State education official to speak on campus

BGSU faculty and students will have an opportunity to hear from the second in command at the Ohio Department of Education. Jim Herrholtz will be on campus Feb. 19 to discuss how the department's initiatives affect higher education, including Common Core, teacher evaluation and more.

Faculty are invited to the 10 a.m. discussion in 201 Bowen-Thompson Student Union.

He will address students at 3 p.m. in the Donnell Theatre at the Wolfe Center for the Arts.

Herrholtz oversees the offices of Curriculum and Instruction; Assessment; Exceptional Children; Early Learning; Instructional Technology; Educator Effectiveness; Educator Licensure; Professional Conduct and Educator Equity and Talent.

Those interested in attending are asked to sign up by using the inside scroll bar to find "Higher Education's Role in Educational Initiatives in Ohio."

A.L.I.C.E. training scheduled

The BGSU Police Department will host a day of training in an alternative to the traditional lockdown response to an armed intruder. Known as A.L.I.C.E. (Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter, Evacuate), the training shows how to take an active role in your survival in the event this occurs when lockdown is not appropriate.

Faculty, staff and students campus-wide are invited to attend one of the five sessions offered Feb. 20 in the Bowen-Thompson Student Union Theater.

The approximately 90-minute training sessions will be held at 8:30 a.m., 10:30 a.m., 2:30 p.m., 7 p.m. and 9:15 p.m. Registration is not required.

Instructors will discuss the mental and physical tools that could play a vital role in your survival.

For more information, contact the BGSU Police Department at 419-372-2346 or email Capt. Michael Campbell at campbem@bgsu.edu
