Memorial Day History Explains Origins Of National Holiday

hree years after the Civil War ended, on May 5, 1868, the head of an organization of Union veterans — the Grand Army of the Republic (GAR) — established Decoration Day as a time for the nation to decorate the graves of the war dead with flowers. Maj. Gen. John A. Logan declared that Decoration Day should be observed on May 30. It is believed that date was chosen because flowers would be in bloom all over the country. The first large observance was held that year at Arlington National Cemetery, across the Potomac River from Washington, D.C. The ceremonies centered around the mourning-draped veranda of the Arlington mansion, once the home of Gen. Robert E. Lee. Various Washington officials, including Gen. and Mrs. Ulysses S. Grant, presided over the ceremoTES

nies. After speeches, children from the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Orphan Home and members of the GAR made their way through the cemetery, strewing flowers on both Union and Confederate graves, reciting prayers and singing hymns. Local Observances Claim To Be First Local springtime tributes to the Civil War dead already had been held in various places. One of the first occurred in Columbus, Miss., April 25, 1866, when a group of women visited a cemetery to decorate the graves of Confederate soldiers who had fallen in battle at Shiloh. Nearby were the graves of Union soldiers, neglected because they were the enemy. Disturbed at the sight of the bare graves, the women placed some of their flowers on those graves, as well. Today, cities in the north and the south claim to be the birthplace of Memorial Day INSUR

in 1866. Both Macon and Columbus, Ga., claim the title, as well as Richmond, Va. The village of Boalsburg, Pa., claims it began there two years earlier. A stone in a Carbondale, Ill., cemetery carries the statement that the first Decoration Day ceremony took place there on April 29, 1866. Carbondale was the wartime home of Gen. Logan. Approximately 25 places have been named

Memorial Day History Explains... continued from page 2 veterans who had fought in the Civil War. Businesses closed and residents flew flags at half-staff. Supporters of Waterloo’s claim say earlier observances in other places were informal, not community-wide or onetime events. By the end of the 19th century, Memorial Day ceremonies were being held on May 30 throughout the nation. State legislatures passed proclamations designating the day, and the Army and Navy adopted regulations for proper observance at their facilities.

It was not until after World War I, however, that the day was expanded to honor those who have died in all American wars. In 1971, Memorial Day was declared a national holiday by an act of Congress, though it is still often called Decoration Day. It was then also placed on the last Monday in May, as were some other federal holidays. Some States Have Confederate Observances Many Southern states also have their own days for honoring the Confederate dead. Mississippi celebrates Confederate Memo-

rial Day on the last Monday of April, Alabama on the fourth Monday of April, and Georgia on April 26. North and South Carolina observe it on May 10, Louisiana on June 3 and Tennessee calls that date Confederate Decoration Day. Texas celebrates Confederate Heroes Day January 19 and Virginia calls the last Monday in May Confederate Memorial Day. Gen. Logan’s order for his posts to decorate graves in 1868 “with the choicest flowers of springtime” urged: “We should guard their graves with sacred vig-

ilance. ... Let pleasant paths invite the coming and going of reverent visitors and fond mourners. Let no neglect, no ravages of time, testify to the present or to the coming generations that we have forgotten as a people the cost of a free and undivided republic.” The crowd attending the first Memorial Day ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery was approximately the same size as those that attend today’s observance, about 5,000 people. Then, as now, small American flags were placed on each grave — a tradition followed at many national cemeteries today. In recent years, the custom has grown in many families to decorate the graves of all departed loved ones. The origins of special

services to honor those who die in war can be found in antiquity. The Athenian leader Pericles offered a tribute to the fallen heroes of the Peloponnesian War more than 24 centuries ago that could be applied today to the 1.1 million Americans who have died in the nation’s wars: “Not only are they commemorated by columns and inscriptions, but there dwells also an unwritten memorial of them, graven not on stone but in the hearts of men.” To ensure the sacrifices of America’s fallen heroes are never forgotten, in December 2000, the U.S. Congress passed and the president signed into law “The National Moment of Remembrance Act,” P.L. 106-579, creating the White House Commission on the

National Moment of Remembrance. The commission’s charter is to “encourage the people of the United States to give something back to their country, which provides them so much freedom and opportunity” by encouraging and coordinating commemorations in the United States of Memorial Day and the National Moment of Remembrance. The National Moment of Remembrance encourages all Americans to pause wherever they are at 3 p.m. local time on Memorial Day for a minute of silence to remember and honor those who have died in service to the nation. As Moment of Remembrance founder Carmella LaSpada states: “It’s a way we can all help put the memorial back in Memorial Day.”

By Stefanie Sears unning the ESL Program as a volunteer at the Livingston Public Library since 2010, Steve Werdenschlag was recently recognized by the Livingston Library Trustees. The organization recognized this dedicated leader on April 19 at its bi-yearly ESL Recognition get together event for the library’s ESL instructors. Werdenschlag says that his original reason for joining the program was to just spend time with his wife Sandy. “My wife Sandy and I both retired,” he says. “We agreed we would do things together, ‘good’ things,” says Werdenschlag. “She discovered the Livingston Library’s ESL Program.

She had been a teacher all her life; no sweat for her. I had been a computer geek; had never taught. So I went along with her, just for togetherness. At that time, there were 10 teachers, 20 students, and the program was administered by one of the librarians. Our training was watching a canned six-hour videotape from the Literacy Volunteers of America, pedantic and filled with educationese. We each started with three students. I was the only guy in the program, so I got away with stumbling through it, without having to do things by the book.” Around 2006, the program’s librarian administrator had left, but the program continued on nonetheless. However, during this period there was also a reduction in

the number of teachers and students. The instructors had gone from 10 to fiveWerdenschlag, his wife, and three others- and the students decreased from 20 to leaving three students each for Steve and Sandy plus four other pupils. “By that time, I had learned how different ‘English as a second language’ and ‘English as a foreign language’ were from each other,” says Werdenschlag, “You use English as a second language in your everyday life, even with your family. You use English as a foreign language only in the classroom.” In 2010, a library trustee approached Werdenschlag for outside funding ideas. The ESL Program was too small to qualify for a grant, so they were in need of cre-

ative ways to recruit more teachers. Werdenschlag proposed his ideas, which involved improving the instructor training by interacting face to face with Werdenschlag as opposed to watching a videotape and

having prospective teachers sit in on current classes, at a trustees meeting. They immediately gave him permission to follow through with his plans. He did so, and the program increased its numbers to 30 teachers

and 60 students in just three months. “I’ve been leading the program ever since,” says Werdenschlag, “Learning from my own mistakes. We’ve kind of plateau’d at continued on page 7

Some meet in a mutually agreed upon offsite locations, such as their homes. Class activities focus on conversational skills, such as parent-teacher conferences, or a trip to the mall or supermarket. Others include reading and discussing novels, romance and mysteries, acting out plays, or singing popular songs like pop and country. Some of the students’ favorite books are Kathryn Stockett’s “The Help,” Jeannette Walls’s “The Glass Castle,”

and Harper Lee’s “To Kill a Mockingbird.” Students consist of adult Livingston residents. One class in particular incorporates mixed ethnicities that reflect Livingston’s demographics. One student is Asian, one is Latina and one is Russian. “It works when they’re all at the same level, [beginner/intermediate/advanced], because they have the same problems in English, the same embarrassments in English. But they’ve got to speak English to each other,” says Werdenschlag. The other ESL teachers joined the program because, like Steve and Sandy, they wanted to do good things and remained because of their enjoyment with it. Stu-

dents usually enter the program with limited English, so therefore communicating with others is a struggle for them, such as socializing with neighbors and attending their children’s Little League games or Girl Scout meetings. But with the help of Werdenschlag and his team, they have learned to talk with each other. “Some of our students have moved successfully into jobs,” says Werdenschlag, “But what’s most rewarding for me is when they lose their insularity, when they finally feel they ‘belong,’ when they initiate a social transaction with someone on their block whose native language is different, and say, ‘hi, neighbor.’”

New Animal Control Vehicle Donated To LPD

By Cheryl Conway tray and lost animals will be transported in a much more reliable vehicle and it is not costing taxpayers in Livingston any extra money. Thanks to the efforts by the Friends of the Livingston Animal Shelter and a donation from the Ralph Errington Charitable Foundation, a new Animal Control Vehicle was recently purchased and donated to the Livingston Police Department, which also handles animal control in town. On March 9, a 2016 Ford Super Duty fourwheel drive super-cab was donated to be outfitted for animal control. It replaces a 30-year old van which

was no longer operable. The donation is definitely “one of the better gifts the town got,” says Sgt. John Drumm of the Livingston Police Department and supervisor of Animal Control, traffic and training. It’s “something the town definitely needed.” Drumm, who has been with the LPD for the past 28 years, says “we had a van,” a 30 year old Animal Control Van but “it was way too old. It was outdated, constantly breaking down.” Over the years the Ford van’s motor had been replaced but “it wasn’t serviceable anymore,” says Drumm. Left without a van for six months, Drumm

was relying on an SUV with enough room for just two cages for animals. The SUV will still be used for the Trap Neuter Return program, says Drumm. The new Animal Control Truck, called Errington Express, has air conditioning and heat in the back to keep animals comfortable during transport as well as seven cages on each side and a lift, or dead box, to remove dead animals of the road, says Alan Karpas of Livingston, volunteer of the Friends of the Livingston Animal Shelter. The Friends of the Livingston Animal Shelter is a committee affiliated with the Healthy Community Healthy Youth Initiative,

of Vehicles Chris Southworth designed the truck in consultation with other municipalities, according to a press release. The new Animal Control features meet all code requirements of the State of New Jersey and the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. The truck includes multiple cage compartments with heat and air conditioning – some with automatic lifts, a major back tail gate lift designed to pick up animals, and a special receptacle for the animals. Four animals had been picked up as of press time. Drumm says the old vehicle had picked up “thousands in 30 years,” averaging about three to four

dogs a months. Livingston started its TNR program three years ago to control the cat population, says Drumm. Last year, about 30 cats went through the TNR program. Work began last November to rebuild the 35year old shelter for the dogs and a trailer for the cats. “The old shelter was rundown,” says Drumm, and is need of new walls and floors, drainage, isolation room, block work and cement work to replace the grass with concrete. The old shelter could fit six dogs; the upgraded shelter will be able to accommodate 14 total. There will also be a separate area for the TNR cats

he says, as you “can’t put feral and healthy cats together.” Cost of the upgraded shelter will cost up to $160,000 and should be completed by the end of the year, says Drumm. “We will gladly take donations to help us,” he says. The third annual Pet Adoption Expo is set for Sat., June 17, from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. at the Shoppes at the Livingston Circle, Livingston. Adopt a new pet and help to support local animal shelters and rescue groups. For more information, go to petexpolivnj@gmail. com.

More Than A Century Later, Electric Cars Come Full Circle At Thomas Edison National Park

By Jennifer Walkup brand new electric car charging station opened at Thomas Edison National Park in West Orange on April 19. More than a century after inventor Thomas Edison parked his own 1914 Detroit Electric car at his factory on Main Street, a new technological innovation was implemented with the installation of this electric car charging station. This project was made possible by a partnership between the National Park Service, the National Park Foundation, the US Energy Department and BMW. One hundred electric charging stations will be installed in national parks throughout the country. “The partnership between The National Park Service, National Park Foundation, BMW, and the Department of Energy made this possible,” said Thomas Ross, National Park Service superintendent. “This will allow electric cars to travel to and around national parks.” The partnership aims to get more electric vehicles

into national parks, rather than relegating electric vehicles to urban areas where charge stations are more easily accessible. This project fosters electric vehicle travel and will raise awareness about electric vehicle technology and plug-in electric vehicles for millions of park visitors. This project will reduce air pollution in national parks and gateway communities. “We are interested in supporting both electric cars as well as having a positive impact on the environment,” said Ross. “Having the charging stations in the parks will support that. Some parks are many miles of roadways. At this time, we do not have the infrastructure to support electric vehicles in those places. This will change that.” The electric vehicle charging station in West Orange is located in the laboratory complex’s visitor parking area. The program’s first charging station installation was chosen for the Thomas Edison National Park because of Edison’s inventive nature and his work with electric cars.

“We were proud to launch the national program here in West Orange,” said Ross. “We have two level-two charging stations at the laboratory complex on Main Street. There is a great historical connection. Thomas Edison was very interested in electric cars. It really has come full circle.” In the mid-1890s, Edison worked on an electric storage battery for use in electric cars. The park has three of his electric cars in its collection, two Detroit electric vehicles from 1913 and a loco mobile from 1905 which was converted from steam to electric. At Glenmont, Edison’s home, which is also open to visitors, Edison’s own original car charging station resides in the garage. This charging station was built by Edison in 1904. “We want to offer the charging station to visitors of the park but also to our community in West Orange,” said Ross. “We worked closely with the town and with the West Orange environmental committee as well.” Most stations are two to

three miles away in Montclair and near Turtleback Zoo. This new charging station is right in the center of town on Main Street and also near route 280. Courtesy of BMW, the charging station at the Thomas Edison site will operate for free for the first six months.

The program will continue to add electric car charging stations throughout national parks during the next two years. They will determine where to install the charging stations based on the strength and proximity of local electric car markets, the location

of other nearby charging stations, as well as various considerations regarding the landscape of the parks. This partnership supports the National Park Foundation’s Centennial Campaign for America’s National Parks which aims continued on page 15

Caldwell University Honors Two Professionals At Scholarship Gala

aldwell University honored two distinguished professionals at its Presidential Scholarship Gala on Fri., April 21 at Mayfair Farms in West Orange. The honorees were Philanthropist Michael Kambourakis and Founding Partner of Artisan Wealth Management Edward R. Collins ’98. The Gala is the signature fundraising event for Caldwell University and helps fund scholarships for deserving students. Kambourakis was integral to the founding of two nonprofits – the SEARCH Day Program in Ocean and the Dominican Republic Relief Organization. He began serving the community 20 years ago as a rotarian.

he real estate market will always have its ups and downs, but real estate is an oft-profitable investment. Real estate investors do their investing for various reasons. Some see a house as a place to hang their hats for years and years, while others look at properties as nothing more than investments. Buying a home with the intent to fix it up and resell it is called a “fix and flip.” In such situations, investors buy homes at below-market prices before refurbishing the homes with the goal of recouping their initial investment and then some when the homes are ultimately put back on the market. Flipping has become popular for both expert remodelers and novice investors. RealtyTrac®,

How To Transform A Fixer-Upper

the nation’s leading source for comprehensive housing data, noted in its “Year-End and Q4 2015 U.S. Home Flipping” report that 5.5 percent of all single family home and condo sales during the year were flipped properties. This marked an increase from the same time the previous year. Investing in a fixer-upper requires a leap of faith and a vision of what the home can look like in the future. Turning a real estate lemon into lemonade requires certain skills and a good measure of patience. The following are some guidelines to get anyone started. • Don’t bite off more than you can chew. Make an honest assessment of your abilities and which renovations, if any, you can

handle. If you are unskilled or inexperienced working with your hands, then it can be easy for an investment property to quickly become a money pit. Before purchasing a property, hire a trained home inspector to tour the home with you and point out all of the areas that will need renovation. With this list, begin getting estimates on how much money the work will entail. Determine if this fits with your budget or not. You do not want to invest so much that it exceeds what you could feasibly recoup when it comes time to sell. • Overlook cosmetic things when visiting properties. Cosmetic issues include all of the easily replaceable items in a home, such as carpeting, appliances, interior paint colors

and cabinetry. Focus on the bones of the house — the architectural integrity and those little touches that you envision having a “wow” factor. • Seek the help of experts. Some flippers think they’ll save the most money by doing all of the work themselves. This isn’t always the case. Professional architects, designers and contractors may help you save money. Contractors have an intimate knowledge of where to buy materials and may be able to negotiate prices based on wholesale or trade costs. In addition, experts can help you avoid common pitfalls because they’ve already done this type of work time and again. It’s smart to rely on expert advice, even if it means investing a little bit

more. • Save money by doing some work yourself. While the pros may tackle the more complex parts of a given project, such as rewiring electricity or changing the footprint of a home, you can still be involved. Ask to participate in demolition, such as taking down walls or removing old materials from the home. Such participation may be fun, and it can save you substantial amounts of money on labor. • Recognize that not everything must be completely redone. Realize that, in some instances, a coat of paint and some new accents may be all you need to transform a space. For example, if kitchen cabinets are in good condition, see if they can be refaced or

painted instead of replaced entirely. Install new door pulls/handles to add visual interest. Look for some ready-made items, such as bookshelves, instead of installing custom carpentry. • Think about what the buyer wants and not what you want. Renovate with an eye toward prospective buyers’ needs. Keep things neutral and accommodating. Research the latest trends to understand what buyers might be seeking in a home. You want potential buyers to envision themselves moving right in. Renovating a fixer-upper takes time, but it can be a worthwhile project, and one that can help anyone turn a profit in a booming real estate market.

Millburn Woman Records Testimonies Of Terminally Ill To Pass On Memories To Loved Ones

By Ann Marie Barron erry Glass of Millburn spends most of her days piecing together priceless memories for others to leave behind. Through her brainchild, Memories Live, a not-forprofit enterprise she runs independently in Millburn, she helps terminally ill people capture their experiences, personalities and wisdom through custom-made movies they can pass on to their loved ones. “It’s an opportunity for them to leave a piece of themselves behind, to share their personal history and family history and tell about what made them into who they are,’’ says Glass, 44, who holds a bachelor’s

degree in fine arts with a focus on videography and photography and a minor in psychology from Rutgers University as well as a master’s degree in art therapy from Pratt Institute, New York City. The idea was hatched when a young mother in a neighboring community died of lung cancer, leaving behind a husband and children under the age of five. “It struck me, as a mother of young kids, that these kids would never know the sound of their mom’s voice,’’ Glass says. “They’d never know advice she had to share. I thought, ‘what if I could help people leave a piece of themselves behind?’’’

She then reached out to a friend who had lost his mother when he was young. What did he think of the idea? He said it would have been a wonderful thing to have and he wished he’d had something like that to remember his mother by, she recalled. A few calls to area hospitals, hospices, nursing homes in the Millburn area, and Memories Live began. That was more than six years ago. Now a full-time job for Glass, most of the work gets done while her two children are in school, during evenings and on weekends. When she first began, she handed subjects a 20page questionnaire, though

people told her it was a bit too much. “Now I have one page of questions for them,’’ she says. “I have all those other questions in my head, so it’s not so overwhelming.’’ Her clients’ average age is 55, and the youngest subject she’s filmed was 22 years old. “I really only offer this to adults,’’ she says, noting that it is most valuable to those who are leaving behind very young family members. “It’s for the child who didn’t’ get to know their parents,’’ she says. “They may see parts of their parents in themselves that they might not have been able to see, a dimple, the way

tor’s note,’’ she says. “I just go with ‘”honesty is the best policy.’’’ Glass said she’s willing to travel anywhere within a two-hour radius of her Millburn home. She funds her enterprise through grants, donations and an annual fundraiser, which took place last month. There is no charge for her service. When she sits down with a subject, usually in their home, the conversation is wide-ranging. “We’ll start talking about grandparents, memories of grandparents,’’ Glass explains. “Then, we’ll talk about their childhood, fond memories, schooling, college and advice for high school, advice for them to share about college, about your first job interview. We

touch on every stage of life. Then, I’ll ask them about what makes them, them – favorite foods, season, music, holiday - all the things that mold them into who they are.’’ Glass then spends hours combining the interview footage with music and family photos, creating a meaningful movie. The final product is delivered to the family in DVD format. The job can be at times painful and emotionally draining, she admits. “It affects me if I’m sitting across the camera from someone my age who has kids my kids’ age,’’ she says. “But, I walk into these people’s homes as a stranger and I leave as a friend. It’s really rewarding,

and people are so grateful that the good outweighs the bad.’’ Glass is hoping to acquire some funding through a contest she entered with a local Keller Williams Real Estate Agency, which is offering to donate proceeds from their 100th home sale to a local charity. Twelve non-profits are competing for $20,000 in prize money, to be divided among the top vote getters in an online contest. To vote for Memories Live, visit sueadler. com. Anyone interested in having a movie made, should call 646-245-1698; email Glass at Kerry. glass@memorieslive.org; or visit the website, www. memorieslive.org.

by Frank Minutolo he Coach is a new column that will be run monthly for business owners and individuals working for companies who want to continue learning so they can advance their careers. The publishers believe that independent businesses are one of the most important factors in our country’s job growth and economic success. Some of the areas we will be covering in this column are: Problem Solving, Goal Setting, Increasing Sales, Motivation, Time Management, etc. If you have an area you would like addressed or have a question now you can ask Frank Minutolo, The Coach, by emailing him at tsg973@ aol.com. The topic for to-

day is Problem Solving. Problem solving- must be written and not verbal. We have a specific approach to problem solving that I would like to share with you. When there is a problem it is important to be specific. Anyone in the company claiming there is a problem needs to follow this procedure in detail. What is the problem? Explain with specifics. The most important step in problem solving is defining the problem properly. This is the most critical step. The problem must be clearly defined and oftentimes doing this leads to the resolution. In defining the problem we should explore all possible causes of the problem. Do not just list the

The Coach

symptoms but look deeply for the “root cause” of the problem. This oftentimes requires a detailed analysis of the situation. How does it affect our business? Does it have a material effect on our business? How? Is it something that is a personal annoyance to you as opposed to a business problem? Can we quantify it? How do we measure it? What is the dollar impact? If it’s time we are talking about, how much time? Once you have done this then we expect you to explore solutions and list them. Don’t stop at one but list all the possible solutions you can think of. Do not jump to an obvious conclusion. Take time to list

all possible solutions. Once this is done you can then determine which are the best solutions for the problem at hand. Final step: Which solution would you recommend and why? How to implement solu-

tions? What is needed to implement the solution? Do you have the resources to put this idea into action? If it cannot be implemented then there is no reason to pursue it. Test the solution. If we put a solution in

place, what are the negative results that can come from it? Sometimes the reaction or response to a solution may create another problem. This has to be considered. When this is complete and you have the best solution…Do it!

Impact 100 Garden State To Share $282,000 In Grants

mpact 100 Garden State, a philanthropic women’s organization, has raised a record-breaking $282,000, which will be awarded to two nonprofit organizations in Morris, Passaic, Somerset and Sussex counties in amounts of $141,000 each. Consisting of 282 volunteers who have donated $1,000 each, Impact 100 Garden State was the eleventh to join a nationwide network of 39 such groups throughout the United States. The grant application and requirements are posted on the Impact 100 Garden State website www. impact100gardenstate.org. Grant finalists will present their programs to the Impact 100 Garden State

membership at its Annual Awards Meeting Nov. 8 at the Olde Mill Inn, Basking Ridge. Members will then vote for the two grant recipients. Now in its fifth year of collaborative giving, it will have funded more than $1 million in transformative grants by year’s end. In her presentation at the Frelinghuysen Arboretum before an audience of 200 members and nonprofit guests, President Merle Johnson recalled the words of Helen Keller by saying, “Alone we can do so little, together we can do so much.” Her message resonated with everyone, especially Rosemary Gilmartin, executive director of the Interfaith Food Pantry, whose

organization received a $100,000 grant in 2016. Gilmartin was a recipient last year, but, in a reversal of roles, she and three additional members of the Interfaith Food Pantry staff and board have become members of Impact. “This is bigger than us,” said Gilmartin. “We can talk to like-minded, intelligent women and use our skills help more people beyond the range of the food pantry.” Stuart Wiet, Wendy Potkay and Chris MacDonald all said they look forward to serving on a grant’s committee Impact 100 Garden State is a Special Project Fund of the Community Foundation of New Jersey. Established in 1979, the Community

Grant Chairs Donna McNamara, left, of Morristown, and Storm Rose, of Wharton, display the blank check awaiting one recipient after the grant process and voting is completed on Nov. 8.

tan or brown color and protects the skin from some of the harmful effects of the sun. The ACS notes that most melanoma cells still make melanin, and when that occurs the melanoma tumors are typically brown or black. When melanomas do not make melanin, the tumors may appear pink, tan

or white. Melanomas can develop anywhere on the skin, but they are more likely to develop in certain areas depending on a person’s gender. For men, melanomas are most likely to develop on the chest or trunk, while women who develop melanomas are most likely to get them on their legs.

CCM Receives National Recognition For Cyber Defense Education

ep. Rodney Frelinghusen joined freeholders and members of the County College of Morris community when the school recently celebrated its designation as a National Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense Education. CCM is the only community college in New Jersey listed as a National Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense Education (CAE-CDE 2Y) by the National Security Agency and Department of Homeland Security. The designation recognizes CCM as an institution with a proven track record for information security education and awareness. Only 41 community col-

leges across the country, or fewer than three percent, hold the same designation. To obtain the designation, CCM needed to demonstrate that its cyber security curriculum is aligned with national standards, that the college contributes to providing a pipeline of professionals who can assist with protecting against cyber-attacks and that it is a resource for the community in the area of information security. CCM offers an associate’s degree in applied science in information technology with both a digital forensics and information security track, along with a certificate program in information security. Also offered is an associate’s de-

gree in science in criminal justice with a specialization in computer forensics. In 2015, the Department of Information Technologies established the Center for Cyber Security at CCM to serve as a comprehensive resource for students, faculty, staff and the community in the area of cyber security. Along with recognizing the excellence of the college’s educational programs, the CAE-CDE 2Y designation means that CCM students now can apply for scholarships through the National Science Foundation to continue their cyber security education at four-year institutions. Attending the celebration, along with Frelinghuysen, were Freehold-

ers Douglas Cabana and Thomas J. Mastrangelo; Nancy Binowski, chair of the Department of Information Technologies at CCM; Professor Patricia Tamburelli and her husband, Joe, a part-time instructor at CCM, both of whom were instrumental in gaining the national distinction for the college; CCM trustees; computer science students; and members of the CCM Cyber Security Club. “We’re especially proud of this designation and what it means for CCM students,” said Dr. Anthony J.

Iacono, president of CCM. “Cybersecurity is one of the fastest growing industries with 1.5 million job openings projected by 2019. CCM is excited to be a part of filling that pipeline by providing students with an outstanding education and practical, hands-on opportunities to build their skills and knowledge base.” Mastrangelo said the staff has done a great job of educating future cyber security professionals, increasing awareness for students in many other disciplines and preparing

the greater Morris County community to be good cyber citizens. As part of the celebration, the Department of Information Technologies presented the first public viewing of its “Stay Safe in Cyber Space” video, which details steps that individuals, businesses and organizations can take to protect themselves against cyber-attacks. The video can be viewed at https:// youtu.be/lG0gUPTbNkg/. “This is a big day,’’ said Liam Shamhart, a computer science student.

Cyber Security Tips Offered In Video From Freeholders and CCM

o help deal with the growing problem of cyber security breaches targeting Morris county residents, business and government, the Morris County Board of Freeholders and County College of Morris in Randolph are offering a video featuring tips for use in cyberspace. CCM was designated last month as a National Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense Education. Its student-led team has worked with business, schools, and government including running programs for all Morris County government employees - to offer some easily understandable tips for cyber defense. The new, “Stay Safe in Cyber Space” video, was created by the student team

to provide valuable information in some areas in which people can take simple steps to better protect themselves: www.youtube. com/watch. “We are extremely proud of the work being done at the CCM Center for Cyber Security, which has done a great job of educating our future cyber security professionals, increasing awareness for students in many other disciplines and preparing the greater Morris County community to be good cyber citizens,’’ said Morris County Freeholder Tom Mastrangelo. Some tips offered include mixing upper and lower case letters in passwords, plus numbers and special characters. Do not use less than eight charac-

ters in a password. If password memorization is troublesome, use a password manager. Use different passwords for different services. Since many sites use an e-mail address to login, if the password is compromised on one site, it may pose a threat to the other sites used. All software is susceptible to security vulnerabilities, so it is important to keep software up-to-date with all available vendor patches and updates. Insure the Automatic Update feature is activated. A security patch that requires a five-minute reboot is much less inconvenient than becoming victim of a cyber-attack that steals your personal information. Never leave a comput-

er unattended in the office without locking it. An unlocked computer is like an unlocked door of an unattended house. Walking away from a computer for a short period of time for coffee break may seem harmless, but it only takes minutes for someone to access a logged-in computer and compromise sensitive

information CCM is a leader in cyber security education in New Jersey and is the only community college in the state recognized as a certifying institution by the National Security Agency’s Committee on National Security Standards. CCM is the only community college in New Jer-

sey listed as a National Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense Education by the National Security Agency and Department of Homeland Security. Visit the Department of Homeland Security at https://www.dhs.gov/topic/cybersecurity for more safety tips.
