AdvisersMarti Harvey

Michael Koretzky

When FAU fired the UP adviser on three days’ notice, administrators told us, “We are not leaving you with nothing.”

Well, it’s now been more than a month, but the UP has next to nothing.

FAU’s student media director now serves as our official interim adviser; however, investigation has revealed that she’s inflated her journalism background and downplayed her criminal background.

Since then, this story has been covered everywhere from the Palm Beach Post to the Huffington Post.

But it’s not because the outside world cares about a random student newspaper at a fourth-tier school.

This story has caught the attention of media outlets across the country because of how poorly FAU has handled the situation. Administrators have lied to the UP staff, refused to talk about journalism in the presence of a recorder, and threatened me with unconstitutional demands.

They claim they want to “move student media forward,” but in the process, they seem to have taken a giant step backward.

For those of you who may not have followed the news coverage, this timeline documents the curious events of the UP’s first month in operation without a qualified adviser.

May 18: Student Media Director Marti Harvey fires Michael Koretzky, the UP’s adviser of 12 years. According to Koretzky, Harvey claimed that Senior VP of Student Affairs Charles Brown insisted that Koretzky get only three days’ notice and that Brown would not say why.

May 21: Koretzky’s last official day.

May 21, 2 p.m.: In lieu of the UP’s usual staff meeting, Harvey and her boss, Associate Dean of Students Terry Mena, field questions about and attempt to explain how Koretzky’s firing was part of FAU’s efforts to “move student media forward.” More than 60 current and former UP staff members as well as Student Government officials, among others, show up for the two-hour meeting. Harvey’s first words? “I don’t know how to express my thanks to [Koretzky] for doing what he’s done here at FAU with the UP.” Her first words when he offers to stay on as a volunteer adviser till his replacement is found? “I don’t know.”

May 25: I start my blog, Owl Management, to bring transparency to administration.

May 25: Harvey e-mails me, wanting to meet to discuss FAU’s new assistant student media director position. She says I cannot record the conversation because it’s about a personnel matter. Attorney Frank LoMonte, director of the Student Press Law Center, calls her excuse “bogus.”

May 27: I tell Harvey that I couldn’t find any bylines from the “almost four years” that she claims she worked for the Dallas Morning News. She shuts my journalistic inquiry down by telling me to go through their HR department to confirm her time there.

May 28: Although FAU wouldn’t let him be a volunteer adviser, Harvey tells the Sun Sentinel that Koretzky may return to the UP newsroom as a volunteer adviser as long as I file paperwork for each meeting he speaks at.

May 29: The Sun Sentinel runs a story on the front page of their local section.

May 31: I declare on Owl Management that I’m not going to file anymore paperwork for Koretzky to visit the UP as a guest speaker. For one, I’d learned that none of my predecessors were required to file such paperwork despite hosting plenty of guest speakers over the years. For two, I felt that FAU was hiding behind paperwork rules.

June 1: The Huffington Post weighs in on the Sun Sentinel’s May 29 story.

June 2: The St. Louis Post-Dispatch weighs in on the Sun Sentinel’s May 29 story.

June 3: Harvey tells me, on behalf of FAU lawyer Audra Lazarus, that I “may not meet with [Koretzky] off campus or on campus for the purpose of advising.” Harvey explains that FAU policy states that advisers must be employees and reminds me that I would be breaking policy if I continued to seek advice from the seasoned journalist.

Letter from the editor

<<< Continued from the previous page

June 4: I call Lazarus to make sure I understood her unconstitutional demand correctly. She refuses to comment and then some: “We’re not going to have any comments. I’m not going to have any comment on anything related to this issue. … Like I said, we won’t be commenting, nor does my office comment.”

June 4: The Student Press Law Center posts a news flash.

June 4: WLRN Miami Herald News runs a story.

June 4: FAU posts the position for an assistant student media director. Although the UP’s part-time adviser made $25,000/year, this administrator will work twice as many hours for only $38,000 to $43,000/year.

June 7: Conservative organization Young Americans for Freedom runs a press release that calls FAU lawyer Audra Lazarus a “university henchman.”

June 8: The editorial board of the country’s largest student newspaper, the University of Florida’s Alligator, weighs in. While a student at UF, Koretzky served as editor-in-chief of the Alligator and was its first EIC to serve two consecutive terms.

June 8: The national president of the Society of Professional Journalists sends a letter to FAU President Mary Jane Saunders. It’s her second day on the job.

June 9: I try again to speak to Harvey about her time at the Dallas Morning News. But instead of having a conversation about journalism with the head of one of the student media outlets she oversees, the student media director tells me I’d have to go through Media Relations and schedule a formal interview.

June 10: Senior VP of Student Affairs Charles Brown responds to the Society of Professional Journalists’ June 8 letter, mentioning a UP internship. It’s the first anyone at the UP has heard of the internship.

June 11: I interview Harvey. She answers all of my questions about her journalism and student media experience but says her criminal background “has no bearing on [her] job.”

June 11: I blog about Harvey’s criminal record. At the age of 36, she was arrested for possession of more than 100 joints’ worth of marijuana after telling the cops she had only “two joints” in her house, according to the police report. Narcotics officers also found “triple beam scales” and “paraphernalia” in her home, the report said.

June 14: The Palm Beach Post runs a story on the front page of their local section.

June 14: Although more than 1,500 miles away, the University of Vermont’s student media adviser weighs in: “This is the weirdest, saddest, most public Student Press vs. University saga I’ve seen in my advising career,” he says.

June 15, 5:02 p.m.: Charles Brown’s assistant calls me to tell me he needs to see me first thing the next morning. “I just wanted to talk to you about all of this that’s been going on,” Brown himself claims by phone.

June 16: I meet with Brown, who essentially apologizes without apologizing: “I just want to clarify this whole thing about advisers, you know, Michael being a volunteer adviser. I don’t mind him being a volunteer adviser. He can be a volunteer adviser, no problem. … I have no problem with that, and I need to clarify that.” When I attempt to ask a few related questions, he gives me at least 10 variations on “no comment,” forcing me to conclude that Student Affairs won’t discuss student affairs with students.

June 16: I blog for the last time about Harvey’s Dallas Morning News experience. After finally getting the truth out of her and getting ahold of their HR department, I report that Harvey was essentially no more than an intern there.

June 17, 9:14 a.m.: Brown’s assistant e-mails me and then calls me. Brown needs to meet with me again at 10 a.m., she says. Working at my other job all day, I send a former editor-in-chief in my place to the seemingly urgent meeting. But as it turns out, all Brown wants is to claim Student Affairs doesn’t want to control content, and to inform student media leaders about the reorganization of student media — even though the student media director had already scheduled a meeting to address the subject.

June 18: Seven business days after I first attempted to reach him, I interview Associate Dean of Students Terry Mena. Like Brown, he too refuses to answer questions, reinforcing my conclusion that Student Affairs won’t discuss student affairs with students.

June 18: The editorial board of the Palm Beach Post weighs in, concluding that “to improve student media, the university needs to first improve its communication with students.”

June 18: FAU’s posting for the position of the assistant student media director closes.

This week, I have two big meetings: one on Monday with the student media director and my fellow student media leaders to discuss FAU’s reorganization plan, and one on Tuesday with the committee that will select the assistant student media director.

A nurse — who also calls herself a “humorologist” — is suing FAU because a professor used her work without permission, and she apparently doesn’t find it funny.

On June 2, Josepha Campinha-Bacote, Ph.D., from Ohio, filed suit against Dr. Sandra Gibson, an assistant professor, and against FAU itself.

Assistant Vice President and Press Secretary Kristine Gobbo said, “The university does not comment on potential litigation.”

According to the lawsuit,

According to Campinha-Bacote’s Web site (www.transculturalcare.net), this tool is a written test that measures a person’s cultural competence by addressing the “five cultural constructs of desire, awareness, knowledge, skill and encounters.”

According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (USDHHS), cultural competence in health care affects the relationship between doctors, nurses and patients.

As the USDHHS Web site (www.hrsa.gov) puts it, “The provider and the patient each bring their individual learned patterns of language and culture to the health care experience, which must be transcended to achieve equal access and quality health care.”

In addition to Campinha-Bacote’s lawyers, Weeks and Macon, LLP, the lawsuit requests that Campinha-Bacote’s son, Avonte’s, also serve as her lawyer.

According to an e-mail from Avonte, “Dr. Campinha-Bacote declines to comment on the ongoing litigation at this point in time.”

Lawyers assigned to the case from Weeks and Macon did not respond to voice mail.

The lawsuit itself, however, breaks down what happened.

On May 4, 2010, Dr. Sandra Gibson called

Campinha-Bacote and asked for help in cultural competence training.

Gibson did not present any written permission to use the tool. On May 6, Gibson sent an e-mail to Campinha-Bacote admitting “unauthorized use of her tool.”

Gibson refused to comment on the lawsuit.Campinha-Bacote wanted Gibson (and FAU)

to do three things. First, pay her what it would have cost to use the material. Second, destroy any material she currently has. And third, request permission to use the tool in the future.

According to Campinha-Bacote’s Web site, in order to buy the IAPCC-R, one has to first buy her book The Process of Cultural Competence in the Delivery of Healthcare Services: The Journey Continues for $30. Then, each written test costs

$8. So, if Gibson had distributed the tool to, say, 100 people, she would have had to pay back $830.

However, “defendants refused to comply with these requirements.”

On a side note, in 2006, Campinha-Bacote had actually given permission to a different FAU professor, Dr. Rose Sherman, but “permission was only granted until 2008 and for a limited purpose only.”

During a phone conversation with the UP on June 9, Sherman admitted she knew nothing of the week-old lawsuit. She refused to make any further comment.

The lawsuit asks the court to do several things, among them: (1) the defendants be prohibited from using the tool in any manner, (2) the defendants give back all relevant material, (3) the defendants pay pre-judgment and post-judgment interest on the damages, and (4) that the court award the plaintiff all other justified relief.

A hearing has not been set yet for the lawsuit.

Snapshots of historyPresident Mary Jane Saunders settles in

Karla Bowsher

Editor-in-chiEf

The new president’s first weeks at FAU have kept her busy.President Saunders’ schedule has been filled with on- and off-campus

meetings. But, like a freshman, she’s also had to learn her way around the Boca campus and even get her photo taken for her Owl Card.

President saunders attended her second staff meeting on June 15. These meetings are attended by the vice presidents of various parts of the university, ranging from Charles Brown (far left), the senior vice president of student affairs, to Dennis Crudele (far right), the interim senior vice president of Financial affairs.

on June 9, President saunders attended her first formal meeting with the Board of Trustees, a 13-member council of FaU’s highest-ranking decision-makers. saunders, the former provost at Cleveland state University in ohio, emphasized the importance of research. “It strengthens every part of the institution,” she told the Board. “These kinds of activities on the parts of faculty and staff really help the students to have a high quality of education, and that’s our goal.”

President saunders visited the Boca campus’s student Union to get her owl Card on June 10. after the five-minute process to get her school ID, she mingled with orientation leaders in the lobby.

Managing Editor

Australian researchers can now record the deep ocean without being spotted thanks to Medusa, a remote-operated underwater platform.

Due to its special lighting, the Medusa does not scare away certain sea life that would otherwise swim away at the sight of regular lights.

In March, Harbor Branch Oceanographic

Institute (HBOI), FAU’s marine campus in Fort Pierce, finished the development of the lander, which is essentially a robot that can be submerged up to 5,500 feet, or more than a mile. Different tools, like cameras or arms, can be attached to it and used to collect data.

HBOI gave the two models it built to University of Queensland (UQ) in Australia, which funded the entire project. In August 2010, HBOI project manager Lee Frey will join UQ’s scientists and use

Medusa in the waters west of South America.Professor Justin Marshall, Ph.D., of UQ’s

Queensland Brain Institute (QBI), was a key player in developing Medusa alongside Frey. He said that some sea life might see Medusa’s lights in the same way humans see infrared lights, which is not at all.

“We want to see them behaving in their natural context,” he said. “They behave a lot more normally if you don’t shine bright lights in their faces.”

But at the same time, Medusa had to be able to attract sea life. Along with tuna heads, Frey and Marshall created other elements to lure animals to the lander.

“A lot of animals in the deep sea generate light,” explained Frey. “We’ve designed some sensors to emulate that light as sort of optical attractant, like flashy lights to draw prey in rather than a stinky fish head.”

Medusa took about a year to make, and its design, development and testing cost roughly $50,000. Now, according to Marshall, more Medusas can be built for much less, and UQ would like to buy more of them.

“We can mass produce them for half that price,” he said. “It depends a little bit on the funding, but it would be nice to have 10 of these.”

Medusa will help scientists see the sea in its natural habitat without obtrusive lights, but it still leaves a question mark as to what the lander will accomplish.

“This is not a hypothesis-driven device,” said Frey. “This is an exploratory device.”

So far, Marshall and his team have taken Medusa out for a testing spin between May 12 and 22. The lander got down to almost 5,000 feet.

“The most memorable bit was seeing the first big shark coming,” said Marshall of the captured footage. “It’s great to see the animals come in and be quite happy to cruise past and take the bait and not get scared by [Medusa].”

Looking ahead, both Marshall and Frey want to use Medusa for educational purposes.

“I’m hoping that we’re going to have some good data of underwater life we haven’t seen before,” said Frey. “I hope we can convince people to understand what we have before we destroy it.”

Medusa’s ball feet keep it from getting stuck in the mud and allow it to land on an uneven surface.

Synthetic foam floatation module:Ultrahard foam holds buoyancy at depths that would crush and flood typical foam.

LED light arrays: Lights that can simulate different environments. For example, far-red lighting doesn’t disturb deep-sea creatures, blue-green lighting simulates natural lighting, and white lighting emulates downwelling sunlight.

Modular frame:Like a Lego set, the frame can be changed to alter the configuration of the lander. Other sensors, batteries, cameras and arms can be attached to it.

It doesn’t end with Medusa

HBOI has a summer internship that allows students to get real experience with projects similar to the one that developed Medusa. HBOI project manager Lee Frey said, “interns are not treated like most other interns are treated.

“We architect a project for them to do; we don’t have our interns just digging ditches or getting coffee,” said Frey. “They can get some real hands-on work experience with real oceanographic hardware.”

Branch, email education@hboi.fau.edu.

The newest FAU tradition arrived last month after being delayed by U.S. Customs.

The Taylor Victory Bell is 50 pounds of solid brass that was forged in India. Its purpose is to unify the FAU community and build more support for its athletic teams.

“I think it will help enhance the growing body of tradition,” said Paul Metcalf, the assistant director of alumni relations. “It’s symbolic of the energy and enthusiasm of student alumni and of the Athletics Department.”

The bell will be brought to various sporting events starting this fall, according to Michael Burdman, an alumni relations graduate assistant. After each game, coaches will pick a player to ring it.

Alumnus Robert “Crash” Taylor, who donated the bell, hopes that it will bring in students, faculty and staff who didn’t previously attend sporting events. It was named after him, but it was Burdman’s idea.

Burdman explained that after an “exciting” home basketball game against FAU rival Florida

International University, he felt that the university needed something more.

“I decided that we need something special to crown our victories,” said Burdman.

He then tossed the idea around, and Taylor immediately got involved.

“I looked at training bells, thousands of bells,” said Taylor. “I found the biggest damn bell I could buy.”

The bell cost $900 without shipping or labor charges, said Taylor. After being finished, it was put on a cargo ship and sent across the Atlantic. But once it reached American soil, it was stopped by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

The company he bought the bell from had it shipped to a port they had never used before, according to Taylor. As a result, it was inspected four different times, including by the Department of Homeland Security. Because of the delays,

FAU received the bell a month later than expected.The UP inquired as to the nature of the

inspections, but U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement never responded.

After the bell finally arrived, Taylor realized that it needed a support frame. He got his inspiration from the Liberty Bell postage stamp. After drawing up a design, he constructed a frame with neighbor Bob Weherald, who is also a member of FAU’s Owl Club.

After five coats of shellac and stain, Crash put the Taylor Victory Bell in the back of a pick-up truck and personally delivered it to the Boca campus.

If you’re an FAU student interested in intramurals, you might be happy to know FAU is offering more summer sports than ever before.In addition to the traditional summer sport of

five-on-five basketball, FAU is adding inner tube water polo and team handball to the roster.For the summer A session, the only intramural

sport offered was five-on-five basketball, but Kate Quinlan, coordinator for sports and competition, wants to give students more chances to get involved in summer B.“Fall and spring are definitely our busiest times

for intramurals, the summer the past few years have been pretty quiet,” said Quinlan. “Once we opened the [Recreation and Fitness Building] last summer was the first time we ever offered any [summer intramural sports] at all.”While summer sports are generally more relaxed

than intramural sports during the school year, the competition can definitely heat up.“Basketball is super competitive. The football

team always enters in at least two basketball teams in the summer,” said Quinlan.Offering fewer sports in the summer allows

both players and officials alike to focus more on a particular sport.“It’s been nice going from the fall and spring where

we do have multiple sports, and just concentrating more on [basketball], because then our officials also get the chance to really dial into basketball and really focus,” said Ben Sheu, graduate assistant of intramural sports. Still, there’s room for everyone in the world of

intramural summer sports. “There’s a huge disparity between talent,” said

Quinlan. “There’s people who played sports in high school, or played at other schools, or played for FAU and are no longer on the team for whatever reason. They obviously take it very seriously and those teams are very competitive. And then we have other teams that are just out here to have fun; they don’t really care what happens.”No matter what sport players might have played

in high school, chances are they haven’t seen the two new sport adaptations being introduced.Inner tube water polo is played like regular

water polo with one exception: All the players are wearing an inner tube.

“Inner tube takes out the element of having to tread water, and it puts everyone on a level playing field because you have to stay in your inner tube,” said Quinlan. “You can’t really look athletic, and you can’t look cool playing this game, but it’s really fun.”The game will be played in the lap lane side of the

Rec Center pool with regular water polo goals and teams of four — three players and a goalie.Intramural team handball is a sort of combination

of Ultimate Frisbee and soccer played on a basketball court. The game is played with a size 3 soccer ball, and looks like Ultimate Frisbee because players can’t run with the ball once they catch it. Teams will have six members — five players and a goalie.Overall, FAU hopes to give students a relaxed

summer atmosphere where they can get involved and have some fun at the same time.“Summer’s kind of laid-back,” said Quinlan. “It’s

a little more relaxed.”
