Presentations from the 2004 PETE Conference, Oklahoma
City: Pamela Boatright with Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education presented Safety Compliance Approach for Oklahoma’s Institutions of Higher Learning. The Semantic Web was presented by Doug Feil, Kirkwood Community College. Lisa LaDue, National Mass Fatalities Institute, gave a presentation on Acute Traumatic Stress, and Deb Rowe, Oakland Community College, challenged the group with Teaching Energy Literacy and Sustainability. Other sessions during the three-day conference included fall protection, electrical safety, measuring safety performance, partnership programs, teaching without lecturing, students designing HAZWOPER scenarios, sampling and monitoring, poultry wastewater processing, and lessons learned. In talking to the attendees, the impression was that this was the best conference Central PETE has had and everyone went home with new ideas, new resources, and renewed energy.
