제 4 호 The Grand Prize of 39th English Essay Contest, "The Future of Humanity"

Kicker: The Grand Prize of 39th English Essay Contest The Future of Humanity by Jin-woo Chung, Biotechnology student The human race has walked the world for millions of years. We have survived, congoured, fought, and have finally become the dominant species on the Earth. We have weapons powerful enough to destroy the Earth and can travel to outer space. We can communicate with each other in an instant from thousands of kilometers away and have machines fast enough to travel around the world in a short amount of time. But what lies after this? Will humanity thrive on like it has for millions of years or will it perish after using up all the resources on the Earth and fall to war, famine, and natural disasters? In this essay, I plant to write about both opinions and come to a conclusion. First, I will address the opinion that humanity will prosper as it always has. After all, this is humanity we are talking about. Every time we have faced a problem, we had a break through and have overcome that problem and moved forward. In primary times, wild animals were a threat so we created weapons and built houses to keep them away. Because overpopulation became a problem, we invented better farming methods and cognized more lands. When diseases threatened lives, we created medicine and vaccines to cure them. Currently, humanity is being threatened by environmental harm, weapons of mass destruction, and overpopulation. However, many believe that nature will be possible to control with human technology and the weapons of mass destruction will not be used and will only act as a stopper to war. Overpopulation can be solved by inventing better ways of growing foods. On the other hand, others are not so optimistic about humanity’s future. The amount of harm humanity is causing to the environment is not something science can control and is already affecting many countries. The ice on the Arctic and Atlantic is melting and raising sea levels, resulting in some islands sinking and becoming in hospitable. Many animals and plants are becoming extinct due to environmental destruction and too much hunting. We are slowly running out of natural resources and will eventually not be able to develop anymore. The threat of weapons, such as nuclear weapons, is very close and could end the world as we know it. In the end, I believe that while there is no reason to despair and think that there is no hope for humanity, it is important to deal with these problems before it becomes too late.

제 3 호 Sangmyung University Obtained Revised ISMS from KISA

Kicker: SM NEWS Sangmyung University Obtained Revised ISMS from KISA About ISMS and the Importance of Information Security by Hye-im Li, Reporter kateli1004@naver.com ▲The Sangmyung University Sangmyung University has obtained a certification screening by the Korea Internet & Security Agency (KISA) for the operation of the academic administration system and the main homepage. As a result, Sangmyung University got the newly revised Information Security Management System (ISMS*) by meeting all areas of the certification standard. The certification standard includes the scholastic record, the grade administration, the Education Management system, issue of the certificate, and operation of the main homepage. Sangmyung University said that, “We have been working hard to establish a safe security system and the effort was confinned by obtaining revised ISMS.” ▲The Certification ISMS/ISMS-P The Korea Internet & Security Agency is a government department which manages internetㆍinformation protection. One of the main businesses is the development of the information protection industry. To promote the information protection industry, the Korea Internet & Security Agency operates a certificate system. ISMS is one of the certificates which Sangmyung University obtained. The mandatory target of certification includes colleges with more than 10,000 students. There are 42 universities that correspond to the mandatory target. However, only 14 colleges obtained the certificate including Sangmyung University. The Korea Internet & Security Agency has planned to make ISMS mandatory since September. Unacquired universities will be imposed a fine of 30 million won. The recent implementation of the certificate for mandatory colleges means the importance of information protection in universities. Universities handle private information like the scholastic record, the grade of students and personal information. Therefore, we have to think about the possibility of personal information leakage. To avoid the personal information leakage, it is important to establish a thorough Information Security Management System. Not only the effort of our university but also the effort of students is important. Since this personal information belongs to students. Thus, SMU students have to pay attention to personal information protection, too, when using a public computer. It would be a good method of prevention to log out after using a public computer. *ISMS: ISMS and PIMS have been integrated and implemented since November 7th, 2018. ISMS and ISMS-P are the newly revised certifications.

제 2 호 Sangmyung’s Collaborative Learning Park for Team Project Learning

Sangmyung’s Collaborative Learning Park for Team Project Learning By Yu-jung Kim, Cub-Reporter kyjmimi121@naver.com These days, Korean universities prefer team projects that communicate and cooperate with others. Therefore, you can see many students who conduct team project at Sangmyung University. However, there are students who wait for a place or go to a café. Anyone who has ever done a team project in our university will sympathize. I want to cheerfully tell the students at my school not to worry anymore. Because now our school has a special space for team projects called the CLP(Collaborative Learning Park). CLP is a space designed for collaborative learning. It has various kinds of spaces with seminar- rooms, separated spaces and open spaces. In particular, each space has a TV for a display and a wireless cooperation solution (Bring Your Own Device) system. CLP is so popular among students to the extent that the rooms are fully booked during the usual study period. ▲The Photo of CLP So, who designed the CLP for students? CLP designers are school officials and Lee Hyun-woo, a professor of education. Professor Lee Hyun-woo actually said, “I thought it was a problem not to provide space for the team project, although we give a lot of tasks for the team project assignments.” It is of great significance that they have tried to think about and solve the lack of learning space. This may prove that the school and professors are interested in Sangmyung University students. CLP is a space for students only, so I hope all the students in our school will study and grow together. If there are any students who have not used it, go and study with friends right away. Source :https://www.smu.ac.kr/webzine/today.do?mode=view&articleNo=698259&article.offset=30&articleLimit=10

제 2 호 Sangmyung University Develops Technology for Low Cost Commodity Plastics

Kicker: SM News Sangmyung University Develops Technology for Low Cost Commodity Plastics by Chae eun Song, Cub Reporter thdcogml@naver.com Have you ever heard of commodity plastic? Commodity plastics are plastics that are used in high volume and a wide range of applications, such as film for packaging, photographic and magnetic tape, clothing, beverage and trash containers and a variety of household products where mechanical properties and service environments are not critical. Examples of commodity plastics are polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, polyvinyl chloride, poly(methyl methacrylate) and more. Kang Sang-wook, professor of Sangmyung University Recently, a research team led by Kang Sang-wook, professor of Sangmyung University, and a graduate student, Kim Min-soo, announced that they had secured technology to obtain ethylene and propylene at low cost, which are materials for commodity plastic. Olefin materials, such as ethylene and propylene in crude oil, are separated and produced through processes of a distillation column in petrochemical complexes. Generally, they are separated using different boiling points. The process of boiling and cooling at temperatures below minus 30 degrees must be repeated more than 100 times to obtain ethylene and propylene of a high degree of purity. Efforts have been made all over the world to replace the previous separation technique because its cost amounts to about 200 billion won a year in Korea.The membrane, which utilizes silver (Ag) ions, can get high purity olefin material with just one pass, but problems have been found in terms of durability.As a way to replace this, a membrane using silver (Ag) nanoparticles has been developed and this has received much attention due to its excellent durability.However, there were many difficulties in commercialization due to low transmission performance.To improve this, Professor Kang Sang-wook and his team recently succeeded in developing an olefin membrane that shows high permeability and mechanical properties at the same time utilizing durable silver (Ag) nanoparticles. The newly developed partitioning membrane is expected to replace the existing high-cost distillation column separation process if further cost-cutting studies are carried out.
