National Speaker Coming to SJCA Upper Campus! 1/17/2011

We are pleased to announce that a Catholic national expert, from our diocese, will be visiting the SJCA upper campus to discuss digital technology safety and responsibility. He will visit on Monday, January 17, 2011.

Mr. Eric Szatkowski will address the middle school and high school separately, each for approximately 60 minutes. His presentation will include the following, modified for the appropriate age level:

Young people will learn the value of being safe and respectful online and using their cell phones, as well as the real-life consequences of making bad decisions in the digital age. Real case examples will demonstrate the risks of online predators, social networking sites like Facebook and My Space, sexting and texting, cyber bullying, and online gaming.



About Eric Szatkowski
Eric Szatkowski is a Special Agent with the Wisconsin Department of Justice/Division of Criminal Investigation for approximately 20 years. He’s currently assigned to the state’s Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force in Milwaukee.
Eric’s dynamic presentations on Internet and cell phone exploitation of children have been seen by more than 20,000 people in Wisconsin and the US. Audiences include police officers, prosecutors, child welfare advocates, correctional and social workers, civic groups, business professionals, doctors, parents, and middle school and high school students.
He has been a guest on the Tyra Banks Show in Los Angeles and CNN Tonight with Connie Chung in New York City. Eric has also appeared on “Living Our Faith” with Milwaukee Archbishop Timothy Dolan (currently Archbishop of New York), and has been interviewed by countless newspapers, radio and television stations across Wisconsin and the Midwest.
Eric’s presentations inspired the drafting and passage of new legislation in 2006, Wisconsin Assembly Bill 942. This law significantly increased the levels of felonies for online child exploitation, increased maximum prison penalties, and implemented presumptive minimum prison terms for online predators. In 2010, he organized and coordinated the first week-long schools for WI DOJ to train police officers in the investigation of online child exploitation.

University of Dayton Question Mark Competition

The University of Dayton announces its Question Mark Competition!

The University of Dayton is devoted to the search for knowledge — a search that begins by asking big questions. We believe asking questions enriches people, communities and even the world. This inquisitive outlook is what college — and life — is about. So as you prepare to embark on your college journey, tell us about the topics that pique your curiosity and the question you have always wanted to answer.

Upload a video explaining, showing, telling, singing or cartooning what your question is — and how you would go about investigating it if you had the opportunity to do so. Share your video with friends and family through Facebook, Twitter, e-mail or word-of-mouth, and collect as many votes as possible between February 1 and March 31, 2011. The 10 videos with the most votes will be reviewed by a committee at the University of Dayton, and the top three videos will be awarded prizes towards the investigation of their questions and the grand prize winner will receive a $40,000 scholarship to the University of Dayton
