RADIO PERSONALITY TO OFFER WORKSHOPS

DEAL, NEW JERSEY-October 5, 2010:  “Jersey” Judi Franco, Veteran Radio Personality, Formerly of New Jersey 101.5 FM radio and currently of 770 AM WABC Radio, is offering a 6-week workshop teaching valuable verbal skills for today’s job market. The workshop is open to those seeking employment, changing careers, or who need to have an edge on the competition in their current career by communicating effectively. It is also geared toward college students, who want to improve their speaking ability for career preparedness or for life in general.

Franco, who has been teaching and coaching for over 20 years, believes that the current economic climate necessitated this type of targeted learning. “I always loved teaching, but being involved in talk-radio for so many years made me acutely aware of how important it is to express yourself well. On the radio, we made assumptions about people according to how well—or how poorly–they spoke..like it or not, that’s the way people operate.”, Says Franco. Young people are especially lacking in communication skills, she says, because of texting, emailing, etc. “Whether you’re preparing for an important interview, or just trying to keep your skills sharp, you can’t underestimate the value of your verbal skills. In a competitive environment,” she continues, “the way you speak can either make you or break you.”

Classes for adults of all ages, as well as high school and college students, begin in early February in Deal, NJ and cover everything from “How to sound smarter than you are” to “The best and worst things you can say in an interview”

Dr. Mitchel B. Wallerstein

President of Baruch College

Dr. Mitchel B. Wallerstein became the President of Baruch College of the City University of New York on August 2, 2010. Baruch College is home to the nation’s largest collegiate business school as well as prominent Schools of Arts and Sciences and Public Affairs. It is known as one of the most diverse schools in the United States with a total student population, undergraduate and graduate, of approximately seventeen thousand.

Prior to his appointment as president of Baruch College, Mitchel Wallerstein was the Dean of the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs of Syracuse University from 2003-2010, where he also held an appointment as a tenured professor of political science and public administration. The Maxwell School has been ranked by U.S. News & World Report for the past seventeen years as the nation’s leading graduate school of public affairs. The Maxwell School also serves as the social science division of Syracuse University, annually teaching more than 5,000 undergraduates and approximately 850 graduate students in eight disciplinary departments.

Prior to joining the Maxwell School, Mitchel Wallerstein was Vice President of the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation in Chicago, Illinois, which is one of the world’s largest philanthropic organizations. From 1998-2003, Dr. Wallerstein directed the Foundation’s international grant making program, known as the Program on Global Security and Sustainability, which makes more than $85 million in grants each year throughout the world in the areas of international peace and security, conservation and sustainable development, population and reproductive health, human rights, and issues related to globalization.

Mitchel Wallerstein was appointed by President Clinton in 1993 as Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Counterproliferation Policy and Senior Defense Representative for Trade Security Policy. During his five-year tenure in the Department of Defense, he dealt with nuclear, biological and chemical weapons proliferation issues, and he helped to found and subsequently co-chaired the Senior Defense Group on Proliferation at NATO. In January 1997, Secretary of Defense William J. Perry awarded Dr. Wallerstein the Secretary of Defense Medal for Outstanding Public Service, and he subsequently received the Bronze Palm to that award in April 1998 from Secretary William Cohen.

Prior to his government service, Dr. Wallerstein was the Deputy Executive Officer of the National Research Council (NRC) of the National Academies of Sciences and Engineering.  The Academies are congressionally —chartered, non-profit organizations that advise the U.S. Government on policy matters involving science and technology. While at the NRC, he directed a series of highly acclaimed studies on issues pertaining to science, technology and national security.

In addition to his seven years on the faculty of Syracuse, Mitchel Wallerstein’s academic career has included five years on the faculty at M.I.T., as well as an earlier tenure track appointment in the Department of Political Science at Holy Cross College in Massachusetts. He taught on an adjunct basis in Washington, DC at the Elliott School of George Washington University; the Walsh School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University; and the Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies at the Johns Hopkins University. Immediately prior to joining the MacArthur Foundation in 1998, Dr. Wallerstein was a Distinguished Research Professor at the National Defense University in Washington.

Mitchel Wallerstein is the past president of the Association of Professional Schools of International Affairs. He is an elected member of the Council on Foreign Relations and the International Institute for Strategic Studies. In 2006, he also was elected a Fellow of the National Academy of Public Administration.

Mitchel Wallerstein is the author of numerous books, articles, monographs and research studies. His most recent (co-authored) book deals with strategies for combating terrorism. He also recently published an article in the prestigious and widely-read journal, Foreign Affairs. President Wallerstein holds Ph.D. and M.S. degrees in political science from M.I.T., a Masters in Public Administration (MPA) from the Maxwell School of Syracuse University, and an A.B. from Dartmouth College.
