Mercy Mondays: Earth Champion Awards announced on Earth Day
salvetoday Posted On April 25, 2022


As part of the Earth Day 2022 celebration on Friday, April 22, the Office of Mission Integration awarded ten Salve Regina staff, faculty and students with Earth Champion Awards, as well as a Lifetime Achievement Award. Each recipient received a beautiful cedar bird house handmade by Michael Oliveira, a carpenter in facilities at Salve Regina.

“I was proud to present these awards to folks within the community who are thinking of the earth and its sustainability all year long,” said Mary Beth Pelletier, program manager for the Office of Mission Integration. “These are faculty, staff and students who are extraordinary and never falter. Some may not even realize the enormous impact that their actions and the way they live their lives and do their work makes on the earth.”

Florencia Reiche Blanco (middle).

Florencia Reiche Blanco ’23, Salve Regina’s delegate to the global climate change conference COP26, was awarded for promoting solidarity with special attention to the vulnerable groups such as indigenous communities. Salve Regina’s two other COP26 delegates — Cassidy Curry ’23 and Dr. Jameson Chace, professor in the Department of Biology and Biomedical Sciences — were also awarded for their advancement of climate action at Salve Regina.

Dr. Craig Condella (middle) and his children. 

Jared Coleman, assistant director of facilities, and Dr. Craig Condella, professor of philosophy, are sustainability committee co-chairs. They were awarded for their leadership in furthering sustainable practices on campus and offering academic coursework in environmental ethics.

Coleman doesn’t let the constraints of working on an historical campus with local restrictions discourage him, and Dr. Condella’s ENV-334: Environmental Justice course teaches students that all people — regardless of race, class, gender, ethnicity and economic capacity — have a right to a clean and safe environment and access to adequate natural resources.

Michael Chester, superintendent of grounds, and Michael Potter, assistant superintendent of grounds, were awarded for their dedication to Salve Regina ’s arboretum and to the Act on Climate Law, which calls all in Rhode Island to become NET ZERO in carbon emissions by 2050.

Samantha Parsons ’23 was recognized for her leadership in offering Salve Regina a Thrift Pop-Up during Earth Week 2022. This sustainable shop raised over $500 to sponsor local children for the YMCA Summer Camp and donated all unsold clothes and accessories to Rogers Closet at Rogers High School.

Dr. Paula Martasian, associate professor and chair of the Department of Psychology, and Joseph Goff  ’18, (M) ’22, assistant men’s rugby coach, were recognized for their connections to the Earth through meditations, which they offered together to start Earth Week last Monday. As a vegan, Dr. Martasian practices gratitude to the Earth regularly and inspires the community to consider how it can do its part to lower greenhouse gas emissions and water consumption.

The Office of Mission Integration also recognized Robert “Rusty” Granger, groundskeeper, with a Lifetime Achievement Award for his loyalty as a Salve Regina employee and for his dedication to the earth.

 

 

“You have to be made of some pretty tough stuff – like true grit – to work in the Grounds Department, let alone dedicate yourself, with a kind heart, a brave face, and compassion to the Mercy Mission, to the Earth, and to your community for nearly 50 years,” said Pelletier during the ceremony.

Rusty has worked through the Great Blizzard of ’78, over 30 tropical storms and hurricanes including Hurricane Gloria and Hurricane Bob in 1985, Irene in 2011, Sandy in 2021, and the Perfect Storm in 1991 and been a humble role model to over 100 different Grounds staff members. Rusty is a true gift to Salve Regina.

This presentation of these awards followed the conclusion of Salve Regina’s Clean-Up for Earth Day, which brought 50 staff, faculty, students and Sodexo EVS employees together to pick up over 220 pounds in trash, recycling and sticks across campus and the Cliff Walk.

The Office of Mission Integration is so grateful to all who participated in Earth Week 2022 events and looks forward to working as a community towards a more Sustainable Salve.

Lindsey Smith named Newman Civic Fellow for 2022-2023 academic year
salvetoday Posted On April 19, 2022


Lindsey Smith ’24 has been named Salve Regina’s College Compact Newman Civic Fellow for the 2022-2023 academic year. She joins a group of 173 students from 38 states and Mexico who will have opportunities to build their leadership skills and develop more ways to help the community at large.

The College Compact Newman Civic Fellowship recognizes and supports students who are committed to their community and who strive towards change and problem-solving at Campus Compact institutions.

As a sophomore in the Pell Honors Program, Smith is majoring in social work and Spanish. Dedicated to helping the community around her, Smith has been a service advocate at the Newport String Project and the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Community Center.

“[At the Newport String Project], I dedicated 100 hours of service work before I left in January,” Smith said. “I was able to teach students how to play instruments and assist the teachers there with anything they needed.”

Smith’s acts of service started her first year at Salve Regina amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, when she worked with Learning Unlimited to connect with individuals in the Newport community who have learning disabilities.

“Although we were not allowed to meet in person, this organization worked hard to make the experience as close to in-person as possible through different games and activities each week,” she said. “I formed a wonderful bond with my partner and looked forward to talking with her each week.”

Starting next semester, Smith will begin her junior placement for social work, giving her the chance to further explore and develop her work with the community and those in need.

Smith said she appreciates the support and guidance of Kelly Powers, director of the Center for Community Engagement and Service; Dr. Heather Pizzanello, assistant professor in the Department of Social Work; and Dr. Mary Montminy-Danna, professor in the Department of Social Work. She is also grateful to Dr. Kelli J. Armstrong, president of Salve Regina, for nominating her to the fellowship.

“I am honored to be selected for this enriching experience and to have the ability to eventually meet and work with others who have been selected by their universities,” she said.

Lecture to focus on America’s national myth making with New York Times best-selling author, historian
salvetoday Posted On April 13, 2022


The Pell Center for International Relations and Public Policy will host its last lecture for spring 2022 entitled “Union: The Struggle to Forge the Story of United States Nationhood” with New York Times best-selling author, historian and journalist Colin Woodard. It will be held on Thursday, April 21, at 7 p.m. in the Bazarsky Lecture Hall in the O’Hare Academic Building, and the lecture is in partnership with the League of Women Voters, Newport County. To register for this event, go here.

The lecture will be based off Woodard’s latest book, also entitled “Union: The Struggle to Forge the Story of United States Nationhood.” In his book, Colin Woodard described the struggle to create a national myth for the United States, one that could hold its rival regional cultures together and forge an American nationhood.

On one hand, a small group of individuals —historians, political leaders and novelists — fashioned and promoted the idea of America as nation that had a God-given mission to lead humanity toward freedom, equality and self-government. But this emerging narrative was swiftly contested by another set of intellectuals and firebrands who argued that the United States was instead the homeland of the allegedly superior “Anglo-Saxon” race, upon whom divine and Darwinian favor shined.

Woodard tells the story of the genesis and epic confrontations between these two visions of our nation’s path and purpose through the lives of the key figures who created them, a cast of characters whose personal quirks and virtues, gifts and demons shaped the destiny of millions. It explains how the U.S. got here as a nation and offers the background essential to finding its way back to a better, more unified state.

Colin Woodard is a visiting senior fellow at Salve Regina’s Pell Center. He is a New York Times best-selling author, historian, and journalist who has reported from more than fifty countries and seven continents for The Christian Science Monitor, The San Francisco Chronicle and The Chronicle of Higher Education. He is State and National Affairs Writer at the Portland Press Herald, where he received a 2012 George Polk Award and was a finalist a 2016 Pulitzer Prize.

Woodard’s work has appeared in The New York Times, The Economist, Smithsonian, Politico, The Washington Post and dozens of other publications. He is the author of “American Nations,” “American Character,” “The Lobster Coast,” “The Republic of Pirates,” “Ocean’s End” and “Union: The Struggle to Forge the Story of United States Nationhood.” He is a graduate of Tufts University and the University of Chicago and a past Pew Fellow at Johns Hopkins University.

This lecture will be held on Thursday, April 21, at 7 p.m. in the Bazarsky Lecture Hall in the O’Hare Academic Building. To register, go here.

Students can destress through The Cloud Machine project
salvetoday Posted On April 13, 2022


Students are so often told to get their heads out of the clouds, but now they are being given the opportunity to do the exact opposite.

For the next few weeks, a project entitled The Cloud Machine can be found in McKillop Library. Even during the hectic end of the semester, students can stop by, relax and lose themselves in the creation of words.

The Cloud Machine provides students and members of the community with a writing prompt to do with what they please. The goal of this project is to give the Salve Regina community a chance to slow down, daydream and be present — and possibly use a typewriter for the first time.

The idea of The Cloud Machine was developed by Dr. Jen McClanaghan, associate professor in the Department of English, Communications and Media. McClanaghan is also a member of the McAuley Scholars, and she’s part of a cohort of faculty whose focus is on the earth and climate justice.

“As a writer, I wanted to create a poetry shed,” McClanaghan explained. “An actual shed with a typewriter where students and community members could gather and type and look outside and be inspired, but then the pandemic hit so we did away with the shed but kept the typewriter.”

Over the span of the Fall 2021 semester, The Cloud Machine was also able to evolve into other opportunities. One example is that the students in McClanaghan’s “Cotton” class worked together to write, type and sew a quilt, creating a physical representation of the power of words and the origin of cotton.

The quilt that McClanaghan’s class made has been displayed in McKillop Library, along with The Cloud Machine project.

A picture of the Message in a Bottle project, which hangs over The Cloud Machine. 

Another project that stemmed out of The Cloud Machine is called the Message in a Bottle project. Anyone can type a wish or quote of their choosing and place it in one of the 80 miniature glass bottles hanging over The Cloud Machine.

“One hope is that it brings joy to people,” McClanaghan explained. “Another is that it helps us slow our pace, have a few moments of daydreaming and be present to what’s around us.”

The ultimate call of The Cloud Machine is to get students and the community to explore their creativity and relax in a world that is moving so fast.

“There’s no delete, there’s no electricity,” said McClanaghan. “It’s wonderfully non-tech, which I think helps move us closer to the environment and to a child-like space of play and wonder.”

Students are also encouraged to stop by the first floor of McKillop Library on Thursday, April 21, at 4 p.m. during Earth Week to see the other McAuley Scholar professors present their initiatives on earth and climate justice. More details on Earth Week can be found here.

The Cloud Machine has moved around or been stationed in different places, as shown in this picture, but it’s currently in the McKillop Library.

Arbor Day Foundation honors Salve Regina with Tree Campus USA recognition
salvetoday Posted On April 12, 2022


For its ongoing commitment to the urban forest management of its 80-acre campus, Salve Regina has once again earned Tree Campus USA Higher Education recognition from the Arbor Day Foundation.

Salve Regina achieved all five core standards for sustainable campus forestry required by Tree Campus USA, including the existence of a tree advisory committee, evidence of a campus tree care plan, dedicated annual expenditures for tree stewardship, an Arbor Day observance and the sponsorship of student service learning projects.

The Salve Regina Arboretum, a recognized Level II arboretum by ArbNet’s accreditation program, preserves the natural and historic landscape resources on campus. University grounds feature about 1,200 trees of more than 100 different species.

As part of a 10-year arboretum plan developed in 2018 by students working with Dr. Jameson Chace, associate professor in the Department of Biology and Biomedical Sciences, strategies were developed to inventory the current tree collection. Teams were also established to develop formal educational programming and conservation initiatives related to the arboretum, as well as to conduct research related to arboreta and develop a list of species of special interest to add to the arboretum in the coming years. A primary goal of the 10-year plan is to guide the University to reach Level III Arboretum accreditation.

“We value this land surrounding our campus, and we feel a strong sense of responsibility to preserve it for future generations of students, members of the community and visitors to Newport,” said Chancellor M. Therese Antone, RSM.

Mercy Mondays: Chaplain’s Corner – On celebrating Easter
salvetoday Posted On April 11, 2022


It’s so good to see so many mask-less smiling faces on campus as the spring warms up Salve Regina. When I arrived here at the beginning of August 2020, we were in the midst of the pandemic. So I’m thrilled to see so many smiling faces in and out of the chapel, classroom, the Mercy Center for Spiritual Life and more.

I’m thankful for the opportunity to get to know you and your families more throughout my time here. It has been almost two full academic years since I came here, and I’m absolutely excited to see where we are going as a Catholic, mercy institution.

On that note, let’s take a moment to contemplate Easter, which will be coming up this weekend.

Celebrating Easter

Easter is a time of new birth, renewal, growth, and new beginnings. For this reason, we celebrate the Sacraments of Initiation. It is also a time for us to keep each other in prayer.

May our prayers be with those who are suffering from a forced newness of life due to war, poverty, anguish and political unrest. As a community of faith and an institution for higher learning, we have been holding in prayer all those impacted by suffering, including the Ukrainian-Russian conflict.

Pope Francis prayed on Easter Sunday 2021, “May the light of the risen Jesus be a source of rebirth for migrants fleeing from war and extreme poverty. Let us recognize in their faces the marred and suffering face of the Lord as he walked the path to Calvary.”

Here, we at Salve Regina know and respond to the critical concerns of mercy in many ways. Now more than ever, we are reminded of their impact on society. In times of distress, it is easy to become discouraged and feel defeated. Pope Francis tells us that Easter is the time we celebrate the Risen Christ, who is a hope that does not disappoint. Following the example of Pope Francis, I would like to invite you to rediscover the hope that we get in the risen Christ this Easter season.

Other announcements 

Earlier this month, the University had two students received into the Roman Catholic Church through the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (RCIA). The RCIA program is a great way for students who are not Catholic or who are Catholic but missing one or more of the Seven Sacraments to receive them and be welcomed formally into the Catholic Church. It’s a fantastic way to deepen your faith and spirituality.

This program happens every year before Easter. Should anyone be interested or know someone who is interested, please have them reach out to me or Fr. Ray, the other University Chapel. For more information, visit our website.

On another note, please join Fr. Raymond Malm and I for the last Sunday Masses of the semester at Our Lady of Mercy Chapel on Sunday, April 24, at 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. We will be blessing the seniors as they begin their new journeys in life. We will also be blessing the vegetable seeds that will be donated to St. Joseph’s Food Pantry to help its clients.

Offered by Rev. Scott Pontes, chaplain at Salve Regina’s Our Lady of Mercy Chapel
