out operations with computer hardware and
software—like ghosting, remote services, and
networking—that solidified her passion for the
field.
After a tour of duty with the 864th in Kuwait, Iraq, and Afghanistan, Camacho left the
military in 2006 as a Sergeant (E-5), with more
than 10 prestigious awards to her name.
“I’ve experienced things that an average
person wouldn’t experience, but they’ve

L
innai-Anne Camacho has traveled an
interesting road on her way to college, and
has experienced more than the average person
might in a lifetime. Born and raised on the island
of St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands, Camacho
traveled to Puerto Rico immediately after high
school graduation and enlisted in the US Army.
Though she was offered full scholarships to
several colleges, she saw the military as the path
to maturity and independence for her and her
infant daughter.
Camacho was drawn to computers at a
young age and entered the Army as a Human
Resources Specialist with additional Information
Technology (IT) duties. Her initial assignment
was with the 122nd Signal Battalion, stationed
in South Korea. There, she served from 2001 to
2003 as both the Information Management Officer and the Promotions and Awards Specialist
at the Battalion Personnel Office.
Camacho then served with the 555th Engineer Brigade in Fort Lewis, Washington. She
spent the remainder of her military career with
At the CCSU Veterans Day Ceremony in November 2012 (at right),
Camacho was presented with the Student-Veteran Public Service
Award and Student-Veteran Excellence Scholarship from President
Jack Miller.
Reflecting on the impact that her years of
service have had on her life, Camacho said that
they have made her more appreciative of the
“little things.” “I’m more grateful for simple
things like a bathroom, a shower, the bonds
that I make with others, and true friends. Just
being able to wake up every day and look at my
kids; I love it.” Camacho is now the mother of
a 14-year-old girl, an eight-year-old boy, and a
two-year-old girl.
After completing her military service, Camacho attended Tunxis Community College, where
she earned an associate’s degree in Computer
Information Systems and graduated with a 3.9
GPA. While at Tunxis, she took many IT classes
with adjunct professors, from whom she learned
a great deal, thanks to their “real-life perspectives
on what IT is, not just theories.”

Scholarship Established in Honor of Retired Dean
of Graduate Studies
In honor of the retirement of Dean of Graduate Studies, Emeritus Paulette Lemma, a new scholarship has been established in her name. Once endowed, the Paulette Lemma Scholarship will
be awarded to a well-deserving and high achieving graduate student at CCSU who has demonstrated excellence in his or her field.
Lemma began her career at CCSU in 1988 as an Assistant Professor in Teacher Education.
From 1994 until 1998, she served as chair of the Department of Teacher Education. In 1997 she
became a full professor, and in 2001, she was appointed Associate Vice President of Academic
Affairs, Dean of the School of Graduate Studies.

a resume; Camacho humorously remarked that
hers is already too long at three full pages. In the
future, she plans to put all of her skills to work
by opening her own IT firm.
Camacho is currently pursuing a Bachelor of
Science degree in Industrial Technology with a
concentration in Networking Technology, and
a minor in Spanish at CCSU, where she is a
chapter officer of the Golden Key International
Honor Society. She chose her minor to get reacquainted with her Puerto Rican heritage and
to help teach her eldest daughter the formalities

Her enthusiasm for science and her attention
to the subtle details of logic are great strengths
for a career in physics. Krisztina also possesses
excellent organizational and team building skills
which benefit her classmates and the members
of the Physics Club where she takes a leadership
role. Whether she is making instant ice cream
with liquid nitrogen or conducting a complex
experiment with lasers and optics, Krisztina
shares the fun of physics with those around her.
In juggling her many commitments, athletic as
well as academic, Krisztina always manages to
give her best to each endeavor.”
While Dearborn’s academic achievements are
impressive, her successes as a Blue Devil on the
cross country and track teams are equally outstanding. The fact that she runs between 85 and
95 miles per week is a feat in itself. During her
sophomore year, Dearborn broke the University’s 10K outdoor record at Bucknell Invitational.
She has since re-broken the 10K outdoor record,

the 3K and 5K indoor records.
Head Cross Country and Track Coach Eric

“Krisztina has been fully invested in the program since the day she arrived as a freshmen.
She has made tremendous strides as a distance
runner—a direct result of her competiveness and
work ethic. She has a very bright future.”
Because Dearborn is paying for school on her
own, her academic and athletic success has been
vital to her college career. She considered withdrawing from the University during her freshman year, but knew that she couldn’t—completing college in four consecutive years was always
part of her life plan. Today, as the recipient of
numerous scholarships, including an athletics
scholarship, the Honors Program scholarship,
and the Computers, Math, and Physics Honors
Scholarship, she no longer faces the stress of being unable to pay her tuition.
Dearborn will graduate this spring with a BS
in physics and a BA in mathematics.

raternal twins Rebecca
(left) and Destiny
Davis (right) have much
more in common than
just their age—they were
born two minutes apart.
They are both incredibly
hard-working and goaloriented students who are
determined to graduate in
four years and make every
minute count at CCSU.
Rebecca and Destiny Davis
A Sibling Success Story
After graduating from Capital Community College
in 2010 with associate degrees in liberal arts, Destiny
and Rebecca Davis were in complete agreement when
deciding where to continue their education. “CCSU was
the closest to where we live, the most affordable, and we
heard a lot of good things from other students at Capital,”
Rebecca said.
When asked about the transition from a smaller community college to a campus of over 12,000 students, the
sisters agree that although there was some trepidation
about coming to a much larger school, the transfer process
was seamless. According to Destiny, “The professors here
are really welcoming and nice, which made the transfer
process even easier.”
The twins will graduate in May, after only three
semesters at Central. They attribute this achievement to
taking as many classes as possible per semester, not taking any semesters off, and completing assignments well
ahead of their due dates. “We have always had the goal in
the back of our minds to graduate on time,” Destiny said.
Since they are both pursuing bachelor’s degrees
in psychological science with minors in biology, they
coordinate their schedules to have all of their classes
together; this allows them to keep each other motivated
and productive. Destiny and Rebecca have 3.9 and 4.0
GPAs respectively, and they playfully acknowledge that
Rebecca usually scores a few points higher on exams.
After graduation, Destiny and Rebecca plan to study
radiation therapy in an allied health program. Rebecca
notes that everything they have been studying at CCSU
can be applied to their future education. “A psychology
degree will help us with radiation therapy, especially
with helping people and understanding them better.”
Following this, Rebecca will consider working in marine
biology and Destiny in elderly psychology. “We’re only
21 and we will soon have our bachelor’s, so we plan on
continuing from here and getting as much education as
possible while we’re still young.”
“We have always had the goal in the back of
our minds to graduate on time.”
Their strong commitment to education has earned
the sisters an excellent reputation among faculty members. “Rebecca and Destiny are the type of students that
every professor hopes to have in class. Both are frontrow students who are very attentive in lectures and who
really apply themselves. They have great attitudes and
you can tell that they really want to learn. I am proud
to have played some small role in the education of two
such promising individuals,” said Professor of Biology
Douglas Carter.
Rebecca and Destiny also have eclectic interests outside
of the classroom. While they both enjoy going to rock concerts and local plays at the Hartford Stage, Destiny likes to
draw and paint nature and animal portraits. Finding time
for these other interests can be difficult when taking the
maximum amount of classes and working multiple jobs,
but the sisters’ organizational skills and well-ordered priorities make it possible. They also understand the importance of having one another for support and friendship.
Both sisters have big plans for the future, and it’s clear
that they will find success in whatever they do.

Reverend Arthur Price
W
hen Reverend Arthur Price of the 16th
Street Baptist Church in Birmingham,
Alabama, spoke at CCSU during African
American History Month, the audience found it
impossible not to be compelled by his powerful
and emotional delivery. The event, “The Role
of Religion and the Civil Rights Movement,”
looked back on the turbulent times of 1960s
America and what is commonly referred to as
the largest social movement in the world.
Price explained how churches were the African
American community’s main sources of solidarity and social gathering during the Civil Rights
Movement.
Price’s speech served as a concise history of
the events leading up to the Birmingham
Campaign and also revealed how African
Americans held on to faith by relating their
struggles to those found in the Bible. Much like
Jesus having to go through Samaria, Martin
Luther King, Jr. had to bring his bravery and
ingenuity to Birmingham to further the nonviolent movement taking place.
African Americans “vacillated between being
in America and not being of America” according to Price, but spurred on by the victory of the
Montgomery Bus Boycott in 1955, increased the
scope and power of their non-violent protests
and organized the Birmingham Campaign in the
spring of 1963. This widely publicized campaign
brought much needed attention to their cause,
although not all of it was helpful. In September
1963, the 16th Street Baptist Church was bombed
by the Klu Klux Klan, resulting in the deaths of
four little girls. According to Price, Birmingham
was nicknamed “Bombingham” because of the
frequent terrorist attacks
at the time.
This tragedy was the
catalyst that
turned Civil
Rights into not
just the problem of African
Americans,
but of the
entire country; the bombing “pricked America’s
conscience” and served as a turning point in the
1960s Civil Rights Movement.
Price brought the lecture to a close by connecting the struggles of the past to current times.
“What are we settling for today?” he asked after
reminding the crowd of the uncompromising
attitudes African Americans exhibited during
their struggles and how that mindset must still
be used today to fight injustices. The speech was
met with a standing ovation from a truly receptive and appreciative audience that won’t soon
forget Price’s first ever visit to Connecticut.
Additional African-American History Month
events and lectures at CCSU included “Racial
Conciliation” by Thomas DeWolf and Belvie
Rooks; “The Relevance of Black Studies to
Closing the Achievement Gap in Education”
lecture from Benjamin Foster, Jr.; and the Black

Community Research Course Engages Sociology
Students with Real World Experiences

In the field:

ne of the most important facets of any
college course is that it offers students the
ability to gain real world knowledge that can be
applied beyond the walls of the classroom. This
was paramount when the Sociology Department
at CCSU began brainstorming for new course
ideas, and what emerged was the undergraduate
course Community Research.
Associate Professor of Sociology Beth Merenstein, who taught and coordinated the project
in the fall 2011 semester, stated, “We wanted
to get our students to do more service learning
and community engagement work, and gain a
stronger connection to real world experiences.
It’s important to be graduating and really understand what some of the possibilities are that you
can do with a major in Sociology.”
The program is split into two courses that
are taken concurrently and are worth four
credits each—which might seem like a large
number when compared to a typical three-credit
course—but the level of work and commitment
involved surpasses most courses.
Last fall, students conducted research for the
non-profit organization Middlesex Coalition
on Housing and Homelessness in Middletown.
The organization had awarded small grants to
low-income individuals and families who had
experienced immediate crises that could lead to
homelessness, such as their car breaking down,
prohibiting them from getting to work. The students interviewed the recipients of these grants
in order to determine the success of the funding. “The idea was that the students would do
research for non-profit organizations out in the
community that don’t have the time or resources
to do it on their own,” Merenstein said.
Merenstein and Hans Muden, one of the
students from the class who went on to intern
in the field, are in the process of analyzing the
research and data collected during the course.
Muden had only positive things to say about
his experiences. “This course
encouraged me to step outside
of my normal comfort zone
and realize some of my own
strengths and weaknesses as an
interviewer and a researcher,
and has helped me to realize
my full potential as a sociology student.” For Muden, the
course served as an introduction to many opportunities he
would not have known existed.
Associate Professor of Sociology Beth Merenstein
reviews data collected by her students as part of the
Community Research course.
In addition to the hands-on investigative
work and reporting, students were tasked with
more conventional classroom responsibilities
like keeping journals and writing final reflection
papers, which all added up to one of the best
experiences Merenstein and her students have
had at CCSU. “It was definitely the most rewarding class I’ve ever taught, and I’ve been teaching
for over 15 years. To see the students who just
soared with this level of learning—as if they
had just been waiting for this kind of connection
between the real world and what they’ve been
learning in class—was extremely rewarding for
me and for them.” Some students, like Muden,
were so engrossed by the project that they chose
to continue their education in similar fields.
Merenstein explained, “One student from the
class is continuing to work on the project this
semester, two of the students from the class are
doing internships in that field because of it, and
four of the students are doing their capstone
projects based on that course.”
Merenstein hopes to establish the course
as a regular part of the curriculum. The topic
for the fall semester has already been decided.
“We’ll be working at a homeless shelter that’s
interested in understanding what makes some
clients more successful than others; why some
people are able to leave and never go back, and
yet some tend to be chronic users. The shelter is
trying to understand their own resources, why
they’re able to help some people but not others.”
Students will conduct interviews with clients
and use the collected data to help evaluate the
effectiveness of the shelter.

Student Athlete in the Spotlight:
Aaron Radden
On Track for Success
W
hen CCSU junior Aaron Radden runs on
the track, his passion for the sport is as
readily apparent as his athletic prowess. What
originally began as a warm-up for running cross
country has turned into something much more.
“In high school, I originally ran cross country
and I did track just for conditioning purposes; I
ended up being good at it,” says Radden. “Now
it’s my main sport and I love it.”
Radden has been on the track team for the
three years that he’s been at CCSU, and his list
of accomplishments is demonstrative of his
exceptional dedication. He was the Men’s Most
Valuable Performer at the 2010 Northeast Conference Championships; at the 2011 NEC Indoor
Championships, Radden won first place in both
the 100 and 200 meter sprints; he won the 60
meter event and placed third in the long jump at
the 2011 Yale Collegiate Invitational; and since
the beginning of 2010 he has competed in over
30 indoor and outdoor competitions, earning
high marks in all of them.
“Aaron Radden is a leader. He is not an excellent
student and athlete by accident. He puts in long hours,
organizes his time wisely, and thinks deeply about his
training regimen and his class material.”
“Aaron is one of the hardest workers I have
ever been around. He continues to improve
and excel at not only the 200 meter, but all of
his events. He is a fine representative of the
University,” states head coach for CCSU men’s
and women’s cross country and track teams
Eric Blake.
Of all his accomplishments, Radden’s appearance at the NCAA Indoor Track and Field
Championships in March stands out above the
rest. He says, “Seven years of dedication, hard
work, and sacrifice finally paid off with an
NCAA Division I appearance.” His hard work
led to NCAA All-American second team honors
after he finished tenth overall. The road that led
to the competition wasn’t easy, but Radden’s
determination and the support of his coaches
earned him the coveted spot.
“Freshman year I missed a spot in the
championships by one place—that hurt a lot,”
Radden says. “After that, I sat down with the
coaches, and we made the goal this year to run a
national qualifying time, which I just happened
to run a week before nationals. That was something special.”
To the ever humble Radden, the athletic
accolades don’t matter as much as the personal
and academic accomplishments he has achieved
and the connections he has made in the CCSU
community. A psychology major with a focus on
couples therapy and family relations, Radden
balances an intense practice schedule with a full
course load, while excelling at both.
One of Radden’s most influential instructors,
Assistant Professor of Psychology Jason Sikorski (“Dr. J,” as Radden affectionately calls him),
had only glowing things to say about Radden
as a student and a person. “Aaron Radden is a
leader. He is not an excellent student and athlete

regimen and his class material. In short, Aaron is

can really use these definitions and concepts to

Unlike many student athletes, Radden took
the initiative to seek out CCSU without any
prior scholarships or grants, and with the guidance and support of his family, he gained admittance. “One huge inspiration for me was my
Uncle William. If it weren’t for him, I probably
wouldn’t be running track here. He stood up for
me and gave me a lot of opportunities, and I’m
really thankful for that,” says Radden.
continued from page 10
In the Athletic Department, Radden has
found a network of friends and teammates that
inspire him to constantly push himself to be a
better person on and off the track. Running for
the track team not only gives him personal satisfaction but allows him to stand for a group of
people that really matter to him. “To be able to
go to Nationals and say ‘I’m representing these
people’ is really important. They’re some of the
best people I’ve met in my life and I’ll probably
know them for the rest of my life. I consider
them family.”
