Interview with Jessica Chambers, Class of 1993
Oral history interview with Illinois State University alum Jessica Chambers, class of 1993. Chambers has been the director of ISU’s Horticulture Center since it’s establishment in 2005. The interview was conducted by Milner Library intern Paige Malloy on June 1, 2023.
In the interview, Chambers reflects on her personal and professional journey. She begins by sharing some childhood memories and highlighting her connection to the university, as her mother pursued a PhD there.
Chambers recalls attending Thomas Metcalf School and University High School (U High). She emphasizing the stability U High provided during a turbulent time in her life. After initially enrolling in the University of Maryland, Chambers finished out her bachelor’s degree at ISU, partly in order to be closer to her future husband, Jason.
Chambers describes her discovery of horticulture during her sophomore year at ISU, crediting Dr. Margaret Balbach’s passion for the subject as a key factor in her choice of major. Though she juggled multiple jobs during her undergraduate years, she expresses regret for not participating more in extracurricular activities like the Horticulture Club.
After graduation, Chambers pursued a master\u27s degree at Southern Illinois University before eventually becoming the director of ISU\u27s Horticulture Center in 2005. She discusses the evolution of the Center, which initially lacked a budget and required extensive fundraising for its development. Despite challenges such as limited university support and staffing constraints, Chambers takes pride in the Center’s growth, including its educational mission, community engagement, and the increasing number of visitors. She also emphasizes the importance of connecting people to nature and the interdisciplinary potential of the Center across various academic fields at ISU.https://ir.library.illinoisstate.edu/aoh/1073/thumbnail.jp

Chambers Shift Focus To Stay Relevant
An in-depth look at how regional chambers of commerce have navigated the challenges of the pandemic. Historically reliant on in-person networking events, chambers around the state have found new ways to connect with members, from speaker series held via Zoom, as in the successful initiative launched by the Kennebec Valley Chamber called Chamber Connect, to offering new membership pricing models and virtual board meetings, strategies adopted by the LA Metro Chamber. Several chambers closed or scaled back. The cancellation of the Yarmouth Clam Festival for two years hit the Yarmouth Chamber of Commerce hard, as it provided a large potion of their budget
Holding chambers (spacers) versus nebulisers for beta-agonist treatment of acute asthma
Background
In acute asthma inhaled beta₂-agonists are often administered by nebuliser to relieve bronchospasm, but some have argued that metered-dose inhalers with a holding chamber (spacer) can be equally effective. Nebulisers require a power source and need regular maintenance, and are more expensive in the community setting.
Objectives
To assess the effects of holding chambers (spacers) compared to nebulisers for the delivery of beta₂-agonists for acute asthma.
Search methods
We searched the Cochrane Airways Group Trial Register and reference lists of articles. We contacted the authors of studies to identify additional trials. Date of last search: February 2013.
Selection criteria
Randomised trials in adults and children (from two years of age) with asthma, where spacer beta₂-agonist delivery was compared with wet nebulisation.
Data collection and analysis
Two review authors independently applied study inclusion criteria (one review author for the first version of the review), extracted the data and assessed risks of bias. Missing data were obtained from the authors or estimated. Results are reported with 95% confidence intervals (CIs).
Main results
This review includes a total of 1897 children and 729 adults in 39 trials. Thirty-three trials were conducted in the emergency room and equivalent community settings, and six trials were on inpatients with acute asthma (207 children and 28 adults). The method of delivery of beta₂-agonist did not show a significant difference in hospital admission rates. In adults, the risk ratio (RR) of admission for spacer versus nebuliser was 0.94 (95% CI 0.61 to 1.43). The risk ratio for children was 0.71 (95% CI 0.47 to 1.08, moderate quality evidence). In children, length of stay in the emergency department was significantly shorter when the spacer was used. The mean duration in the emergency department for children given nebulised treatment was 103 minutes, and for children given treatment via spacers 33 minutes less (95% CI -43 to -24 minutes, moderate quality evidence). Length of stay in the emergency department for adults was similar for the two delivery methods. Peak flow and forced expiratory volume were also similar for the two delivery methods. Pulse rate was lower for spacer in children, mean difference -5% baseline (95% CI -8% to -2%, moderate quality evidence), as was the risk of developing tremor (RR 0.64; 95% CI 0.44 to 0.95, moderate quality evidence).
Authors' conclusions
Nebuliser delivery produced outcomes that were not significantly better than metered-dose inhalers delivered by spacer in adults or children, in trials where treatments were repeated and titrated to the response of the participant. Spacers may have some advantages compared to nebulisers for children with acute asthma

Another Map, another History, another Modernity
In this article, the author criticizes the consensual cultural configuration of present-day Italy by displacing concerns of historical and intellectual identity onto a wider Mediterranean map. Elaborating an interdisciplinary and intercultural position that looks to languages and histories that Italian academic life and institutional culture tends to ignore, or repress, the disparaged sides of modernity – the South, the Mediterranean, the Muslim world – become the sites of a diverse critical understanding. Drawing upon the metaphorical powers of the sea itself, this “Mediterranean” view of modern Italy, of the formation of its cultural and critical languages, proposes a more unsettled and fluid cartography that renders inherited questions and “solutions” vulnerable to an inquiry that a national culture is unable to authorize. In particular, the desire for cultural and critical continuity, sustained in a diffuse historicist syntax and policed by moribund disciplinary protocols, is challenged via a “postcolonial” elaboration of Italy as both a Mediterranean and modern formation. This leads to a proposed rupture with the mold of a fundamentally patrician and provincial understanding of native culture. In particular, the contemporary figure of the so-called illegal migrant announces the hidden colonial histories that planetary process return to disturb the surfaces of everyday life. It is the unwelcome turbulence of migration, as one of the central chapters of modernity itself, which now cuts into the historical, political, and cultural body of Italy, exposing it in a global frame that can only be registered in “worldly thinking” (Antonio Gramsci). Precisely at this point, it becomes imperative to draw up another map, narrate another history, and seek another modernity
