• Jill Harman, MA, BA (creighton.edu) — A Nebraska-born educator and faith leader who once served as associate pastor at Fremont First United Methodist Church is now helping shape Catholic teachers through Creighton University’s Magis program. Her work blends restorative justice, clergy mentorship, and community-building, connecting Fremont church experience with broader regional education and ministry leadership. 
• Costco Chicken Processing Plant Keeps Failing Tests for Salmonella (sentientmedia.org) — Costco’s vertically integrated chicken plant in Fremont has repeatedly received the USDA’s worst salmonella rating, raising concerns about contamination in products sold nationwide. An advocacy group’s analysis says the facility has been in the riskiest category for years, and plans to press federal regulators in January for stronger food safety rules affecting operations like Fremont’s.
