Updating all your assignment and quiz dates can be time-consuming, so this week’s tip contains two tricks for managing assignment dates more efficiently.
On October 12, 1985, a 6-foot egg (constructed by ÌìÌì³Ô¹Ï State technology students) was rolled onto the 50-yard line during halftime of ÌìÌì³Ô¹Ï State's Homecoming game at Dix Stadium. Earlier in the day, the egg rode in a nest down Main Street in the Homecoming parade, on a float with ÌìÌì³Ô¹Ï State cheerleaders. In a cloud of smoke at midfield, the egg hatched and Flash the Golden Eagle (eaglet) emerged. "Baby Flash" is shown here, shortly after hatching, with an actual golden eagle, also named Flash, who appeared at select ÌìÌì³Ô¹Ï State athletic events until the mid-90s....
Congratulations to Dr. Veronica Dexheimer for her recent publication in Physical Review Letters and editor's suggestion in Physical Review C. In her first paper, Dr. Dexheimer and collaborators demonstrated a new way to determine the equation of state that describes the interior of neutron stars by using data extracted from LIGO and Virgo detections of the gravitational waves produced by neutron star mergers. These gravitational waves encode the neutron stars’ tidal deformability, a measure of how much the stars deform before merging, which is associated with their ...
A familar figure from the Office of the President was on Risman Plaza last week to get runners "all shook up" and ready to begin the Rainbow Run 5K.

To learn more about the LGBTQ+ Emergency Fund, and to donate, visit: /lgbtq/financial-support. ...
Greetings! Since early August, I’ve been filling the role as interim dean and chief administrative officer for the ÌìÌì³Ô¹Ï State Columbiana County Campuses and learning to navigate between the two campuses, as well as with my home campus in Tuscarawas County. I’ve been welcomed in supportive and reassuring ways, confirming that the East Liverpool and Salem campuses are willing to maneuver through changes and embracing the future with a spirit of determination. Technology certainly makes it easier for me to manage multiple locations, but I assure you that the faculty, staff, administrat...
Two Syrian immigrants who met by chance when one was taking an English as a Second Language class from the other, have joined forces to bring a taste of their homeland to ÌìÌì³Ô¹Ï diners. Tahini! Mediterranean Cuisine opened Sept. 6 in the basement level of the ÌìÌì³Ô¹Ï Student Center inside the Rathskeller, a hangout space for students that reopened this semester after being closed for several years. Ayham Abuzeid and Layla Alchaer, both of ÌìÌì³Ô¹Ï, are the duo behind the new eatery, which features Middle Eastern wrap sandwiches such as falafel and chicken shawarm...
