Upon leaving Ethiopia to discover the American dream, Betra Amare wasn't sure what she should expect. What she knew of the US was limited to what Hollywood had shown her. She had doubts whether she would be able to fit in. In Miller, South Dakota, however, her initial worries were put to rest. At Sunshine Bible Academy (SBA), she found acceptance, joy, and most importantly, a sense of comfort –– all of which are necessary for boarding students far from home. Welcomed with open arms, Amare immediately felt the love from faculty members and fellow students. "They made me feel at home and helped me get used to my new surroundings," she shares. "I have made friends who have become my family." Here, Amare's horizons were broadened and her faith was renewed. Above all, she had the backing of a community who would see her through every hurdle. For example, when COVID-19 was at its peak, SBA ensured she was sheltered comfortably and fed well when going back to...

Dionna Smith, global head of DEI at Thumbtack, says these are must-haves for DE&I to evolve beyond recruiting. As more companies recognize the imperative to prioritize diversity, equity and inclusion, they are increasingly hiring C-suite level leaders to manage their DEI strategies. Often, those in positions like chief diversity officer focus on recruiting—diversifying the talent pipeline, making the hiring process more equitable, ensuring underrepresented candidates are reached. Dionna Smith, global head of DE&I at Thumbtack, says that while a DE&I focus in recruiting is a priority, it's also essential to broaden DE&I's reach, embedding its work throughout the organization, particularly in talent management, where Smith spent the first part of her career. Dionna Smith "It's important to have a more holistic view of DEI," she says, "and...

Mandatory masks. Crowded cafeterias. Classrooms full of unvaccinated elementary school students. Rising Delta variant cases. And no option for remote learning. For many New Jersey parents, the upcoming start of the third school year impacted by the coronavirus pandemic is proving to be the most stressful. Gov. Phil Murphy has said he expects all student to be back in class for full days of in-person public school classes, even as some families say they are not ready. So, is it possible for students to just skip this school year? No home-schooling. No remote learning. Just put the fourth grade on hold — then return for the 2022-2023 school year to start the fourth grade when the virus has hopefully waned? Laws vary from state to state, but in New Jersey state officials said most K-12 students can't legally take a "gap year." "If a parent withheld their child from attending public school without an excused absence, the child would be truant," said Michael Yaple, a...

Quarterback Mac Jones at 2021 Patriots training camp. (Courtesy New England Patriots) Mac Jones may not be getting as many starter's reps at Patriots training camp, but the rookie quarterback is looking and sounding more confident with each practice. For the second straight day, Jones audibly asserted himself running the offense in 11-on-11 drills. He's been noticeably louder when calling out plays and directing his teammates to their spots. And his assertiveness is translating to more eye-opening plays, too. Jones' most impressive pass was a short strike to Kendrick Bourne, but the impressive part was everything that came before the throw. The quarterback loudly called the play, then after the snap, he slid left to buy time and pointed Bourne toward a soft area of the field before delivering the ball. The rookie said last Thursday that offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels had recently pulled him aside and advised ...

Face coverings may soon be required for children as young as 5 years old and staff members working in early education, pending a state board's decision on the plan by Early Education and Care Commissioner Samantha Aigner-Treworgy. Aigner-Treworgy is asking the Board of Early Education and Care to grant her the authority to implement an indoor mask mandate at all state-licensed child care centers, according to a statement. "The mask requirement would help ensure child care, afterschool programs, and other facilities licensed by EEC can remain open with limited interruptions and provide additional health and safety measures as more educators get vaccinated," the statement said. The board is expected to vote on the question during a special meeting on Tuesday. The mask requirement would allow expectations for children who cannot wear one due to a medical condition or behavioral needs, the statement said. Students ages 2 to 4 years old are encouraged to wear masks, the statem...

Six Sigma is a quality management approach that seeks to minimize or eliminate defects or errors in products and business services. Originally developed to improve manufacturing processes, the tools and techniques used in Six Sigma are now considered industry-agnostic, which means they have been successfully used in such sectors as aeronautics, electronics, pharmaceuticals, retail and more. The "sigma" part of Six Sigma refers to the data analysis portion of the process. Following Six Sigma techniques, a team gathers and analyzes data about product manufacture or service creation/delivery to determine the standard deviation (sigma) between the mean and the nearest customer specification limit. The goal is to limit defects or errors to a maximum of 3.4 per million opportunities. (In even more technical language, according to several Six Sigma sources, a "normally distributed process, with normal distribution variation about the mean, would need specification limits of +/-...

Our Supreme Court's recent 4-3 decision in Coleman v. Martinez poses the question of whether and to what extent the courts should rely on statute as a source of public policy in shaping the common law outside the bounds of the statute. Justice Albin's dissent declares that the Legislature is the "ultimate expositor of public policy," from which it concludes that a statute limiting the duty of licensed mental health professionals to warn of danger from a patient should be applied to a social worker not within the scope of the statute. Justice Solomon's opinion for the majority declines to apply the statute beyond its express terms, instead applying a common law analysis of duty to the facts of the case. By a one-vote majority, the court has decided that it will exercise independent judgment in determining the scope of duty to a tort victim unless and only so far as directly constrained by statute. The case arose from a knife attack by a psychiatric patient...

​ Harrisburg, PA – Governor Tom Wolf announced today more than $4.8 million has been awarded in Direct Care Worker Training Grants (DCWTG) to improve the quality of care provided by direct care workers while creating opportunities for them to build new careers and earn family-sustaining wages. "As demand increases for essential services provided by direct care workers, their safety and the quality of care they provide must be maintained," said Gov. Wolf. "Nearly 90 percent of direct care worker jobs are filled by women who receive limited health benefits and earn relatively low wages. These grants not only benefit our loved ones in long-term care facilities like nursing homes and receiving care at home, but also the workers who care for them." The Department of Labor & Industry (L&I) awarded the DCWTGs to four eligible grantees that submitted proposals. The program will create and develop training programs that increase the quality of services, offer...
