Melissa Avidano graduated from SJSU in May 2011 with a BS degree in Forensic Science with a concentration in Biology and a minor in Chemistry. As an undergraduate, she was honored as a Dean Scholar, Daniel P. Lomio scholarship recipient, San Jose State University’s General scholarship recipient, and as a Research Security Administrators scholarship recipient. She graduated in three years with great distinction and was a member of Iota Chapter, Alpha Phi Sigma, the National Criminal Justice Honor Society. Upon graduation she was selected for a summer internship with the Security and Emergency Operations Group at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL). While at LBNL she completed a research project on the Security Implications Related to BioScience Research. As part of her research she developed a model for evaluating biosecurity risk determinations. Upon the completion of her summer internship, Melissa was retained at LBNL as a Student Assistant so that she could begin to apply the model she had developed for the Biosafety Level 2 (BL2) laboratories located at LBNL. Melissa’s attention to detail and excellent analytical skills have been acknowledged and recognized beyond LBNL as she has recently been selected to go to Washington D.C. for an extended internship in the Office of Security and Emergency Preparedness within the Executive Office of the President at the White House.

A team of eight San Jose State students from the School of Journalism and Mass Communications earned national honors for their marketing plan to help increase student interest in Chevrolet cars. The team's inventive marketing techniques earned the top score in a competition involving 23 colleges nationwide. Prizes included a new laptop for each team member. Part of the marketing plan for the auto manufacturer included a chalking campaign where the team chalked a teaser message, "Where You Going?" on campus sidewalks, along with the link to a Facebook page for student interaction. The group also placed fake car keys around campus with codes that drove people to the Chevrolet and promoted “The Going Gets Easy” event, where cars were brought to San Jose State for students to check out. The team represented SJSU in the competition as part of the Chevrolet Campus Promotions Program. The program gives students real-life experience in marketing on a limited budget, while also increasing awareness and influencing car buying decisions for the Chevrolet brand. Each team was given $3,000 and had only a few months to research, implement and evaluate an integrated marketing communications campaign that would grab the attention of their peers. “Being recognized for our hard work is more rewarding than any prize we could've received,” said SJSU student Juan Luna. “Having competed against 22 other schools, and winning reassures us that we are capable of taking on real-life clients.” Luna and the other seven members of the winning team are also part of San Jose State’s Dwight, Bentel & Hall Communications, a student-run advertising and public relations agency.

Hanoi – On January 12, 2011, San Jose State University signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the Vietnam Institute of Educational Sciences (VNIES) to start the collaboration process between the two institutions. Established 50 years ago with the mission of directly assisting the Vietnam Ministry of Education and Training (MOET) in developing, implementing, and evaluating educational policies and programs in Vietnam, VNIES now plays an important role in helping MOET as well as the Vietnamese government to develop a strategic plan of education for a new area: social work. VNIES had sought partnership with San Jose State University School of Social Work because of SSW’s proven commitment to social work education in Vietnam, starting with teaching activities in Hanoi by the Director of the School of Social Work, Alice Hines, and seven other social work faculty.
Following the MOU, VNIES and SJSU School of Social Work will develop a timeline and action plan for several collaborating activities. Besides helping VNIES develop a master’s program in social work, SJSU School of Social Work will help VNIES strengthen their research capacity by hosting visiting scholars from VNIES, working with VNIES on research projects regarding child welfare and school social work, and training VNIES junior staff through SJSU’s MSW program and CASA research initiatives. In addition, SJSU School of Social Work and VNIES aim to establish a resource center to host databases, journals, textbooks, and other social work materials related to Vietnam, so that scholars, students, and people concerned with Vietnamese social work can have a one-stop shop for information. Once these activities are underway, VNIES will also work with SJSU’s School of Social Work to establish social work centers within different Vietnamese colleges and universities in order to bring teaching and research to the local communities. Through Vice President Mark Novak and CASA Dean Charlie Bullock, VNIES hopes to also establish collaboration with the school of education and other departments within SJSU campus.

Hanoi - On January 10, 2010, San Jose State University signed a memorandum of understanding with Vietnam Institute of Social Sciences (VISS), which establishes collaboration between the two institutions in training and research in social work. Representing San Jose State University at the signing ceremony are Dr. Mark Novak, Vice President (on right in photo); Dr. Charlie Bullock, Dean of College of Applied Sciences and Arts (on left in photo); Dr. Alice Hines, Director of the School of Social Work; and two social work faculty – Tuan Tran and Huong Nguyen. Based on this memorandum, San Jose State University will help VISS develop its first master’s program in social work, which will also be one of the first master’s programs in Vietnam. In addition, the two institutions hope to collaborate in developing short-term training programs as well as exchanging students and faculty in social work. Established on January 10, 2010 by a decision of Vietnam’s Prime Minister, the Vietnam Institute of Social Sciences is the only institution in Vietnam specializing in graduate education in social sciences. Their collaboration with SJSU marks a step in the strategic plan of the institute as well as the Vietnamese government in developing its very young social work profession. As for SJSU, the collaboration with VISS marks the expansion of SJSU’s internationalizing efforts in Vietnam, following the MOUs with Vietnam National University and three other universities. It also reinforces SJSU’s leading position among American universities that are helping Vietnam develop its new profession of social work. “You come at a special time, because January 10 is the birthday of our institute,” said Dr. Vo Khanh Vinh, Director of the Institute. True to the culture of Vietnam, Dr. Vo chose a “golden hour” for him and Dr. Novak to sign the memorandum in hope that the partnership between two institutions will blossom and bear good fruits.
