Fom the diectos chai
One of my rst opportunities in my new position as
director is to re-activate the Student Advisory Board (SAB).
I participated in this volunteer opportunity when I was
enrolled in the MSCJ program and found the avenue to
provide input to the Distance Learning Center sta to be
personally rewarding. I realize that its dicult as an online
student to build a connection with a college campus that you
may never visit. Because of that potential lack of connectivity
between student and campus, its also dicult at times from
a sta perspective to solicit and receive feedback from our
students.
Over 60 students volunteered to serve on the SAB in
response to an e-mail request for participation. By the time
you receive this publication, we hope to have conducted
our rst introductory telephone conference and will have
given the student representatives assignments to work on
over the summer. We will be asking these representatives
questions about how we do business on a day-to-day basis
and how we can beer serve you, our customers.
I would like to extend an invitation to contact me
personally at the DLC if you ever have an issue or concern.
Alternatively I invite and encourage you to contact any of
your student representatives if you have input you believethe sta needs to hear. Contact information for your SAB
representatives will be printed in the fall edition of The
Pioneer Connection.

Taking a pint-based
couse this fall?
Loan defement eminde
If you are a print-based student and want to defer loanpayments for the fall semester, keep in mind that the
starting date of your registration can be no later than
September 2nd. Registrations that start in October/
November/December cannot be used for fall deferments.
In addition, most lenders require that you are enrolled at
least half-time in a semester to be eligible for a deferment
for that term.
The UW-Plaeville Registrars Oce submits enrollment
verications to the National Student Clearinghouse for
all loan deferments. Regulations permit the universityto verify enrollment for UW-Plaeville courses only. If
you are taking courses with UW Colleges or any other
school, verication for those courses must come directly
from those institutions, even if you have a nancial aid
consortium agreement.
If you have any questions, contact your advisor.
Financial Aid Awad Lettes in PASSBeginning with the 2012-2013 academic year, your Financial Aid Award Leer will be posted in PASS. You will receive an

them when you receive your
PASS registration conrmation.

The changes we have made in the last year make it
possible for you to access courses, your records in PASS,

This summersregistration period
marked the start of
something exciting
for distance education
students at the
University of Wisconsin-
Plaeville PASS!
Though change can be hard for some, this changehas been long awaited. As an alumnus of the
MSPM program, I am envious of all current
students. In the past, we had at least three or four
usernames and passwords to keep track of, with
just as many websites and contact names. Many
of us had a document listing all of our usernames/
passwords and what each was used for (e.g.,
registration and payment, D2L, the Advising Site,
Karrmann Library access, etc.).
One of the best improvements for students is that
you now need only one NetID (username) and
password for all UW-Plaeville sites. You can
access your courses in D2L, your records in PASS,
databases in the Karrmann Library, and your
campus e-mail all with the same login.
Other new features of PASS:
You no longer need to contact a third party
to receive information on tuition or to make
payments for courses. You can pay online andprint receipts for tuition payments.
You will nd your grades in your Student
Center in PASS. If you need your grades for
tuition reimbursement, you wont have to wait
for grades to be posted to the advising site. The
new process is faster and ensures accuracy.
Starting with the 2012-2013 nancial aid year,
you can view nancial aid information and
accept or decline oered aid in PASS ratherthan returning an Award Leer by mail.
In the coming months, you will be able to
monitor your degree progress using the
Academic Requirement Report. This report
will chart your progress toward your degree,
indicating courses completed and requirements
yet to fulll. Watch for more information in the
next issue of The Pioneer Connection.
While learning a new system can be daunting,
PASS has streamlined and simplied processes fo
both students and sta. A big thanks to all alumn
who have spoken up about ways we can improve
our student services. Without Pioneers taking a
moment to voice concerns, changes cant be made
If you are ever concerned about a process, contact
your advisor you may aect the future for all
students.
PASS simplies life for students
You can access your courses in D2L, your records in PASS,databases in the Karrmann Library, and your campus e-mail
all with the same login.

Pioneer Profile - Dion Shaw
Halfway thee
When Dion Shaw
completed his bachelors
degree in computer
science in 1997, he
had several years of
professional work
experience, in addition
to perspective from
negotiating one giant
hurdle. Regarding a
diagnosis of multiple sclerosis in his early 20s,
Dion said, It put my priorities in order. It makes
me want to help others, to give to others, to look
around and see what maers.
Years later, working as a management information
systems manager for a large manufacturing
company, and pursuing a masters degree in
project management with UW-Plaeville Online,
Dion was laid o. He spent 2009 looking for
work and volunteering with the Illinois WorkNet,
helping unemployed workers with rsum-writing
and interviewing skills.
At the Project Management Conference in
Plaeville in 2010, Dion engaged faculty, shared
his experience, and was encouraged to take a
special topics course to pursue his idea of creating
a resource for workers who want to start home-
based businesses. Dion designed, developed, and
maintains Homepreneurs, a blog that does just that.
As a recent guest on Unity Online Radios Beyond
Blind Spots, Dion discussed the importance of
researching and planning a business, explaining
that the business plan can be brief, something
to remind you of where youre going...a dynamic
document that evolves along with the business.
Dion is halfway to completing his masters
degree. He divides his time between school,
parenting, working full-time for CompUCom,
and maintaining the Homepreneurs blog. Two
years, over 400 posts, 600 comments, and 40,000
visitors later, its a valuable resource to many, and
illustrates what is possible when a person follows
his passion, identies a need, and gathers the
expertise and community to implement the plan.

Tim Strait is pitching a
curve ball to his students
this fall. As a licensed
psychotherapist,
hell blend business
and psychotherapy
into Organizational
Behavior (BUSADMIN
3530/5530). The course ispart of UW-Plaevilles
innovative Master of Science in Organizational
Change Leadership program.
While earning his masters degree in business
at Edgewood College, Madison, Wisconsin, an
instructor inspired Tim to look at organizations
through the lens of a psychotherapist.
She said, If you really want to make a high-level
impact on people in an organization, you needto become an expert on how the human mind
works and what might be causing a person to act
and react to the things that happen during the
workday. Aer all, organizations are made up of
human beings.
Organizational behavior and the study of change
are steeped in Systems Theory, Tim said. The
concept maintains that each element and each
person within an organization is interrelated
and interdependent. For example, when one
family member changes his or her behaviors, all
other family memberseveryone in the family
systemare impacted. The same can be said for
organizations. Tim will encourage students to
think of their work as a system consisting of teams,
various roles and groups, clients, and suppliers.
I want students to have the skills and abilities
to think more deeply than their colleaguesbecause they have been challenged through the
introduction of these psychological theories,
Tim said. Hopefully, we can give them tools that
others competing for the same job may not have.
In July 2009, Salary.com reported median
annual earnings for organizational development
consultants of $81,309, and to be successful in the
profession, a masters degree is nearly always a
prerequisite.
The MS in Organizational Change Leadership
program prepares students for lead roles as
change managers or consultants. Specically, the
curriculum explores the nature of change, the
change process, assessing readiness for change,
communication strategies, assessing stakeholders
and sustaining change.
What really sets our program apart is that its
part of an established institution versus a start-up
for-prot institution, Tim said. T J

William Achia sees the
signicance of supplychain management.
Sometimes, it can be the
dierence between life
and death.
At Cardinal Health, a
Fortune 20 healthcare
provider, William
was responsible for managing the supply chain
activities for a $120 million account, Cleveland
Clinic, where the importance of readied supplieswas critical.
Not having a suture availed to a surgeon on
time might have been the dierence between a
successful surgery and a person losing his life,
William said. With that in mind, the supply chain
gained a very important role. We assured our
customer that we would have whatever product
the hospital needed within a day of them placing
their order.
Specically, William measured various metrics
such as service levels, ll rates, and also vendor
management, ensuring that they had the same
level of commitment to Cardinal Health that it
promised its customers.
Its that same commitment and an immediacy of
learning that William brings to his course, Supply
Chain Management (BUSADMIN 4100/6100).
The course is part of both the bachelors degree in
business administration and the Master of Science
in Integrated Supply Chain Management (ISCM).
The ISCM program draws on the strengths of
three UW-Plaeville departments: Business and
Accounting, Industrial Studies, and Industrial
Engineering. This provides students with a
360-degree approach to supply chain management
and equips them with analytical, quantitative, and
business skills to make them beer managers ofsupply chain activitiesabove and beyond what
is currently oered by regular MBA programs.
As an educator, I cannot aord becoming
irrelevant to the needs of the marketplace. Being
a supply chain management professional, I know
that changes in standard business practices
occur almost daily, William said. Being at
the forefront of the ow of innovations and
advancements is key to delivering an education
that is relevant to the needs of studentsgraduating from college and entering an ever-
changing job marketplace.
Prior to joining UW-Plaeville, William was a
supply chain analyst for ThyssenKrupp Stainless,
a global leader in the stainless steel industry,
where he was a part of the companys evolution
from a lile-known foreign steel company based
in Deereld, Illinois, to one of the largest steel
mills in the nation. During the transition, William
oversaw the import and distribution activities of
ThyssenKrupp, including facility (distribution
center) location, driving down costs through
pricing negotiations, supply chain activities
(trucking and warehousing), and troubleshooting
vendor issues.
Throughout this whole process, eective supply
chain management helped the rm build market
share and name brand recognition, he said.
Some of Williams enduring excitement for
everything analytical is his lifelong love of trivia.
He won several trivia competitions in elementary
school and believes the fact-nding fun helps him
beer understand himself and the world around
him, making him a global citizen.

This spring, the UW-Plaeville Department
of Criminal Justice and the Criminal Justice
Association hosted the 39th Annual Criminal
Justice Career Fair.
The two-day event included several speakers
on various topics related to three disciplinesof criminal justice:
law enforcement,
corrections, and
forensics. Students
could learn more
about DNA and
drug chemistry,
pretrial services,
the Sex Oender
Registry Program,
and defensive andtactical techniques.
UW-Plaeville
criminal justice
instructors also
presented ngerprinting labs and a
workshop on interview preparation.
The CJ Career Fair is a great experience
for students at any level of their academic
career. Agencies provide recruitment and
employment information for graduatingseniors and internship information for students
looking to gain experience that can broaden
their education. Students just geing started in
the eld can benet too, as the fair highlights
the many dierent career paths within the CJ
eld: law enforcement, corrections, private
security, forensics, law, DNR, and the list goes
on, Dana Cecil, program coordinator of the
BSCJ program, said.
Keynote speaker Major Sarah Huxtable of
the Wisconsin State Patrol also emphasized
the variety within the criminal justiceprofession. As a
state trooper, there
are many dierent
job possibilities and
assignments: motor
ocers, motor carrie
enforcement, K9,
narcotics, explosives
etc. She also
discussed subject-
specic careerpaths. For example,
students interested in
math could work in
the technical reconstruction unit re-creating
crime scenes. Likewise, science students
could pursue a career in forensics.
The starting point, however, is the same.
The best way to get into law enforcement is
to have an education, Sarah said.
Most agencies have minimum
undergraduate credit requirements and
the profession demands good writing
skills. Many students who dont pass the
entrance level exam fail because of spelling
and grammatical errors. Law enforcement

involves a lot of report writing and the
defense will aack your credibility based on
poor report writing.
In addition to the speakers, over 100
representatives from local, state, and
federal law enforcement agencies discussed
internship and employment opportunities.
The Oshkosh (Wisconsin) Police Department
hoped to ll ve positions and oered a
wrien entrance examination that day to
interested students. Captain of Police Cyndi
Thaldorf said, Things that I look for in
candidates are good communication skills
somebody who can express condence
and who doesnt hesitate to ask questionsin general, good or bad. We have hired a
number of UW-Plaeville grads in the past
and they have done well. We know you have
quality students here.
The Oshkosh Police Department was only
one of many agencies with open positions.
There is a number of hiring placards on
the tables, so it looks very promising for
CJ majors in short-term and long-term
marketability of their degrees, Dedra Tentis,UW-Plaeville criminal justice instructor
said. Ive had a couple of agencies indicate
to me that they are anticipating a number
of retirements, which means even more job
possibilities for students.
For students looking to build their resumes,
Dedra said, I talked to a number of agencies
at local, state, and federal levels that have
open internship opportunities, both paid and
unpaid. So, I would encourage students to
reach out and seek internship opportunities
and possibilities. I ran into a number of
alumni who are currently working in the eld,
so there are a lot of networking possibilities.
Sarah oered additional advice for job-
seekers. When applying for positions,
students should be prepared to take an entrance, a psychological, and
a physical agility exam. In interviews, agencies really want to know:
Can you multitask, prioritize, and handle high-stress situations? A good
example [to demonstrate those skills] would be a short-order cook at
Burger King. You need to recognize what theyre looking for and draw
from your personal experiences, even if you think they may not be law
enforcement related.
The CJ Career Fair is held every spring, and online students are
encouraged to aend. Cheryl Banachowski-Fuller, director of the
MSCJ program, said, The Criminal Justice Career Day avails criminal

opportunity through which students can network and personally
connect with many dierent agencies.
The main goal of the fair is to give criminal justice students exposure

Pioneer Profile - Nancy Schneider
Intenship steeed MSCj gaduate
towad caee path
Nancy Schneider neverconsidered fraud
investigation as a career
until, while earning
her masters degree in
criminal justice, she
decided to complete
an internship with the
Department of Justice
where she worked with
the Medicaid Fraud Control Unit. The internship
is what turned my entire life onto the course that itis now on.
Aer completing her internship, Nancy was hired
by American Family Insurance as a paralegal
responsible for litigation investigations and cross
trained in insurance fraud investigations.
Eventually, Nancy earned her Fraud Claims
Law Specialist and Fraud Claims Law Associate
designations in the insurance industry. She
graduated from UW-Plaeville with honors in 2009.
Nancy was not only an excellent student, but
her ability to be successful in completing the
coursework while maintaining her high-demandwork responsibilities was superior, said Cheryl
Banachowski-Fuller, director of the MSCJ degree
program.
In December 2012, Nancy was hired by the
Wisconsin State Department of Children
and Families to do regulatory compliance
investigations in the Program Integrity Unit.
While working with an investigator from the
Child Care Anti-Fraud Task Force, Nancy decidedto get into criminal investigation herself. I love it
Its the niche that I t into.
Now a member of that same task force, Nancy
conducts criminal investigations related to fraud
in the Wisconsin SHARES program, which
subsidizes child care costs for low-income
families. Nancy will also train fellow investigator
on Internet research and proling.
In addition, Nancy is an adjunct criminal justice
instructor at Bryant and Straon College in
Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

MSCj student teaches couse on campus
This spring, MSCJ student Ann Kennedy
had the opportunity to teach The PoliceFunction (CRIMLJUS 2130) on campus
as part of an independent study course.
Ann is also a full-time police ocer for
the Dubuque (Iowa) Police Department
and has always considered teaching as a
possible career.
I love being out on patrol, so I cant see
leaving it. But, with time, Id be open to a
career that is more family orientated.
Ann started the masters program in
2011 and will complete her degree inthe fall.
Students enjoy the real-life stories.
It brings the textbook material
into perspective. So, I want more
experience before teaching again.
Although, if the opportunity comes
up when Im nished with my
masters degree, I would consider it.

to be successful in completing the coursework
while maintaining her volunteer job withCourtWatch, in which her responsibilities are

Pioneer Profile - Nate Katzenmeyer
BSCrIMINALjUSTICE
For many UW-Plaeville
Online students, earning
a degree is a juggling act.
Nontraditional student
Nate Katzenmeyer is
an exceptional juggler.
Natewho is earning
his bachelors degree
in criminal justice
balances a full-time course load, a full-time career as
a Dane County Sheris deputy, and a personal life.
How does he do it? Nate credits his success to time
management, good instructors, and his habit ofworking ahead on assignments. You dont know
what is going to happen in school, in your personal
life, and in your professional life. So, I try to work
ahead so that there are no surprises.
But Nate isnt looking to just cross o a list of
assignments. The reason I work so far ahead is
that Ive enjoyed being in the classes so much, and
I look forward to the next assignments and doing
the research and beering myself. If you put it o
things are going to get bad and youll be behind.If you get behind, you get overwhelmed, and then
you dont get as much out of the classes and your
education.
Instructor Gary Apperson noticed Nates
determination in his Criminal Investigations
(CRIMLJUS 3130) and Police-Community
Relations (CRIMLJUS 4130) courses.
Nate demonstrated drive, eort, and leadership
in my classes that helped the other students to gofor the high bar. Additionally, Nate was always
rst to turn in assignments and his work was
always very high quality.
Nate hopes to complete his bachelors degree in the
next year and continue in the masters program.
Eventually, he would like to be a K9 ocer.
C L
Students secet to success: Wok ahead
Cuent topics eseach and witing couse
Criminal justice instructor Gary Apperson will teach Current Topics: Research
Writing (CRIMLJUS 4630) this fall. The elective focuses on research and scholarly
writing.
The entire course is built around writing one research paper. In fact, the nal
exam is the completed research paper. Each weeks lesson is an easily digestible
part of the paper, Gary said. By breaking down the component portions of the
paper into small assignments, it allows me to provide very concise feedback, and
the students learn and understand each section.
Gary aims to improve students general writing skills, which will benet them in other undergraduate
courses, future masters courses, and eventually, their professional lives.
Aer taking this course, college suddenly becomes much easier, students will produce more scholarly
work that stands out and shines, and professional endeavors become more powerful, noticed, and
manageable, said Gary.

Student emains steadfast, plans to
gaduate in Decembe
It happens oen:progress toward a
bachelors degree is
interrupted for years.
Dave Wilhelmi, like
other returning students,
understands the value of
completing the degree.
Realistically, to get a job in todays world,
you have to have a degree. Most employmentapplications are now online, so if you cant check
the box that indicates you have a degree, your
application will be ignored, Dave said.
Aer three years of campus-based classes, Dave le
UW-Plaeville in 1981 to pursue careers in radio and
retail. He eventually went to work for WyoTech, an
educational institution that oers career training in
construction trades and transportation technology.
Working for an education company, its importantthat I get a degree. I would need it to move into a
directors position.
As manager of student nance, Dave worked
with students as they completed the FAFSA and
related nancial aid materials. However, recent
restructuring has put Dave into the job-seeking
category. Fortunately, back in 2007, Dave took
advantage of WyoTechs tuition reimbursement
program and began coursework at UW-Plaeville
Online to complete his bachelors degree. Heplans to graduate in December.
Dave values the connections hes made with fellow
classmates and aends UW-Plaeville alumni
events in his home state of Arizona. He remains
connected to Wisconsin by traveling to visit family.
In his free time, he enjoys golf and baseball. His
favorite team is the Milwaukee Brewers. Hes also
one of the owners of the Green Bay Packers and

Well done, gaduates!
On Friday, May 11, we honored over 100 distance education
graduates and welcomed them to the Pioneer alumni family. Nearly
100 of us celebrated at the recognition banquet in the Markee Pioneer
Student Center. UW-Plaeville Provost Miie Nimmocks Den Herde
and Executive Director of Alternative Delivery Systems Dawn
Drake welcomed our guests. Program coordinators introduced their
graduates and presented them with a gi. Our non-degree recipient
were recognized for continuing their education.
We also recognized Kari Nuszkiewicz, recipient of the Dawn Drake
Excellence in Distance Education scholarship (see p. 17), outstanding
business administration student Shannon Becker (see p. 21), and PhiKappa Phi inductees. Students, faculty, and sta enjoyed each others
company and meeting each other, many for the rst time. Stories
were shared, laughter was heard, and connections and friendships
were made.
Many of us in the Distance Learning Center speak to students on a
regular basis, but we rarely have the opportunity to put a name to a
face. The graduation banquet is one of the ways that we are able to
do that, and it is always exciting to meet graduates and their families
On Saturday, May 12, University of Wisconsin-Plaeville celebratedits 188th commencement ceremony. Graduates were honored in three
dierent commencement ceremonies throughout the day in a packed
Williams Fieldhouse.
We would like to take this time to congratulate all of the distance
education graduates on their accomplishments. A special thanks
to those who aended the graduation activities. It was a pleasure
meeting you and celebrating this milestone in your life. Best wishes
in your future endeavors, and please keep us posted on where life
takes you.

Pioneer Profile - Todd and Jessica Tadych
Two years into their marriage, Todd and Jessica
Tadych decided to enroll in the engineeringprogram and complete their masters
degrees simultaneously. Both had excelled as
undergraduates in engineering at UW-Plaeville
where they met through the engineering fraternity
Theta Tau. Both had demanding jobs in their elds:
Jessica as a soware developer for Epic and Todd
as a transmission planning engineer for American
Transmission Company. And both aspire to
management positions in the long-term.
Aer researching MBA programs, I chose thisbecause it combines the technical aspects of
engineering with management, Todd said. Jessica,
who also pursued the management emphasis,
agrees she liked that aspect and added, I wanted
to do it for myself, more than anything. I just
wanted to continue my education.
The couple took every class together and took
one class at a time, except for their nal semesterwhen they took Optimization with Engineering
Applications and International Marketing.
We regreed taking two courses at times,
said Jessica. I dont think I would have goen
through it without Todd. Some nights, I would
come home and say I know I said I was going to
work on it tonight, but I just cant. Todd would
begin working and at some point, Id join him. We
pulled each other along.
The last semester was rough, Todd agreed. We
created a spreadsheet for both classes with all of
our assignments and wed discuss how much we
each planned to do each night.
Having Jessica and Todd in his optimization class
provided a new challenge for instructor Ryan

Qualifying students can now transfer credits from four
University of California schools to the engineering
masters degree program.
For example, a student who completes a graduate certicate
in embedded systems engineering at one of the UC
extensions can transfer up to 12 credits, about four full-time
courses, to UW-Plaevilles Master of Science in Engineering
degree. The seven engineering agreements are with the
following UC extensions: Irvine, Santa Cruz, San Diego, and

Melbard as well, as he spent more time to give each of
them unique feedback. Todd and Jessica are two of my
best students this semester, he said. It is interesting
to see how the work provided by these two diers and
it is also interesting to watch them post on each other s
discussion postings. They have been very professional
throughout the course.
Many factors contributed to the couples success. Dierent
strengths: she likes math, he likes writing. A bit of
competitiveness: Jessica wasnt too happy when Todd got
100 on an exam and she got a 99. And We learned a lot
from our classmates, said Todd. Everyone comes from
dierent backgrounds and sometimes only one person
in a workgroup is familiar with a concept. Since we were
usually in dierent groups, we were able to leverage
knowledge from both groups.
Jessica and Todd enjoy traveling and aer spending their
last three summers in class, they are looking forward to
going camping this summer.
C H
Todd: It can be harder online to ask questions of other
students, but you have to communicate in the online
classroom.
jessica:On campus, those conversations happenorganically. It can be harder online, but you need to
come forward sooner because there are fewer touch
points online the professors and other students are
oen great resources. Do it quickly!
Todd:Its easy to assume that youre the only one notgeing something when you cant see the others blank
faces. If you Raise Your Hand in D2L, others will join in.**************************************
Todd:Bring your spouse along! And have a bigenough table or two couches so you each have your
own space.
jessica:Yes, in some respects, our situationwas probably easier we had a unique level of
understanding.
**************************************jessica: It will go faster than you think.

This is a fantastic opportunity for our students to gain
even deeper insight into the engineering eld through

may be, can earn their masters degree and reach their
professional potential.
