On your bikes to uni
16 Oct 2012
 The Ride2Uni Day on Wednesday 17 October will see staff and students from Charles Sturt University (CSU) showing the Albury-Wodonga community the health and economic benefits of commuting to work via bicycle. Nearly 30 riders took part in an earlier bike event in September, so organisers are expecting greater numbers as the warmer weather encourages more riders to hit the road. Organiser for the event at CSU in Albury-Wodonga, Mr Wes Ward, said he started riding 10 years ago when he was told he would have to have his knees replaced within five years after many years of road running. “Thirteen years later, cycling to work up to four days a week from central Albury to the University’s Thurgoona site continues to keep me fit, calms my mind before work, saves me money on fuel, and I still have my original knees,” Mr Ward said. The Ride2Uni event in Albury-Wodonga is part of the national Ride2Work Day being held in workplaces across Australia on Wednesday 17 October.

Riders taking part in the Ride2Uni event will leave from the old CSU Library car park on Guinea Street in central Albury at 7.45am on Wednesday 17 October, cross the Borella Road overpass and pick up riders along the freeway bike track at North and Fallon Streets as well as Union Road and Thurgoona Drive before reaching the campus via the Elizabeth Mitchell Drive entrance, Thurgoona, around 8.30am. All riders will then be treated to a breakfast hosted by CSU Green in the Gums Café until around 9am.

16 Oct 2012
Charles Sturt University (CSU) in Orange will have a bigger-than-usual footprint at the Australian National Field Days when it unveils its new, larger, outdoor site today. The University has traditionally been represented with a stand in the education pavilion at the annual event, but School of Agricultural and Wine Sciences academic Ms Shevahn Telfser said this year’s larger stand would provide space for interactive demonstrations. “The stand will feature a horse skeleton which visitors can help assemble as they learn the names of each part, and a display of common and not-so-common fruits and vegetables which visitors can examine and name,” Ms Telfser said. “The idea is to engage visitors with some fun, educational activities they will be required to complete in order to earn a visitor’s bag. The Field Days is a great opportunity to not only show school-aged visitors what Charles Sturt University can offer them, but to also demonstrate our continuing commitment to agricultural science and business degrees in Orange.” The Australian National Field Days will run from today Tuesday 16 October to Thursday 18 October at Borenore near Orange.
Media Note: Contact CSU Media to arrange interviews with CSU academic Ms Shevahn Telfser. The Australian National Field Days were first held in 1952 and its Australia’s oldest annual agricultural exhibition. Each year, more than 600 exhibitors from Australia and overseas display their products and services at the event.

The television studio at Charles Sturt University (CSU) in Wagga Wagga will have a younger audience than usual when CSU students recreate the popular ABC Television program, Play School on Friday 12 October. Under the supervision of television production lecturer Mr Patrick Sproule, the Bachelor of Arts (Television Production) students will record an episode of Play School before a live audience of children from the nearby CSU Children’s Centre and Goodstart Early Learning Ashmont. Bachelor of Arts (Design for Theatre and Television) students have re-created the Play School set for the children.

 The cohort of nursing graduates from Charles Sturt University (CSU) in Dubbo will be farewelled with a luncheon by staff and fellow students from the School of Nursing, Midwifery and Indigenous Health on Thursday 11 October. Lecturer in nursing, Ms Cathy Maginnis, said the 17 students graduating from CSU in Dubbo are among 163 students across the University’s five campuses who are graduating from the Bachelor of Nursing in December. “This is the 11th year of internal nursing graduates from Charles Sturt University in Dubbo,” Ms Maginnis said. “The students are primarily mature-age women who have juggled family, employment and study. We also have two males in the group, and students who have travelled each week to attend classes from regional towns such as Coonabarabran, Tooraweenah, and Gilgandra. All have offers of new graduate nursing positions to commence in 2013, so this will be a great boost to our regional registered nurse workforce. They aim to work in a variety of discipline specialisations including medical, surgical, emergency, intensive care, and paediatrics. The majority will take up roles in Dubbo and the surrounding areas of Coonabarabran, Gilgandra and Wellington, and one student will practice in Orange.”

09 Oct 2012
Charles Sturt University (CSU) in Dubbo will host a screening of the Freedom Ride 2011 documentary as part of a meeting of the Wiradjuri Elders Group and visitors from Orange this week. The documentary tells the story of last year’s Freedom Ride re-enactment which visited the University’s Dubbo Campus and Orange on the way from Sydney to Moree. The re-enactment traced the path of Charlie Perkins’ famous Freedom Ride bus trip in 1965, which helped break down segregation laws in Australia. Participants camped at the Dubbo Campus on their 2 300km, two-week trek through 21 regional communities. Community relations officer for CSU’s Centre for Indigenous Studies, Mr John Nolan, said Youth Connections staff from the NSW Central Coast, who organised the re-enactment, would address the meeting and distribute copies of the documentary. “The re-enactment participants met local elders and community members on their way through Dubbo last year and were given a warm welcome by the University, and the event organisers can now tell the local elders and community about their achievements,” Mr Nolan said. “Charles Sturt University’s regular Wiradjuri Elders Group meetings have helped forge a great connection between the University and the local community.”

09 Oct 2012
A team of Port Macquarie High School Year 11 business students has won a competition from 192 similar teams in 29 regional schools across NSW and Victoria. The ‘Jokers’ team, consisting of Mitchell Davis and Mark Han, was the overall winner in the year-long Game On competition run by Charles Sturt University’s (CSU) Faculty of Business. Senior business teacher and competition coordinator in the local school, Ms Dianne Davison, said the students benefited from participating in the competition as it required them to analyse situations, study information and make complex and difficult decisions. “I am sure they have increased their interests in a business career as they experienced the thrill and challenge of making high level business decisions and saw the relevance of what they learned in their school courses,” Ms Davison said. The ‘virtual business’ the students ran in the simulation game was based on the automobile industry, where they needed to make decisions on human resources, marketing, operations and finance during the competition. The Dean of CSU’s Faculty of Business, Professor Lesley White, will present a prize of $2 500 to the winning school and team at 9am at Port Macquarie High School on Wednesday 10 October. Charles Sturt University will offer its Bachelor of Business Studies on its Port Macquarie Campus in 2013.

09 Oct 2012
Students and staff at Charles Sturt University (CSU), some sporting silly socks, are calling on residents in Albury-Wodonga to ‘sock it to diabetes’ as part of activities recognising Foot Health Month across Australia. Students enrolled in the podiatry degree at CSU in Albury-Wodonga are providing screening tests for participants to assess the health of their feet and to show them good self-help practices to care for their feet. Podiatry course coordinator and leading ‘silly sock wearer’ Associate Professor Paul Tinley said the screening activities were part of CSU’s commitment to address the appalling number of foot amputations caused by poor foot health in people afflicted with diabetes. “It is critically important that all people with diabetes understand the risk of injury to their feet. Feet are so far from the heart that they are often the first places to show the problems of poorly controlled diabetes such as reduced sensation. This can lead eventually to lower limb amputation and a significant impact on mobility and health. Checking your feet is important for us all, plus I like the silly socks!” Professor Tinley said.
Media Note: Interviews and pictures will be available with CSU podiatry students and Manager of the CSU Allied Health Clinic, Mr Duncan Harvey, in the clinic in Albury at 10.30am on Friday 12 October. The CSU Allied Health Clinic is located on the corner of Olive and Guinea Streets, Albury.

Public relations students from Charles Sturt University (CSU) are collaborating with event organisers to deliver bigger and better car racing, wine and food festivals in Bathurst. Mr Donald Alexander, senior lecturer in public relations (PR) at the CSU School of Communication and Creative Industries in Bathurst, said both students and the festival organisers win from these collaborations. “The Bachelor of Communication (Public Relations) students gain practical experience by working on large projects such as last weekend’s V8 Supercars Race at Mount Panorama, this week’s Bathurst Region Eats & Drinks (BRE&D) Week from 8 to 14 October and the related National Cool Climate Wine Show,” Mr Alexander said. “At least six PR students worked in the corporate office and media centre for the V8 Supercars Race to provide assistance and enhance their understanding of managing a major event and media liaison. With the new BRE&D Week and the National Cool Climate Wine Show, the students get to plan and manage an event, and develop media stories and pitch them to a range of media. They also create innovative concepts, such as this year organising for local ABC Radio to attend the wine show judging to interview associated people and cross ‘live’ to the studio.”

03 Oct 2012
 A leading water ecologist from Charles Sturt University (CSU) believes the allocation of environmental water and various environmental works and measures designed to spread water across the wetlands will allow the environment of the Murray Darling Basin to adapt to climate change. “These works spread water across the wetlands, allow wetlands to drain, and allow fish to migrate,” says Professor Max Finlayson, director of CSU’s Institute for Land, Water and Society. “The ecological condition of the Murray River and its many wetlands has been the subject of much contention and many policy responses in recent years, including the current Murray Darling Basin Plan. This has included major concerns over ecological changes in major wetlands along the river. I will use my experiences from the mouth of the Murray to illustrate some of the quandaries we face.” Professor Finlayson will present his views at the next public seminar in the Murray-Darling Basin Seminar series, titled ’Climate change adaptation for the Murray River’, at 4pm on Thursday 4 October at CSU in Albury-Wodonga.

02 Oct 2012
A Charles Sturt University (CSU) education researcher is starting a study that focuses on young children identified as being gifted. PhD student with the CSU School of Education, Ms Nikki Masters, said the study aims to find out more about the experiences of children identified as gifted as they begin their primary schooling. “For a child identified as gifted, the transition to school may bring different challenges. For example, children already reading may stop reading in the first weeks of school, having realised that other children did not read and were not expected to. When these children are left without appropriate support, emotional, social or behavioural difficulties may occur. While the educational needs of all children must be considered, the intellectual, social and emotional needs of gifted children should be also considered in their schooling.” Ms Masters is seeking children aged four or five years old who are currently attending a pre-school in Albury or surrounding Riverina district during 2012 and will start school in 2013 to gather their stories, as well as the stories of their parents, carers and educators. These children should have been identified as gifted by either their parent or their pre-school teacher. For further details about the research project, send Ms Masters an email.
Media Note: Ms Nikki Masters, who is with School of Education at CSU in Albury-Wodonga, will be available for interviews about her research at 10.30am on Thursday 4 October at the Murray Children’s Centre on CSU in Albury-Wodonga, off Elizabeth Mitchell Drive, Thurgoona.
