>> Allison Hirth, Reporting: "WE'RE HERE TO HELP." IT'S A PHRASE HEARD

OFTEN AT TEXAS TECH'S STUDENT DISABILITY SERVICES.

THE DEPARTMENT, COMPLYING WITH THE AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT, PROVIDES

ACCOMMODATIONS TO STUDENTS DIAGNOSED WITH A DISABILITY.

>> Blayne Alaniz, Assistant Director: A disability is anything that impairs normal functioning.

And so, we work with learning disabilities-- dyslexia, ADD, ADHD,

along with physical disabilities, such as wheelchair bound students, hearing

impaired students, blind students, (and) psychological disabilities-- depression, anxiety.

>> Allison Hirth: BLAYNE ALANIZ IS AN ASSISTANT DIRECTOR. HE SAYS ABOUT 2,500

STUDENTS USE SDS' SERVICES EVERY SEMESTER. (THAT'S) 2,500

STUDENTS WHOSE NAMES ARE KEPT SECRET.

>> Blayne Alaniz: We're 100% confidential. It does not show up on your transcripts.

Your professor will never know what the diagnosis is-- they will just know they're registered

with Student Disability Services. >> Allison Hirth: THE ACCOMMODATIONS SDS PROVIDES ARE

SPECIFIC TO EACH STUDENT. >> Blayne Alaniz: That's what makes it unique and

that's what makes it effective is that we don't just give, you know, all students

one thing. >> Allison Hirth: THE MOST COMMON ONES INCLUDE EXTRA TIME

ON TESTS, TAKING THEM AT THE TESTING CENTER, NOTE TAKING SERVICES AND

PREFERENTIAL SEATING IN CLASS. ALL OF THEM ARE PUT IN PLACE TO

ENSURE STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES AREN'T DISCRIMINATED AGAINST. >> Blayne Alaniz: Accommodations

do that. They equal the playing field. >> Brandi Schreiber, Program Director of the TECHniques Center: We are

a specialized peer tutoring program of Student Disability Services. >> Allison Hirth: FOR NEARLY

20 YEARS, THE TECHNIQUES CENTER HAS SERVED A SUBSET OF THE SDS POPULATION.

>> Brandi Schreiber: We provide one-on-one specialized tutoring to students who have

a diagnosis of a learning disability, ADD or ADHD, and/or autism spectrum

disorders. >> Allison Hirth: BRANDI SCHREIBER, WHO'S THE PROGRAM'S DIRECTOR, SAYS 175

STUDENTS TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE CENTER EVERY SEMESTER. >> Brandi Schreiber: Almost every

semester, we have a student in every College on campus in our program. >> Allison Hirth: AND THOSE

STUDENTS ARE SUCCESSFUL. >> Brandi Schreiber: Our biggest bragging rights are

really our retention statistics because of the students that successfully complete

the program with us each semester, between 97% to 99% of them are

retained to the university the following semester.

>> Allison Hirth: THE CENTER EMPLOYS UP TO 85 TUTORS AT A TIME. ALL OF THEM ARE

CURRENT STUDENTS WITH AT LEAST 40 CREDIT HOURS, A 3.0 GPA AND HAVE DONE

WELL IN THE SUBJET THEY'RE HELPING WITH. >> Brandi Schreiber: We are a little competitive in

our application process because our program is certified through the College Reading

and Learning Association, which means we do a lot of in depth training for our tutors to provide

a certain quality of tutoring. >> Allison Hirth: BUT IT'S MORE THAN TUTORING OFFERED AT THE TECHNIQUES CENTER.

>> Brandi Schreiber: You've got an academic counselor who can kind of walk you through

the big picture issues of being a student, but then you have peer tutors who

help you understand what it's like out there-- once you're in the classroom and actually

having to learn the material and take the exams and that kind of thing.

>> Allison Hirth: THE GOAL, (BOTH) SCHREIBER AND ALANIZ AGREE, IS TO BEST SERVE ALL STUDENTS-- HELPING

THEM FIND SUCCESS BOTH INSIDE THE CLASSROOM AND IN LIFE.

>> Blayne Alaniz: We're here to help any student no matter what your

situation is. Even if you don't know that you have a disability, you haven't been

diagnosed, but you think you might, come in and talk to us.

How Career Services Can Assist You - SUNY Canton - Duration: 2:40.

>> JULIE PARKMAN: Career Services at SUNY Canton is looked at as a process and what I really tried

to do is encourage freshmen to come in to our office. But we want to develop a

plan for your career path and resumes are meant to be living documents

and they flow as you grow and assess the opportunities that you have exposed to

you your first couple of years of college. Then it becomes a check-up

and a check-in. Where do you want to go? Where do you see yourself? What kind of

opportunities? These are the questions that we can try to have conversations

about and then lead you into places where we can start doing internships,

summer jobs - any kind of opportunity to get experience. We are an applied school

here and so hands-on experience is imperative to our educational background.

>> TERRI CLEMMO: We have a Career Fair in the fall, that is open to all majors, all employers.

Our programs are well sought after. Our students are well sought after, so... But

working with employers is certainly important. It's getting them here on campus

to meet our students. The services provided by Career Services are eternal.

So, you know whether you're a freshman, you're a 20 year alum and all of sudden

you have to change a career, we would be glad to sit down with you and work over

your resume, and say okay here's what you're doing next.

>> SUNY CANTON ALUM: The Career Fair was an amazing opportunity. I know when I was looking it

helped me find an internship through the career fair I went to and with that led

to a career. >> JOSH GERLACH: I'm very impressed walking into the facility I've been to a couple of

these career fairs that SUNY Canton's put on, both as a student and as an employer

now, and it's class all the way. I mean there's maybe 25 tables here. Steady flow

of students coming out of classes, in and out of classes. Career-focused

colleges, I think, are the most important. It's not just about completing your

coursework and leaving. It's about what happens after you complete your

coursework. >> TERRI: One of the things we've tried to streamline is making it easier for

students, alumni, employers, faculty, and everybody and is to streamline it

through our Jobs 4 Roos, which is our online recruiting site. So, students can

say, "here's where I need to go to look for jobs." Faculty say, "here's where I can

go to look for jobs for my students," if they want to do so. Employers, "here's

where I can go to post a job," and employers can also seek out students.

>> JULIE: For our online students, we are actually developing a special link in our

site that will include options for Skype interviews. So we want to be able to

connect with our online student population, as well. This is an

opportunity for you to drive your career! And so, we are partners to help you

explore your career opportunities.

Overview of the U.S.Preventive Services Task Force - Duration: 2:02.

- [Narrator] Every time a primary care clinician

sees a patient, it's an opportunity

to prevent disease and promote good health.

The range of available preventive services is extensive,

and new evidence about what works

continually comes to light.

How does a primary care clinician

know the best preventive opportunities

for each and every patient?

To address this challenge, more than 30 years ago,

an independent, volunteer panel was created.

The United States Preventive Services Task Force.

The Task Force reviews all the research

on specific preventive services

and provides evidence-based recommendations.

Each member of the Task Force is a nationally-recognized

expert in disease prevention and evidence-based medicine.

Most are practicing primary care clinicians.

The preventive services they evaluate include screenings,

behavioral counseling, and preventive medications,

ways that can help prevent disease

before there are any obvious signs or symptoms.

Before a final recommendation is made, materials are opened

to scientific review and public comment.

Then, after all input is considered,

a final recommendation is published.sidered,

a final recommendation is published.

If there isn't enough evidence to make a recommendation,

the Task Force calls for more research, and each year,

reports to Congress on priority research gaps.

Every Task Force recommendation becomes a valuable

evidence-based tool that primary care clinicians

can depend on.

With the help of the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force,

primary care clinicians, their patients, and their families

have the knowledge they need to help prevent disease

and promote good health.
