Tif in University joins Tif in‐Seneca County FOP to raise funds for “Cops for Kids” The Tif in-Seneca County Harold J. Fraley Fraternal Order of the Police Lodge and Tif in University have combined efforts to raise money for the “Cops for Kids” program that has supported area youth since 1971. TU Criminal Justice students will begin calling county residents next week for donations to support the numerous charitable efforts the FOP does every year. “It is great that CJ students are doing this because it will help them learn about community policing,” said TU Professor of Business Law and Criminal Justice Jeffry Stockner. He also noted the importance of the hands-onexperience the students will receive when reaching out and connecting to the community through this endeavor. “Over the past several years, we have been able to donate more and support additional youth groups than we have in the past because of our great local community members donating to this great cause,” said Tif in Police Of icer Brent Riley. “This year, with Tif in University on board, we will be able to increase our efforts to help the youths of Tif in/Seneca County.” All contributions made will go to support projects such as Christmas shopping for underprivileged children; scholarships for high school seniors; donations and supplies for youth sport leagues; canned goods for the Salvation Army and Soup Kitchen; criminal justice textbooks to Sentinel Vocational School; and a few other altruistic efforts of the FOP. For more information contact Jeff Stockner at jstockne@tif in.edu or 419-448-3321, or Joe Borich at borichj@tif in.edu or 419-448-3438.

TU’s Santos Receives Acclaim for Rock‐Metal Album
TU Commercial Music Director Nathan Santos recently received praise for his contribution to Terminal Degree, a trio featuring violin, bass, and drum, and their recording of the rock-metal album, “The Middle of Nowhen.” The album features nine tracks that are a synthesis of heavy metal, jazz, and classical music. Santos was invited to perform the electric bass tracks by drummer/composer Mike Barnett, Indiana University of Pennsylvania (IUP) alum, in 2012, where Santos taught for ten years as an instructor of double and electric bass guitar. “The project was attractive as the concept was unique, extremely challenging, involved high-caliber performers, and was an opportunity for wide exposure,” Santos said. Barnett, Santos, and violinist Stanley Chepaitis, an IUP colleague, recorded the album in 2013 in Derry, Pennsylvania and Boulder, Colorado. The album was released to distributors such as iTunes, Amazon, and CD Baby in 2013. It has been reviewed on Progarchy.com, a progressive rock focused online publication. “The album featured a virtuoso performance from Stanley Chepaitis and a granite-solid back-line of Nathan Santos’ bass and Mike Barnett’s drums,” reviewer Jason Rubenstein wrote. “They pull off a thorough and successful fusion of classical and metal, borrowing ideas from Sarasate, Paganini, and the incredible virtuosity of Heifetz and placing them squarely in the context of progressive metal.” “I hope that the project creates more opportunities,” said Santos. “I am proud of the contribution I made to the recording. It would be great to see more revenue generated as well as reach a wider audience.” Santos’ love of progressive rock has extended into his teaching with the course RUSH: Progressive Rock and Modern Society being taught at TU this fall. For more information about Terminal Degree and the album “The Middle of Nowhen,” contact Santos at santosnh@tif in.edu. 10
