Some COD part-time faculty will get health care
Updated May 9, 2013 6:02 PMThough the impact of new federal health care guidelines remains unclear, College of DuPage officials say they're planning to provide benefits to some part-time professors. The college will create the new position of "lecturer" — a nontenured adjunct faculty member who will teach more classes than the average adjunct professor, but still fewer classes than a full-time professor. The new designation would allow lecturers to be eligible for health care insurance, officials said.

- The Choral-aires Chorus placed second in the Community Teams category raising funds for breast cancer research last month, missing first place by only $25. The chorus raised $3,985 by the time the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure rolled around, with more donations still coming, surpassing their original goal of $3,000. The Choral-Aires has five current chorus members that either have, or have had, breast cancer. And this year, 2 of the team members discovered that their mothers have breast cancer, so they were walking on race day for their moms. One member of our team, Kara Gray, celebrated her 10 years without breast cancer this year. While not a Chorus member, she is the daughter of long-time member Martha Anderson, who also walked with the team on race day. Lindsey Herza

- Children at Hawk Hollow Elementary, along with the Bartlett Fire Department, listen to Jeff Simon talk about his late wife Trisha L. Simon. Trisha was a member of the Bartlett Fire Protection District from December 2003-June 2008. Not long after she was hired, she was diagnosed with stage 4-colon cancer. She started the "Department of Community Health Care" to help those in need. She lost her battle in August 2012, leaving behind her loving husband and two young children. The children decorated flames with messages of hope to those battling cancer. These messages were then taken to Central DuPage Hospital's Oncology Dept. to distribute to their cancer patients. The Bartlett Fire Department and Marianne Huml from the Oncology Department were on hand to receive the messages from the children. Bartlett Fire Department
