<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The University of Oklahoma, Norman, provided the venue and much help to produce <span style="color: #0b5394;"><span style="color: #0b5394; font-weight: bold;">Oklahoma Mentor Day 2018</span></span>, themed "Mentoring Champions." Seventy-four mentors were honored for their outstanding service to Oklahoma youths from elementary through postsecondary schools. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hosting Oklahoma Mentor Day at a university allows mentees and others to have direct contact with professors and students and a college visit. Four hundred attendees enjoyed the day's events.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Thanks to the University of Oklahoma faculty and staff as well as other volunteers for this adaptable, scalable model for educational activities. Even a high school could offer similar activity tables for middle school or other students. Activities and engagement by excited instructors and students are the keys to success.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Over 12 months ago, the planning began for the development and execution of a community-based mentoring and leadership program for the youth of Cache. The hard work and commitment to our youth was rewarded on Tuesday evening, August 21st at the BEST! (Building Extraordinary Success Today) Mentor Match Event. Twenty 5th-8th grade youth who were selected to participate in BEST! met with their chosen mentors for the first time.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Rhonda Clemmer, program coordinator, shared that one in three youth grow up without a mentor and BEST! is designed to do its part to change that statistic for the better. She also stated that she likes to call the mentors "nurturers of possibilities" because she believes the mentors can plan an instrumental role in their success as they navigate the next 5-10 years.</span><br />

John W. Gardner and the work from the Gardner Center, Stanford CA. The
curriculum in the handbook is in-depth in areas of soft skills but lacked in
areas of values, morals and ethics," said Hill. This is the piece upon which Bohannon and Hill collaborate symbiotically and synergistically.</span></div>

towns in southwest Oklahoma, Frederick had a "golden age" from the 1940s to the 1960s.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Now, it seemed the town’s best days were
behind it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The question was asked, “If
we achieved excellence once, why can’t we now?”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>And in a defining moment, a group of Rotarians decided to reach beyond
what seemed possible and craft a plan to once again “own” the city’s
future.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It wasn’t a matter of asking for
permission from the government, or finding grants or benefactors.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It was a matter of identifying and
prioritizing those factors that would make people want to live in our town, and
raising private, local funds to make those factors real.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We began the hard work of becoming more than
we were.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

neighborhoods and even to different towns to get their kids into top-tier
schools.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We believed that we could make
Frederick Public Schools a regional magnet.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Professional people could continue to work in the three larger cities around
us but live in Frederick and put their kids in Frederick Public Schools. The
goal for us was to provide a superior education, along with a superior learning
experience for our kids…to equip them to compete aggressively and confidently
in a big world.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Along with that we
became intentional about leveraging some of the natural benefits to kids from
small-town living…strong identity and accountability, more leadership
opportunities, more one-on-one mentoring/teaching access, and greater safety. In 2018, we believe that we are winning.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We can point to one set of factors and four initiatives
that have made the difference:<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span face=""arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif">1.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We started with a school administrative team
that is extraordinarily gifted in vision, creativity, flexibility,
resourcefulness, good management, and integrity. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Shannon Vanderburg is our superintendent; Randy Biggs, our high school principal; Jeremy Newton, our middle school
principal; and Kay Cabaniss and Janice Crume, our elementary and Pre-K directors. The room for improvement was largely in the
faculty.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Through natural attrition,
well-recruited/vetted hires, and, some believe, a good bit of Providence over a
period of about six years, our faculty is now made up (almost entirely) of over-achievers
and super-stars.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We treat our teachers
as heroes in our town because we know that all they have to do to get healthy
pay raises is to drive 30 miles (to Texas).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span><br />

Chapman</span></b></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">. I first worked for him in England when I was a young fighter
pilot, and he was my wing commander (three levels above me). I was assigned to
qualify him in the fighter aircraft that we flew at that time, the F-101, a
very high-performance fighter that was unforgiving, and not easy to fly.
General Chapman had been a fighter pilot flying P-51s in WW2 and had shot down
three German fighters. He was an experienced fighter pilot, but he had
never flown the F-101, and my job was to teach him. I approached my
assignment seriously and I worked General Chapman very hard because I wanted
him to learn to fly our F-101 and not kill himself. He got annoyed with me
for working him so hard, so he challenged me to a game of handball, and we
played handball every day for about three weeks. I won every game.
So, General Chapman decided I was worth taking on as a prot</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">é</span></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">g</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">é</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">. He gave me wise
advice that I did not like to hear at the time, but I followed it, and it put
me on a path to become a commander, many years later, like General Chapman.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">My second mentor was </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><span style="color: #0b5394;">General W.L. (Bill) Creech</span></b></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">,
for whom Creech Air Force Base in Nevada is named. I was a Colonel when I met
General Creech. He was a 4-star General and Commander of Tactical Air
Command (TAC), the largest combat training organization in the Air Force at
that time. It has since been reorganized and renamed Combat Air
Command. General Creech asked his subordinate commanders to nominate
their best Colonel for him to interview for key jobs. My commander, Lt. General
Arnold Braswell, nominated me to General Creech, and I was summoned for an
interview. I must have pleased General Creech, because he assigned me to
command the worst fighter wing in the entire Air Force (his words). That
changed my life because that is when General Creech became my mentor. He
didn’t want the “worst fighter wing” to fail. General Creech told me to
“make it better,” and he gave me broad latitude to do whatever I needed to do to
make it happen. Together, the men and women of the 366 Fighter Wing at
Mt. Home Air Force Base Idaho and I, made the wing one of the best, if not the
very best in the Air Force, in every way it could be measured. I was
their leader, but I soon discovered that, more importantly, I was their
servant. It was a rewarding assignment, probably the best I ever
had. That led to a series of command and staff assignments that General
Creech assigned me, and in all of them, General Creech was my mentor.</span></div>

Photos of attendees are below.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Read more about Major General Holmes and those mentors in his own words in the following post.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><span style="color: #0b5394;">Brigadier General Chapman</span></b>, the senior officer and experienced fighter pilot, was being taught by Holmes, a subordinate. Holmes assigned Chapman a lot of work to service the plane and to learn to fly it. Subsequently, Brigadier Chapman gave Holmes advice that shaped his career.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><span style="color: #0b5394;">Brigadier General Creech</span></b> taught then Colonel Holmes to achieve "Excellence in Everything." He also gave Holmes the opportunity and responsibility to make the world a better place.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">In small groups, ask what can we do better? What would you do?</span><span style="color: #990000; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">General Creech a</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">ssigned General Holmes a lot of work, gave him opportunities to learn and achieve--or fail--in addition to advice and resources.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">For example, at the Idaho base, the weather was so cold that warming huts were placed near the flight line, but there were no lights. Poor lighting resulted in poor aircraft maintenance. Lights, costing $1,000,000, was a low priority. To get lights, General Holmes examined the budget and showed a way to redirect money for lighting. With appropriate lighting, maintenance quality improved.In addition, to fix up the facility, Colonel Holmes, who did much work himself, became the "painting colonel."</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Ask questions. Go outside the lines or rules.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Be creative. Change the rules. Ask for waivers. Don't break the rules.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Look for opportunities to put excellence in everything. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Look for mentors.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">When you graduate, live frugally. Save "go to hell money." When the boss tells you to do something that violates your principles, you can leave.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><span style="color: #0b5394;">Leadership</span></b> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">A leader establishes a climate where people can tell him [her] that he [she] is wrong, talk about it and allow both sides with courtesy and respect to tell the <i>why</i> of their positions. Welcome disagreement.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><span style="color: #0b5394;">Manners </span></b> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Example: Bud Wilkinson, <span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">head football coach at the University of Oklahoma from 1947 to 1963, compiling a record of 145–29–4, always wore a suit and tie to the football games as if to a business meeting.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">Manners carry over into the workplace. In the workplace, keep politics and divisive things private until they can be discussed with someone [safe.]. Divisiveness can be penalized. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">General Holmes referred to George Friedman's <i>Huffington Post</i> article <a href="https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/manners-and-political-life_us_59de40a6e4b0df59e2613db7">Manners and Political Life</a>.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This year's event was even more exciting since the foundation has a new executive director, Ashleigh Gibson. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Ashleigh, who actually began the Goodwill GoodGuides Mentoring Program for Goodwill of Central Oklahoma, was subsequently a Mentor of the Year in 2016. She is an enthusiastic, accomplished, smart addition to advocate for and direct the foundation. </span><br />

In 1995, John, her father, had retired from the army after 22 years. Although a decorated veteran, he found getting a job hard. A law enforcement department offered him a job, but he had to be CLEET certified. John Curtis drove from Drummond to Oklahoma City four days a week for the training. An anonymous donor donated money to make this training possible. In 1996, John completed the training and walked across the stage in the Metro Tech auditorium. As a police officer, he felt he had helped others. He had became a sheriff's deputy and a licensed minister. </span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">On Saturday, the final day of camp, campers are recognized in front of friends, family and the public. The awards ceremony is a joyous occasion for all, especially the proud family members. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">By now the campers have not only been exposed to so much exciting STEM, remarkable teachers and mentors, and other new topics, but they have also grown as individuals through exploring new hands-on activities, stretching their problem-solving, building self-confidence, and realizing their true potential through self-reflection as chronicled in their journals. Campers have also made many new friends, whom they will likely see throughout their high school and post-secondary careers.</span></div>

Older peers, the camp counselors who three years prior were campers themselves, are with the girls throughout the week to encourage and help campers as needed. Camp staff and volunteers are also around. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Mentors are paired with a professional or two from a
related field, e.g., electrical or aerospace engineering, education, accounting, health, etc. Groups of two to four girls will be given approximately
five minutes to visit with a table of mentors. The girls will be prepared with some questions
to help them learn about mentors and their careers. At the end of the speed mentoring, girls are given a brief chance to connect with a mentor whom they have not met previously. According to Dr. Lisa Appeddu, camp director, the girls always like to hear about:</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Education</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">What mentors do on a daily basis</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">How mentors arrived at where they are
today</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Anything personal mentors want to share, e.g., to illustrate that women can
have careers and families</span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Mentors can ask questions, too. For example, </span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Where the girls are from</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">What they like to do</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">What core course they are in (Science,
Technology, Engineering or Math) </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Their favorite part of camp so far, etc. </span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Mentors are not put on the spot or be expected to give a speech. </span><o:p></o:p><br />

bring “props” if they help to explain what you mentors do on a daily basis. Otherwise, business casual is appropriate. Mentors look forward to PWN because they are seeing, encouraging and mentoring many overachievers of the next generation.</span><o:p></o:p></div>

Along with written applications are interviews. Campers come from all over Oklahoma. [150 campers have applied for the 2018 camp in June so selection for around forty spots is difficult.] The camp offers middle school girls with ability in science and math the opportunity to see and experience new people, places and hands-on career exploration.</span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I love interacting with new people and helping my customers run their buildings more efficiently. Also, I really enjoy that every day is different and that I have control over my schedule.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">My favorite classes are the project based ones, because I can see how far I've come since the beginning of the semester and because I enjoy doing the projects. Right now I am building a robot in one of my classes, and I've really enjoyed that.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">One of the best things about my engineering classes here at OU is that I’ve made a lot of friends through these classes. It’s been nice having these friends because they understand the importance of school, so it’s easy to relate to one another and develop friendships. Another thing I like is that I have the same professors and will continue to have them throughout my college career. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I am currently the only female engineer in my office; however, my company employs many, many female engineers throughout the world. In my college classes I had a pretty equal distribution of men and women.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">In my intro classes like Calculus and Physics, the ratio of women to men is about one female to every four males. In the classes I am in now within the Industrial Engineering department, there are a lot more women than there were my freshman year. I would say the ratio now is about 1 female to every 3 males, if that. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Discrimination, in my experience, is </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">rarely blatant. Unfortunately, I do feel that it happens and I have experienced some in my career. I have had a couple bosses who I felt didn’t see me as an equal to male counterparts; however, I have also had some amazing bosses and mentors who supported me and invested in my future. In my opinion, it is important to say something if you experience something that affects you. Further, it is important to find mentors (especially female mentors) who will support you and guide you through any situation you experience. Finally, it is important that women stick together and support one another because we are laying the foundation for the women of the future! </span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I have never faced discrimination. All my professors and classmates are super supportive. However, I have faced discouragement many times, simply for being an engineer. This semester was extremely difficult and stressful because I took more classes than I should have, and multiple times I've been extremely stressed out. However, my friends were always there for me and told me that what I was doing was hard and it was okay to be stressed out. Now, at the end of the semester, I still love my major.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I felt out of place in my power and machinery class in college. and the guys definitely reminded me that it was not my strength. However, it was mostly poking fun at a city girl pursuing an agricultural major. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I have never once felt belittled or had discrimination for pursuing a degree in </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">engineering.
