MSU partners in statewide classroom technology program
Morehead State University is one of the newest partners in a statewide technology program linking
thousands of K-12 public school computers into a computing grid to support scientific research
projects at Kentucky’s universities. MSU and the Kentucky Dataseam Initiative (KDSI), a non-profit technology corporation based
in Louisville and operating in 32 school districts, announced and signed the partnership agreement
during a meeting of the University’s Board of Regents in 2006.
“This is an incredible opportunity for us to help our public school colleagues better utilize
educational technology in their instruction while we participate in some of the most exciting research
underway in Kentucky,” said MSU President Wayne D. Andrews. “We are proud to partner with
Kentucky Dataseam and Apple in this historic enterprise.”
State Rep. Rocky Adkins (82), who sponsored legislation in 2004 to devote state coal severance
funds to support the initiative in coal-producing counties, described the announcement as “another
giant step forward in realizing Kentucky’s educational and economic potential.”

FUND SPOTLIGHT
“Learning to See,” the fifth sculpture in the Stephen Tirone Sculpture Concourse, was dedicated at Homecoming 2006. This sculpture, the first to depict an African-American student, was sponsored
by Citizens National Bank and dedicated to David H. Dorton Sr.,
a banker and civic leader in Paintsville. Dorton served on the MSU
Board of Regents from 1962-68; he died in March 1972. The model
for “Learning to See” was Porsha Batts, a junior at Johnson Central
High School. Her parents are Myron and Katherine Batts of Paintsville. The sculpture was constructed by Stephen Tirone, MSU professor of art, with the assistance of Brandon Davis, Morehead junior,
and La Krisha Brown, Hazelwood, Mo., senior. The Sculpture Concourse, a joint project of the Caudill College of Humanities and the
College of Education, was established in 2002 to visually demonstrate the link between the fine arts and education and to recognize
the University’s historic mission of teacher training.

agreed with Berea College president William Goodell Frost and
others in their interpretation of the mountaineers as “a people of
arrested civilization,” living much as their ancestors had generations
earlier. In her speeches and in her book Moonlight Schools for the
Emancipation of Adult Illiterates (1922), she used the rhetoric of
Appalachian worthiness to justify the time, money, and energy
necessary to bring this group into the twentieth century. A “noble
people,” the mountaineers stood eager and hopeful, “anxious to
enter in and take their part in the work of the world,” she wrote,
citing Theodore Roosevelt’s description of the hardy Scotch-Irish
Presbyterian backwoodsman in “Winning of the West.”
ABOUT THE ARtIST:
Bell is an artist and instructor of art at MSU. She enjoys all forms of
making art but her passions include drawing, painting, printmaking,
photography and sculpture. Her inspirations come from nature,
whether it is taking forms from nature or being true to the nature of
her materials.
“It is important to my work to let it be what it is and not
hide the technique. This means including things otherwise
seen as imperfections such as thumbprints or roller marks.
These organic elements keep a print alive with vitality and
human err.”
- [J. Bell]

SPRING 2007 • 23
SPRING BREAK: SPRING BACK 2007
Gulfport, MS • Hazel Green, KY • Louisville, KY
YOU CAN Make a difference!
During spring break, March 18-24, MSU is
offering three options that will assist three different communities.
Students will have the opportunity to
continue their efforts in Gulfport doing
hurricane relief; in Hazel Green, helping with
a residential build and repair; and in Louisville,
aiding an urban outreach.
Fifty students will be going to Gulfport. The
cost of this year’s trip is $190, which covers all
food, housing and travel. MSU is returning to
the region because there is still much work to
be done.
YES! I WANT
TO Make a
difference!
With regional stewardship in mind, 25
students will travel to Wolfe County to renovate
campus buildings at the Hazel Green Academy
and make repairs to community homes. The
trip cost is $110, which includes all housing,
meals and transportation.
Twenty-five students will also travel to
Louisville to provide urban outreach and community development. The trip will cost $130.
Donations can be made to the MSU
Foundation, Inc. for need-based sponsorships.
