The Advanced Academy permits early entrance to college courses. It initially will be available to students of the Marshall and Ohio County schools. The program is designed for high school juniors and seniors who exhibit high levels of achievement and are interested in accelerating their academic careers. Students will still be enrolled at their respective high schools, but all coursework will be completed at West Liberty University. The students effectively will be enrolled in high school and college simultaneously, while being allowed to participate in after-school extracurricular activities at their high schools. The academic offerings will fulfill WLU’s general studies courses while meeting high school graduation requirements.

“The program is designed to support talented and motivated students in reaching their academic goals,” Ronald A. Witt, Jr., executive director of the Institute for Innovation in Education at WLU said.

“All parties involved have worked very hard on the development of this initiative and it is extremely satisfying knowing our efforts will be realized by those students who will ultimately benefit from this unique learning experience,” Witt added.

Students will be enrolled in WLU’s Honors College for the 2012-2013 academic year. The Honors College is an academic community engaging highly motivated and intellectually advanced students in exceptional experiences that develop excellence in leadership, scholarship and service. Susan McGowan-Koyzis, interim dean of the Honors College, said the academy will offer a unique “blended” experience to both existing Honors College students and the high school-aged students.

Academy students will participate with Honors College students in a weeklong orientation session which will begin a week before regular classes start. McGowan-Koyzis explained, “Both Academy and Honors students will participate in team building activities, study a specifically chosen academic, interdisciplinary theme and explore models of leadership.”

Walter Jagela will serve as academic coordinator of the Advanced Academy. “I look forward to working with our Academy students to provide the best possible guidance for them in their time with us,” he said.

The program was developed in cooperation with the Marshall and Ohio County schools with assistance from RESA-VI.

Capehart said, “Our participating high schools are very excited to offer this alternative pathway for accelerated education. Our county and high school counterparts realize this is a great opportunity for select students in their respective schools and is not intended to restrict any program or activities that are currently being offered at the high school level.”

He added, “As a widely-known leader and innovator in the field of education, West Liberty University will continue building on its traditional strengths while advancing education through innovative and knowledge-based programs such as the Advanced Academy of West Virginia. Together, these efforts will provide students of the region the opportunity for a high quality education.”

Here’s a link to Joselyn King’s story in the Wednesday edition of the Wheeling News-Register: ‘Monty’ Named Distinguished West Virginian

The award recognizes individuals who have made significant contributions to the state of West Virginia and brought positive attention to the state.

A number of Montgomery’s former players joined current students and area leaders for the ceremony, which was held during an assembly at the John Marshall High School Auditorium.

A five-time West Virginia Coach of the Year, Montgomery has averaged more than 21 wins a season throughout his 38 years as head baseball coach at the Marshall County consolidation. He ranks among the nation’s top 30 active coaches with more than 800 career victories.

Wheeling native and West Liberty University alumna Elizabeth “Jake” Feinler was recently named as an inductee to the Internet Society’s Hall of Fame inaugural class. The inductees were announced Monday in Geneva, Switzerland, at Internet Society’s annual conference, where the group is celebrating its 20th year. ISOC is home to the Internet Engineering Task Force, the Internet’s technical standards setting body, and is funded largely by the .org top level domain.

The inaugural group includes 33 of the Internet’s most influential engineers, evangelists and entrepreneurs including Internet fathers Robert Kahn and Vinton Cerf; Internet standards guru Jon Postel; web inventor Tim Berners-Lee; encryption pioneer Phil Zimmerman; and Mozilla’s Mitchell Baker. Former vice president Al Gore is being inducted as well. As a U.S. senator in the 1980s, Gore was the first politician to grasp the potential of the Internet.

The inductees fall into three categories: Pioneers who were key to the early design of the Internet; Innovators who built on the Internet’s foundations with technical innovations and policy work; and Global Connectors who have helped expand the Internet’s growth and use around the world. Feinler is being inducted into the Hall of Fame under the Pioneer category.

Known to friends as “Jake,” Elizabeth Feinler was at the forefront of the development of the Internet and is credited with having coined the phrase and context of “dot com.” A 1954 graduate of then West Liberty State College, she received her master’s degree from Purdue University. Throughout her career, she cultivated computer information services for universities, government agencies and private firms. She ran the Network Information Center for the Science Research Center, which developed the earliest Internet search engines, the concept of menu-driven computer interfaces, and techniques for displaying and composing e-mail offline long before the creation of Windows or Macintosh. Her group also created the naming registry for world wide web domains, resulting in the now famous “.com” designation behind web addresses, along with “.edu,” “.gov,” “.org,” and “.mil.”

Feinler was recognized for her achievements by her alma mater, and in 2001 was inducted into the West Liberty Alumni Wall of Honor.

“These awards acknowledge the outstanding achievements of West Liberty University students. I am proud of their accomplishments and grateful for the dedicated faculty and staff members who encourage our students to set high standards for learning,” said Scott Cook, Dean of Enrollment and Student Services/Registrar.

The ceremonies will include the swearing in of the 2012-2013 Student Government Association officers.

The West Liberty University Great Gala is sold out for the second straight year. This annual event is only two years old and received an overwhelming response from the community and WLU alumni in its first year, last April.

This year the event is brought to you by The Ryan Ferns Healthplex and is held at the Oglebay Resort and Conference Center Pine Room, Saturday, April 28.

The cocktail reception begins at 6:30 p.m. During dinner a Vaudeville Variety Show will be performed by WLU faculty and students.  After dinner, a show will be performed by Davina and The Vagabonds known in The Twin Cities, Minnesota as being the busiest band in town because of their hard-working professionalism, high energy stage performance, and original sound.

All proceeds from this fundraising event will go toward the University’s initiative to make West Liberty a Great University! In particular, proceeds will support the Kelly Theatre Encore Campaign, which will provide much-needed renovations to WLU’s Kelly Theatre located in the Hall of Fine Arts. Kelly Theatre, a cultural fixture on the West Liberty campus since 1967, was named in honor of Dr. Helen M.T. Kelly, who was a member of the Speech and Theatre department faculty from 1964-1976. Dr. Kelly directed the first production in the new theatre.
