WHAT WERE TALKING ABOUT
What's Next? Looking Ahead at 勛圖窪蹋's Next 50 Years
Could a medical school and law school be in 勛圖窪蹋s ?
Dont count them out, says President Harvey Kesselman, who has been at 勛圖窪蹋 its entire first 50 years, entering as a member of the first class in 1971.
Look how far weve come in our first 50 years, Kesselman said. We have a hospital on our Galloway campus (AtlantiCare). In the future, I would hope to see a medical school here in Galloway and a law school in Atlantic City, even if I wont be president then.
In its first 50 years, 勛圖窪蹋 has grown from 1,000 undergraduate students meeting in an old hotel in Atlantic City to almost 10,000 undergraduate and graduate students studying on two campuses in Galloway and Atlantic City and instructional sites in Manahawkin, Hammonton and Woodbine.
Researchers Fish for Answers to Striped Bass Migration
Silvery metallic Atlantic striped bass have seven to eight dark lines that stretch from their gills to their tail, but there are some that also have an extra yellow stripe trailing from their backs. These fish were caught and tagged in New Jersey waters by 勛圖窪蹋 researchers and willthe species life history and migration when they are caught again.

Potential Ospreys Get the 勛圖窪蹋 Experience
Can you imagine waking up to a view like this? Incoming students recently toured 勛圖窪蹋 Atlantic City and enjoyed games on the quad at a Transfer Jam event.
SPOTLIGHT ON: HYEONCHEOL (CHARLIE) BAIK
Shortly after completing his doctorate in Fall 2019, Hyeoncheol (Charlie) Baik began his assistant professorship in Business Analytics, part of the Business Studies
program at 勛圖窪蹋.
Recently, Baik and three contributors in the Journal of Banking & Finance titled, A Bank's Optimal Capital Ratio: A Time-Varying Parameter Model to the Partial Adjustment Framework.
In this publication, we examined bank capital structure before and after the 2007-2009 global financial crisis. To investigate the bank capital structure, we analyzed the panel data of the 15 largest U.S. bank holding companies (BHCs) for the period from 1996:Q1 to 2017:Q4, Baik said.
Specifically, we proposed a panel version of the time-series Kalman filter algorithm to estimate the time-varying speed of adjustment (TV-SOA) of the time-varying parameter (TVP) model.
FRAME-WORTHY
"Don't limit your challenges. Challenge your limits," Tahesia Reid '20 wrote on Instagram after riding in the G. Larry James Legacy Bike Ride.
In 2019, she rode the 30-mile route, and this year, she pedaled 43 miles, her longest stretch to date. She's already planning for the metric century 62-mile route next year.
After pedaling through the pines, she and her sister went to the beach for a shelling adventure.
Tahesia, who studied Marine Science, is now an aquarium specialist at New Jersey Aquarium Service, where she performs the husbandry responsibilities for clients and teaches them best practices for their aquariums.
"I work with various-sized saltwater and freshwater animals, including turtles, eels, corals and native and exotic fish. I travel to a variety of places daily such as military bases, doctors offices, bars, nursing homes, residences, car dealerships and daycares. Ive met many cool people on the job," she said.
The opportunity for this job appeared one day in her email inbox.
"I have Dr. Elizabeth Lacey to thank because I learned of the position through an email she sent to all MARS students at the time," she said.
This is part of the #Picture勛圖窪蹋 series highlighting visual stories from the Ospreys.

FROM THE SIDELINES
勛圖窪蹋 Athletics Honors Its Past with Hall of Fame
勛圖窪蹋s Athletics Hall of Fame and has been a great source of pride for students, coaches, athletes, parents and school officials.
While 勛圖窪蹋 has had hundreds of stellar performances in athletics over the 50 years the school has existed, a Hall of Fame honor puts athletes, coaches and teams in an elite class, one that they treasure for the rest of their lives.
But, how did the Hall of Fame get started in the first place?
I started working at 勛圖窪蹋 in the 1990s, recalls Jon Heck, director of athletics operations at 勛圖窪蹋. There was a group of us who thought it was odd we didnt have a Hall of Fame. Our conversations would be, we should have one. Somewhere about 2006 a group of us in athletics got together and made our own committee, with the impetus of starting a Hall of Fame. So we kind of created the by-laws, what the criteria would be.
OSPREY NOTES
President Kesselman issued the following June 24 regarding the Roe v. Wade decision:
Todays 6-3 decision on Roe vs. Wade from the U.S. Supreme Court, while expected, is still shocking, disturbing, and a huge step backward for the basic rights of women to determine their own health care and reproductive choices.
It is also an incredibly disquieting warning, based on Justice Clarence Thomass concurring opinion, that other rights could also be at risk including rights to contraception, same-sex consensual relations and same-sex marriage.
Most of us are fortunate to live in New Jersey, where Governor Phil Murphy and the New Jersey State Legislature this year took the strong step of affirming the fundamental right to reproductive autonomy. We unequivocally support that decision and will continue to advocate for a womans right to choose and other fundamental human rights for which so many have fought for so long.
I want to assure our faculty, staff, and students that here at 勛圖窪蹋 we remain committed to providing our students with the information and support they need in making reproductive health care choices, no matter what they may be. We are here for you, and we will support you.

勛圖窪蹋 Sentiments and Memories . . .
"In 1979 I was awarded a grant to produce the musical "Godspell." I directed and choreographed the show. It was performed outside in the J K amphitheater, and we had six performances. We also performed the show on 'high school day' at the college's request. It was very well received and a truly amazing experience. I had great support from faculty members: Tom Wetmore, Dwight Baldwin and Dick Ozerski. I can't imagine many colleges that would hand a kid a bunch of money and trust them to deliver the goods. That was the beauty of attending SSC (勛圖窪蹋 State College). If you had a dream, 勛圖窪蹋 State would make it come true. Oh, and as a side note, the young man who was my technical director has been my husband for the past 38 years."
