The case of the missing trailer
By Julie Carter
Opinion Editor
On March 12, the Brevard College community
was alerted via an email from Safety, Security
and Risk Management Director Stan Jacobsen
that Kyle Lusk’s, Professor of 3-D Art and
Sculpture, trailer was missing from in front of
Sims Art Center.
As noted within the email, the trailer
was frequently used by various members
of campus, including maintenance staff.
The email also presented Lusk’s belief that
someone within the campus commimity simply
borrowed the trailer without his knowledge
and would return it soon. However, since the
trailer’s whereabouts are still unknown, hope
is dwindling on this belief.
It is believed that the trailer went missing
sometime over Spring Break during a time
period in which Lusk believed another party
was using it. However, the party never collected
the trailer as they could not find it.
Lusk, however, does not blame anyone in
particular for the disappearance of the trailer.
“I’m sure someone probably saw them hooking
up the trailer, but it isn’t an activity that is out
of the ordinary. Most people would see that and
not even give it a second thought,” Lusk said.
In regards to locating the trailer, Lusk is less
than hopeful. “I’ll never see that trailer again,”
Lusk said.
With this belief, Lusk plans on having to
purchase another trailer within the next few
months should the trailer not be found from the
party who took it.
Any information regarding the trailer can be
referred to Kyle Lusk, Campus Security or the
Brevard Police Department who have also been
notified of the issue.
BC to offer summer courses online
ByAia Andonovska
staff Writer
Brevard College is excited to offer online
courses for Summer 2019. With a focus
on experiential education, Brevard’s online
education sessions go above and beyond typical
online learning expectations.
Traditional online courses rely heavily on
text and students demonstrate learning through
writing essays. Our courses are intentional
about breaking this mold. Our online summer
courses let you analyze film soundtracks for
credit or attend a virtual biology class complete
with at-home test kit. You can develop skills to
advocate for environmental issues, and even
get introduced to the field of criminal justice by
meeting your local sheriff.
Faculty will go the extra mile to be available
and interact personally with students throughout
the course. Read the descriptions below to see
that these aren’t just “read and write” classes.
MUSlOl: Music Appreciation: With an
emphasis on music in film, this is sure to be an
interesting course that helps students develop
a better understanding of film as an art form.
The course requires students to watch three,
full-length films and visit a film in the theater.
(3 credit hours)
BIO 120; General Biology H: The course
emphasizes cellular and molecular concepts,
including biochemistry, cell structure and
function, respiration, photosynthesis, genetics,
and molecular biology. Labs are done virtually,
and through kits that are sent to students. (4
credit hours)
ENVIOI: Environmental Issues; Delve into
the dynamic relationship between humans and
the natural world. This course doesn’t just teach
about environmental issues, it helps students
develop skills to better communicate about these
important issues. (3 credit hours)
CRJIOI; Introduction to Criminal Justice: By
visiting a sheriff’s office, police station, and
a courthouse, students will develop a deeper
understanding of the role of law in society. (3
credit hours)
