about the original mural. He subsequently
uncovered a photograph of the original

educational purposes.
Constitution Week will feature an addi-
tional constitutional event as well; a con-
stitutional debate, “225 years: is it time
for another constitutional convention?”

In 2009, Hudachek-Buswell and Matos
were part of a group of women faculty
members at Clayton State in the disci-
plines of science, technology, engineer-
ing, and mathematics who decided to start
an organization for female students called
WiSTEM, an organization that has since
grown into one of Clayton State’s most
notable advocacy groups.
“We saw the need to mentor and encour-
age women in these fields,” said
Hudachek-Buswell at that time. “We have
gathered women faculty from each of
these areas to mentor and cheer Clayton
State University women who have a need
to connect with other women in these dis-
ciplines.”
In example and in action, Ride was one of
the foremost role models for the students
Hudachek-Buswell mentors.
“On July 23, 2012 we lost one of our
finest leaders, and explorers,” she says.
“She founded Sally Ride Science™ in
2001 to foster student interest in science,
technology, engineering, and math educa-
tion through innovative classroom materi-
als, programs, and professional develop-
ment. The corporate mission of Sally Ride
Science™ is to make a difference in girls'
lives, and in society's perceptions of their
roles in technical fields.
“Dr. Ride embodied the best of what we
all aspire to be, she will be missed.”
College of Health Dean
Authors Article for Robert
Wood Johnson Foundation
By Erin Fender, University Relations
Dr. Lisa Eichelberger, dean of the College
of Health at Clayton State University, who
also serves as co-lead of the Georgia
Nursing Leadership Coalition, recently
authored an article for the Robert Wood
Johnson Foundation (RWJ).
“As I told this
year’s graduating
class at Clayton
State University, I
truly believe this is
the most exciting
time to be a nurse.
One of the reasons
is the release of the
Institute
of
Medicine’s nursing
report and the support for nursing from
the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and
AARP,” said Eichelberger.
Eichelberger in recent months has spoken
with former Surgeon General David
Satcher, MD, PhD, Louis Sullivan, MD,
former secretary of the U. S. Department
of Health and Human Services, and for-
mer Ambassador Andrew Young, BS,
BDiv about IMO’s release discussing the
future of healthcare report.
“I felt such pride in being able to talk to
General Satcher, Secretary Sullivan and
Ambassador Young about the IOM
`Future’ report, which was published by
such a prestigious organization,” said
Eichelberger.
