and free to the public.
Abbas is currently a lecturer in the education department at Western Galilee College in Akko, Israel, and head of the education department at the Arab Academic College in Haifa, Israel. At Westminster Abbas will be teaching "Education and Psychology" with Tina Keller, lecturer of education; and "Psychology of Women" with Dr. Sherri Pataki, associate professor of psychology.
Westminster and Western Galilee faculty have been collaborating on research for five years and each institution has taken turns hosting the Bridges International Faculty Workshop, providing opportunities for both of the institutions' faculty members to engage in formal and informal discussions to enrich teaching and research.
"Dr. Randa Abbas and I met five years ago when I attended the first faculty workshop at Western Galilee College in Israel," Pataki said. "Since then, we have collaborated on several research projects involving Capstone students at Westminster as well as a long-distance dialogue between our students."
As part of their cross-cultural research on gender roles and women living in traditional societies, four Westminster psychology majors had the opportunity to travel to Israel and work with Dr. Abbas and her Israeli students, Pataki said.
Pataki continued, "This semester, many more Westminster students and our community will benefit directly from Westminster's partnership with Western Galilee College through Dr. Abbas' activities and presence on our campus."
Abbas will work on several current research projects while on campus. The first is focused on the relationship between parents and adolescents in traditional Israeli communities. The second is focused on the status of Druze women in Israel, and the third research project will investigate how public school children share information about their religion.
Abbas will also present at the Faires Faculty Forum at 11:45 a.m. Wednesday, Oct 2, in Mueller Theatre, located in the MCC. The event is free to the public. Attendees are welcome to bring a bagged lunch to enjoy during the presentation. They also have the option to purchase lunch from the TUB, located on the bottom floor of MCC.
Abbas earned her undergraduate degree from Western Galilee College. She earned her master's and Ph.D. from Bar-Ilan University, and was the first Druze woman to receive a Ph.D. degree from the university.
She has authored and co-authored numerous articles and has been published in Studies in Educational Administration and Evaluation, The International Journal of Religion and Spirituality in Society, and Daruna - The Academic Arab College of Education.
Her visit to Westminster is underwritten by the Thomases Family Endowment of the Youngstown Area Jewish Federation, Westminster's Department of Education and the Department of Psychology, and the Office of Academic Affairs.
For more information contact Pataki at 724-946-7361 or email, or contact Dr. Amy Camardese, associate professor of education and chair of the department, at 724-946-7183 or email.

The company best known for its Steam online gaming platform is the latest player to enter the virtual-reality market, with a system it plans to show off at next week's Game Developers Conference.
The new Steam Machines controller prototype is a step in the right direction, but its haptic touch pads still take a lot of getting used to.
Pricing not available
Valve unveiled its latest controller prototype for its Steam Machine line. This new one looks more like a traditional gamepad compared to previous iteration.
The latest Steam Machine controller prototype keeps the disc-based control, adds traditional face buttons.
Valve will face Australia's Federal Court over claims it misled customers about refunds and guarantees on Steam games.
Valve has revealed some hardware partners as well as a range of Steam Machine prototypes at CES 2014.
Consoles beware: with huge players like Alienware and Falcon Northwest onboard, the diverse and low-cost Steam Machines unveiled at CES 2014 put Valve in place to pull off its revolution.
Edyn has launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund their connected sensor and watering control. Here's a closer look at the system.
Citing a desire to "make the controller a lot better" Valve has said that its Steam Machine range of gaming PCs won't be available until 2015.
Few innovations under the hood have become as ubiquitous as variable valve timing. Automakers brag about it all the time, but seldom explain it. So Brian Cooley's here to do just that.

As economies emerge from the recession, businesses are once more looking to the future. Legislation and changing business models are forcing companies to change the way they manage their compliance and reporting, but at the same time technology and new ways of working offer the opportunity for processes to evolve, seeking to achieve best practice, cost-effectiveness and operational savings. It is time to Rethink Compliance.
The journey to evolve a tax function is one of incremental steps, with each company taking its own route and its own pace. On this site, we focus on some areas which we believe are driving the change and how your business can benefit.
Tax provisioning solutions
Year end can be a painful, tedious, and time consuming process for many. Find out what viable tax provisioning options you have for a new beginning and download our guide to tax accounting.
Building the tax department of the future
Today's tax executives need to function as strategists, catalysts, operators and stewards, Tax departments of the future need to be strategic, agile and above all add value to the organization.
Compliance outsourcing
Today's imperatives to manage risk and reduce cost remain constant. The trends moving businesses towards shared service centers are also making outsourcing an increasingly attractive option for many companies
Moving with the times
With increasing globalization, pressure on costs and greater emphasis on risk management, tax directors and their departments are transforming the way they work.
Data do nicely
Evolving technology leads to better numbers, better claims and better results.
The world beckons
Globalization can offer both opportunities and threats for the tax function.
Facing the future
Tax directors face changing times and are moving towards a more versatile future
Risk rewards
Reputational and financial damage follow the failure to manage tax risk, while fewer investigations and an optimized effective tax rate are the upsides.
The value of global compliance
For many years, internal tax and finance functions have been working towards increasing efficiencies in how they prepare their global corporate tax and other statutory returns.

Rated 2 out of 5 by NaviG Cute, but leather likely to peel..
Very attractive bag; looks exactly as pictured. Size is perfect --not too large, certainly not too small. The sole reason for me returning this beauty actually happens to be its major selling point: the leather. Since it is laser-cut to emulate the scaling of authentic snakeskin, it definitely will start peeling on the inside (the side that brushes against your body as you wear it). I fiddled around with it for a bit and noticed that even brand new (just out of the package), it appeared to be peeling already. Other snakeskin bags I've owned in the past have had this same issue although I was hoping this one would be different. If it was on sale, I'd definitely keep it. But paying full price for something that's likely to weather all too soon just seems illogical for me. Sad because it really is a beautiful bag.

My View: Leaders in police talks must lead
Date: June 21, 2012
by: Richard Dorfman | Contributing columnist
"Leadership is about causing two divergent points of view to realize there is value in meeting in the middle."
I wrote that after I read that the latest city offer to the Sarasota Police Benevolent Association was unanimously rejected. The negotiations have been ongoing for about two years, and based on the last session, they are probably no further along than when they commenced.
I have no idea how these negotiations have been carried out, what is or isn't sacrosanct or what moving parts may be negotiable. One thing is sure, though: There is an increasing recognition that Sarasota cannot continue to offer the generous benefits that police officers enjoy without them eventually bankrupting the city. Some may even say that time is closer than we think.
It is difficult not to stand up for cops and teachers in the court of public opinion. But that court is quickly losing its hold on the public psyche.
In San Diego and San Jose, Calif., voters passed initiatives that required public-pension employees to contribute more to their plans and steered new employees into 401(k)-style retirement programs.
Most recently in Wisconsin, Gov. Scott Walker modified the collective bargaining agreements for public-employee unions, a grossly unpopular move for many. But the majority realized his leadership was necessary, and he survived an unprecedented recall vote. The majority recognized that the obligation to the unions was just too rich. The public's perception was that they had, in fact, begun to work for their public employees rather than the other way around.
In Sarasota, pensions account for about 6% of the annual budget, with this figure expected to balloon to more than 14% by 2014. Our city's unfunded pension obligation is estimated to be between $272 million to $402 million, depending on which investment-return estimates you utilize.
In many cities countrywide, long-term planning is in limbo because no one can predict what the pension and investment funds' returns will be or how long pensioned employees and their survivors may live.
Now that the public realizes its way of life is being adversely affected by the those who are meant to serve their interests, then trust is broken.
This brings me back to leadership. We have two divergent points of view involved in the current negotiations between the city and the PBA. This is not surprising. In most negotiations, one side wants to extract the most while the other wants to sacrifice the least.
But this is different. This is about people's lives — on all sides. We need our police to protect and maintain our society. Likewise, the police want to ensure their own lives and those of their families. Hence it is now down to the leaders on either side of the negotiating table.
There are things the city can no longer do. There are also points that are likely sacrosanct to the PBA. The job of the respective leaders is to identify the realities and cause their constituencies to realize this is as good as it's going to get, or there will be no "get" to be had.
There cannot be heroes in these negotiations, only survivors. The time to get it done is now. With a new city manager to be hired next month and our chief of police retiring in the fall, the city has important issues to deal with over a compressed period. It is time to assess the realities both sides are dealing with and make the best deal we can — for everyone.
Richard Dorfman is a Sarasota resident. He has filed to run for the City Commission.
Currently 1 Response
- 1.
- Crush the public employee unions. They serve only to enrich themselves not to serve the public. It's my understanding that the school teachers have received cost of living raises during the entire duration of the great recession when so many lost their jobs. If so, shame on the politicians who negotiated the overly generous contracts. Privatize all city services.

The evolving seriousness of Terrasses eventually left room for a new wine, as Alvaro had never wanted to be known solely for expensive "trophy"" wines, and with Camins, he found the opportunity to create something special. Drawing on his wealth of vineyard sources, Alvaro is aiming to produce a wine that is affordably priced, but which also stays true to his vision of Priorat - powerful but elegant, approachable but restrained.
Blend: 30% Garnacha, 60% Cariñena, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah
At present, the Gil Vera family, Juan Gil Lencina's great-grandchildren, are the owners of Bodegas Juan Gil. They decided to start a new cellar on the property that the family owns in Jumilla, in order to get it adapted to the market. This new cellar is situated in "Término de Arriba" in the northwest of the city. It is so called because it is the highest point in Jumilla. It has been a winegrowing area for centuries and yields grapes of extraordinary quality.
We recommend this wine by itself as an aperitif or paired with a summer dish such as Thai smoked salmon, or grilled asparagus served with a sauce maltaise (a hollandaise made with blanched orange zest and blood orange).
The Tilia wines are made at Bodegas Esmeralda, a Catena family winery in the Eastern region of Mendoza that is dedicated to making value wines for the Argentine domestic market. Tilia wines offer a unique combination of fruit sourced from the traditional Eastern region and the dynamic Southern region of Mendoza. The Eastern region of Mendoza enjoys warm, sunny days and cool desert nights. The grapes have very ripe, rich fruit flavors and excellent mid-palate depth and concentration. Bright sunshine and low temperatures of the Southern region lend a cool freshness. The fruit from this area shows clean acid balance and soft, supple tannins.
Tilia is dedicated to responsible use of the environment. The winemaking and viticultural team actively engage in many practices and programs throughout the community to implement sustainability. Water conservation and reuse, minimal use of pesticides and organic fertilization are several examples of the team's dedication. Furthermore, the entire Tilia viticultural team attends regular sustainability training sessions at the National University of Cuyo and National Agricultural Research Institute. They take this training into the field to share and implement with their grower partners.
The color is pale straw with golden highlights. The nose finds fresh pear and honeydew melon with flavors of mandarin orange, lemon, kiwi, pear and spice. A round entry on the palate with nice balance between acidity and residual sugar. A clean, refreshing finish.
ONEHOPE donates 50% of the profits from sales of its Sauvignon Blanc to benefit the American Forest Foundation. For every dollar that is donated, American Forest will plant a tree. The American Forest Foundation (AFF) encourages the long-term sustainability of America's forests, restoring wildlife habitat, and developing quality environmental education programs, to assure that Americans today, and in the future, enjoy healthy, growing forests.
ONEHOPE has become the socially conscious wine of choice at several hundred premier events including the Grammy's, The American Red Cross Gala, the BAFTA's, Sundance Film Festival and VH1 Save the Music.
The tireless efforts over the past three years from the dedicated ONEHOPE team have ensured that the brand is a familiar and respected concept in most households and businesses. This commitment and dedication to "making a difference" is what has spearheaded the astonishing company to great heights in such a short time. The hard-working and dynamic team strives without limits to create a global brand that promises to make a better future for all.
Placido Pinot Grigio is a delightful aperitif, and is perfect for a range of foods including appetizers, seafood, and grilled poultry and pork.
Consisting of eight noble wine types, their wines include: Sangiovese, Trebbiano, Montepulciano D'Abruzzo, Chianti and a fruity Pinot Grigio all from grapes grown in choice Tuscany vineyards. Chile's Maipo Valley offers an ideal micro-climate for cultivating the noblest of French stock, such as Placido's Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Chardonnay.

Bulls stun Heat with Game 1 win at Miami
Published on -5/7/2013, 10:20 AM
Printer-friendly version
E-Mail This Story
MIAMI (AP) -- Only one team has held the Miami Heat below 90 points on their home floor this season. That would be the Chicago Bulls, and for good measure, they've now done it twice.
So by now, it's obvious: If there's a team in the NBA that has Miami's number, it has to be the Bulls.
Nate Robinson scored 27 points and dominated in the final minutes -- after needing 10 stitches to sew up his lip -- while Jimmy Butler added 21 points and a career high-tying 14 rebounds as the Bulls pulled off a stunner by beating Miami 93-86 Monday night in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference semifinal series.
Actually, maybe it's not that much of a stunner anymore. Since LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh all ignored overtures from the Bulls and decided to team up in Miami three years ago, Chicago has a 9-8 record against the Heat.
"I've played on some tough teams," Robinson said. "But this one, there's something a little different, something special about this group."
It's only one game, something plenty of Bulls players and coach Tom Thibodeau pointed out incessantly afterward. But even a 1-0 lead in a series typically leads to advancement, so for the Heat, adversity has arrived in a big way in a season where little has gone wrong.
"It's not going to be pretty but playoffs are ugly," said Bosh, who was held to nine points on 3-for-10 shooting. "That's what it's about. It's been a little bit too pretty around here, to be honest with you.
"We're in a situation where dudes are not going to be able to sleep and we're going to have to give it our all in Game 2 and figure everything out."
When it comes to facing Miami, the Bulls have plenty figured out.
They snapped Miami's 27-game winning streak in the regular season -- the second-longest in NBA history -- and now toppled the champs again, this time ending a run of 12 straight Heat victories overall. Miami has lost five games at home this season, two to the Bulls, who held them to 89 on Jan. 4.
James struggled through a two-point first half before finishing with 24 points, eight rebounds and seven assists. Wade added 14 for the Heat, who had no one else in double figures, shot 40 percent from the floor and were outrebounded 46-32.
"I'm not stunned," James said. "This is what the playoffs is all about. We're going against a really good team."
Spurs 129 Warriors 127 (2 OT)
SAN ANTONIO (AP) -- Manu Ginobili's 3-pointer from the wing with 1.2 seconds left in double overtime lifted the San Antonio Spurs to a thrilling 129-127 victory over the Golden State Warriors and Stephen Curry's 44 points in Game 1 of their Western Conference second round series Monday night.
The Spurs trailed by 16 points with 4 minutes left in regulation before going on an 18-2 run to close the fourth quarter and force overtime.
They trailed 127-126 with 3.9 seconds left in the second overtime before Ginobili hit his 3-pointer off a cross-court inbounds pass from Kawhi Leonard.
Golden State had one final chance but Jarrett Jack's 3-pointer from the top of the key was off.

In a previous life, the North Beach Malt House was home to several family-owned brewing companies. Today, the renovated building is the anchor of a four-building condo project that blends both old and new aesthetics.

Formerly a brewery, this structure was reused for a condo project. The brewery's roasting drums were converted into exterior light fixtures, while one of the two remaining grain silos is now part of a plume that carries water to a fountain.
The architects used steel and aluminum window openings in context with the vintage character of the original building.
The architects reused the second grain silo as a courtyard entry and used steel and aluminum window openings in context with the vintage character of the original building.
The program called for conversion of the malt house into condo units and the addition of three new, Modern-style buildings. To that end, MBH Architects left the interior concrete walls of the malt house exposed, preserving its industrial roots. And the firm speced painted steel and aluminum windows to unify the old building with the new ones. "The fenestration and the width of the bays drew off the old building," says Mark Blunck, marketing coordinator.
The courtyard also exalts the project's industrial pedigree: The architects pulled the entry back and incorporated two existing grain silos--with one functioning as a lobby/courtyard entry. And the exterior is lit by red column fixtures that were once part of the plant's roasting drums. Our judges praised the "creative adaptive reuse" and lauded the "clearly delineated old and new sections."

The most memorable injuries in sports history are the ones that occurred off the field. Lions receiver Nate Burleson joined that elite category this week when he broke his arm in a car crash that happened as he reached over to grab a pizza that was falling out of the passenger seat. No word on whether he made the catch, but certainly football is more his life calling than pizza delivery. Detroit's top target not named Calvin Johnson will be out until November. But where does his injury rank among the all-time greats sustained in an off-field incident? You be the judge. Plaxico Burress: The Giants wideout shot himself in the leg while at a nightclub. But it wasn't the injury that kept him off the field — it was the insult. Burress had to go to jail for illegally carrying the firearm. This story is hard to top, though technically the injury itself did not cost him any playing time.

NET $1500 FOR FAMINE RELIEF President Thomas and Mrs. Pankhurst Emphasize Urgency of Need MRS. PANKHURST CONDUCTS FIRST CLASS IN .PUBLIC 8PEAKING Will Give Six Lectures While On International Relations Work The first of Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst's six classes in public speaking, held Mon- day night in Taylor Hall,, revealed, accord- ing to Mrs. Pankhurst; an encouraging ability for sustained speaking in the stu- dents. , "Most important rules for public speak- ing," Mrs. Pankhurst said, "are having something to say, saying it with conviction, speaking audibly, and* always expressing oneself simply." When she had finished outlining the purpose and method of her course, fourteen students spoke extempo- raneously, and were criticized by her. A public meeting will take the place of the next class. Mrs. Pankhurst is to pre- side, while four principal speakers will dis- cuss "Immigration and Child Welfare." Questions and short criticisms will be made from the floor. This class is scheduled for Thursday, March 17, though all further classes come on Monday in each week. Mrs. Pankhurst is in this country pri- marily to combat Bolshevism by, speaking to schools, colleges, chambers of commerce and men and women's clubs. Her purpose, however, is also to promote good relation- ships between Great Britain and America. BLANKS FOR 8CH0LAR8HIP8 AND LOAN8 IN ALUMNAE OFFICE Professor Lucy Martin Donnelly, chair- man of the Scholarship and Loan Fund Committee, has announced that she will gladly see students wishing to consult her concerning undergraduate scholarships. Any student who would like to make special inquiry regarding these scholar- ships previous to formal application, or who might wish for an appointment with the chairman, can make such arrangements through the alumnae office, Taylor Hall. The application blanks are to be secured through the' office of the secretary and registrar. The Loan Fund is available for students wishing to supplement scholarships or for special assistance, and is granted without interest until after the student's college work is completed. W Oriental, ingenuity displayed itself in great variety for occidental amusement in the entertainment for the benefit of Chinese Famine Relief, given in the gymnasium last Saturday night by Chinese students study- ing at the University of Pennsylvania. Directing the entertainment was Mr. C. Chen, graduate of Yale University, and graduate stqdent at the University of Pennsylvania, while M. Foot, '21, president 6f the Undergraduate Association, acted as stage manager. "We want to show our American audi- ence what jve can do," said Mr. Chen^ in an interview with a Ne-^s reporter. "We are going to play our game in your way." ' The program accordingly included Amer- ican singing as well as Chinese operatic selections from classics over 1000 years old, an occidental interpretative dance to Chinese music played upon instruments in- vented more than 1500 years B. C, and two renderings of Chinese plays in Eng- lish. The acts' presented here were from- a longer- program given on February-11, at the Bellevue-Stratford Hotel, in Phila- delphia, where the proceeds amounted to $5000. Good Harmony Shown in Singing Vivacious action and poise, as well as good harmony, marked the singing of "Roll dem Bones," "Call John," and other hu- morous songs by Mr. K. Y. Ling, Dr. K. B. Young, Dr. Don G: Lew, and Mr. C. T. Yin, who sang "Serenade" with equal success. Quite in contrast to this music were the Chinese operatic classics, with their falsetto tones and uneven rhythm. Dr. Frederic Poole, Oriental traveler, for many years the head of a Chinese mis- sion in Philadelphia Chinatown and the only American on the program, illustrated upon a blackboard the -pictorial nature of Chinese writing. He showed how the char- acter for man and the character for field together", mean farmer; mouth and door combined stand for begging; man, mouth and rice field together mean happiness,-while the word for trickery and conspiracy is the character fdr woman written twice. Dr. Poole also gave a scene from the "Yel- low Jacket," in which Li Sin beheads the servant maid, Zo. During the twenty-four years which he spent in the Chinese Mis- sion in Philadelphia Chinatown, Dr. Poole was once shot in a feud (callefl the Tong War) between the Chinese merchants. Chinese Playlet a Feature "The Spanking of the City Gods," modern Chinese play now playing in Chiija, and entertainingly translated^nto colloquial American for this occasion, was the prin- cipal act on the program. The humor of the plot, in which three thieves, hiding from justice in the guise of gods upon an altar, are prayed to by the balked detectives, and finally discovered through an amusing acci- dent, was increased by the spirited acting of the performers. M'ss Marguerite Wong, as an afflicted maiden praying to the City Gods, invoked them thus: "Oh, won't you please help me!, My father and mother are fighting, and I am so nervous. Won't you please make them stop!" The white noses worn by all comic characters on the Chinese stage mighl^fce adopted to advan- tage by some comedians in America so that there would be no doubt as to whether they were comic or not, according to Dr. Poole. The. act performed by-Mr. S. T. Chow and Mr. C. J. Li, called 'Two in One," is, according to Mr. Chen, a very old Chinese trick. A most amusing effect was produced when Mr. Chow stood behind Mr. Li and spoke, while Mr. Li went through the motions of speaking. Little Harry, a young representative from China, who is, according to Mr. Chen, "No. 1 Boy" in Grade 2B of the school which he attends in Philadelphia, was one of the most popular performers of the evening. The words of his song, which was three times encored, were as follows: (Continued on Pact 2) NOTED REFORMER URGES FIGHT FOR EQUAL SOCIAL STANDARDS Mrs. Pankhurst Describes Part Played by Women in Legislation "In 1905 the women of England decided that politics must be practical and not theorejjcal," said Mrs. Emmeline Pank- hurst, nofed suffragist, speaking in Taylor Hall last Friday evening..... "And so urged on by the presence of the social eveil, they adopted militant methods fo win the vote," she continued. Mrs. Pankhurst, who spoke to the students .on the social evil, was in- troduced by President Thomas. English women had the local vote'before the national franchise. They served on hoards as administrators of the Poor Act, Mrs. Pankhurst explained, adding that "these board women realized that without the vote they never .could free women whose position was intolerable." I Mrs. Pankhurst believes that now the first battle for equality is won in the great Englisn-speaking countries, it remains to solve the problem of the social evil. "It is the outcome of subjection of women and is the product of ages," she asserted. "Hitherto, men and women have been judged by different standards. Such a con- dition is now impossible�equality must be. sought." In conclusion, Mrs. Pankhurst urged that no one neglect this important department of human life, one that con- cerns the whole race.

Cervical dysplasia refers to abnormal changes in the cells on the surface of the cervix . The cervix is the lower part of the uterus (womb) that opens at the top of the vagina.
The changes are not cancer. But they can lead to cancer of the cervix if not treated.
Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN); Precancerous changes of the cervix
Cervical dysplasia can develop at any age, but is most often seen in women ages 25 to 35.
Most often, cervical dysplasia is caused by the human papilloma virus (HPV). HPV is a common virus that is spread through sexual contact. There are many types of HPV. Some types lead to cervical dysplasia or cancer. Other types of HPV can cause genital warts.
The following may increase your risk of cervical dysplasia:
Most of the time, there are no symptoms.
You will have a pelvic exam.
Cervical dysplasia that is seen on a Pap smear is called squamous intraepithelial lesion (SIL). On the Pap smear report, these changes will be described as:
You will need more tests if a Pap smear shows abnormal cells or cervical dysplasia. If the changes were mild, follow-up Pap smears may be all that is needed.
A biopsy to confirm the condition is often needed, however. This may be done using:
Dysplasia that is seen on a biopsy of the cervix is called cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). It is grouped into three categories:
Some strains of human papillomavirus (HPV) are known to cause cervical cancer. An HPV DNA test can identify the high-risk types of HPV linked to this cancer. This test may be done:
Treatment depends on the degree of dysplasia. Mild dysplasia (LSIL or CIN I) may go away without treatment.
Treatment for moderate-to-severe dysplasia or mild dysplasia that does not go away may include:
If you have had dysplasia, you will need to have repeat exams every 12 months or as recommended by your doctor.
Early diagnosis and prompt treatment cures most cases of cervical dysplasia. However, the condition may return.
Without treatment, severe cervical dysplasia may change into invasive cancer. It can take 10 or more years for cervical dysplasia to develop into cancer. The risk of cancer is lower for mild dysplasia.
Call your health care provider if you are age 21 or older and have never had a pelvic exam and Pap smear.
Ask your health care provider about the HPV vaccine . Girls who receive this vaccine before they become sexually active reduce their chance of getting cervical cancer.
You can reduce your risk of developing cervical dysplasia by taking the following steps:

Thank You Letters
Writing Thank You Letters
The thank you letter DOES make a difference and can help you stand out among prospective candidates.
- The letter should be addressed to the person(s) with whom you interviewed. Ask for your interviewers' business cards, or write down their titles and the proper spelling of their names before leaving the interview.
- Prepare your letter using a business letter format on high quality paper. Mail your letter in a matching envelope ideally within 24-48 hours following the interview. If your handwriting is legible, you may also choose to use a high quality, thank you card and hand write your note.
- Keep your letter brief and concise. Mention the date of your interview and your continued interest in both the position for which you interviewed and the organization.
- Reiterate your most important skills and qualifications, how you expect to contribute to the organization, and any unique points of interest discussed during the interview.
- Express your appreciation for the opportunity to interview, tour the facilities, meet other employees, and confirm follow up procedures. Leave no doubt in the interviewer's mind about your enthusiasm for the position.
- If you have previously corresponded with the employer by email, it is acceptable to also send your thank you via email.
Leaving a Professional Voice Message
You've sent your thank you letter, allowed a few weeks for the hiring process to move forward, and now it is time to give the recruiter or hiring manager a pleasant nudge. Remember, you want to keep yourself and your capabilities active in their considerations.
Be sure to leave the following information in your voicemail:
- Name (twice)
- Phone number (twice, slowly)
- Reminder that you recently interviewed and/or previously interacted
- An upbeat message
- A pleasant reiteration of your interest
- A graceful exit

A lot is being said these days about distracted driving, including the contention that engaging in a hands-free phone conversation is just as bad as holding the phone to one's ear. Apparently the danger comes from the conversation itself; not from the technology involved. It does seem to me that two hands are better than one, and that some conversations are more compelling than others, but I will have … Read More
