Back To School Tips For Dorm Room And Campus Safety
Life on a college campus can be exciting, especially for freshmen enjoying their first taste of life away from home. As exciting as campus life can be, it also can be a bit nervewracking for students who have never before had to fend for themselves. Administrators and security personnel work to make school environments as safe as possible, but incidents can happen on any campus. A recent report from Campus Safety and Security, there were 38,100 reported criminal offenses, including burglary and identity theft, on college campuses in the United States in 2017.
stairwells are common places for assailants to target victims. If you ever feel uncomfortable, trust your instincts and err on the side of caution.
• Hide or lock up valuables. You never know what may catch the eye of a thief. Devices and cash are near the top of lists of most commonly stolen possessions, but a desperate student may steal notes or even expensive textbooks if he or she is struggling. Always close doors and lock dorm rooms when leaving. Keep valuables out of sight at school. Consider buying a dorm room safe and lock your locker at all times. • Prepare for emergencies. Research the school’s policies on emergency preparedness. Some have text alert systems for emergency situations like adverse weather conditions, while others have clear guidelines on what students should do
• Install window alarms. Many retailers sell batteryoperated window alarms that can be adhered to windows. The alarms will activate if the window is opened or the glass breaks. These alarms can provide extra security even if your dorm room isn’t on the ground floor.
if they feel threatened in any way. Participate in fire drills and learn the nearest exits and protocols for emergency evacuations.
move around, but it can’t hurt to schedule certain classes, particularly if they take place after dark, with a friend so you can walk to and from classes • Utilize the buddy system. together. Security experts Most campuses are safe to say that elevators and
• Be alert when ridesharing. The safety resource Safety.com says rideshare crimes are on the rise. Always identify your driver and vehicle before getting in and ask the driver to identify your name, as he or she will have it and your destination. Wait for the
ride in a safe place, and try to avoid riding alone. • Maintain personal health. Be sure to visit the doctor and stay current on necessary vaccinations, such as the one for meningococcal disease. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says the risk for meningococcal disease in college students is slightly higher than the risk in other teens and young adults who are not attending college. Other communicative diseases can spread more easily on campus as well. Campus and dorm safety is multifaceted. Informed students can reduce their risk of being involved in accidents or being targeted by criminals.
Back To School How Volunteering Benefits Students Volunteering is often seen through the lens of how volunteers help to improve their communities. Though there’s no denying the valuable role volunteers play in strengthening their communities, it’s worth noting just how much volunteers can benefit from donating their time and effort to worthy causes. A 2020 study published in the Journal of Happiness asked 70,000 participants about their volunteering habits and mental health. The study found that, when compared to those who did not volunteer, people who had volunteered in the previous 12 months were more satisfied with their lives and gave their overall health higher ratings. Volunteering
can
benefit anyone, and can be especially valuable to students, benefitting their overall health and helping in myriad other ways as well. • Volunteering can get a foot in the door. The National Association of Colleges and Employers reports that employers expect to hire 7.2 percent more new college graduates from the class of 2021 than they did from the class of 2020. That’s encouraging news, but recent graduates will still face stiff competition as they look for their first job. Volunteering with an organization in their field can be a great way for current students and recent graduates to get their foot in the door. Even if a volunteering opportunity does not
ultimately lead to a job offer, the experience students gain can help them stand out in a crowded pool of job applicants down the road.
of undergraduates in associate’s and bachelor’s degree programs who had declared majors changed their majors at least once within three years of their initial enrollment. The same report noted that roughly one in 10 changed majors more than once. Those statistics suggest that many students are uncertain about what they want to study at the onset of their college careers. Volunteering before and during college can help students explore their interests and see where their skills are applicable. They can then rely on that experience as they choose • Volunteering can help a major. students find a career • Volunteering expands path. A 2017 report from students’ social horizons. the U.S. Department Volunteers serve and work of Education found alongside people from a that about 30 percent variety of socio-economic
backgrounds. That’s a great way to see the world through a new perspective, and it also can positively affect students’ eventual careers. Professionals who have worked with people of various backgrounds are in better position to effectively communicate with a wider array of people, which can help them build a more diverse set of business relationships. Organizations recognize that value and often prioritize hiring candidates with the kind of strong interpersonal skills students develop through volunteering. Volunteering can be a great way for students to develop an array of skills that can benefit their personal and professional lives for years to come.

How To Support Students Interested In The Arts
How Students Can Transition To Life On A College Campus
Schools are diverse communities in which people from all walks of life gather to teach, learn and pursue an assortment of interests and passions. Students are perhaps the best reflection of that diversity, as even small schools are home to young people who excel in sports, music, theatre, and of course, academics. Many young people harbor a strong interest in the arts, which can provide some surprising benefits. For example, the National Endowment for the Arts reports that students with high arts participation and low socioeconomic status have a 4 percent dropout rate. That’s five times lower than their low socioeconomic status peers. In addition, a report from the Rice Kinder Institute for Urban Research found that arts education experiences reduce the proportion of students in school receiving disciplinary infractions by 3.6 percent. Despite the myriad benefits of participation in arts education, which can include improved
performance in the classroom, Americans for the Arts notes that not all students have access to art-based educational experiences. Parents of students who are interested in the arts can try various approaches to nurture those interests. • Support school-based arts education programs. Funding for arts programs is perpetually in jeopardy. Each state and school district is different, but a 2013 report from the National Association of State Boards of Education found that federal funding for arts and humanities programs totaled roughly $250 million a year, while the National Science Foundation received around $5 billion annually. Arts and sciences are both important, and parents can support legislation that directs more federal funding for the arts while urging local legislators to direct more money to arts education. • Make art a part of life at home. Americans for the Arts recommends that parents make the arts part of life at home.
Participating alongside children as they sing, dance, draw, play music or pursue other artsbased interests is a great way to incorporate the arts into home life while showing kids how fun the arts can be. • Research local performing arts schools. Children who exhibit an especially strong interest in the arts may benefit from enrolling in a school that specializes in performing arts. Such schools may be open to kids as young as five and extend all the way through high school. Some performing arts schools require prospective students to audition or apply. Arts high schools still offer instruction in core academic subjects, but parents should explore each school’s curriculum before deciding if a given school is right for their children. Arts education can have a profound impact on the life of a young person. There are many ways for parents to nurture and encourage their children’s interest in the arts.
community. The Health, Counseling and Disability Access Services at the University of MissouriSt. Louis urges students to take advantage of opportunities to engage in their new communities as early as possible. The HCDAS notes that firstyear experiences are designed to help students connect with their new life on campus and make new friends. All incoming freshmen are facing the same set of unique circumstances as the 202122 school year begins. That includes the adjustment from remote learning with limited social contact with peers to a return to more traditional academic and social settings. Navigating that transition alongside Some students may other incoming freshmen be a little anxious as can make it a little easier they prepare to return to handle. to campus this fall.

The transition go smoothly. sooner families learn these policies, the sooner they in the can begin planning for life • Engage Much has been made of the challenges that have faced students and their families during the COVID-19 pandemic. The shift to remote learning and shortened school days was difficult for many families, forcing students to adapt to virtual school on the fly as their parents adjusted to working from home full-time while doing their best to keep kids engaged in their studies and occupied when school let out each day. Given those challenges, it’s no wonder so many families are looking forward to what figures to be a more normal school year in 2021-22, but that return will pose its own unique challenges as well.
on campus. Parents also can look into on-campus resources designed to help students readjust to being back among their peers. Knowing where to go for help should students need it can ensure any issues that arise are addressed promptly. • Encourage students to share their concerns. Opening up about any concerns they may have can help students as they emerge from the pandemic. Many parents were concerned about returning to the office in person, and they can share those concerns and the ultimate outcomes of their returns with students concerned about moving onto a college campus. Parents are urged to periodically check in with college students about any anxieties they may have about being on campus. Returning to full-time, in-person learning after the pandemic may be especially challenging for incoming college freshmen. Such students can work with their parents over the summer to conquer their fears and prepare for the coming school year.

Back to school shopping sales have long been indicators that the summer vacation season is coming to a close. Students and their parents may visit area stores or browse online looking for items to make the coming school year a success. Those lists have looked similar for decades, but shopping for school supplies in the pandemic era may prove to be a unique experience.
enrolled in virtual learning. Back to school shoppers may purchase less clothing and focus more on tech items, among others. • Traditional supplies become less necessary: In 2020, Deloitte forecasted that a shift in preferences and intentions would result in parents buying fewer traditional supplies, such as notebooks and office supplies, as they chose to invest in digital resources to supplement children’s education. That shift likely will continue into this school year.
Though hundreds of millions of adults and adolescents have now been vaccinated against COVID-19, there figures to be some lingering effects of the pandemic during the upcoming school year. That could affect which school supplies families buy in the weeks to come. Here’s a look at some of the latest trends.
• Support for local retailers: Community spirit grew in the early days of the pandemic and continues now. Many people prefer to shop in locally owned stores. Eighty percent of customers surveyed feel more or as connected to their communities, according to the business industry consultant company Accenture. • Customers are trying new brands and products: Shoppers are trying new products out of curiosity as well as necessity. Back to school shopping may include novel brands and other items that may not have been readily purchased in years past. Back to school shopping may continue to look a bit different than in previous years, spawning trends that may ultimately become the new normal.

• A shift from physical stores: According to data from IBM’s U.S. Retail Index, the pandemic has accelerated a shift away from physical stores to digital shopping by about five years. It’s likely that school shoppers will turn to the internet for their supplies, which means local brick and mortar shops should increase their web presence and digital shopping capabilities to reach online shoppers. • Reassessment of what’s essential: The pandemic This includes omnichannel fulfillment, such as buy may have changed which items consumers consider online and pickup in store (BOPIS) options. essential.

Busy schedules, hybrid learning and demanding coursework have affected students’ academic performance over the last year-plus. The months since a pandemic was declared in March of 2020 have been unlike any other, and confronting the academic challenges of the pandemic may have adversely affected some students’ grades. A recent report from the Fairfax County Public Schools Office of Research and Strategic Improvement in Virginia found the number of middle and high school students with two or more failing marks increased by 83 percent in the first quarter of the 2020-2021 school year compared to the year prior, but students’ grades may slide or they may find certain school work overly challenging even in normal years. Since many parents have not seen a periodic table or had to solve high school math problems in decades, tutors may be just what students need to regain their academic footing. Failing grades are not necessarily the most notable indicator that students can benefit from the services of a tutor. The Princeton Review says 25 percent of high school students say homework is their biggest source of stress, and homework progress can help parents determine if it’s time to call in a tutor. Students who find their homework is taking too long, particularly double or triple the amount of time it once required, may need some extra help. Here are some additional indicators that a tutor may be needed.
• Declining test scores: Some students are simply poor test takers, but a gradual or sudden decline in test scores may indicate students are having trouble mastering material. Teachers can pinpoint if certain concepts are overly challenging to students and notify parents if there are any problem areas.

Kristie Golden, PhD, LMHC, CRC, Named President of Association for Mental Health and Wellness (MHAW) Kristie Golden, PhD, LMCHC, CRC, Executive Administrator and Associate Director of Operations for Stony Brook University Hospital and the Stony Brook University Neurosciences Institute, was elected President of the Board of the Long Island chapter of the Association for Mental Health and Wellness, (MHAW), which is based in Ronkonkoma. The mission of the MHAW, whose members all share the belief that mental health is as important as physical health, is to inspire people of all communities to pursue and sustain healthy, meaningful lives. This includes helping those who face chronic and serious mental illness and psychiatric disabilities, mental health issues for the first time, and the special needs of our military veterans. “Dr. Golden brings a wealth of knowledge and strategic vision to the organization. Her insight, dedication and steady-hand will be significant assets in carrying out our mission and living our values. I am looking forward to partnering with Dr. Golden and the other Board members, as we strive to meet the emotional health needs of all communities,” said Colleen Merlo, CEO, of the Association for Mental Health and Wellness. “I’m honored to lead the Association for Mental Health and Wellness as we aim to share and strengthen resources grounded in evidence-based research and that serve all people and all communities,” said Dr. Golden. “We will continue to ensure that all of the local needs and voices are heard and recognized by government leaders, the business community, advocacy groups, educational and research organizations in our region, while doing everything we can to ensure people access
KRISTIE GOLDEN PhD, LMHC, CRC the healthcare services they need.” At Stony Brook, Dr. Golden oversees operational aspects of psychiatry, neurology, neurosurgery and other related program areas. She specializes in fostering collaboration between the hospital, ambulatory services/physician practices and the community. As a member of the hospital’s Executive Staff, she plays a key role in shaping hospital policy, strategic and operating plans, community interface and budgets. She has proposed and implemented many new strategic initiatives in the neurosciences, serving patients and communities, and moving healthcare practices into the future. “Dr. Golden has been critical to our efforts to increase access and quality across all the disciplines she works with. She has unfailing optimism, tremendous organization, unparalleled knowledge of the community and its needs, and the ability to work with a variety of disciplines. The patients she serves and the faculty she works with are all much better off because of her work and devotion,” said Ramin Parsey, Co-Chair, Stony Brook Neurosciences Institute and Professor and Chair of the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Health of the Renaissance School of Medicine at Stony
Brook University. Dr. Golden has championed the mental health needs of Long Islanders since the early days of her career as a vocational counselor at Northwell’s South Oaks Hospital. There, she developed new programs and services, as Vice President of Ambulatory & Community Services before joining Stony Brook Medicine in 2013. Shortly after her arrival at Stony Brook, Dr. Golden’s expertise in the addressing the opioid epidemic led her to coordinate the addition of counselors who screen emergency department patients for alcohol and drug use, as well as depression, and connect patients and families to needed resources. Her focus is always on the triple aim — to improve the health of populations, improve the experience of patients and reduce healthcare costs — while supporting optimal health outcomes. She also currently serves on the Suffolk County Heroin and Opiate Epidemic Advisory Panel, is Co-Chair for Long island for the NY State Regional Planning Consortium, is a Board of Trustee member of Concern Housing and serves on the advisory boards of both the North and South Fork Mental/Behavioral Health Initiatives. Dr. Golden has a Doctorate in Arts and Sciences with a concentration in Health Administration from Union Institute and University, a Master of Science in Education and Rehabilitation Counseling from Hofstra University, and a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology from Stony Brook University. She has taught both graduate and undergraduate courses and has several relevant, peer-reviewed publications focused on the employment and inclusion of people with disabilities.
