Bucknell University: Healthy Campus - Duration: 1:37.

I think that's awesome that

we're getting recognized

for our commitment to wellness.

The Student Health center

is pretty awesome.

And we have the counseling

and psychological services.

They've been really helpful for me

for getting strategies of like,

"I have all this work.

What do I do first?"

and coming up with a plan.

It was quick and easy

to meet up with the nutritionist

on campus.

I use a lot of the

techniques and advice

that she has given me.

Starting to eat more vegetables

or more fruit

or drink more water,

you start ingraining those habits

in your day-to-day life

as a college student.

Once you have that nutritional variety,

I think it's really important

for everyone to be able to have

an output for their physicality

and their physical energy.

Bucknell does a great job of offering

the infrastructure to do that.

Here at Bucknell,

I do get excited about

having the healthy options

available to me with no hassle at all.

Thoughts about JRC University - Duration: 1:46.

We just attended the soft wash program here at J.Racenstein taught by Doug Apt.

We came down just to learn about this and pretty much the do's and the don'ts

and it was great because Doug taught us a lot of things that we could do and the

many things that we have to be careful of going into softwash.

We certainly don't want to end up being liable for anything so to know all the

do's and the dont's it was really good. It was very educational we appreciate the time

I'm looking to get into house washing and soft washing took the flatwork

pressure washing 101 and a soft washing today

they were very informative I learned a lot. I'm a lot more comfortable now to move into

my new season offering soft washings. Great class, definitely recommend taking it.

Just took the three-day course for window cleaning powerwashing and soft

washing. We've been in business for 30 years, me and my father, learned a lot of

new styles of cleaning, new chemicals that are out on the market that just

came out, new tricks on how to use the chemicals, new style machines definitely

enjoyed the three-day course learned a lot from it. Got to meet a few new guys

talked about work and what you could do with these new machines and these new

chemicals. Definitely enjoyed it and got to learn a lot from it

I've come to J.Racenstein University for three days of training on window

cleaning, pressure washing and soft washing and the three-day training was

informative and helpful and certainly is positioned me to be ready to go out in

the field and be successful doing whatever our customers need

- A polytechnic university means that we're going to be able

to apply what the students learn.

- The polytechnic university is a commitment

to applied learning, to collaborations,

and a real connection to industry

and the needs of a community in a region.

- They also get a chance to work directly

with a client or an industry partner

or a community partner, so they work on real-world projects

Studying Horsepower in the Digital Age – University of Alaska Anchorage - Duration: 3:00.

I really like fast cars. Yep, I guess that's really what caught me

onto this automotive track. Built my first engine when I was a sophomore in

high school, and I put it in my own car and won a

car show with it. For Christmas, I was getting car parts instead of toys and

video games. That's pretty much how it went! My name is Justin Gentz. I'm studying

automotive technology at UAA in the GM ASEP program.

I've learned more here than I have my entire life put together just in one semester. It's really been

eye-opening. I didn't know there was so much technology that went into vehicles.

In high school, I was working on vehicles from the 80s and 90s because that's all

I could afford - that's all we did. Now we're working on 2015 to 2018 vehicles and

just the whole system is completely different.

Everything is computer-related nowadays and you really need to know electrical

and theories and operations for everything. When I started with Intro to

Auto, only like three kids in the class have ever done an oil change,

so they come in knowing nothing, really, and like right now they know quite a bit

and they're assembling engines themselves. The teachers and faculty are

all willing to help you out. Even if they're not the teacher for the class,

they will stop what they're doing and come help you.

I was raised in Alaska since I was in fifth grade. My brother did the program here with Mr. Marshall, same

teacher. And my Wasilla High School teacher, he highly recommended their own

Marshalls class because it's - I think it's the best in the state, actually.

Probably anywhere. How else would you get a 2016 Corvette donated by

GM? So that thing's pretty fun, too. That thing's loaded.

Setbacks as the key to success | Curtin University Graduation Speech 2018 - Duration: 11:23.

Good evening Chancellor, Vice-Chancellor, distinguished guests, graduates, family

and friends, thank you to everyone for the opportunity to speak to you all on

your special night. I have been a student at the School of Biomedical Sciences,

a nursing student, a Midwifery student and before it was a university degree, I even

had a go at being a Paramedic student. I've been an undergraduate student,

a postgraduate student, I've thought about being a Master's student, but I don't

think I'll ever be a PhD student. So to the 350 graduating students here today,

I'm sure that I can relate to most of you on some level. When I was invited to

do this address, I was gobsmacked to say the least.

Why would Curtin want someone like me to inspire this new bunch of graduates?

Although in recent years I have had many successes, in the beginning I was fraught

with setbacks. So the theme of my speech tonight is setbacks. My first setback.

When trying to decide what I wanted to be when I grew up, nursing was always

number one on my list. However as my ever wise mother pointed out, I was incredibly

squeamish, would faint at the mere sight of blood and had the biggest needle

phobia you could possibly imagine. So probably not the greatest career move.

Being 17, I had no clue what to do next, so we thought given that I loved human

biology in high school, I'd apply for that degree. Back then the TEE score

required for that was 330, easy. Enter setback number two, I failed and scored 230.

Curtin weren't even going to look at me. Plan C, repeat year 12 at Canning College, great

let's do that. Setback number three, they didn't want me either. You see the

average improvement in marks was about sixty points and I needed a hundred. I'm not

sure how, but we convinced them that I was capable and they let me in.

I was capable because I got my 100 points and scored 330 as promised. And then by some

ridiculous twist of fate, the aggregate for my dream course went up to 340.

Hello setback number four, you suck. But here's my first piece of advice to you,

there is nothing wrong with begging, and boy did I beg Curtin for that second

round offer, and luckily for me it worked. So three years later, I graduated

with my Human Biology degree from the School of Biomedical Sciences, now what.

I gave education ago and started doing a DipEd,

but after one day at Rossmoyne Senior High School with year 12 students

who looked older than me, and a preceptor who wanted me to teach their geology class,

I realised this was not the course for me. I tried paramedics and made it to

the final 40 applicants of hundreds that applied. Surprising, given that during my

driving test, I was asked what I thought about driving the ambulance and I

completely took my hands off the wheel saying, I expected the steering wheel to

be bigger, as I was turning right through a set of traffic lights. Then armed with

my needle phobia, I made the bizarre decision to give

phlebotomy a go. Obvious choice for a needle phobic. That course was held here

at Curtin just a week I think. I didn't sleep the whole weekend before,

absolutely packing my dacks that not only was I going to learn how to take blood,

but that someone was actually going to practise on me. You can imagine

my sheer delight when the morning of the course, we all received phone calls that

the facilitator was ill and the course had been postponed.

I took my refund and ran. So education, paramedics, phlebotomy, that's another three

setbacks, I think we're up to number eight by now. It's ironic but after

applying for a special late withdrawal from the Diploma of Education, I actually

got a teaching job here at Curtin. I started hanging out with one of my old

Human Biology lecturers, we were a small cohort, very close bunch and it felt like

our own little Human Biology family. Georgina took me under her wing and I

did a little bit of filing, helped her enter exam marks, just a few menial tasks

to keep my mind off the fact that I was feeling like a complete lost failure,

whose only achievement so far was a list of setbacks and a staff expert badge at

Pizza Hut. It was Georgina that listened to me

complain bitterly about how horrible I found the Education prac and it just

wasn't for me, and no way did I have the confidence to teach. It was also Georgina

who at this point suggested I might like to teach some first-year Human Biology

units here at Curtin instead. Yeah, because that would be better. Either she

was crazy or I was crazy or we were both crazy, but I did it and I loved it.

And I've taught these two Human Biology units 133, 134 or now known as HSF

and ISAP for about 15 years. Hindsight tells me that this was

probably my setback turning point. Don't get me wrong, there was still plenty of

setbacks to come, but I was finally heading in the right kind of direction.

My thirst to do nursing never really went away. Every semester I would have a bunch

of nursing students in my class and we'd often get a little distracted and talk

of their prac experiences. It made me want it so much more, but I just couldn't

get past that fear of blood and those horrible pesky needles. So how did I get

over my disgust of blood..? Well exactly 368 days after I got the biggest setback

of my life, being told I would never have children. I had a baby, I actually have four.

[Laughter]

I often tell...

[Applause]

I often tell my women when they give birth, that they also acquire superpowers,

because when I gave birth to a nine-pound butterball after 26 hours of labour,

a large episiotomy, vacuum extraction and a postpartum haemorrhage, I somehow knew

that if I could do that, I could do anything. So when my said butterball was

seven months old, I came back to Curtin and finally did my nursing degree.

I took a semester off halfway through, to have baby number two and graduated pregnant

with baby number three. And once I completed my post-grad in Midwifery,

he finally let me have baby number four. And no there will not be a baby number five,

or so I'm told. That is how I became a midwife.

Being a midwife is an awesome job, to be with a woman when she brings life into

this world, is such a privilege. To be with a woman when she brings stillness

into this world, is more than a privilege. It changes us, it hurts us, it challenges us.

This is not what any of us signed up for, nor is this how life should play out.

Starting 'A Midwife's Gift' has been the highlight of my career. I did not set out

to do this intentionally, it just happened because it needed to.

I consider myself very lucky to be doing what I'm doing and walking alongside

those that are on their journey of grief. In 2014, a beautiful boy, the most perfect

baby boy, was born at my hospital. He was full-term and his mum had had a very

uneventful textbook pregnancy. She woke up one morning with some blood loss and

by time she arrived at the hospital her baby had passed away.

Lincoln was perfect, ten fingers, ten toes, chubby cheeks, button nose, truly perfect.

Lincoln's short life inspired me to fundraise for a cold cuddle cot that I

wanted to purchase for my hospital. I emailed an Australian based foundation

who was aiming to provide a cot to every maternity hospital in Australia, stating

that I wanted to fundraise to purchase one cot, just one, for my hospital and

asked how I should go about doing this. It took me at least half an hour to

press the send button. I said to my husband, I've done something.

He looked at me with that "what now?" look that only he can give, and when I

explained that I was going to attempt to raise four thousand dollars for a cuddle

cot package, he rolled his eyes, questioned when I thought I would find

the time to do all this extra work, and then bowed in the knowledge that I would.

The foundation suggested I open a GoFundMe page and a Facebook page to

share my story and attract donations. She also told me I would have the money in

two weeks, so she would get the ball rolling on my order.

Panic set in at this point, how on earth would I make four thousand dollars

in two weeks? I needn't have worried, in just ten days my Facebook page,

A Midwife's Gift, had raised just over five thousand dollars. This in itself set my

mind racing and my husband's eyes rolling, again. Maybe just maybe I should

keep going and try for a second cot. In November 2014, I officially handed over

the cuddle cot to St John of God, Mount Lawley. To my absolute surprise and

delight the CEO presented me with a $4,000 check to pay it forward. My mind

was now made up, I contacted the Foundation again and said take WA off

your list, I've got it covered. Since September 2014, A Midwife's Gift has

raised just over a hundred and ten thousand dollars and twenty-one cots later,

we have almost ensured that every WA maternity hospital has a cuddle cot

available to anyone who experiences the tragic loss of their baby. I'm sure some

of you may be asking what...

[Clapping]

Some of you may be asking, what is a cuddle cot. The cuddle cot is a bassinet

with a mattress that has refrigerated water pumped into, allowing the

deceased baby to remain with its parents and not have to be taken to the morgue.

It gives the families the gift of time with their baby, time to hold, to love,

to cuddle, to grieve, to bathe, to make memories. Last October I won a Curtin

Alumni Achievement Award, and as honoured as I was to receive this, it highlighted

to me in my path of setbacks. Here I am being recognised by the very university

I had to beg to get into. After three degrees and teaching here for about 15 years,

it's good to know I've finally proved my worth to get that elusive uni offer.

I should leave you with some wise words of wisdom but clearly I'm way too young to

be wise. All I have for you is, don't give up. Curtin didn't want me, now they're

proud of me. Don't take no for an answer, I wasn't supposed to have kids, I have four.

Don't settle, you've always got more in you. Enjoy the process,

the good, the bad and the ugly. Do what ought to be done. Sometimes you

don't find the right path, but the right path will find you. And in case my kids

ever happen to watch this on YouTube, listen to your mum, she always knows best.

[Laughter]

I've lost track of the number of setbacks I've had, there's been a lot.

Small ones, significant ones, devastating ones, but at the end of the day, they were

all the right ones. If you do it right, failure is success, as long as you're

learning from each setback, you're on your way. Thank you for listening to my story,

congratulations to all of you tonight as you sigh that big sigh of

relief that you did it, you graduated. Good luck to you all as you enter your

next chapter and I wish you just the right amount of setbacks to put you on

your path to greatness.

[Applause]

has a lot of places like this where you come in there's a lot of technology in their room because that's what we're all about

and you sit and you learn, and there's charging ports for your phone and laptop which are very very important.

Over here we have a art. I think. I don't know what art is.

It's all information based. Yay! Information. Over here, we have student services.

For all your service needs. Let's go inside

It's really quiet in here

But a lot of people come in if they have any problems with their schedule, any problems with

school in general. People can just come hang talk to your counselor your advisor and just you know. I

don't know what to say. Well cut that out.

Let's go.

This hallway again

it's pretty cool.

More TVs.

Coming down here is awesome because we have something called the iCafe. Can you tell that like the letter 'I' yet?

Should I walk backwards? Yes I will.

So the iCafe is where a lot of people come to grab a snack. Maybe study for a little bit between classes or at night.

I found people here way late at night.

Some people like it quiet. So listen here. But there's more TVs

We don't have time for a snack wait. Let's keep going. So down to the basement a lot of our labs right here

So we have learning centers and labs with computer screens especially ones with double monitors. Those are pretty cool.

So you can do all of your homework down here. A lot of classes are scheduled down here too.
