Mobile device use among study conducted by psychology professor

By Courtney Pedersen Staff Reporter news@cm-life.com

Through phone apps and wrist monitors, Central Michigan University psychology faculty Sarah Domoff is researching screen-time use of adolescents.

She teamed up with app developer Claire Ann Vanga from the University of Edinburgh.

The two met at a research conference in Irvine, California and began to develop a study that would rely on data the app collects.

“I’m really interested how screentime, specifically mobile devices like our smart phones and tablets, may impact adolescent development,” Domoff said. “Specifically their social and emotional development, as well as the educational outcomes and physical outcomes.”

After receiving the Faculty Research and Creative Endeavors Award through the Office of Research and Graduate Studies, Domoff began to work out the details and start the study.

Domoff and her team of three graduate and six undergraduate students use eMoodie, an app that records screen-time data and uses actigraphs, wrist monitors, to track screen use in children ages 10-12 in a study that started in May 2018.

The study specifically focuses on 10 to 12-year-olds in the Mid-Michigan area who

have their own device, either a phone or tablet.

“We will be looking at how different types of screen use predict mental and physical outcomes in 10 to 12-year-olds,” Domoff said.

Both males and females, as well as at least one parent, participate in the study. Parents and the children both answer questions and assist in answering questions about additional technology use, such as television and computer, the app can’t pick up. The data is collected from each participant for a week.

The eMoodie app records what apps are being used on Android devices and overall screen use for Apple devices. In order to get specific app information from Apple devices, the battery usage page information is recorded.

“What’s also really cool about the app is that it has what’s called ecological momentary assessment, which alerts the kids in our study to answer questions about how they are feeling, how they slept, have they experienced any cyber bullying or if there is anything that made them upset,” Domoff said. “This is so we can see in real time how those experiences may impact their phone use.”

The Child Mind Institute published “When Should You Get Your Kid a Phone?” by Danielle Cohen, which discusses the risks of cell phones for adolescents, specifically ages 10 to 12. The article states risks from cost to cyberbullying.

“The more ever-present the mobile device is, the higher the threat of cyberbullying,” Cohen wrote. “It’s also possible, through social media, for kids to be painfully aware of what

they’re missing out on.”

In addition to the data received from eMoodie, the actigraphs gather information on the physical aspects of the subjects. The actigraphs record movement activity and can determine whether someone is active, at rest or sleeping through an algorithm.

The graduate and undergraduate students have taken a large role in the study assisting with a majority of the tasks.

Domoff said the undergraduate students assisted with tasks such as recruitment, data collections, staying in touch with participants and weight and height intakes.

Andover, Minnesota graduate student Aubrey Borgen assisted a lot with the beginning of the study and spoke in Paris earlier this semester about the study.

Borgen said she stepped back so the undergraduate students can gain experience and is available as a resource to them.

When the study ends at the beginning of the summer, Borgen will be a part of the team that analyzes the data and writes papers about the results.

“The really novel and exciting aspect of this study is that we are using accurate measures of screen time and sleep,” Borgen said. “A lot of previous studies on this topic have typically asked parents and children to just report how much sleep they are getting or how much time they are spending on screens.”

Jon's Country Burgers offers look at 1957 Mount Pleasant SHOP TALK

By Hunter McLaren Staff Reporter news@cm-life.com

For 62 years, Jon’s Country Burgers has offered a little bit of everything to the Mount Pleasant community from its location at the corner of South Mission and Bellows Street.

The menu offers a variety of burgers and sandwiches, including the Country Burger — two patties, lettuce, cheese, pickles and salad dressing. There’s also fish and chips, chili, shrimp, wraps, ice cream, shakes, floats and more, all coming in several varieties.

Since it has been open, not much about the restaurant has changed. It still functions as a drive-in and all the microphones work.

A fire in 2000 required some renovations and repairs be made.

The menu remains unchanged, although the restaurant no longer serves breakfast.

The restaurant captured a slice of 1950s history. Windows that go from nearly the floor to the ceiling

surround the front of the building and a neon sign as tall as the building invites customers. There is a visible dip in the ceiling, not from age but from the angular architecture of the roof.

Meanwhile, the world around Jon’s Country Burgers has rapidly evolved.

When John Spiris built the

restaurant in 1957, many asked him why he had built it so far away from town. Now, its location is in one of the busiest areas in Mount Pleasant.

Spiris was inspired to build the restaurant based on similar eateries he saw in California, where he was stationed as a U.S Marine. Spiris named the diner after his son Jon, who was two years old when it was

built.

Jon would eventually take over the business from his father in 1977. He’s been running it ever since. It’s open 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Friday and Saturday and 11:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. Sunday.

More often than not, Jon can be found at the restaurant helping in

the kitchen. During winter months, passersby can see Jon shoveling the sidewalk.

Lake Orion junior Matthew Aiello has seen Jon shoveling snow on more than one occasion.

“It’s cool to see a guy who takes pride in his business,” Aiello said.

“He cares about that place sticking around.”

Aiello first heard about Jon’s Country Burgers from his mother, who ate there when she attended Central Michigan University years ago. She recommended it to him.

“I think it’s a staple of what Mount Pleasant is,” he said. “Being in there, you can feel the history. It’s an oldstyle restaurant in a different era.”

Sarah Droster has been waiting tables at Jon’s for 10 years. She said the wait staff is like a family, and Jon is like a second father to her. When Droster describes Jon, one thing immediately comes to mind — hard work.

“You would never be surprised to see him on his hands and knees scrubbing the floor,” she said. “He takes pride in his restaurant being clean.”

SUMMER Thank you for reading our paper. This summer, take some time for yourself.

Chippewas, it’s almost over.

We finally made it through the 2018-19 school year.

Now, whether you are finishing up exam study guides in the library or completing final papers, let’s take some time to reflect on the year we’ve had.

A grueling winter caused Central Michigan University to cancel five days due to snowy and icy conditions. Students and faculty were tasked with making up those lost class periods.

Our football team saw defeat and frustration, while our men’s and women’s basketball teams saw regularseason success and postseason heartbreaks.

We got to know our new president, Robert Davies, who’s Twitter popularity has only risen in the past nine months. His famed fedora even inspired its own Twitter account.

Whether you are experiencing something new through an internship this summer or working a job in your hometown to save money, be sure to take some time for yourself.

EDITORIAL “Take a nap. Binge watch a show,” Davies wrote in a campus-wide email. Before we move on too far, however, take a second to think about what other university president is going to tell students to binge watch a show.

Anyway, rest this summer in preparation to come back to Mount Pleasant ready to make the most of another year at CMU. If you are graduating, go on to do great things while with “Fire Up Chips” gear across the country. Set high goals and strive to achieve them.

From Central Michigan Life, we want to say thank you. Thanks for reading, following, interacting and engaging with us this year. For coverage throughout the summer, stay tuned on cm-life.com or on @CMLIFE on Twitter and CM Life on Facebook.

Andrew McDonald Sports Editor

On a warm September day in Fall 2017, I found myself rushing to Moore Hall on the campus of Central Michigan University.

I wore a button up shirt, dark blue jeans and dress shoes too tight for my feet. Even while feeling the blisters form on my heel, there was nothing that could make me miss this interview at Central Michigan Life.

After all, it was the only reason I wanted to attend this school.

I got off the elevator on the fourth floor and walked into the CM Life office, room 436. Wiping away the sweat from a my brow with a facial expression that I’m sure displayed anxiety, I searched for Andrew Surma and Greg Wickliffe, the Sports Editor and Assistant Sports Editor.

When I found them, they both greeted me with a handshake and walked me into the conference room. After introducing themselves, Surma looked at me with a smile and asked: “You look like you just ran a mile.”

I replied by saying I was in a hurry and I that didn’t want to be late. I wanted to hit the ground running, I told them.

Surma said I didn’t need to worry, I had the all the time I needed to get going.

Now, three years later, here I am following him as Sports Editor. As I write you all this column with tears hitting my keyboard at about 1 a.m. on my kitchen table, I can only ask one question: Where the hell did all that time go?

In my first year with CM Life, I made great strides on a desk full of people who had been there for years before me. My first-ever article was to write a story about the Bass Fishing Club. I took it and ran with it, so much so that I was moved up to the women’s soccer beat with a colleague and friend, Von Lozon.

That’s where my love of journalism beyond just sports started to grow.

I knew I had found what I was suppose to do — journalism.

I went on that year to cover women’s basketball and write a cover story on Sue Guevara, one of my favorite stories to this day. By the spring, I was doing the softball beat alone, something Wickliffe trusted me with after moving to the Sports Editor in the Spring semester.

With everyday that went by that first year at CMU, I began to realize I made the right choice. CM Life was the place for me and I knew it was just the beginning.

The following year, I was bumped up to football and covered it with fellow reporter Kullen Logsdon, Assistant Sports Editor Dylan Goetz and Sports Editor McKenzie Sanderson. Going to the Pro Football Hall of Fame for MAC Media

PROFESSIONAL STAFF

Cody Scanlan | Photo Editor Sports Editor Andrew McDonald, left, poses for a photo with Assistant Sports Editor Evan Petzold and Reporter Austin Chastain during a CMU basketball game.

Day was an experience I’d never forget.

Watching CMU grow as a football team and win five of its final six games gave the program something to cheer about with an 8-5 season.

And of course, I’ll never forget the 21-point fourth quarter comeback in Kalamazoo over rival Western Michigan.

Logsdon and myself couldn’t believe it, but it still stands as one of the better victories in the rivalry to this day on that stormy evening.

However, by the final home football game of that 2018 season, something really special happened. This time though, it had nothing to do with the sport itself.

Just the best friend I met doing it.

Evan Petzold, now the Assistant (to the) Sports Editor, got the chance to cover his first football game. We both stayed after and recorded our first ever recap video of the game together. It just clicked.

Later, I would post a photo saying “I think I found my new partner in crime.” I couldn’t have been more right. The men’s basketball season to come was a beat shared between Petzold and myself. We traveled to Ann Arbor, Kalamazoo and other places just to try and give the best coverage we possibly could.

It would only bloom from there.

After two years under Goetz, our Fall 2019 editor-in-chief, I finally got the chance to take the Sports Editor position this Spring. Our coverage speaks for itself this year. Breaking news stories of John Bonamego being fired, Jim McElwain getting hired, a former conditioning coach being investigated for stealing adderall, Jerry Reighard losing his job as the gymnastics coach and more. We covered it all. I want to extend a huge thanks to the phenomenal reporting from Petzold.

On top of that, the weekly coverage

from features to gamers to sidebars have been at the highest level I’ve seen at CM Life Sports during my time here. That is all credited to the great workers I’ve had on my desk this spring.

Through it all, I’ve never loved doing a job more in my life. It’s impossible to list all of the memorable moments I’ve had through covering these sports, but each one meant something to me. It was another day I got to do what I truly love doing and it all happened with the publication that became everything to me.

Now, I have to do the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my journalism career — say goodbye to the people I love. But before that, you all deserve a thanks. Without you, I wouldn’t be here. Not a chance.

First off, I want to thank Central Michigan Athletics. To any of the SID’s I bugged time and time again, thanks for putting up with us and making all of this possible. To the broadcasters like Don Chido, Adam Jaksa, Riley Edwards and many more, thanks for all the conversations I’ll miss deeply before and after games. This year alone, I want to thank Athletic Director Michael Alford for actually taking the time to get to know CM Life and myself, it meant the world to me.

I want to thank the athletes here at CMU. For any sport I covered, I tried to build a professional relationship with the players. We both had a job to do, but I can’t thank the athletes enough who took the time to get to know me. I will keep up with all of you forever and cherish the times I got to interview you and tell your stories.

Next up, I want to thank all of my readers here in Mount Pleasant. Whether you liked my articles or columns or not, I appreciate you giving the time to click on them. I am grateful for all of the feedback

I’ve ever received. The people in this community make it special and you’d never know it unless you spent time here. Thank you for letting me provide your sports coverage at CMU over the last three years.

Lastly, I want to thank all of the people who I’ve worked with at CM Life. It’s impossible to put into words what you all mean to me. From the podcasts, to late nights editing work and even just conversations about life, you all have become my family forever.

But this one is different than other families. While I’ll never leave it as a CMLifer, I have to leave it as an employee after May 4 when I’m the first to graduate in my family from a four-year college.

With that hourglass running out of sand, I think back to that day I got a job with CM Life. All of the laughs and great people I’ve met. The experiences I’ll take with me for a lifetime.

On that day, I didn’t know any of that was possible. I just wanted to hit the ground running and hurry from story to story.

Now, I’m writing my farewell and I can not wish for anything more than time to slow down.

So when you all look at past articles about certain records being broke or news that is memorable and my byline appears, I hope you all remember me as someone who loved to work for you. Someone who did everything he could to give Central Michigan the best sports coverage it could possibly have.

I’ll miss everything about this place, but I leave it knowing I gave everything I ever had. Time does eventually run out and now, it’s time for me to move onto what’s next.

Thank you all for making me who I am today.

What to expect from your Fall 2019 CM Life editor-in-chief

What’s up, everybody? I’m Dylan Goetz.

I am your Fall 2019 Editor-in-Chief. I want to take an opportunity to introduce myself, ask for your support and encourage interaction between CM Life and our readers.

First off, I think you guys should know a little bit about me. I was a Senior Scholar at Orchard View High School in Muskegon. My first taste of journalism was reading the announcements at a daily morning show in high school called “Cardinal News Network.” I’ll never forget hosting a highly-anticipated rockpaper-scissors competition live between two of the school’s most favored teachers and being mocked for my shoddy commentating skills for the next four weeks.

I have worked at Central Michigan Life since the first weeks of my college career. I wandered up to the fourth floor of Moore Hall for an open house. I thought I had a slim chance at grabbing a sports writing job.

Former Sports Editor Andrew Surma gave me that opportunity as an unproven reporter and I made the most of it. By year two, I was hired to be assistant sports editor. In Spring 2018, I was promoted to Sports editor. In Spring 2019, I was appointed Community Editor.

CM Life has fueled my passion in journalism. I have spent countless nights in the office arguing over the Oxford comma, studying the AP Stylebook and debating whether the Detroit Lions will make the playoffs or not. CM Life is the only reason I have ever been on an airplane (to cover the historic 2018 women’s

Dylan Goetz Editor-in-Chief

basketball team).

The opportunity that CM Life presented to me was the reason I came to CMU. Over the past three years, I have spent so much time in the office in the past three years that I should probably pay rent. Now, my experience has given me a unique opportunity as I start to close-out my career as a Chippewa.

In the Fall 2019 semester, I will be starting my senior year at Central Michigan University.

I study Journalism in the College of Arts and Media. By the time I start my term as editorin-chief in August, I will have internships at the Kalamazoo Gazette and Grand Haven Tribune under my belt.

As editor-in-chief next semester, I will lead Central Michigan University’s largest student publication as it celebrates its 100th-year anniversary.

Our history is full of great journalism, incredible photography, innovative design and amazing people. I am honored to continue the great CM Life tradition.

Leaving a legacy: Murray reflects on her CMU ‘homes’

By Teresa Homsi Staff Reporter news@cm-life.com

Central Michigan University Rockford senior Caroline Murray breaks down her college experience into four homes.

Her first home was marching band, where Murray played piccolo for two years and found a welcoming community.

The second was Larzelere Hall, where she served as a Resident Assistant for three years.

The third was the Office of Student Activities and Involvement. Here, Murray found her footing in student engagement services as a Peer Involvement Adviser and was able to grow in the Student Government Association.

And her final home, Murray said, is “all of campus.”

During her time at CMU, Murray became a well-known face as one of the most highly-involved students on campus. She’s even been awarded for her involvement, receiving the “Constellation Award” by the Office

Rosie Bauman | Staff Reporter Student Government Association’s Senate Leader Caroline Murray explains a proposed legislation change in the Bovee University Center Auditorium March 11.

of Student Activities and Involvement on April 23 for her leadership and “lasting legacy.”

While some students might find it difficult to stay involved with so many organizations, Murray said her involvement came naturally

throughout her time at CMU. “I think a lot of people assume when they look at my resume and what I’ve done, I just signed up for a thousand things and it happened,” Murray said. “That’s not the case. All of my involvements and opportunities

happened really organically through my other involvements.”

Although Murray serves as SGA’s senate leader and spearheaded SGA projects like the “Stamp Out Aggression” campaign, she never originally intended to join SGA. As a freshman, Murray was told that “hall council is the easiest way to get involved,” so she joined Program Board, thinking that Program Board was hall council. Then, she became an SGA representative for Program Board, thinking that SGA was hall council.

Although she was wrong in both cases, that didn’t stop her from joining the Calkins Hall council E-board or rising in SGA’s ranks; from an accidental SGA representative to RSO Growth and Development Committee Chair, SGA senator and senate leader. “(Murray’s) dedication to making a difference on campus in the lives of students allowed her to get them engaged with programming,” said SGA President Jake Hendricks. “She genuinely cares about fostering a positive, healthy campus community.”

Despite her numerous leadership roles, Murray said she is ardently

against “nametag collecting.”

“You can’t just be a nametag collector, who’s just going through life and doing things just because you want the title to put on your resume and grad school applications,” she said. “I’ve been lucky enough they’ve all had this theme of developing students.”

Murray said her “survival” comes down to acting with intentionality.

“For me, it’s remembering the ‘why’ behind everything I’m doing,” Murray said. “If I can look at something and remember why I joined that organization, my deeper purpose helps me stick with it.”

Murray is an economics major, and her original plan was to work as an analyst in the state legislature. After interning for the Michigan House of Representatives, Murray realized her real interest lies in student development.

“I have seldom done my involvements for myself,” Murray said.

Murray will attend Grand Valley State University next year, where she plans to earn a Master’s in higher education.

Earning financial freedom

CBA faculty member offers students advice on how to save money

By Hunter McLaren Staff Reporter news@cm-life.com

Finance faculty John Gawryk spoke was the bearer of bad news regarding the financial future of the Central Michigan University students gathered together at his presentation that was part of the “Journey to Financial Wellness” conference in mid-April.

“College is no longer a ticket to the middle class,” Gawryk said. “It’s a supply and demand issue.”

College degrees don’t have the same type of value as they did years ago, he explained, because so many people are going to college compared to previous years. Previously, having a bachelor’s degree helped job candidates get noticed. Now a job applicant who doesn’t have a university degree is the exception.

That doesn’t mean that investing in your future is a mistake, however.

According to data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, continuing education after high school makes sense in terms of earning potential.

Median weekly earnings in 2017 for workers who earned doctoral and professional degrees were at least triple those workers with less than a high school diploma. Workers who earned a bachelor’s degree earned more than the $907 median weekly earnings for all workers.

How much money new graduates have coming in and how much money is going out will greatly determine how Chippewas need to adjust their post-commencement budgets.

With commencement looming, Central Michigan Life sat down with Gawryk so he could share some advice to help students and graduates overcome student loan debt and achieve financial freedom.

WHAT TO DO WHILE IN COLLEGE Trying to make a budget in college can be difficult because many students’ income and expenses are very different from when they will graduate. Often students make very little and spend a lot on tuition, food and rent.

“It’s the complete opposite flip (than when you graduate),” Gawryk said. “It’s a cash flow out and not a very heavy cash flow in.”

Plymouth sophomore Kristen

Savannah Glasscock | Staff Photographer John Gawryk talks with a team during round three at the ERP Simulation in McGuirk Arena on Thursday, Feb. 14.

Bechtel wanted to get some financial advice so she can a head-start on her adjusting her finances after college.

“A lot of people don’t think that it is important because we are so young, but I feel like that’s how you can be successful,” Betchel said.

Having a budget in college can still be a good way to practice keeping track of income, expenses and selfdiscipline when spending after you graduate.

When it comes to loans, the best things current Chippewas can do is avoid them entirely and pay with cash.

However, Gawryk said he realizes this is not feasible for most students.

For everyone who needs to take out loans, the important number students should track is how much they owe, and not how much they borrow.

For example, Gawryk said he has seen students who borrowed $50,000 to go to school not think about how much they actually owe. Those students will be thinking about the $50,000 they borrowed instead of the fact that they may now owe closer to $60,000 because of interest.

That means having a plan to payback those loans early will actually save you money. One of the most common mistakes Gawryk sees is students who pay their minimum

required loan payments every month.

Taking more time to payoff your loans will add interest to your loan and ultimately cost you more.

“They get the payment and see they owe $300 a month,” he said. “They do what they think is right and pay $300 each month.”

Paying the minimum rate means borrowers will be making payments on the loan for a much longer time than if they paid more than the minimum. The longer borrowers are paying for a loan, the more interest they will accrue.

Student loans are amortized. This means that when borrowers start paying them back much of their money will go towards paying interest instead of the principal of the loan, or what they actually borrowed and owe. “(For example) that $50,000 loan you took out, after years of paying (the minimum payment) after ‘x’ amount of years, you could end up owing $60,000 dollars,” Gawryk said.

The key to avoid accruing large amount of interest is simple, Gawryk said. If students owe the bank $300 at the end of the month, they should (if possible) pay an additional $200 to $300 at the beginning of the month.

On the additional payment, write “pay to principal,” Gawryk said. This

will ensure that the extra payment is used to pay the principal of the loan and not the interest. By reducing the amount of principal owed on the loan, students will be compounding less and less interest on the loan.

The first priority for students after graduation should be paying off their student loan debt using the twopayment system.

This two-payment system will work to eliminate any kind of amortized loan, Gawryk said. This means it can also be used to pay off student loans, credit card debt, mortgages and car payments.

IS IT POSSIBLE TO OVERCOME MASSIVE DEBT? Even if a student’s financial situation seems nearly hopeless, Gawryk said almost everyone can overcome significant debt. Students who are in debt will have to practice a decrease in consumption. This could mean: • Delay buying a house • Buying older or used cars • Consider taking on a second job.

Some haven’t secured a job after college. To them debt seems overwhelming because they do not yet have a plan to pay back the debt and don’t have a significant amount of

money coming in.

After students graduate, they can start planning their finances more realistically because they will have more time to work a better, higher paying job than they might have had in college. Graduates need to make sure they aren’t spending money they don’t have first, Gawryk said. Students should avoid racking up credit card debt if they don’t have cash. “(Credit cards) should be used for an emergency,” he said. “Going to Applebee’s is not an emergency.”

When it comes to creating a budget, graduates should prioritize fixed costs: costs that are the same amount of money every month like rent, car payments and student loan payments.

Once those fixed costs are accounted for, graduates should start looking toward their financial future.

When employers offer a match on a 401k contribution it means they will contribute toward their employee’s retirement up to a defined limit. In order to get the most bang for their buck, graduates should aim to reach that employer match limit.

While it may be tempting to start saving later, and treating yourself today, it’s better to start funding your retirement plan sooner rather than later.

“The sooner you start saving, the less risk you’ll have to take on and you can invest at a lower risk,” Gawryk said.

Investing those retirement dollars by using a lower risk strategy is a much “safer” way to plan for the future. While your investment may not compound a lot of interest quickly, there is also a much lower chance of your money losing value.

Before investing, Gawryk said his personal rule of thumb is to put around $5,000 in the bank. Money in the bank is liquid – that means it can be taken out for emergencies with no penalties or delays. That is not the case with brokerage accounts or a 401k.

Once that money is in the bank, Gawryk said his personal advice is that graduates should invest in mutual funds through a brokerage account. With a budget, loans paid off, money in the bank and investments graduates can achieve financial stability and freedom. Do the work now, he advises, and you can treat yourself later.

Norris shares discusses awards, experience with photojournalism

By Makayla Coffee Staff Reporter

that adrenaline every single day as a photojournalist.

news@cm-life.com

If you could pick your favorite thing about photography, what would you say that would be?

Sometimes, it feels like a super power. Like sometimes I wonder how other people view the world, because when I look around I’ll notice the light coming in from the window and I’ll be seeing (potential) photos. Being able to translate that into photos and knowing that I can see things that maybe not everybody can see, and then I get to share things that I see with people via photography, that’s pretty amazing.

Saginaw senior Josephine Norris captures more than just photos through the lens of a camera – she tries to capture the world in a different light.

Norris received the 2019 Reid Blackburn scholarship from the National Press Photographers Foundation, a $2,000 scholarship awarded by a panel of professional photojournalists. She also has been recognized as a semifinalist of the 2019 Hearst Photojournalism award, the 2017 College Photographer of the Year for the Michigan Press Photographer Association and runner-up in 2016 and 2018.

She was homeschooled before attending college. Through homeschooling, Norris found a way to take a photography class at the age of 12, which began her journey finding her way to photojournalism.

Over time, Norris worked her way into the professional world through internships at The Saginaw News, The Tennessean in Nashville,

Tennessee and the San Antonio Express-News in San Antonio, Texas.

Central Michigan Life spoke with Norris to learn about her experiences with photojournalism and what led her to that career.

When did you discover photojournalism was for you?

Norris: I had this moment, I was photographing the (Saginaw County Fair) rodeo and pictures were just coming together. I just felt alive. I realized that I could feel

Go ahead and chill...

Is there a favorite subject you’ve photographed?

There is a lot, but I will say some of the work that had a big impact on me was a project I started last year looking at what it means to be black and male in the United States.

I photographed four different CMU students and followed them from the moment they woke up, to the moment they went to bed, looking at what their experiences were being

black in the United States.

That was kind of the first time I really had deep connections with who I was photographing and in a short time we developed these relationships that allowed me to make really meaningful work.

What would you say has been the biggest thing you have realized over the years with photojournalism?

Definitely knowing how to foster connections with people and really embracing that connection. When I first started, I thought there has to be distance between you and the person you’re photographing and you have to stay professional, but I’ve come to realize that’s kind of impossible. Likes yes, there are ethics to follow and ethics you need to hold as a journalist, but you have to make yourself vulnerable.

Something I started doing within the last couple of years was whatever question I asked the person I’m photographing, I also have that answer myself for them. You have to have a connection with the people you’re photographing in order to really document their story, truly.

After four years of studying, Match Day seems like the final pay-off for medical students.

On Match Day, which took place in March, Central Michigan University’s medical students found out where they will be practicing medicine for the next three to eight years of their lives in residency.

Now that Match Day has passed, students are looking forward to graduation and moving across the state or country to begin their residency. Beginning this next step can be intimidating, but each CMU medical student has their own reason for continuing to pursue this career.

WORKING FOR T HE UNDER SERVED Fourth-year Cincinnati, Ohio medical student Katherine Roach was working in the Milwaukee Public School system as a science teacher when she realized she may be called to do something else.

While working with KATHERINE under served students, she ROACH noticed many kids didn’t have healthcare and would consequently have to go to the emergency room whenever they got sick. She saw that when a student couldn’t get treatment for a preexisting condition, like asthma, it would keep them out of school for days, if not weeks.

“I felt really helpless,” Roach said. “I couldn’t do anything when these kids were sick at home because they couldn’t get healthcare.”

That’s when Roach decided that she wanted to transition from being a teacher to a doctor so she could help under served communities like her students.

Four years later, she will soon begin her residency at New York University in emergency medicine, where she hopes to help individuals whose only option is to go to the emergency room for healthcare.

SERVING OUR NATION Even as a girl, fourth-year Tucson, Arizona medical student Hillary Cullison always loved serving others. For a while, she couldn’t figure out how she could both serve people and be a doctor. That

was when it dawned on Cullison that she could be a doctor in the army.

After completing medical school and training for the army, Cullison will begin her residency in June at Fort Hood HILLARY near Austin, Texas in family CULLISON medicine. This was her first choice.

“Women are underrepresented in a lot of areas, but particularly in the army,” Cullison said. “I want them to feel like they have a safe place to get healthcare.”

Cullison explained that most doctors in the army will stay in the United States and take care of active military members and their families. She hopes she can be deployed at least twice in her career and work as a doctor in a war zone.

RELYING ON FAIT H Going through medical school while raising three kids would be no easy task for some, but Saginaw medical student Bradley Demijohn managed to make it work. It’s all thanks to his faith, he said.

“We pretty much cover BRADLEY everything with DEMIJOHN prayer these days, and I don’t think that we would have gotten through these last few years without our faith,” Demijohn said.

Prior to medical school, Demijohn was a nurse, but he wanted to be the leader of the team in the hospital. One thing Demijohn really loved about nursing was being able to connect with his patients in psychiatry.

“I just immediately found that there was a level of connection with my patients in psychiatry that was unparalleled in other areas of medicine,” Demijohn said.

He will begin his residency in June at Pine Rest Christian Mental Health Services in Grand Rapids for psychiatry.

What will you miss most about running the MAC Scholarship?

I’m going to miss students the most. Relationships and consistency is everything to me, so being able to have complete access to my students and them having complete access to me is going to be the most difficult part.

Why do you feel that now is the right time to make this change?

When the job opportunity came up I just felt the push to do it. After finishing this year, it would’ve been close to four years as a professional.

It’s time for a new challenge. I

preach to my students all the time that they need to reach for the stars and reach their highest potential. If I don’t do that, then I’m a hypocrite.

What changes do you plan on making to Leadership Safari?

The change is my personality and my presence. I’m going to bring a new flavor and a new set of eyes.

Just because I’m African-American doesn’t mean that it’s going to be more diverse there. It’s the way I live, it’s the way I operate, it’s the way I love my students and being a diverse person just happens to be a part of that.

What are you looking forward to most about Leadership Safari?

The thing I’m looking forward to the most is access to more students.

When I officially move into my new job, I’m not going to stop the relationships I already have. I get to meet new students that otherwise probably wouldn’t have come to my office to see me and I look forward to that.
