Murphy Academic Support Center News The Center is preparing for an onslaught of ghosts, vampires, zombies, and students who
need some academic help this week. With the semester well into its second half, it may be time to put the foot on the pedal to help boost grades. One way to do this is to get some help from the Murphy Academic Support Center programs. The Murphy Center provides support in math and accounting classes with the Power Hour program. To see the Power Hour schedule please go to: http://www.tif in.edu/studentsuccesscenter/math/ If a student just needs to discuss the ideas behind the themes of a novel or the organiza‐ tion of a paper, the PAL program provides a group study session atmosphere. These ses‐ sions may help a student get over that mental block that seems to be holding them back. PAL sessions are announced in the classes and they can also be found at: http://www.tif in.edu/studentsuccesscenter/writing/ A student may also ind support with a one on one appointment with a tutor. To set up an appointment simply stop by the Murphy Center front desk, call the Murphy Center at ex‐ tension 3324, or e‐mail us at tutor@tif in.edu. Finally, the MASC has computers and free printing. Also, most days there are available “quiet rooms” on the ground loor to allow students the opportunity to study between classes. Come see us on Friday for the Trick or Treat Trail.

You & TU: Students Out & About On October 1st, the students of Arabic 101 and 202 spent the day immersed in the culture of the country whose language they are studying. “Culturally enriching ield trips provide students with the op‐ portunity for personal and pro‐ fessional growth,” said Sami Mejri, Instructor of Science. “I think that cultural exposure is an important aspect of teaching a foreign language and key to understanding the myths and facts associated with such en‐ deavors. “ Students visited the Arab Ameri‐ can National Museum to learn about the Arab speaking world, the geo‐historical, and political nature of that region of the world. In addition to the tour, students had the opportunity to visit a Middle‐Eastern restaurant and learned about different types of foods and pastries from Arabic speaking countries.
Seven Tif in University business students majoring in Sports and Recreation Management attended the Michigan Sports Business Conference at the University of Michigan in Ann Ar‐ bor on October 24, 2014. Students included freshmen Blake Edward, Victor Bezak, Jacob Theilbar; sophomores Alanna Widman and Kyle Durham; juniors Theresa Scott and John Bennett. Tif in University students were among 250 students and pro‐ fessionals attending the third annual conference focusing on executive positions in the industry and how they are shaping the world of sports. Among the presenters were Mike Terrico (ESPN Monday Night Football); David Cho (Director of NBA Partnerships for Adidas); Jeff Collins (Chief Operating Of icer for the NHL); Tom Wilson (President of Olympia Entertain‐ ment); Janet Marie Smith (Senior Vice President for the L.A. Dodgers). Presentations and workshops focused on the eco‐ nomic reforming of the NCAA; The Intersection of Sport and Urban Development; How Brand Impacts the Bottom Line; Sport Athlete Representation; and How to Get Your First Job in Sports. Bezak said he attended the conference because he wanted to immerse himself into the sport business world as much as possible ‐ as early as possible. Durham added that he went to the MSBC to further his knowledge about Sports Business and to discover what it has to offer toward my professional career. Additional presenters included Howard Hamler (Chief Market‐ ing Operator for the MLS); Jeff Wilpon, (CEO of the N.Y. Mets); Jim Delany (Commissioner of the Big Ten); Henry Stafford (President of Under Armour ‐ North America); Ben Sutton (President of IMG College); John Shea (Head of Gatorade Glob‐ al Marketing); and Julie Kimmons (Director of Championships for the NCAA). 5

Appel Presents at Conference First TU Student Chosen for Dr. Jonathan Appel presented at the North Central Association for Counselor Education and Su‐ pervision (NCACES) in St. Louis, MO (October 15‐18). The theme of the conference was “Social Justice” and included a panel of activists from Ferguson, MO. Dr. Appel’s irst presentation was entitled, “And Justice for All? Therapeutic Jurisprudence as an Ethical Paradigm for Counseling Professions.” This presentation discussed how, clinicians and mental health professionals are working with court order and offender populations across the human service and the criminal justice systems. These pro‐ fessionals are required to resolve emerging ethical dilemmas, which invariably result from differences between therapeutic and criminal justice systems. Professionals in such programs cannot practice in an ethical vacuum; they need a new integrated form of ethical guidance for therapeutic competence and professional integrity that balances the needs for both the offender and the community. A Therapeu‐ tic Jurisprudence framework was offered as para‐ digm, which aims to serve the best interests of the community, while nevertheless limiting the overly punitive and unjust aspects of offender treatment. The second presentation was “Globalization of Pro‐ fessional Counseling: Implications for Social Jus‐ tice”. This presentation offered a review of the con‐ structs and resources in international models of counseling and psychotherapy and examined cur‐ rent debates in the globalization counseling and psychotherapy and the role of social justice in this debate. Dr. Appel has presented widely on issues related to the interface between the criminal justice and men‐ tal health systems and holds degrees and certi ica‐ tions in both areas. Dr. Appel co‐presented with his wife, Dr. Dohee Kim‐Appel, an associate professor in Art Therapy and Counseling at Ursuline College.

Export Internship Tif in University student Heather Bond of Fostoria was recently chosen for the Ohio Export Internship Pro‐ gram. She is the irst Tif in University student accepted into the program. Bond will spend Fridays during the upcoming spring semester in Columbus participating in a class that will teach her how to create an export‐ ing program for a small to medium size business. After completing the class, Bond will spend the summer planning and implementing an export program for a company in Ohio. “I applied for the Ohio Export Program because being a displaced worker, I understand irst‐hand how important it is to keep jobs in Ohio” Bond stated. The program was developed by the Ohio Develop‐ ment Services Agency with the class being offered for the third year on the campus of The Ohio State University in Columbus. The Ohio Export Intern‐ ship Program is designed for companies that are looking to export for the irst time or to improve their current export initiatives. The program matches interested companies with students who have completed the export‐focused coursework and provides a 50 percent reimbursement for the intern wages to the participating companies. “I hope to work in an exporting position here in Northwest Ohio to help others become aware of this amazing export program Ohio State offers. This awareness will give others like me the same opportunity to help Ohio job growth by export‐ ing” she stated. Bond said she believes the most interesting part of the class will be building relationships with students in the program and networking with them in the future.

Football Tif in University (5‐3, 4‐3 GLI‐ AC) used its trademark pinpoint passing attack and a stingy de‐ fense to jump out to a 31‐3 lead in the fourth quarter, then held off a late charge by Hillsdale in winning 31‐24. For the irst three quarters, the Dragons controlled the tempo. They opened the game with an 80 yard drive, rushing on two‐ thirds of their plays before An‐ tonio Pipkin rushed in from 9 yards out for the game's irst score at the 11:08 mark to make it 7‐0. The Dragons got another score at 11:24 of the second quarter when Kyle Yoder blocked a Chargers punt and Brandon Person picked it up from 10 yards out and returned it for the score. Hillsdale's only points of the half came when Steven Mette kicked a 32 yard ield goal with 5:08 left to make it 14 ‐3 at the half. The Dragons got those three points back when Tomislav De‐ rezic booted a 25 yard ield goal at 6:35 of the third quarter, pushing Tif in's lead back to 14 points at 17‐3. The Dragons then got its pass‐ ing game clicking on its next two possessions, as TU drove 66 and 78 yards on scoring drives. Marcus Beaurem hauled in a 28 yard pass from Pipkin for one score, and then Charles Holland took a crossing route and streaked 77 yards to put the Dragons ahead 31‐3 early in the fourth quarter. The Dragons at this point had amassed 420 yards of offense while holding Hillsdale to just over 200.
October 28, 2014
With the win seemingly in hand, the Chargers mounted a come‐ back. Hillsdale scored three touchdowns starting at the 7:52 mark of the fourth quarter, closing to within one score with 1:01 to play. The Dragons' Pedro Correa, howev‐ er, recovered the onside kick to seal the victory for TU. TU outgained Hillsdale in total offense 421‐386, including 325 through the air on ef icient 22 of 30 passing with no intercep‐ tions. They also held Hillsdale to just 5 of 15 on third down conversions. Pipkin enjoyed another good day, passing for 2 TDs on 22 of 30 passing for 325 yards while also rushing for 45 yards and another score. Holland was the prime bene iciary, catching 5 passes for 110 yards while Beaurem also had 4 catches for 62 yards. Holland and Beaurem also accounted for 203 all‐ purpose yards. Seth Pekoe had a ine day punt‐ ing, averaging 49 yards per punt and placing half of his kicks inside the 20. Derezic was also perfect, hitting all four PATs while also making a ield goal. Defensively, TU had many standouts. Person came to play, making 16 tackles including 12 solo stops while forcing a fum‐ ble and recovering it while also returning a blocked punt for a score. Justin Herrnstein also had 10 tackles with a tackle for loss. Carlton Watkins had 7 tackles with an interception and 2 pass‐ es broken up, while D.J. Stewart

also had 6 tackles. Jalen Ran‐ dolph and Shawn Scott had 5 tackles each, and Morgan Loyd had 4 tackles with a sack.
Men's Soccer
The odds seemed stacked against Tif in University (11‐3‐ 1, 10‐3 GLIAC) entering their battle on the road against 20th‐ ranked Saginaw Valley State. They were without the two top scorers in the GLIAC, as Andre Landell and Michael McPeek were both sitting out after red cards in their last out‐ ing. They had also already fallen to the Cardinals in double over‐ time 2‐1 earlier in the season at home. It didn't matter. Tif in took the lead early and never trailed, defeating the Car‐ dinals 2‐1 and reclaiming the top spot in the conference with one game left in the regular sea‐ son for the Dragons. They play Findlay at home on Oct. 31 with a chance to win the regular sea‐ son outright. Tif in took the lead in the fourth minute when Alex Tuliraba took Calin Vadana's kick and headed it to Colin Edwards for a header goal and a quick 1‐0 lead. The Dragons then came out af‐ ter halftime and scored in the 46th minute, as Tuliraba took a pass from Stephen Saddler and headed it home for a 2‐0 lead. The Cardinals answered quick‐ ly, getting a goal back in the 48th minute, but the Dragons defense was un lappable, allow‐ ing a total of 2 shots on goal in the entire contest.
