OnStage Success Workshop
2013-02-02 09:00 - 16:30 | Whitfield Building, Studio A
The Delta Music Institute, Delta State University’s music industry studies program, will present OnStage Success, a one day workshop on developing stage performance skills using the Tom Jackson Live Music Method. The workshop will be held on Saturday, February 2, from 9:30 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. in Studio A of the Delta Music Institute in the Whitfield Building on the campus.
Topics covered in the workshop include: overcoming stage fright, stage movement, selecting the correct songs and the correct order, and turning a group of songs into a captivating live show. Practical information and techniques that will benefit all performers working to develop a loyal audience will be taught. Additionally, one or two local artists/bands will be chosen to work through onstage issues in a hands-on mini-makeover during the workshop.
The OnStage Success Workshop facilitator will be Lang Bliss. Bliss first honed his onstage skills while touring the US and Australia, doing an average of 500 shows per year over a four-year time span, as well as having toured with major artists for over 20 years. As a trained and certified Live Music Producer for Tom Jackson’s Onstage Success, Lang Bliss will pass on knowledge, training, and experience to workshop participants. Bliss has worked as a drummer, producer, programmer, songwriter and arranger in the music industry with Michael W. Smith, Shaun Groves, Michael McDonald, and The Henningsens (recently signed to Sony Records Nashville) to name a few. Based in the Nashville area, Bliss travels internationally to work with artists and speak at music conferences.
Dove Award winner Francesca Battistelli remarked, “Working with Lang Bliss was a great experience. His instincts were spot on, and he shares his knowledge in such a helpful, creative way. I honestly can’t imagine preparing for another tour without him!”James Bryan, guitarist/songwriter for Nelly Furtado and Philosopher Kings, declared, “As a performing musician for over 15 years, I was surprised and blown away by how much I learned in just one session. It offers insight into every aspect of performance.”
The Onstage Success Workshop is valued at $150 but will be offered by the Delta Music Institute at a substantial discount. Admission is free to Delta State students/faculty with a valid ID card. For others, tickets are $40 in advance and $50 at the door.
The Delta Music Institute is an independent center of study under the College of Arts & Sciences at Delta State University, offering a B.S. in Music Industry Studies degree. The focus of the DMI is to provide students with a broad and thorough education in the technological, creative, and business areas of the music and entertainment industry. For information on registration for the OnStage Success Workshop, contact the DMI office at (662) 846-4579 or dmi@deltastate.edu.

Trials of the Earth: An Exhibit
2013-04-07 08:00 - 2013-07-31 17:00 | Capps Archives & Museum
She was mother, wife and comforter as well as "the cook, the seamstress, the housekeeper, the gardener, the hoe hand," and – finally – the author of Mississippi Delta history. In 1933, at 65 years of age, Mary Mann Hamilton was encouraged to reach back almost 50 years into her past to tell her life as one of the first female settlers in the central area of the Mississippi Delta in the late 1800’s. The resulting book, Trials of the Earth is now considered one of the definitive autobiographies in the Southern literary canon. On Sunday, April 7 at 2 p.m., heirs of Mary Mann Hamilton will be on hand at Delta State University’s Archives and Museum to present the original manuscript of Trials of the Earth to be housed at the archives and preserved for academic posterity. In celebration of the Hamilton family’s largesse, a new exhibition based on the book will open in conjunction with the presentation. Artifacts and photographs representing the life and work of early Delta settlers will be on display through July 31. The presentation and exhibit opening is free and open to the public. "We are honored that the Hamilton family has decided to house this priceless piece of history at the Delta State University Archives & Museum," said University Archivist Emily Jones. "In working with the family, I know how much they respect and cherish the history of not just their family but all early settlers of the Mississippi Delta. We are fortunate that they recognize that sharing Mary Hamilton’s manuscript will assist researchers in understanding the settling of the Mississippi Delta and inspire writers." After being out of print for nearly 20 years, Trials of the Earth is now available as a 20th Anniversary Edition and includes a new Introduction by Morgan Freeman as well as the original Foreword by Ellen Douglas and Preface by Helen Dick Davis.

When Farmer Brown confiscates his granddaughter’s laptop and puts it in the cold barn along with the shivering cows, they use her computer to type messages requesting blankets. "No blankets!" replies Farmer Brown. So the cows go on strike and the chickens join them in solidarity. No blankets: no milk, no eggs! "Cows that type?" Hens on strike! Whoever heard of such a thing!" Farmer Brown cries. Find out what happens in the hilariously "mooooo-ving" new musical about negotiation and compromise, based on the Caldecott Honor Book.

20th Annual DSU Staff Development and Appreciation Day
2013-05-14 07:30 - 16:30 | Jobe Hall & Fitness Trail
CLEVELAND, Miss. – For the 20th year in row, Delta State University’s Administrative Staff Council will host Staff Development and Appreciation Day on Tuesday, May 14 inside Jobe Hall. This year’s event, Balancing Act: Thriving Through Change, will focus on work-life balance.
“Everyone on campus deals with work-life balance and the Administrative Staff Council Executive Committee looked for a way to make this year’s Staff Development and Appreciation Day an event that would offer insights and training on how to thrive in an ever-changing educational environment,” Matt Jones, Chair of Administrative Staff Council, said.
Balancing Act will feature Amy Whitten, a renowned public speaker and leader within Mississippi. Whitten is a veteran executive manager in both the private and public sectors, who has also served the State of Mississippi as Counsel andCourt Administrator to the Mississippi Supreme Court.
She was named Mississippi’s Woman Lawyer of the Year in 2000, and also received the prestigious Stennis Award for Excellence in State Government, the Governor’s "Power of One" Award and the Mississippi Bar Award of Merit for her role in reforming Mississippi’s court system. She is a past Trustee on the Mississippi Board of Institutions of Higher Learning, the state body that oversees Mississippi’s eight public universities and their 65,000 students.
Whitten will host the keynote address before a series of breakout sessions aimed to provide knowledge and training in the areas of stress management, financial security and healthy living.
A buffet-style lunch with plenty of options will be served inside the Young-Mauldin Cafeteria before an afternoon of fun-filled games on the DSU Intramural Field.
Participants are asked to register for this year’s event by clicking on the link below. After clicking on the link, the event may be found under Workshops then Special Events.

When Oscar Diggs, a small-time circus magician with dubious ethics, is hurled away from dusty Kansas to the vibrant Land of Oz, he thinks he’s hit the jackpot-fame and fortune are his for the taking-that is until he meets three witches, Theodora, Evanora and Glinda, who are not convinced he is the great wizard everyone’s been expecting. Reluctantly drawn into the epic problems facing the Land of Oz and its inhabitants, Oscar must find out who is good and who is evil before it is too late. Putting his magical arts to use through illusion, ingenuity-and even a bit of wizardry-Oscar transforms himself not only into the great and powerful Wizard of OzT but into a better man as well.

BluesLand
2013-08-13 - 2013-11-09 | Capps Archives and Museum
The first exhibition of the fall semester for the University Archives & Museum will open Tuesday evening, 13 August at 6pm with a reception and lecture.
Delta State Alumnus, Easton Selby returns to the Delta with a portion of a collaborative documentary exhibition entitled “BluesLand”. The combined talents of Selby and fellow photographers Armon Means and John Vincent created the original body of work entitled “Photographic Interpretations: The Culture & Geography of the Blues,” with inspiration from Dr. John Strait’s research which emphasized on examining the space in which we live. Selby states, “As photographers, we are trained from our first day to understand the meaning and intent of the final photograph. We are taught that just because we can look doesn’t necessarily mean that we can see. Through my work, I am trying to connect my disconnect with something I don’t fully understand.”
Selby’s work of 20 images will be on display in the Capps Archives & Museum’s main gallery through 31 October.
This event is free and open to the public. For more information, contact University Archivist, Emily Jones at ejones@deltastate.edu or by calling 662.846.4781

The Madison Center at Delta State to host political leader and author
2013-10-03 12:00 - 13:00 | Jobe Hall, Auditorium
Rebecca Sive, author of Every Day Is Election Day: A Woman’s Guide to Winning Any Office: From the PTA to the White House, will be speaking in Jobe Auditorium on Oct. 3 at 12:00 p.m. The event will be hosted by The Madison Center at Delta State and will be co-sponsored by the American Association of University Women and the Gender Studies Group.
Sive is a public affairs strategist with experience as a public official, organizational leader, business executive, and philanthropist. She speaks and writes about women’s public leadership, political power and influence. She specifically speaks to women on building and maintaining an influential public presence, making a positive difference in life, and advancing personal and professional opportunities by becoming a public leader.
The author provided a preview of her speech on campus.
“At Delta State, I will discuss the fact that this new era in American history presents a unique opportunity for women who seek public leadership roles to successfully achieve them. In the speech, I will discuss the personal traits needed for such success, highlighting the advice and inspirational stories of women “from Mississippi to Manhattan,” featured in my book,” said Sive.
As a founding member of the Illinois Human Rights Commission, Sive began her professional career at the American Jewish Committee and then founded one of the nation’s first women’s centers. Later, she launched The Sive Group, Inc., a public affairs consulting practice that develops and leads programs to increase women’s visibility and influence. She currently teaches a course on women and public leadership at the University of Chicago Harris School of Public Policy Studies.
Director of The Madison Center Dr. Garry Jennings said, “Rebecca Sive’s advocacy is not merely informational. Her advocacy for women in politics is necessary for those who want to engage the public forum but do not have the necessary practical wisdom to get out and win. Her book is both a guide to involvement and a testament to the fact that women’s issues touch every issue in our society.”
Sive has received many awards including distinguished achievement awards from her undergraduate alma mater, Carleton College, and the University of Illinois, the United Negro College Fund and the YWCA. She is also listed in Feminists Who Changed America, University of Illinois Press.
The Madison Center, under the direction of Dr. Garry Jennings, is Delta State’s center for the study of democracy, human rights and the Constitution. This event is open to the public.
