FILM FESTIVAL

As has been announced previously, the Film Festival is just around the corner! In about 3 WEEKS, on Sunday March 15, you’ll be able to sit back, relax, and enjoy some amateur films created by your very own classmates. The Festival will be a part of the Spring Formal event at the Salem Convention Center in the Willamette Ballroom.

In order to have a successful night, we need your film submissions!  Many of you have already begun the production process. As you create your movies, keep these rules in mind:

  • There is a 3 minute minimum and 10 minute maximum length for film submissions.
  • Film submissions are due on Wednesday March 11 from 2-5pm, 4 days before the event. At this point, we will review the films and request any edits as needed. This will allow you, the filmmakers, to have time to make edits before the event.
  • Films must be submitted in .mp4or .wmv format.

The films will be judged by a panel of judges and awards will be given based on film quality (there are no specific categories this year). The awards are:

  • Best Character (not Actor, but the best character concept)
  • Best Screenplay (based on quality of plot, dialogue, etc.)
  • Best Cinematography (based on quality of camera angles, lighting, etc.)
  • Best Soundtrack (based on the music’s representation of the film itself)
  • Best Film Editing (based on the continuity, uniformity, clarity etc. of the editing)
  • Best Picture (overall)

Good luck and break a leg!

VOLUNTEER CLIENTS NEEDED FOR MASTERS COUNSELING STUDENTS

Our Masters in counseling program needs volunteer clients. If you’re willing to come talk about yourself and your life on tape for 45-50 minutes, you can help the counseling students continue to develop their counseling skills? Come once or schedule several appointments, your choice. Talk about anything from indecision about your major, roommate issues, school stress, or anything else you would like to talk about. Please remember these are beginning counseling students. If you think you may have a more serious clinical problem then you should contact the counseling center on campus instead of volunteering with us.
These taped sessions are used to give clinical feedback to the counseling students and the tapes are deleted as soon as the student counselor presents the tape in supervision. This process makes them better counselors and prepares them to go out into agencies in the fall.
If you’re willing to help the student counselors work on their skills please respond by emailing Mary Aguilera. In your response please give me the times you are available Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday between 9 a.m. and 8 p.m. (Tues. 9 a.m.-4 p.m.), and if you would prefer a male or a female student counselor. My teaching assistant, Andrea Blake, will contact you with an appointment time. The counseling room is AC5524 on the 5th floor.

The poverty simulation experience is designed to help participants begin to understand what it might be like to live in a typical low-income family trying to survive from month to month. It is a simulation, not a game.  The object is to sensitize participants to the realities faced by low-income people. It will be an impactful and practical way of stirring hearts to serve those living in poverty.

CORBAN EXPERIENCE KUDOS

From Chris Vetter: I want to say thank you to everyone for another great Corban Experience event. We welcomed nearly 170 prospective students and their parents to campus over the weekend. I want to say a special thank you to Campus Care and Campus Safety for their extra work over the weekend – especially when we had the tree come down. Also to Aramark for all the efforts made to take good care of our guest through food service. MARCOMM came through again with some great materials for the event as well. Faculty – thank you for taking the time to show up on Monday and meet students and also for welcoming visitors to your classes.

Finally our students deserve thanks as well. Many of them invited strangers into their rooms and did a great job of making them feel welcome. The students also provided some great talent for Sunday night as well. It is the people that make Corban University the special place that it is – thanks for all that you do.

From Michelle Fahlgren: Thunder, lightning and even a fallen tree could not disrupt the awesome time our Corban Experience guests had this past weekend! HUGE thank you to all that hosted one or more of the visitors we had for the night. Reviews have come back positive and this weekend was beyond blessed despite the rainy Oregon welcome. Your voices and insight are so appreciated during this event, so thank you and have a wonderful – slightly less hectic- weekend!

FROM THE LIBRARY:

  • Have you ever faced the frustration of finding a study room during finals week?
  • Have you ever felt odd for peeking in windows trying to figure out if someone was using the room?

Corban Library has a solution for you. **Door Hangers**
Like hotel rooms with their “room service” and “do not disturb” signage. These door hangers will communicate with those outside the study room.
Occupied – means that someone is using the room. This allows for a quick glance to see if the room is free to use.
You Are Welcome To Study In Here – the room might be occupied but you do not mind someone using the other part of the table to study, or to sit in a corner and read for class, etc.
The library hopes that you will be gracious and allow others to study in a room with you.
The door hangers will be in the study rooms on the second floor of the library only starting February 9th.

Developing your Cultural Intelligence Workshop

What do you do when you encounter someone who is different than you? How do you feel? What goes on inside of you? As Christians we need be able to understand other cultures to communicate and work effectively within various cultural groups. We have so much in common! Living, dying, eating, sleeping, caring for our familes, looking for meaning and purpose. Yet, there is so much that is different!
