Emeritus Faculty Provide College with a Solid Foundation

Emeritus Faculty Provide
College with a
Solid Foundation
Retired faculty member Ms. Sonia Green
(School of HPER, 1965-1996) remembers
how different UNO was when she arrived to
teach women’s physical education courses in
the mid-1960s.
Title IX wouldn’t change the face of
women’s athletics programs for another halfdozen
years. The baby boom generation was
just starting on the road to higher education.
And the University’s landscape hadn’t yet been
transformed by dorms and a burgeoning south
campus.
“All the women had classes in a Quonset
hut for I don’t know how long,” she
reminisces. “It had one classroom that was also
used for the dance studio.”
Times certainly have changed. But
because of the commitment of our
faculty—those no longer with us and those
who continue to serve us—the College of
Education has grown by leaps and bounds.
“I was proud to be at UNO,” says Ms.
Green, who served as the School of HPER
director from 1992 to 1996. “Academically,
the students just get better and better. The
growth of the University is mind-boggling to
me.”
Influencing New Generations
Dean John Langan emphasizes the
importance of tapping into retired faculty’s
knowledge and continuing to call on them as
an integral part of the College’s team.
“These individuals are an immeasurable
resource to us,” he says. “So many of them
continue to be engaged with the College, in a
variety of ways.”

The feature story in this edition
of Happenings focuses on emeritus
faculty and honors the memory
of those colleagues who are
now deceased. It’s obvious to
those of us who have followed
these individuals as faculty in
the College of Education that
we are clearly standing on their
shoulders. They’ve enabled us to
continue the legacy of a college
that places students at the center,
focuses on academic excellence,
and stays connected to the
metropolitan community.
Dr. John T. Langan
I had the pleasure just this
month of having lunch with a large
group of these emeritus faculty; I wish you could have had the
opportunity to be there to feel the energy in that room. We shared
stories from the past, reminisced about those friends who have
left us, and felt reassured about the future of the college as we
discussed the new breed of young faculty joining our ranks.
We have lots of heroes today—
sportsmen, supermodels, media
personalities. They come,
they have their 15 minutes
of fame, and they go. But the
influence of good teachers
stays with us. They are the
people who really shape our life.
--Jonathan Sacks
The College of Education owes a debt of gratitude to those
individuals you will read about in the body of this publication. What
they’ve given us is their knowledge, their wisdom—and most of all,
their friendship. The best way to honor their past service is to look
toward the future and continue to build a legacy of excellence
upon the firm foundation they worked so diligently to establish.
Cordially,
Dr. John T. Langan

Multi-Faceted Program Serves Campus and Community
The graduate program in the
Department of Counseling offers a
vibrant curriculum combined with
innovative teaching methods to meet
the high demand for mental health
professionals. Candidates may pursue
a degree from any of four specialty
areas, including Elementary School
Counseling, Secondary School
Counseling, Agency/Community
Counseling, and Student Affairs in
Higher Education.
The Department’s school counseling
and community counseling programs
are accredited by the Council for
Accreditation of Counseling and Related
Educational Programs (CACREP),
an independent agency recognized
by the Council for Higher Education
Accreditation.
Closing the Achievement
Gap
In June, the program hosted 230
school counselors from 65 Nebraska
communities at the 3rd Annual School
Counselor Academy, a partnership
with the Nebraska Department of
Education. As educators essential to
the success of all students and critical
to individual student plans, school
counselors focused on the use of data
to address performance gaps in student
achievement. The event stirred a sense of
excitement as counselors designed plans
for their schools to collect, interpret and
share data that will make a direct impact
on daily practice in their schools.
Other community service includes
the Fall 2005 placement of more than 30
school counseling candidates in area K-
12 schools. These candidates completed
a 700-hour practicum sequence at
each of their sites. While working with
youth in their respective schools, UNO
candidates offer small group counseling,
classroom group guidance lessons and
individual counseling, supporting the
overall academic success of every child.
A Clinic in the Community
The Department continues to
deliver innovative teaching approaches
through its Community Counseling
Clinic, offering low-cost services
Counselors engaged in discussion at the 3rd
Annual School Counselor Academy
including individual, marriage, family
and group counseling. Assistance is
available at no cost to UNO students,
and for a small fee to Omaha-area
citizens.
Professors and licensed mental
health practitioners supervise and
support students in their beginning
TAP Prepares Professionals to Be Teachers
The participants in the Teacher
Academy Project (TAP) bring a unique
point of view to the classroom. As
seasoned professionals—many who have
made a career in the business world—
they offer students special insight.
Julie Kemp worked in accounting
for 20 years, but never forgot about the
notion of becoming a teacher. Reading
an article about TAP in the newspaper
was the nudge she needed to go back to
school.
“I was at a crossroads in my job,”
she says. “I loved the firm I worked for,
but I was working seasonally and my
kids were getting older. I knew I needed
something that was mine.”
Kemp became a member of the
2001-2002 TAP class. After completing
the program, she was offered a position
at Millard North High School in
Omaha. Today, she teaches five classes in
business, accounting and marketing.
“I work far more hours as a teacher
than I did as a CPA,” she notes. But the
rewards are worth it. “The students love
to hear real-world experience and I get
to see how incredible these teenagers are
every day.”

later complete advanced practicum and
internship that serves dozens of metro
area mental health facilities.
Bringing Aid to Those in
Need
In the aftermath of Hurricane
Katrina, Dr. Jeannette Seaberry and Dr.
Paul Barnes represented the College
of Education’s effort to support the
American Red Cross disaster relief effort.
The professors served for two weeks as
volunteer crisis counselors, working in
the affected Alabama and Mississippi
areas.
Dr. Barnes worked in a shelter in
the Biloxi-Gulfport area as one of two
mental health workers providing support
to 150 survivors. Dr. Seaberry’s work
(see article, page 4) included providing
basic essentials to evacuees in Alabama
and Mississippi.
Thinking About a Second
Career in the Classroom?
The Teacher Academy Project
(TAP) is a secondary education
certification program for individuals
who have earned an undergraduate
degree and want to be teachers.
Candidates must hold a degree in a
major related to a secondary (grades
7-12) teaching subject areas (such
as mathematics, business, foreign
language or science).
This one-year, fast-track
experience was established between
UNO and the Metropolitan Omaha
Educational Consortium (MOEC).
Since TAP began, more than 100
candidates have participated in the
program.
Application deadline is February
1, 2006.

Professional Leaves Enhance Teaching
Often, it’s what happens outside the classroom that can have the biggest impact on
faculty and, in turn, their students. “Professional leaves” may take the form of faculty
working on research or in the community—or both. Faculty submit an application for
consideration; they also must be at UNO for at least seven years to be eligible.
“These experiences are as unique as the individual faculty member,” notes Dr.
John Langan. “The types of contributions our educators make are best described by the
questions faculty respond to when they apply for leave. They include, ‘How will this help
you professionally?’ ‘How will it help your area of study and your department?’ ‘How will
it help the University?’”
This academic year, several faculty are taking professional leave to pursue a variety of
interests. Here’s a look at what a few of our professors are doing:
Dr. Neal Topp
Professor, Teacher Education
Professional leave: 2005-2006, half time
A pioneer in the use of e-portfolios, Dr. Topp is spending a portion of the semester
researching the impact of this technology tool and sharing his knowledge with others.
He is participating in the Coalition for ePortfolio Research with nine other U.S.
universities and colleges. In this role, he is responsible for coordinating the research and
future dissemination of the information that will be gathered and serves as editor for the
coalition’s newsletter.
In addition, Dr. Topp is writing a guidebook for UNO departments that are planning
to implement student e-portfolios in their own curriculum. He has created and will
deliver a two-day faculty development workshop on the topic.
“The thoughtful implementation of e-portfolios,” he says, “can be an effective way
to improve teaching and learning. The more I learn about this process, the better able I’ll
be to help my students learn and understand the connections of the skills and knowledge
they’re acquiring.”
Dr. Jeannette Seaberry
Chair and associate professor,
Department of Counseling
Professional leave: Fall 2005
A professional leave that began with an intent to become fluent in Portuguese, work
with families in south Omaha and to write an article related to her experience changed in
a moment when Hurricane Katrina struck.
“I became all too aware that writing a check was much too easy,” says Dr. Seaberry,
“so I volunteered to work with the Red Cross in the hard-hit areas. This, to some degree,
really dramatically changed my course for professional leave study.”
The professor first went to Montgomery, Ala., then traveled on to Tylertown, Miss.
There, she worked 12-hour days at a Red Cross distribution center, handing out supplies
and monies to the evacuees. She and other volunteers served 500 to 600 families each day.
Returning home after the 11-day stint, the professor has continued her work on two
industry journal articles. Her experience in the Gulf Coast, she says, had a direct impact
on how she approached both works. She hopes to resume her study of the Portuguese
language and her mission to serve area families.
Dr. Kathy Danielson
Professor, Teacher Education Department
Professional leave: Spring 2006
In the spring, Dr. Danielson will be teaching in various classrooms in the
Metropolitan Omaha Educational Consortium schools, working with teachers and
students in writing instruction and the use of poetry in writing across the curriculum.
She also plans to study professional literature about writing and poetry writing, attend
industry conferences and write articles about these topics.
“Working with classroom teachers means I need to practice what I teach,” she notes.
“My experiences can serve as models for my students and will demonstrate to my students
how I value lifelong learning.”
“I believe my students ultimately will benefit from my own experiences working side
by side with classroom teachers,” she adds, “as we all strive to learn about effective writing
instruction in P-16 schools.”

Graduate Program
Receives
Re-Accreditation
It’s official—in July, the College’s
speech-language pathology graduate
program was notified that it received reaccreditation
from the American Speech-
Language-Hearing Association (ASHA).
The organization bestows
accreditation only on those institutions
that meet rigorous requirements in
coursework and practicum experiences.
“ASHA accreditation shows that
we hold the highest standards for our
graduates,” says Dr. Kelly Wanzenried,
program director, “and that we’re
prepared to meet the shortage of
professionals in speech-language
pathology by providing well-qualified
candidates.”
ASHA has granted re-accreditation
to the program through June 30, 2012.
College Receives
Award for
Conference
The College of Education was
awarded the 2005 Friend of Education
Award by the Region II Nebraska
Association of Elementary School
Principals (NAESP). The award
recognizes the College’s co-sponsorship
of the Student Leadership Conference,
an annual event that draws upper
elementary students who are leaders in
their schools.
Students whose principals are
members of the NAESP are eligible
to attend. Held at UNO in October,
this year’s conference featured breakout
sessions and keynote speakers from
Make-a-Wish Foundation and KM3
News.
The College’s Office of Student
Services was instrumental in helping
coordinate the event through facilities
and food arrangements as well as
participant schedules. This was the
fourth year the College has served as a
co-sponsor for the event.

Dr. Frank Brasile was one of 15
individuals inducted into the Boys Club
of New York Hall of Fame. During

UNO as part of a program designed
to develop and maintain interactions
between the western Galilee region and
the U.S. Dr. Lloyd and Dr. Peled are
collaborating on research related to a
“twinning” project with Friedel Jewish
Academy in Omaha and Ma’ayonot

Alumni Spotlight
Administrator Believes in Community Service
Dr. Rick Kolowski isn’t afraid to tackle new things. In 1967,
he had just been cut from the Kansas City Chiefs and came to
play for the Omaha Mustangs. He and his wife Bonnie moved to
Omaha to start a new chapter in their lives.
He went on to earn an M.S. in Secondary Education/History
from UNO in 1970. Later, he received a Ph.D in Secondary
Education from UNL in 1978.
In 1993, Dr. Kolowski was hired as first-ever principal of
Millard West High School in southwest Omaha. Almost 13 years
later, he’s still at the helm of the school—which has increased its enrollment 65
percent since it opened its doors in 1995.
The educator has been an active member of Phi Delta Kappa International,
serving as its international president from 1999 to 2001. A longtime participant
in the organization, he says he considers his involvement to be “one of the
highlights of my career.” He continues to serve PDK on the Centennial
Committee as the group prepares for its anniversary in 2006; he also is a member
of the Future Educators of America National Advisory Committee.
Dr. Kolowski was elected to a seat on the Papio-Missouri River Natural
Resources District (NRD) board in 2004, he began his tenure in January 2005.
Currently, he also serves as assistant treasurer for the board.
The administrator and community volunteer reports that his wife Bonnie
just retired as principal of Neihardt Elementary School in Millard. “We have two
college-graduated, married and employed sons (that’s hitting life’s trifecta!) and
our daughters-in-law are great!”

Emeritus Faculty (continued from page 1)
children’s literature, Dr. Mary Lickteig
(Teacher Education, 1966-1997)
remains modest about her achievements.
“The best thing about my work
at UNO was the interaction with the
students,” she says, “feeling in some
small way you helped them in their
careers. I felt like we gave them a
personal touch. We did whatever we
could to see that they had the best
experiences.”
Dr. Lickteig has seen many of her
former students rise to positions as
principals in Omaha-area schools. She
encounters these familiar faces often, at
everyday places like the grocery store or
a restaurant. Their comments reinforce
her wishes: “They say that they use what
they learned.”
“I’m really proud of the College
of Education and what they continue
to do for students,” Dr. Licktieg
adds. “It’s wonderful to see their
accomplishments.”
Visiting at the Emeritus Faculty luncheon were members of three departments of the
college: Edsel Buchanan, School of Health, Physical Education and Recreation; Jean
Bressler, Teacher Education; and Darrell Kellams, Educational Administration and
Supervision.
Over the years, emeritus faculty have
served as mentors for newer professors,
pitched in as adjunct faculty, visited with
area legislators on key issues and served
as volunteers for the College’s Building a
Legacy campaign.
Dr. Blaine Ward (Educational
Administration and Supervision, 1969-
1999) specialized in human resources
and school business management.
Currently, he supervises administrative
practicum students on a part-time basis.
Each semester, he meets with them
and their administrator mentor as they
apply their classroom theory and gain
experience in their chosen field.
“It’s so enjoyable to get out in the
schools and work with these soonto-be
educational leaders,” he says.
“Often, their mentors in the field, their
principals, are students I had in class. It’s
good to see how well these graduates are
doing and have a chance to follow up on
their careers.”
Supporting the Profession
During his tenure, Dr. Verne
Haselwood (Teacher Education, 1963-
1999) taught library science and directed
the Library Science Program for a
decade.
“I always felt I had to first teach
students and then my subject,” he
reflects. “I wanted to know who
they were, their background, what
they aspired to be and what gifts and
challenges they came with. To see
the determination they had was very
satisfying to me.”
Today, Dr. Haselwood still puts
students first. Since retiring, he has
continued to work with library science
students—like Dr. Ward, he supervises
practicum candidates in the community.
His efforts take him to schools in the
Omaha metro and in surrounding rural
areas.
In addition, he serves on the UNO
Library Friends board of directors and is
the part-time librarian for the Midwest
Regional Office of the National Parks
Service in Omaha.
