Inspirational Educator Surprised With Full Master's Degree Scholarship From American College of Education
Rosana Martinez was honored as the 2025 Resilient Leadership Scholarship recipient INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA / ACCESS Newswire / June 5, 2025 / In partnership with the Education Research and Development Institute (ERDI), American College of Education® (ACE) proudly presented the 2025 Resilient Leadership Scholarship to Rosana Martinez, lead community school coordinator for the Oceanside Unified School District (OUSD) in San Diego County, California. The full master's degree scholarship is granted by Dr. Julie A. Vitale, superintendent of OUSD. Vitale was named the 2025 ERDI Resilient Leader Award recipient for her dedication to education and leadership, which includes awarding the scholarship through an application process. ACE Chief Growth Officer Monica Carson and Vitale surprised Martinez with the award at her office, among her family and colleagues. Carson also formally honored Martinez in the presence of the OUSD Board of Trustees, district leadership and community. "On behalf of ACE, we are delighted to celebrate Rosana and her influence, leadership and dedication," Carson said. "She is recognized by OUSD leadership as a courageous advocate for students and staff who uplifts her peers and contributes to creating a sense of belonging and wellness in supportive learning environments." Martinez's pursuit of a master's degree is more than a personal achievement, but a generational milestone. Her journey honors a dream that started with her parents, who immigrated to Oceanside, and cascades to her experience as a non-English speaking kindergartener to her own family. "I am very surprised and truly honored to accept this scholarship from ACE," Martinez shared. "Earning a master's degree is a way of breaking cycles and creating new legacies for immigrants who have sacrificed everything to make their dreams come true in the United States. I want to see my daughter and every other student grow up knowing that ambition, family, leadership and love can coexist in a powerful way." "We are grateful to ACE and ERDI for giving the gift of education," said Donald Bendz, OUSD director of communications. "Rosana is a product of OUSD schools and now works tirelessly to serve OUSD students. Her story is their story. We know Rosana will continue to lead and inspire the students, families and community she so passionately supports." This scholarship aims to support educators in continuing their education and making a significant impact in the field. "Rosana is an inspiration to us all," ACE President and CEO Geordie Hyland added. "One of the most remarkable components of higher education is seeing thousands of unique and resilient students overcome obstacles and reach their dreams. We are honored to recognize Rosana's contributions to unity within school communities, and we look forward to cheering her on as she pursues her master's degree."

Delivery of dead rats to Indonesian reporters sparks fears over freedom curbs
A series of 'terrorist' threats involving animal remains targeting several staff working for Indonesia's Tempo magazine has sparked concerns over backsliding press freedoms and that such intimidation tactics could push journalists toward self-censorship. Advertisement Tempo, one of the country's most respected investigative news outlets, on Saturday received a box of six rats with their heads decapitated, which was thrown into the front gate of its headquarters in Jakarta. The incident happened just three days after a severed pig's head was sent to Francisca Christy Rosana, a political journalist with the magazine and co-host of its 'Bocor Alus' political podcast. In a virtual news briefing on Sunday, Tempo's editor-in-chief Setri Yasra said the personal data of Rosana and her family had also been published online, with the doxxing act carried out by an 'anonymous' actor. 'So it's not just [Rosana], her family too. Her social media account was [inaccessible], although we can restore it. There was an anonymous account on Instagram that made threats openly [against Rosana], with harsh language. We don't know the person because the account is anonymous,' he said. While it was unclear why animal carcasses were sent to Tempo, the weekly magazine described the incidents as acts of 'terror'.
