Antioch Welcomes New Community Members! Jeremy Burks '01, the new Administrative Assistant to the Department of Development and Alumni Relations, is a familiar face and a long-time Antioch community member. Prior to his position in Development, he has been working at the College as the Assistant Coordinator of the Annual Fund Phonathon, C-Shop Manager, Layout Designer for the Record, and as a freelance graphic designer. The majority of his non-Antioch work experience has been in production -- feature films, industrial films, and commercials. His current position involves a wide variety of office duties, and he is primarily responsible for assisting the development and alumni relations staff. Karen Ely, Assistant to Vice Chancellor for Development & External Relations, provides administrative and clerical support to Lois Mann, Vice Chancellor for Development & External Relations, which includes interactions with the Board of Trustees, the Capital Campaign Cabinet, donors, volunteers, and Antioch College and University staff. She comes to Antioch with over 30 years administrative/clerical experience. She was employed for 18 years by Moen, Inc., a faucet manufacturer in North Olmsted, OH and supported the Vice President of Retail Sales and the sales department as Field Sales Coordinator. Most recently Karen moved back to Ohio from Englewood, CO where she was office manager and then executive assistant to the Vice President of Marketing for Jones Cyber Solutions, a telecommunications software company. Steven Hoffman, Visiting Assistant Professor of Environmental Studies, received his PhD. and MS in Land Resources/Environmental Studies from the University of Wisconsin, Madison, and his BA in Political Science from Haverford College. In the past few years Steve has been consulting full-time. Most recently, he has been working with Organic Crop Improvement Association (OCIA International) doing extensive consulting with a focus on "bridging" for OCIA International and OCIA Japan. Steven also served as a Visiting Assistant Professor in Antioch Education Abroad's program in Japan in 1998. David Kammler, Visiting Assistant Professor of Chemistry, is currently working on his PhD. in Organic Chemistry at Indiana University and will complete the program summer 2003. He did his undergraduate work at Harvard University. David has been teaching chemistry courses at Indiana University for the past several years. He is also the recipient of the Teaching Excellence Recognition Award, the Kratz Fellowship and the Metzner Award. Beth Krisko, Volunteer Coordinator at the Glen Helen Ecology Institute, oversees operations at the Trailside Museum. She came to the Glen in August 2001 as a graduate intern to conduct a plant community inventory. Beth mapped and assessed the current plant communities of Glen Helen Nature Preserve. This research was the last component for a Master's in Environmental Science from Miami University. As the Glen Helen Volunteer Coordinator, she is able to use her science background to train volunteer hike leaders, work with other volunteers on land management problems (such as invasive species removal), and create educational displays for Trailside Museum. Aaron Michael Lampman, Visiting Assistant Professor of Anthropology, is in the PhD. program at the University of Georgia in Ecological Anthropology, and he received his BA in Cultural Anthropology from New College, University of South Florida. Before accepting this position at Antioch, Aaron taught anthropology courses at the University of Georgia and was a graduate research assistant for the Maya Health and Nutrition Project at the Ethnobiology of Health Laboratory, University of Georgia. Aaron's research interests include ecological and environmental anthropology, ethnobiology, cognitive anthropology and Latin American cultures with a focus in Mesoamerica. Indra Leyva-Santiago, Assistant Director of the Annual Fund and Alumni Relations, assists in the development and coordination of alumni events, the Annual Fund campaign, Reunion, and phone-a-thon. Indra came to Antioch College from Mexico six years ago as the Spanish T.A. After three years as a teaching assistant, she moved to the Financial Aid Office as the Student Employment Representative, and later became a Financial Aid Counselor. She began working for the Development Office in September of this year. She is currently pursuing her Master's in Management at Antioch University McGregor. Rachel Moulton '97, Assistant Director of the Academic Support Center, has been with Antioch for the past two years as Visiting Assistant Professor of Creative Writing and holds an M.F.A. from Emerson College in Boston, Massachusetts. She has worked with Antioch Education Abroad, the Antiochian, and the Dean of Faculty. She continues to contribute to the creative writing program and is one of two advisors for Livermore Street, the student-run literary magazine. Due to the generosity of Stanford B. Friedman '53 and his wife, Esther Hyatt Wender, who provided the stimulus to expand the popular and essential Academic Support Center, Rachel joins Elizabeth England-Kennedy, Director of the Academic Support Center. Grant Rich, Visiting Assistant Professor of Psychology, received his PhD. and MA, both in Psychology, from the University of Chicago and his BA in English from Oberlin College. Grant's primary research interests include consciousness, positive psychology and creativity. He has published on many topics including the anthropology of consciousness, creativity, health psychology, and massage therapy. Before accepting this position, Grant taught at Bates College, OSU, and Antioch (he taught psychology courses in a visiting position during 1997-98).
