Those 270,000 words would become his memoir. "We were looking for a reoccurring theme," Fausett said. "That theme was greed. We worship our rich." On Jan. 31, Dr. Englehardt, McNeil and Fausett will bring the issue of greed outweighing ethics to UVU students in a panel discussion in the library auditorium. "Utah Valley is such a large consumer of diamonds; we need to take responsibility for our involvement in the conflict," McNeil said. "It may be happening over in Africa, and we may not have to see it, but because we buy and sell diamonds we are directly connected to the problem." Fausett does not know what will change the cycle of greed, but he wants it talked about. "I'd like to see what comes after greed," Fausett said. "I would like to see that over-the-rainbow world, but I don't think I ever will." Retention is huge. When I integrate dance with science, even six months later they remember it a lot better than if a week later if they just sat there and heard a lecture." For Nancy Kertamus, a conference attendee and teacher at Daybreak Elementary in South Jordan, using the arts to teach core subjects has made a noticeable difference in average test scores compared to last year's students. "I had a 15-point jump in CRT scores in science because I put dance and music into my curriculum," Kertamus said. She said the increase from 78 percent to 93 percent worked "because my kids were moving, they paid attention better." In Rogan's concluding remarks of the Dramatizing Literature workshop, she said teaching art as an integrated subject is not only effective, but essential to its survival.

Sierra-West. = 41r41°1 credits a semester for a student to graduate within four years. Managing a full school load is often not possible because of work and family responsibilities, a problem for many students at UVU. Administration is hoping that students will take advantage of these changes to the summer semester to help shoulder the burden of those credits students may have missed during the fall and spring. "I attended summer semester because it offered everything that I needed to be successful in my education," said alumna Jessica Awtrey who used the benefits of summer semester to complete her philosophy degree within four years. "For students that need to work or have families, it's crucial that UVU is on the front end of providing that kind of flexibility." Keeping students within their four-year goals not only helps the university as it tries to meet Utah's Big Goal, but the administration hopes to help students keep educational debts down by moving them through their studies faster. With the drop in enrollment this year and the controversies surrounding state funding, administration is trying to help students by addressing their educational needs. "I think students need to take seriously, even under the conditions of enrollment and different things, that this is an opportunity," Evans said. "I think UVU is the place. UVU is becoming a destination campus. Look at the growth. This is just another component to serve our students." CLASSIFIEDS Financial Aids& Loans are available • Aviation Administration and Professional Pilot degree emphases available V courses so students could use them to their advantage. "We've looked at our bottleneck courses and programs that are landlocked, we've evaluated high demand classes, looked at waitlists, and looked at the student needs," Evans said. "They've really looked at a lot of factors to create the most effective summer schedule that best serves the students." This push to improve the summer semester is a natural evolution to the growth the school has experienced since becoming a university in 2008. Now the administration is trying to communicate the benefits that summer semesters have for students. Studies show that students who attend a summer semester during their collegiate career are about 11 percent more likely to graduate, many of them benefitting from the small class sizes characteristic of the summer blocks. "Summer semesters are better. I've seen the success of my students personally, and I've seen that they like it a lot better," said Terrell Wyche, academic advisor for Biology. The goal of having a more proactive summer semester is to help students graduate sooner. Counselors recommend an average of 15 SPENCER HARRIS/UVU REVIEW white earning your degree! UTAH VALLEY u NI.FFSIT. SUMMER from Al there are theatre teachers teaching just for the sake of theatre, eventually theatre will cease to exist in schools," Rogan said. Kertamus said this is partially due to people thinking art and music are goofy. She is saddened because this attitude causes them to remove the subjects." Incorporating more art and music activities didn't take any additional funds. Kertamus simply had to get creative. "I didn't have to buy anything," Kertamus said. "Everything I did was with supplies I already had, and I didn't spend any of my own money, which is hard because you only get about $150,000 a year for 24 kids and it doesn't go very far." Regardless of the challenges, Brianna Frederick, junior elementary education major, was excited to attend the conference to learn from other teachers in hopes to "change kids lives and so that they can understand that they can actually succeed, even if they are told they can't."
