MSU Involvement Guide by Morehead State University

Guide to

CAM PUS INVO LVEM ENT YOU ARE THE PROFESSOR

CURRICULUM OF INVOLVEMENT

Learning is the central reason students attend college. Learning comes not just from classroom instruction, but also from daily interactions between people. The difference between the two avenues of learning—classroom and personal exchange—is that classroom learning is given to you by professors in a formal class. Learning from personal interactions comes from your own experiences—you are your own professor outside the classroom and you learn from the relationships you create.

One of the best aspects of being your own professor is you can invest your time in things you enjoy. MSU has a broad range of involvement opportunities and you can pick and choose a “curriculum” of activities that meets your interests. A wise professor knows he or she should provide challenges in his or her lessons. Classes, just like life, present challenges; and while you should build a curriculum of involvement around your likes, you should make an effort to do things that are new to you. Whether it is going to see a play, joining a club whose mission is outside your field of study, or pushing yourself to be an officer in any organization, you should always add challenge to your personal curriculum.

This guide will help make being your own professor easier—so you can find venues to meet others, be involved and experience the full range of learning that college offers. Think of this guide as your textbook for involvement. It has important information, just like textbooks in classes. But in a classroom the text is only a starting point for learning; the lectures and labs are where the real education begins. The real education from interacting with others won’t come from this guide, but in actually using it to meet others.

The Guide to Campus Involvement can help you craft a curriculum that’s fun, that meets your interests, but also offers challenge so you’ll get the most comprehensive experience interacting with others.

GOOD LUCK!

Just as students must invest time in their class work to be successful academically, they also must invest time in their interactions with others to be successful personally. Being involved, therefore, isn’t a trivial part of college—it is central to it, because it’s a form of learning. It should never outweigh your classroom activity, rather complement it.

A Note on Employment Opportunities

Both forms of learning—in class and out of class—are crucial to leaving Morehead State University as a fully educated person.

MSU employs hundreds of students across campus through the student employment program. There are two types of student employment, “federal” and “institutional.” Students can be employed in only one type at a time. If looking for an employment position, students should view jobs posted on JobLink at www.moreheadstate.edu.

Starting a Student Organization

If you are interested in starting a student organization, contact the Office of Student Activities at (606) 783-2071 and set up an appointment with a staff member to go over the process. It’s simple!

Undergraduate fellowships are also available in some departments. These positions involve working directly with faculty, usually doing research. Graduate assistantships (GA) are available to students who have been unconditionally admitted to a graduate degree program. These assistantships provide a stipend of $10,000 for the academic year, paid in installments twice monthly. A graduate assistant must be a full-time student (nine credit hours, minimum) working on a degree program. The student must maintain a 3.0 GPA, taking no more than 13 hours each semester. The student is expected to devote a minimum of 10 hours (half assistantship), but no more than 20 hours (full) per week to the duties of the assistantship, depending on the departmental GA assignment. All recipients must pay the regular Kentucky resident tuition and incidental fees. Tuition waivers are available for out-ofstate students to reduce tuition fees to in-state rates. In-state students are responsible for all tuition/fees incurred. To inquire about graduate assistant positions, call the department/college or the Office of Graduate Programs at (606) 783-2039.

Student Activities Programs Cocurricular Extravaganza With over 100 student organizations on campus, MSU has something for everyone. At this extravaganza, student organizations set up booths to promote themselves to the campus community.

The Emerging Leaders Symposium is a campus-wide leadership conference designed to give students a daylong, professional-level series of events to introduce them to concepts of leadership, make them aware of other leadership opportunities on campus and give them a chance to network with community leaders and fellow students. Students identified as “emerging leaders” by faculty and staff from across campus are nominated to attend. Students who accept the nomination attend this free program every February. Leading Edge Leading Edge participants are a select group of students who participate in a structured yearlong experience designed to develop their leadership skills. Participation is limited to a select 20 participants a year. The program is open to sophomores or juniors with a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.75. Students participate in a series of activities designed to enhance leadership skills as well as to provide them with networking opportunities with individuals throughout campus and the state of Kentucky in their fields of interest. Tunnel of Oppression The Tunnel of Oppression is an annual program designed to help visitors understand issues of racism, homophobia, classism and religious oppression. The tunnel is set up like a museum, with images, literature and videos describing the impact of intolerance on people in a frank and clear way. Student Activities gives participants the opportunity to see, touch, hear and feel the realities of oppression as a stepping stone toward creating diversity awareness.

EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES Student Activities employs two to four students a year. Standard student employment requirements apply, however; in addition, voting members of SGA, NPHC, IFC, PHC or the Residence Hall Association cannot be employed in the office as student employees. It is allowable to be an officer in student organizations while being a student employee in this office. OSA also employs one graduate assistant at 20 hours per week.

RESERVE OFFICERS’ TRAINING CORPS (ROTC) (606) 783-5256 Button Hall www.moreheadstate.edu/military The Department of Military Science provides leadership and management training to enrolled students, allowing them to excel in challenging and rewarding environments. Army ROTC is one of the most prestigious and recognized leadership courses in the country and is part of the college curriculum. During classes and field training, students learn first-hand what it takes to lead others, motivate groups and how to conduct missions as an officer in the Army. ROTC prepares students with the tools, training and experiences that will help them succeed in any competitive environment. Military science classes involve development in individual leadership, group problem solving activities, and several out-of-classroom labs, including such activities as rappelling, rifle marksmanship, obstacle courses and land navigation. These classes and opportunities are open to anyone. However, those students wishing to pursue a military career will enjoy many financial incentives, adventure training (airborne school, air assault, and mountain warfare) and will become commissioned officers in their choice of Active Duty Army, U.S. Army Reserves, or the National Guard. Scholarship Opportunity Army ROTC offers a competitive scholarship which covers full tuition, books and fees and provides a monthly stipend. As an incentive to attend Morehead State University, the campus offers limited programs to cover meal plan and room-and-board expenses for the freshman year. Army ROTC also partners with the U.S. Army Reserve and National Guard to aid students who have already enlisted in those components to help them become officers. Army officers receive pay and benefits which normally exceed that of their peers.
