Anterior Cruciate Ligaments
By Alexis Jenkins
Alexis Jenkins definitely is very active from the start. Sports have always been her passion; growing up, you could always catch her outside at the softball field playing with her high school, tournament team, or family. This all was until she had an almost career-ending injury occur not just once but twice. Luckily, she could continue to play two years of college softball, but she always wondered why tearing your ACL, also known as your Anterior Cruciate Ligament, was such a big deal. Now years later, she is a Senior here at Millersville studying Sports Journalism. After graduation, she plans to work her way into the ESPN world to eventually become an ESPN Broadcast Journalist.

The Production of an Online Portfolio and its Effects on a Future Job Search in Education
By Aaron Cook
Aaron Cook is a Senior year English Education major at Millersville University, a passion he has pursued for the better part of the past decade. He constructed this presentation in part for his Digital Portfolio course, but primarily for his own enlightenment on the topic of just how a professionally documented portfolio might positively affect the application process and general job-hunting efforts of a newly graduated teacher-to-be. As such, he intends to take the lessons learned from this experience, the same lessons he hopes to impart with his presentation, and put them to work in achieving his long-time dream of teaching English, not just on American soil, but abroad, enriching his own life as well.
