A unique partnership has been established between Saginaw Valley State University, a Midwestern university, and Computer Network Solutions, a New York-based managed-service technology provider. Not only will students be able to apply theories learned within coursework to authentic, practical use, but the corporate partner is also able to take advantage of resources and expertise of the university. Other benefits include the introduction of current pedagogy and methodology to the existing workforce. No longer are internships bound by geographical ties; e-learning students can take advantage of opportunities afforded to them virtually. The presenters will focus on the details behind the initial stages of this win-win collaborative as well as the benefits specific to both institutions. Lessons learned from the initial stages of the partnership that may inform similar, future partnerships will be addressed, and the potential role of such partnerships in higher education settings will be discussed.

The message of digital citizenship needs to start early in the education process and be reinforced at every level. It is essential to embed these lessons of ethics within curriculum. Teachers need to be leaders of digital citizenship in their respective schools and communities.

We came together not only in an intellectual endeavor, but also in the need to express and nurture both our personal and combined journeys. We use the phrase woman\u27s journey to describe a separate and sacred path present in the depths of all women that reveals itself only to the extent that it is received and pursued. We, as women, are both dedicated to the pursuit of our individual journeys and, in part, actualize that pursuit through putting words to the experience and expressions of feminist theology. Our approach to this paper stems from our experiences in relationship with each other, with other women, and with the observations and insights of written and oral resources. We have included examples of our own experiences, as well as those...
