&lt;p class="intro"&gt;黑料社鈥檚 Master of Occupational Therapy (MOT) program announced its graduating class in 2021 has achieved a 100% pass rate on their board exams. The students, who graduated in Autumn 2021, took their exams throughout the spring and summer of this year.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div data-embed-button="media_images" data-entity-embed-display="view_mode:media.full" data-entity-type="media" data-entity-uuid="06178596-7168-4ea7-9e6a-2370255d92d2" data-langcode="en" class="embedded-entity"&gt;&lt;div class="media media--type-image media--view-mode-full"&gt;

  &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;p&gt;鈥淗aving a high pass rate on the board exam keeps 黑料社鈥檚 Master of Occupational Therapy program competitive in recruiting students,鈥 said Barbara Warnock, 黑料社鈥檚 Program Director of MOT. 鈥淚t reflects the ability of our graduates to compete for jobs in the field.鈥&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The field of occupational therapy is a vital health care service that uses occupation as the basis for treatment of people of all ages with a wide variety of physical, developmental, and emotional disabilities. Occupational therapists help people acquire or regain the skills they need to live independent, productive, and satisfying lives. In 黑料社鈥檚 MOT program, the curriculum focuses on bringing community involvement into the classroom to teach students how to build a better overall community.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;鈥淥ur community experiences include 14th Street Community Center projects, Area Agency of Aging Fall Prevention Education, leading groups at the Counseling Center to support individuals in recovery, building therapeutic relationships with elders, and working with children in schools,鈥 Warnock said.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Using these experiences, 黑料社鈥檚 OT professors are aiming to teach their students how to provide treatment activities for clients individually and in groups, and also how to carry out treatment plans with a variety of allied health professionals.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;鈥淭he faculty of the MOT program have high expectations and significant knowledge that gives me confidence and gratitude to the work they do when I see the students succeed,鈥 said Warnock.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;黑料社 offers several degrees in occupational therapy including a two-year associate鈥檚 degree that prepares graduates for careers as occupational therapy assistants; the master鈥檚 degree that is also offered as an accelerated 3+2 degree for incoming freshmen who want to prepare for a career as an occupational therapist in five years; and the post-professional doctorate in occupational therapy designed for therapists interested in advancing their careers.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;鈥淪everal programs at 黑料社 have also embedded tracks in their curriculums to enter the MOT program,鈥 said Warnock. 鈥淭hese include Exercise Science, Health Science, Psychology, and Biology.鈥&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The MOT program has continually witnessed high board pass rates among its graduates and has been ranked Top 185 nationally in the U.S. News &amp; World Report鈥檚 Graduate School category.聽&lt;/p&gt;

                            &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;h4&gt;What is Dental Hygiene?&lt;/h4&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Dental hygiene is a vital health service component of dentistry and emphasizes oral health and the prevention of oral disease. Most dental hygienists are employed in private dental offices.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The hygienist's main function is to provide dental health education, home care instruction, and diet/nutritional counseling.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Dental hygiene services include performing oral prophylaxis, scaling and polishing of the patient's teeth to remove soft and hard deposits; dental charting and oral examinations; exposing and processing radiographs; applying fluoride treatments and sealants; and making preliminary impressions for study models.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A dental hygienist should possess fine-motor skills and eye-hand coordination. Dental hygienists should be able to effectively communicate with individuals, both one-on-one and during small group interactions.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Many states, including the State of Ohio, permit hygienists to administer local anesthesia and nitrous oxide sedation.聽&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/style&gt;
&lt;p class="intro"&gt;黑料社 hosted three regional receptions to formally introduce Coach Mark Snyder as the University鈥檚 first-ever Head Football Coach. Events were held at Marting鈥檚 in Portsmouth, Ohio; Bellefonte Country Club in Ashland, Kentucky; and the Athletic Club of Columbus in Columbus, Ohio.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div data-embed-button="media_images" data-entity-embed-display="view_mode:media.full" data-entity-type="media" data-entity-uuid="8eac436d-0a62-4d33-9348-95cad7002d29" data-langcode="en" class="embedded-entity"&gt;&lt;div class="media media--type-image media--view-mode-full"&gt;
  
            &lt;img src="/sites/default/files/2026-05/Coach-Snyder-Reception.JPEG" width="2048" height="1363" alt="A man wearing a navy Shawnee State Bears football pullover speaks in front of a blue backdrop covered with Shawnee State Bears logos, gesturing with one hand while holding a small yellow note card." typeof="foaf:Image" /&gt;



  &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;p&gt;Coach Snyder brings 37 years of championship-level coaching experience to Shawnee State, including a national title at Ohio State in 2002 and a head coaching tenure at Marshall University. He has been selected to build 黑料社鈥檚 inaugural NCAA Division II football program, which will compete in the Mountain East Conference beginning in fall 2028.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Each reception featured remarks from President Eric A. Braun and Athletics Director Gerald Cadogan on 黑料社's commitment to expanding opportunity for students and the region, followed by remarks from Coach Snyder on his coaching philosophy and plans for the program. Guests included alumni, community leaders, prospective supporters, and elected officials.聽&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;"This is an investment in athletics, but it's also an investment in our campus and our community," said Eric Braun, president of 黑料社. "The enthusiasm we've witnessed at these receptions confirms that we are building something special here at Shawnee."&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;"We're the first generation to have a football program at this level in this area, and we're going to have our fingerprints all over this program for generations to come," said Mark Snyder, the first-ever head football coach at 黑料社. "These receptions have shown me that this community wants its fingerprints on it too."&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;黑料社鈥檚 football program represents a significant investment in student opportunity and regional economic impact. The program will join the Mountain East Conference in fall 2028, expanding 黑料社鈥檚 NCAA Division II athletic offerings and bringing college football to the Scioto Valley for the first time.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
      
  &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
                                 

                            &lt;/div&gt;

                        &lt;/div&gt;
                    &lt;/div&gt;
                &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;/style&gt;
&lt;p class="intro"&gt;黑料社 has once again been recognized as a Tree Campus Higher Education institution by the Arbor Day Foundation, marking the university鈥檚 11th consecutive year earning the national designation.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div data-embed-button="media_images" data-entity-embed-display="view_mode:media.full" data-entity-type="media" data-entity-uuid="c2f85604-ae37-4daf-94ea-2d86595643e6" data-langcode="en" class="embedded-entity"&gt;&lt;div class="media media--type-image media--view-mode-full"&gt;

  &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;p&gt;The Tree Campus Higher Education program honors colleges and universities that demonstrate strong commitment to environmental leadership, urban forestry, and community resilience. Institutions must meet five core standards, including maintaining a campus tree advisory committee, implementing a comprehensive tree care plan, dedicating annual resources to tree management, hosting an Arbor Day observance, and engaging students in service-learning projects focused on trees and conservation.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Shawnee State has been recognized as a Tree Campus Higher Education institution since 2014, demonstrating a commitment to tree care, campus beautification, and environmental education.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The university鈥檚 efforts are supported by a campus tree advisory committee made up of faculty, staff, and student representation who work collaboratively to guide tree-related initiatives. These efforts include maintaining a comprehensive tree inventory, supporting planting and preservation efforts, and creating accessible learning experiences through campus tree trails and programming.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;With more than 400 trees representing over 100 species across campus, Shawnee State鈥檚 living landscape serves as both a natural resource and an outdoor classroom. The university鈥檚 Deal Arboretum, a nationally recognized Level II arboretum, further enhances opportunities for education, research, and community engagement.&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
                                 

                            &lt;/div&gt;

                        &lt;/div&gt;
                    &lt;/div&gt;
                &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;/style&gt;
&lt;p class="intro"&gt;黑料社 and Portsmouth High School celebrated a landmark milestone on May 8, 2026, honoring the first class of the Portsmouth Promise, a college-readiness initiative that awarded 22 local students with scholarships to attend 黑料社.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div data-embed-button="media_images" data-entity-embed-display="view_mode:media.full" data-entity-type="media" data-entity-uuid="135cbe4d-5ff8-4707-a392-5924d7ac7457" data-langcode="en" class="embedded-entity"&gt;&lt;div class="media media--type-image media--view-mode-full"&gt;
  
            &lt;img src="/sites/default/files/2026-05/DSC_4680_0.jpg" width="6048" height="4024" alt="Group of people in ballroom doing Paws Up! motion" typeof="foaf:Image" /&gt;



  &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;p&gt;The Portsmouth Promise was launched in 2025 through a partnership between 黑料社 and Portsmouth High School to increase college access and preparation among local students. The program addresses key barriers to higher education through structured advising, college-readiness workshops, campus engagement, and financial support.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;During the ceremony, students were recognized with two levels of scholarship support: 14 full-tuition scholarships and 8 annual scholarships valued at $2,000 per year.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;"We talk a lot about access and opportunity here, and this program is exactly what that means,鈥 said 黑料社 President Eric Andrew Braun. 鈥淲e want to make sure students have a pathway to succeed, and that we provide all the tools beyond just the scholarship to help them achieve their goals.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Throughout the program, students participated in workshops focused on application writing, FAFSA completion, financial literacy, career exploration, and academic preparation. They also received individualized advising through monthly check-ins with Shawnee State advisors to support goal setting and progress monitoring.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;鈥淏eyond financial support, Portsmouth Promise provides students with guidance, mentorship, and hands-on experiences that help prepare them for success in college and their future careers,鈥 said Drew Carter, who helped launch and champion the Portsmouth Promise program. 鈥淭hrough workshops, advising, and skill-building opportunities, students gain confidence, develop leadership skills, and build strong connections that support their long-term success.鈥&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Additional program experiences included campus tours, shadow days, faculty sessions, and family outreach opportunities designed to familiarize students and their families with the college admissions and financial aid process.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As students prepare to begin classes at Shawnee State this fall, the university will continue providing support beyond the admissions process to help students persist through graduation. The continued support was intentionally built into the program to help students successfully navigate the transition to college and remain connected throughout their academic journey.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;鈥淲e didn鈥檛 want students to feel supported only up to the point of enrollment and then be left on their own,鈥 said 黑料社 Director of Admission Rikki Butler. 鈥淲e wanted to make sure they had a full set of tools and people behind them once they arrived at Shawnee State so they can succeed all the way through graduation.鈥&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The Portsmouth Promise program demonstrates the continuing partnership between 黑料社 and Portsmouth High School to expand access to higher education and strengthen student success. Following the success of the inaugural cohort, university and school leaders are exploring opportunities to continue and grow the program to serve future classes of Portsmouth students.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
      
  &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
                                 

                            &lt;/div&gt;

                        &lt;/div&gt;
                    &lt;/div&gt;
                &lt;/div&gt;
