If you were unable to attend either of the Open Enrollment Zoom meetings, you can view the entire benefit presentation in the Open Enrollment section of the MyUE portal at: https://bit.ly/2GcdKph. You can also view all of the relevant documents beginning with the open enrollment memo for important announcements, reminders, and changes which will occur June 1 to the University’s benefits.

During the period of April 5 through April 16, benefit-eligible employees may enroll or make changes in the University’s health, life, long term disability, and dental insurance, and ACES flexible spending account benefit plans. It is the only chance for benefit-eligible employees to enroll or make changes until the next open enrollment period unless you have a qualifying change in status.

We will once again utilize an on-line enrollment process, eliminating all paper enrollment forms for health, life, dental, and long term disability insurance, as well as the ACES flexible spending account. This will ensure the accuracy of your enrollment elections and maintain records electronically regarding your current and future participation. Enrollment/changes to your TIAA and Emeriti VEBA Trust retirement plan salary deferrals will continue to be processed on paper forms available in the Office of Human Resources. Therefore, you do not need to re-enroll in the TIAA or Emeriti retirement plans. ALL benefit eligible employees (including those who do not want to make any changes to their current coverage) must enter their elections by April 16. Please review the open enrollment memo and On-Line Benefit Enrollment Documents on the HR Area of the MyUE portal, which should answer many of the questions you might have about this system.

Please contact the Office of Human Resources at ext. 2943 with any questions.

MYTH: The second dose of the Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna vaccines is not needed

FACT: You need two doses of the Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna vaccines for it to develop immunity. It is not clear how effective or durable protection from a single dose would be. When you first get exposed to a vaccine or a foreign substance, your body generates cells that can recognize that foreign substance. The second time you get exposed, you body develops a stronger understanding of the virus and builds long-term immunity.

Currently, the Indiana State Department of Health (ISDH) has identified the following Indiana residents as eligible to receive the COVID vaccine:

• Healthcare Workers
• First Responders
• Teachers and school staff in pre-K through high school, child care centers, Head Start and Early Start programs
• Licensed childcare providers, including center-based and family care providers
• Age 16 and above
• Specific groups of patients at highest risk of severe illness from COVID-19 who are identified by their healthcare provider are also eligible. These individuals will receive a unique registration link by text or email.

We will keep our patients updated as eligibility and administration sites broaden. Although currently there is no cost to patients for the vaccine, insurance information will be collected.

The University of Evansville Theatre presents HENRY IV, PART I, by William Shakespeare at 7:30 p.m., Friday, Apr. 16, and Saturday, Apr. 17, as part of ZOOMBOX, a student-directed play series on the online platform Zoom.

This epic tale of power, intrigue, and war is part of Shakespeare’s greatest historical saga and deftly explores the complexity of father-son relationships. The political savvy King Henry knows a rebellion is coming and despairs over young Prince Hal’s proclivity to engage in drunken revels with Sir John Falstaff, a gloriously funny, but shameless rogue. Fast-paced action ensues on the bloody battlefield, as the brash and hot-headed Hotspur leads the quest to remove Henry from the throne. Will this fierce rival force the carefree prince to rise to the occasion and claim his own royal destiny?

Theodore J. Esten, a senior performance major, from Cedarburg, Wis., directs HENRY V, PART I; Rory Manley, a first-year design and technology major, from Carrollton, Texas, is the zoom environmental designer; Chloe Brzozowski, a sophomore and technology major, from Dayton, Ohio, is the costume designer/stylist; Sara Mathew, a sophomore design and technology major, from Union, Ky., is the costume designer/stylist; Olivia Darshani Pedersen a junior stage management major, from Chaska, Minn., is the dramaturg; and Zoe Paraskevopoulos, a sophomore stage management major, from Flower Mound, Texas, is the stage manager.

The cast features Yusef Louis Dixon, a first-year performance major, from Houston, Texas, as King Henry IV and Sheriff; UE Theatre alumnus Ben Khare ’09, as Prince Hal; Caden Sevier, a first-year performance major, from Humble, Texas, as Hotspur; Spencer Marfy, a first-year performance major, from Tallmadge, Ohio, as Sir John Falstaff; Elizabeth Dye, a sophomore performance major, from Frisco, Texas, as Lady Percy and Bardolph; Rebecca Conaway, a sophomore theatre studies major, from Wellsburg, W.Va., as Lady Mortimer, Mistress Quickly, and Lord Vernon; Benjamin Bravard, a sophomore performance major, from Batavia, Ohio, as Northumberland, Owen Glendower, and Douglas; Jack Cory, a sophomore performance major, from Southlake, Texas, as Poins and Earl of Worcester; and Drake J. Susuras, a first-year performance major, from Broomfield, Colo., as Lord John of Lancaster, Sir Walter Blunt, and Edmund Mortimer.

Local Artist Paints to Heal

Lori Rivera finds that the world nearly disappears when she paints, and she is deeply drawn into the meditative aspects of painting. She loves the healing benefits that painting provides, as she struggles with depression.

At any given time, Lori has a painting in progress on her painting wall in her home studio. Although her roots are in representational painting, she has recently decided to devote the majority of her time to growing as an abstract artist. She sees abstract art as the most fitting genre that allows her to communicate her emotions.

She usually starts with dark colors and then works up to lighter colors in the final layers. She feels this process is symbolic of rising from the darkness of depression and signifies her triumph over it. “As I go through this process with each painting, I am reminded of where I’ve been and how far I’ve come,” says Lori.

She started painting over ten years ago, but her interest in pursuing art as a career was reawakened when she was inspired by artists at Peace Zone, where she served as Executive Director. While working, she painted in her spare time and decided to pursue art full time several years ago.

Lori’s most recent project is creating paintings inspired by music, and she often listens to the music on repeat as she paints. She focuses on how the music makes her feel and communicates that feeling onto the canvas. Sometimes the music matches her mood, while other times the music she chooses is totally opposite of what she is feeling. Ultimately though, she relies on spontaneity and allows each painting to develop organically as each brushstroke guides the next.

Her work has been shown in Virginia, Pennsylvania, Ohio, New Harmony, and Evansville. You can see her work in person at the University of Evansville’s Krannert Gallery April 11th through May 9th. The exhibit, Becoming Centered, overlaps with Mental Health Month, which is during the month of May. The opening reception is April 22nd at 6:30 pm.

The Department of Art at UE offers a wide range of degree programs and areas of specialization in the visual arts. It houses a number of specialized studios for ceramics, drawing, metalwork and jewelry, painting, printmaking, photography, sculpture, visual communication design, and watercolor. The Krannert and Peterson Galleries are also a vital resource for the students, as well as the Evansville area.

Students can receive BFA, BA & BS degrees in a variety of Art Studies: Studio Art, Art and

Associate Studies, Art Education, Visual Communication Design and Pre-Art Therapy. This exhibition is sponsored by the Department of Art with the generous support of the Efroymson Family Fund. The Krannert Gallery is located on the first floor of Krannert Hall of Art & Music.

Please visit the UE website www.evansville.edu/majors/art/majors.cfm

Or FaceBook Page: University of Evansville Department of Art & Melvin Peterson Gallery

For more information about Lori and her art, visit www.loririverafineart.com.

These stunning, abstract paintings can be seen in the Krannert Gallery April 11 – May 9

A public Reception for the Artist is April 22, 6:30pm. Masks & Social Distancing will be observed.

The front circle drive (Lot B/visitor parking) will be blocked off this Sunday, April 18, for photos. This lot will need to be free of all vehicles during the morning hours (approx. 8AM-12PM). Please do not park your vehicle on the drive until after 12PM on Sunday.

Dr. Mark Cirino interviewed Pulitzer Prize-winning author Elizabeth Strout for his Hemingway Society-sponsored podcast, One True Podcast. During the interview, Strout discusses her writing process, the theme of loneliness, and analyzes Hemingway's short story, "A Clean, Well-Lighted Place." Strout is the author of -- among other works -- Olive Kitteridge and My Name Is Lucy Barton.

Having won eight of its last nine games, the University of Evansville baseball team brings momentum to a weekend series against Missouri State on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday at German American Bank Field at Charles H. Braun Stadium in Evansville.
 

Last Time Out: Evansville 4, Bradley 2
• After weather wreaked havoc on the weekend schedule, the University of Evansville baseball team split its Sunday doubleheader with Bradley, falling 5-4 in game one and winning game two, 4-2, at Dozer Park in Peoria, Ill.
• The series win marked the Aces fourth-straight series win, its longest such streak since winning six consecutive series during the 2016 campaign.
• "We showed a lot of fight all weekend. Longest day I've experienced at a baseball field and just an overall long trip to Peoria for us," said Aces head baseball coach Wes Carroll on the team's effort. "This team showed a lot of character as they picked each other up throughout."
• Evansville got off to a quick start in game two of the doubleheader, scoring a run in the top of the first as freshman Simon Scherry recorded a sacrifice fly that scored Crews, giving starting pitcher Jake McMahill an early lead to work with.
• Bradley was held at bay for much of the contest before equalizing in the fifth on a solo home run by Manteufel. McMahill's excellent effort ended after the fifth as the redshirt junior concluded his day allowing just one run on two hits, striking-out a pair.
• The Braves took the lead in the sixth, but the Aces were able to limit the damage. Bradley loaded the bases with no outs, but junior Drew Dominik and Evansville's defense saved a run, throwing-out a runner at home.
• The Braves scored on a passed ball with two outs, but Dominik stepped-up and fired a strikeout looking to end the inning. Following the strikeout, Bradley's Dan Bolt was ejected from the game, removing a critical threat from the Braves offense.
• In the top of the seventh, Evansville looked to return the favor offensively, loading the bases with no outs. After Crews fouled out, the Braves got a crucial defensive play as Beilsmith flied-out to left and Shepherd was thrown-out at home to end the inning.
• Making up for the seventh, the Aces offense continued to be relentless in the eighth. Scherry walked to lead-off the inning, followed by a double by junior Tanner Craig. Freshman Mark Shallenberger preceded to tie the game at two with a sac fly that scored Scherry. Borgstrom then earned a walk to put runners on the corners for Evansville, which proved to be key for the Aces. With junior Mason Brinkley at the plate, Bradley threw a wild pitch, giving Evansville the 3-2 lead as Craig scored. Borgstrom would due the same, this time on a passed ball, as the Aces took a 4-2 lead.
• The Braves again loaded the bases in the bottom of the eighth with freshman Jakob Meyer on the mound. With two outs, Meyer walked Dougherty to load the bases, but the Columbus, Ind. native shut down Bradley. Meyer induced a groundout to end the inning and send the game to the ninth.
• In the bottom of the ninth, Meyer continued to look in form, allowing a base-hit, but striking-out a pair as the Aces captured the 4-2 win and earned the series victory.

Previewing the Matchup: Missouri State
• The Aces and Bears are set to meet for the 101st time on Friday night with the renewal of the conference series after a season away due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
• Missouri State owns a 58-42 advantage in the series, but Evansville won the last series in 2019.
• The Bears enter the weekend with an 12-10 overall record and a 2-2 mark in The Valley, coming-off a 7-5 win at Missouri on Tuesday night.
• Evansville has won eight of its last nine games, suffering its first lost in more than two weeks on Sunday at Bradley, 5-4.
• Despite seeing its win-streak end, the Aces still earned the series win over the Braves and enter the weekend having won four-straight series, the first time Evansville has accomplished the feat since the 2016 season when the Aces won six-straight series.

Best Batters Hit vs. Best Hitting Batters
• This weekend's series pits teams that are diametrically opposed to one another in one statistical category.
• The Aces are 19th-best in the nation and tops in The Valley in batters hit-by-pitch, with Evansville batsmen drawing 48 HBPs this season.
• Missouri State enters the River City as the MVC team with the most HBPs thrown by its pitchers, recording 33 on the season, 93rd in the nation in the category.

Crews Goes for Three
• Redshirt junior Kenton Crews continued to generate extra base hits over the weekend.
• Crews recorded his fourth triple of the season on Friday night, moving the Lincoln City, Ind. native into second in the nation in the category.
