Frederick Douglass’ extraordinary life continues to have an impact, and an East Stroudsburg University graduate student is doing her part to ensure that his legacy lives on. Khristy Almonte, a first-year graduate student in ESU’s professional and secondary education program, developed a junior high lesson plan centered on the life and work of Douglass, who was born into slavery and became a social reformer, orator, writer, statesman and key leader in emancipation. Almonte is the graduate assistant of ESU’s Frederick Douglass Institute as well as a middle school teacher for the Diocese of Scranton. These professional experiences helped inform her lesson plan’s content so that today’s students can become more familiar with Douglass.

East Stroudsburg University is one of four universities in Pennsylvania’s State System of Higher Education (PASSHE) to receive a $3,448,451 grant from the National Science Foundation to increase recruitment and graduation of students from underrepresented groups in STEM. The five-year grant, NSF’s Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation program (LSAMP) is a joint effort of ESU, Millersville, Slippery Rocky, and West Chester. The goal of the Keystone LSAMP program is to increase the number of students graduating with a STEM bachelor’s degree by 40 students per year across the four institutions. These areas of study include biology, chemistry, computer science, mathematics, and physics. The LSAMP program will provide stipends, travel support, and opportunities for student involvement.

While you’re with your special someone this Valentine’s Day or crying in your room with a box of chocolates you bought yourself, your tradition is nothing compared to the pagan’s ancient rituals.  Valentine’s Day was rumored to have started in the 6th century B.C. with a pagan festival called Lupercalia. According to NBC Washington, the festival, held annually between February 13 and 15 in ancient Rome, was “intended to purify the city and facilitate fertility, but it fostered ominous rituals, including sacrificing animals and beating women.”

Dr. Mykee Fowlin is a performer for students at schools. He teaches kids through characters he makes up to let them understand the meaning of lessons they hear every day. He has gone through many difficult experiences in his life and speaks to younger generations to help keep them on the good path in their own lives. In “I Am Not The Enemy,” he discusses many lessons about people. Two of his characters regarded a story about a little girl’s death. He started talking about the main character’s teenage life in high school and how he was a people pleaser. He got bullied by the popular seniors, but when he didn’t report them, they started inviting him to party with them. He went on to his adult life, still drinking and doing drugs on the weekends. One time, his friends asked him to take them home, and when he did, they accidentally hit a little girl on the street. The girl was ten, and she died.  “
