Dooner's opening by U¥U student David Fullmer g News writer UVU student Mark Winget held a week-long grand opening for his new restaurant, Dooners Fresh Seasoned Grille, in Riverton, May 5-10. Winget's restaurant, which is the first of its kind in America, was part of his Technology Management capstone class at UVU. "Thanks to UVU, this 'concept has become a realffy," said Winget. ' |nl Fellow students'' Bretft Riggle, Dallas Jackriian and Eric Sheffield worked to-' gether with Winget on the project under the direction of professor Wayne Hanewicz. The team was challenged to use all their learnings to benefit the community and boost the economy. The team got to practice Technology Management while using their Accounting and Business Management skills acquired at UVU. Roughly, 30 conceptual drawings were created before they had their blueprint for America's first Dooner 's Restaurant. "This class was the perfect boost to bring this idea to life," Winget said. "I had all the resources I needed." His most important resource might be his love of food. Dooner's gets its name from a traditional Turkish food popular all over Europe. A dooner is a grilled bread pocket with your choice of meat, vegetables and dressing. Winget developed a taste for dooners while serving as an LDS missionary in Hamburg, Germany. "Dooners are Europe's most popular food," said Winget who serves as President and Founder of Dooners of America. "They are just as big in Canada and Australia as well, and we are excited to introduce such a popular food to America." The Riverton Dooner's Grille is actually a 3-in-l store along with Dooners Delights and the Bascom Ran.cn Southwest Grille. Dooners Delights is a bakery serving Gelato and chocolates while the Bascom Ranch Grille has a small menu of recipes from the family of the legendary rodeo rider Earl Bascom. Winget is "Doonerizing" America one store at a time with his next restaurant opening in the Provo area. Winget has also set a lofty goal of opening 10,000 stores in 30 years. "We want everyone's support as we introduce America to a healthy alternative to hot dogs and hamburgers," said Winget. I Fellowship in Ethics'f awarded to Dr. Knowlton Hanna Hopklnson g | News writer The Ethics Faculty Advisory Committee recently announced the recipient of the University Faculty Fellowship in Ethics: Dr. David Clark Knowlton, associate professor of behavioral science, received $7,000 for the 2008-2009 academic year. "I was overwhelmed when I learned I had recei ved the award. From what I have been told, the competition was stiff," Knowlton commented. "There are a lot of very fine faculty members at UVSC each with outstanding projects they are working on." The grant will go toward Dr. Knowlton' s research regarding the study of the ethics and anthropology of Christianity amongst the indigenous people of Bolivia. "I am excited," Knowlton said. "I can now bring to conclusion a research project 'I have been working on ever since Ifirstdid field work in Bolivia some twenty-nine years ago." The purpose of the University Faculty Fellowship in Ethics is to facilitate faculty scholarship in interdisciplinary ethics, exploring moral challenges in a variety of disciplines. In this specific case, the grant gives Dr. Knowlton the opportunity to buy off several classes that are normally part of his teaching load. This allows him more time to research and write. As a social anthropologist, Dr. Knowlton has been actively involved in researching religious and social change in Bolivia as well as the development of supranational religions, the main focus being the Mormon, or LDS, religion. "I will be traveling to Bolivia to meet with people from a village I originally worked with and update my research," Knowlton said. "It takes a lot of time to read material I need for context, as well as think through the material, and write a manuscript. I am thrilled to now have that time thanks to this award." Since his first conversa^ tions with rural Bolivians, who tutored him in their culture, Knowlton has been concerned with the different ways globalized society impacts lesser-known areas of the world, such as Bolivia. Dr. Knowlton will present his findings on his research and scholarship during his fellowship year as the University Ethics Faculty Fellow keynote address during Ethics Awareness Week in 2009.

"Service is a wonderful way to get community involved at UVU and highlighting these specific people brings the campus and community closer together." |
