Greetings,
There are no more JPN club meetings for this year. However, study sessions for the JPN classes final exam will be on Friday Dec.6th. Here are the times for the 2 study sessions:
Morning study session (Hideko Tsuzuki-sensei)
Friday, Dec. 6th 10:00-11:00 a.m. 1st floor Millet atrium

Evening study session (Tomoko Tsuzuki-sensei)
Friday Dec. 6th 5:00-6:00 p.m. Millet 286
The format will be similar to the last study session. Bring your book, notes, and study guides. You can go to either study session or both as needed.

Electromagnetic Characterization of AF455 and DNA-CTMA in Various Solvent Blends

By

Jessica Hendricks
Physics MS Student
Wright State University

This work studies the electromagnetic properties of AF455, a two photon dye, DNA bound with cetyltrimethyl ammonium (CTMA), in liquid solvent blends for use in thin film optical filters. The liquid properties of the materials are believed to be transferred to the films. The solvent blends used are ratios of toluene (T) and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). The complex permittivity and permeability of the samples are measured using the short open coaxial line technique in the frequency range of 1.0 x 107 Hz to 2.0 x 109 Hz. In this frequency range, AF455 does not act as a two photon absorber. The results show there is an interaction between AF455 and DNA-CTMA that increases the real permittivity for two solvent blends (50-50, and 60-40, T-DMSO). There is also a clear conformation change in the samples with the solvents and DNA-CTMA only that is observed in the real permittivity. In the 70-30 blend, the confirmation of the DNA-CTMA is a clear helix. In the samples with less toluene the confirmation of the DNA-CTMA is a coil structure. The imaginary permittivity increases with the addition DNA-CTMA. The real and imaginary permeability are constant across all samples.

Model United Nations Alumni Society Holiday Reception

Come out to enjoy the Bolinga Black Cultural Resources Center Film Series and discuss current social and political issues in today's society!

The Wright State University Musical Theatre/Acting Preparatory Program (MAPP) presents the mid-west premiere of GOSSIP by New York City playwright, Brian Hampton and directed by Wright State University Assistant-Professor of Acting, Marya Spring Cordes and the MAPP Student Showcase featuring the work of students currently enrolled in the program.

GOSSIP is a new play about a group of high school friends that graciously befriend a mysterious and infectious new student. However, as stories are manipulated and relationships crumble, all roads tragically lead back to one place. Gossip. The cast will consist of 2 males, three females and a small ensemble of actors. In June 2013, GOSSIP was performed in New York City as part of The Puzzle: Marble’s Festival of New Work.

The MAPP Student Showcase features scenes, monologues, and songs from the semester of work directed by Jamie Cordes, Wright State University Senior Lecturer.

Study in style!  Take a break and unwind.  The event will feature 45 minute study periods alternated with 15 minute study breaks.  The Group Study area will offer “relaxation stations” throughout the room.  Students can visit the station of their choice during the break periods.  Tutoring Services will also be offering drop-in tutoring assistance.

View Final Exam Schedule

Stressed about final exams and papers? It doesn’t matter if you are the one taking the exam or the one grading it, finals week is crazy for all of us. While many would make the argument that proper planning and time management is the proper way to alleviate such stresses, there is the un-proven hypothesis that waffles make everything better. As we are scientists, the only way to deal with an un-proven hypothesis is to design an experiment. Thus, we are called to eat waffles.

The WSU Physics Waffle Fest will take place at 4:30 pm on Monday, December 9th in 201 Fawcett Hall. Come and eat waffles amongst faculty, students, and staff and take a little break to enjoy a late afternoon breakfast snack!

Speak with an academic advisor about your major and transferring to Wright State University!

Speak to an academic advisor about your major and transferring to Wright State University

the Social Work Club will meet on Thursday, November 7th, at 3:15 in the CoLA Conference Room, 162 Millett.

Do you knit or crochet or wish you could learn? Do you want to help make a difference in people’s lives on our campus and in the greater community while taking part in a centuries-old tradition of service? Join other WSU faculty, staff, and students at noon each Friday, in 162 Millett Hall.

The circle began in March 2012 and is made up of knitters and crocheters of every level, from beginners who are just beginning to learn (we will teach you if you have never knitted or crocheted before) to those who are experienced. We started out making blanket squares (which we put together to make a whole blanket) and/or whole blankets and donated them to Greene County Children Services and Michael's House, a child advocacy center in Fairborn. In fall term, we also made scarves and hats, along with blankets, and donated them to the Family Violence Prevention Center in Xenia and to Greene County Children Services. We meet every Friday from Noon to 1:00 in 162 Millett. We would love to have you join us, any Friday that you can. If you have supplies, please bring them. If you do not, we will get you started with supplies that have been donated.

Commencement

Fees due for Spring Early Registration - registrations are subject to cancelation due to nonpayment

Open and beneficial to all WSU personnel – this seminar examines change as being integral to growth/improvement by looking at: why we react to change as we do; the ‘change cycle’ we all go through; how to minimize resistance; how to maximize resilience; and how we can use change to our advantage. Registration is required. To register, contact OD and Learning at odandlearning@wright.edu or call ext. 4705.

Are you interested in learning from a more experienced person or interested in sharing your experience/knowledge with others? If yes, this seminar – open and beneficial to all interested WSU personnel – will launch the concept of formal mentoring with an organized approach to building a collaborative mentor/mentee partnership. Registration is required. To register, contact OD and Learning at odandlearning@wright.edu or call ext. 4705.
