8 CALE IDOSCOPE

Because of their predictable frequency in

academic papers, this month’s column focuses on a

commonly confused word pair and two faulty thesis

statements. Correcting the errors requires some

effort, of course, but the effort pales when measured

against the immediate academic success you'll

enjoy. Can you correct the problems in the

following sentences?

“If you don’t wish to read the book now, please

remove it's reserve tag and return it to me.”

“In this paper, I will identify the problems that

occurred under President Franklin Roosevelt’s

administration.”

“There are many differences and many

similarities in the speaking styles of the two

ministers.”

The first sentence above commits what is likely

the most widespread possessive case error in

English, so much so that a colleague believes that a

previous column's brief reference to the error bears

a more thorough discussion this time around.

Corrected, it should read, “If you don't wish to read

the book now, please remove its reserve tag and

return it to me.”

“It’s” is a contraction meaning either “it is” or “it

has”–nothing more. “Its” is a possessive case

pronoun. We probably confuse the two forms

because we forget that all possessive case pronouns

have “built-in” apostrophes. To add an apostrophe

to the hidden one, then, is to add the kind of

redundancy illustrated in the following sentences:

“Give John his’ book”; “This book is your’s”; “This

book is our’s”; “Return the book to its’ designated

area”; and “They thought the books were theirs’ to

keep.” (If you avoid using contractions in academic

papers, you’ll avoid these kinds of potential errors.)

Re: the remaining sentences: A thesis statement

not only must avoid announcing with a personal

pronoun the content of an essay, but it also must

avoid stating a fact instead of a supportable

opinion. In other words, that problems occurred

during the Roosevelt presidency is factual; that

similarities and differences exist between the

speaking styles of two ministers is also factual.

Replace the vagueness with precise opinions

(perhaps about the effects of the problems or about

the reason one minister’s speaking style, unlike the

other’s, engages the audience). Moreover, using the

expletive “there are” only compounds the problem

of a weak thesis. To improve your writing skills

(and earn high marks on your papers as a result),

you’ll find few moments more worthwhile than

spending time with your English handbook

reviewing the characteristics of an effective thesis

statement.

To the faculty who contributed to this month's

column, thank you. As always, I welcome suggestions

from students, staff, and faculty for these monthly

columns. Please write me at jmiller@ccccd.edu .

Rodney Coltman, professor of

philosophy, and Sherry Schuman,

professor of physical education,

were named as outstanding

professors of the academic year

2002-2003 at the annual

All College Day in January.

The Outstanding Faculty Award

recognizes faculty based

on peer recommendation,

division recommendation, student

evaluations, classroom visitation

and the instructor’s self-evaluation.

Sherry Schumann received her

Bachelor of Science degree in

physical education in 1979 and her

Master of Science degree in

education in 1982, both

from Florida State University

in Tallahassee.

Prior to joining CCCCD,

Schumann taught at East

Tennessee State University in

Tennessee and at Valdosta State

University in Georgia. Schumann

Relationships are complicated enough, but

try adding college classes, extracurricular

activities, a job, and trying to find time to

study. Where does all the time go? CCCCD

students are all too familiar with the struggle

for balance between class and personal lives,

and, with Valentine’s Day right around the

corner, Caleidoscope is profiling one campus

couple that is making it work.

A CCCCD-born romance, Robby

Kirschner and Loni Lambeth, began during

the summer of 2001 at freshman orientation.

“Everyone in the group was numbered off

for a scavenger hunt around campus,”

Lambeth said. “We were put in the same

group and it took Robby forever to get my

name right.”

Since Kirschner moved here that summer

from The Woodlands, Texas, Lambeth kicked

off the relationship by inviting him to

different activities with her and friends.

“She was the first girl I met here,”

Kirschner said. We became really good friends

and because we got to know each other better,

we started dating.”

Whenever possible, Kirschner and

Lambeth like to coordinate their class

schedules for the same classes so they can help

each other in studying for exams.

flashcards with the different questions that

then joined CCCCD in 1997 as

director of the fitness center and

teaching duties, she has been

coordinator of the division of

the past two years.

As professor, Schumann has

Dr. Linda Adams, CCCCD wellness coordinator and professor,

helped coordinate a prototype “Walk Across Texas” in Collin County.

Thirty-two staff, faculty and friends recently logged 2,148 miles as they

participated in the pilot program — the equivalent of two round trips

from Dallas to South Padre Island. Teams compiled their miles over an

eight-week period. Members were challenged to walk daily and record

their mileage. Mileage was then reported to a team captain, who

coordinated all paperwork. Team captains included Rosanne Ciccia,

Samatha Limmer, Carole Morgan and Diana Browning. At the end of

the eight weeks, the team's mileage was tabulated and reported. Due to

the success of this activity, “Walk Across Texas” will be offered

throughout Collin County in 2003.

Hong Gao, research associate, presented a paper titled “Examining

the Length of Time to Completion at a Community College” at the

Annual Conference of the Southern Association for Institutional

Research held in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, in October. This study

developed a systematic and comprehensive model to determine the

factors that impact the length of time it takes for community college

students to complete their degrees.

Paula Roman, executive director of the CCCCD Foundation, Inc.,

has been invited to sit on the board of directors of Allen Community

Outreach, a non-profit organization dedicated to assisting families in

need by providing basic necessities, specialized programs and

independent living skills. Roman will join 13 other board members in

serving the Allen community.

Janet Sheppard, director of continuing education at CYC, was a

presenter and co-presenter of papers at two different conferences. The

first paper, “An Integrated Solution for Planning, Managing and

Scheduling Continuing Education Classes,” was presented at the

National Conference for Continuing Education Trainers in

Richmond, Virginia, October 27 - 30. The second, co-presented with

Natalie Greenwell, professional development program director, was

“An Integrated Solution for Planning, Managing and Scheduling

Continuing Education Classes” presented at the League for Innovation

in Community Colleges Conference on Information Technology in

Long Beach, California, Nov. 17 - 20.

Elaine Stewart, formerly of career services at CPC, will be the new

acting assistant director of student life. Her office will be located at

SCC, and she can be reached at extension 5787.

Jay Whitlow, associate registrar at PRC, received her Master of Arts

Degree in education from Southwestern Baptist Theological

Seminary.

Matthew Ware Coulter, professor of history, contributed a chapter

to Franklin D. Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln: Competing Perspectives on Two

Great Presidencies, published by M.E. Sharpe in 2003. Coulter’s chapter,

“Teaching FDR to the Next Generation,” describes innovative

approaches to teaching about the Roosevelt era.

might be on the test,” Lambeth said.

“Then we would quiz each other

until we got every question right.”

According to Tracey Fleniken of

CCCCD’s Counseling Service

Department, “An important thing

to remember when trying to find a

balance between the various parts

of your life—such as school, work

relationships and hobbies—is that

you are an individual, so your needs

and sense of balance may be very

different from other people around

you.

“Instead of trying to find a way

to juggle everything, identify the

things that are most important to

you and your life,” said Fleniken.

“Trying to accomplish all the things

you think you ‘should’ be doing or

‘should’ be able to handle is very

exhausting and can lead to a sense

of feeling overwhelmed.”

Aside from juggling a full class

load and making time to study,

Kirschner also serves as the

treasurer for Phi Theta Kappa in

which Lambeth is an active

member.

“It is great to have things in

common,” Kirschner said. “I love it

that we can be involved in both Phi

Theta Kappa and in our classes.”

Like all college students, the

couple enjoys spending their spare

time hanging out with friends or

just in each other’s company.

“Having a full load of classes and

trying to have a healthy relationship

is not an easy task,” Lambeth said.

“When we are together, the time is

much more valuable.”

The ultimate test for the

relationship is quickly approaching

as Kirschner is planning to transfer

to the University of Georgia; a

move which would add significant

strain on each of them.

“If I could change anything in

our relationship it would be for

him to stay,” Lambeth said.

In service to the college and to

the community, Schumann has

conducted CPR, safety and first-aid

training for staff at the Child

Development Center, served as a

spokesperson at the National Girls

and Women in Sports Day at Plano

Independent School District and has

even been a TV commentator at the

college’s basketball games.

In her philosophy-of-teaching

statement, Schumann writes that

“[t]he current health, fitness, and

wellness issues that we face in the

United States are overwhelming.

Obesity, inactivity, depression and

heart disease are on an increase, yet,

we have more health information

available to us than ever before. The

knowledge apparently isn’t enough.

We must develop an internal focus

of control that brings meaning and

motivation to the idea that a fit mind

and a fit body go hand in hand.”

Here is how she responded to

recent questions about her personal

and professional life:

Receiving recognition at All

College Day: made me feel very

honored. I work with a tremendous

group of faculty, any of whom could

have received this award. To be

recognized by one’s peers is the

ultimate pat on the back.

The biggest challenge I’ve ever

faced: has come from being a faculty

member at one institution and then

moving to another institution (I

have been at four different

colleges/universities). Each time I

have had to reestablish myself as a

colleague, a teacher and a leader.

My biggest source of inspiration:

my father. He was a great leader,

professor and man. He was a

Department Chair and Full Professor

in Physical Education/Recreation.

Most people don’t know that: I

performed acrobatic acts that were

taught to me by my dad, such as

flying trapeze, etc. He was the

founder of the Florida State

University Circus, the only collegiate

circus in the United States.

The best thing about working at

CCCCD: blazing new trails, meeting

new students, sharing with colleagues.

Rod Coltman earned his Ph.D.

from DePaul University in Chicago

in 1997. The title of his dissertation,

defended with distinction in the

Department of Philosophy, was

“Dwelling in the Middle: Dialectical

Hermeneutics and the Topology

of Being.”

Dr. Coltman is an admirer of

German philosopher Hans-Georg

Gadamer, often referred to as the

father of hermeneutics, a

branch of continental European

philosophy concerned with

human understanding and the

phenomenon of interpretation

(http://lancelot.uchicago.edu/gada

mer/). Dr. Coltman has dedicated

much of his academic study to this

philosopher and his field, but he is

also deeply interested in the thought

and culture of ancient Greece.

At various institutions, including

Austin College, CCCCD, DePaul,

SMU and UTD, Dr. Coltman has

taught such courses as Introduction

to Philosophy, Modern Logic, Ethics:

Theory and Practice, A History of

European Social and Political

Thought and Existentialism.

His extensive service to the

college has included being named

chair of the Philosophy Self-study

Task Force, serving as a member of

the Faculty Senate Constitution

Committee and a member of the

Restructuring Task Force. Dr.

Coltman is the originator and

curator of the Faculty Publications

Project, which has produced the

“Faculty in Print” series on display

in the campus libraries.

Here is how he responded to

recent questions about his personal

and professional life:

Receiving recognition at All-

College Day: A little embarrassed,

actually. I appreciate the hard work

that the selection committee did,

and I was very pleased and flattered

to have received the award; but it’s

hard for me to imagine that I really

am one of the two best professors at

this college.

My biggest source of inspiration:

My very first philosophy professor at

UTD, a clever and engaging

Scotsman by the name of Victor

Worsfold, showed me that you could

actually make a profession of

thinking, reading and writing.

Another philosophy professor at

UTD, Charles Bambach, motivated

me to move away from the Anglo-

American analytical philosophy that

dominates in the U.S. and pursue

continental European thought. But

the German philosopher, Hans-

Georg Gadamer, who died last year

at the age of 102, is my philosophical

hero and the focus of my scholarly

activities.

Most people don’t know that: I

worked for a civil engineering

company for nearly 10 years before

going back to school to study

philosophy.

Best thing about working at

CCCCD: Two things come to mind:

(1) The high quality of the faculty

here. It is not often that a

community college has so many

professors who could easily have

tenure at a first rate university; and

(2) the great camaraderie and

collegiality among the faculty. Both

of these things bode extremely well

for the quality of the education our

students receive.
