The natural sciences at UE is organizing a research symposium to recognize some of the research accomplishments of its students. The symposium is scheduled for the afternoon of Friday, February 3, 2023. It will begin with a student poster session from 1-2:00 PM in the Koch Atrium. Following the poster session, there will be presentations in KC 100 (beginning around 2:00 PM) by two UE alumni: Bradley Richmond (Class of 2003) and Elizabeth Mendes (Class of 2017). Bradley Richmond (MD, PhD) is an Assistant Professor of Medicine, Division of Allergy, Pulmonary, and Critical Care Medicine at Vanderbilt University. Elizabeth Mendes is currently pursuing her PhD in Pharmacology and Cancer Biology at Duke University School of Medicine. In addition to talking about their respective careers, each speaker will discuss how a UE education and other experiences helped shape their career paths. The symposium will end with a panel discussion. Andrew Nunn (Class of 2017), a lab manager at AstraZeneca, will join the panel discussion. Everyone is cordially invited to attend this event.

This year, nine ChangeLabs and UE Changemakers have been nominated for Leadership Everyone awards! We will be sharing those nominees and details about their projects over the next few weeks, beginning with Joshua Academy Music Instruction ChangeLab.

The Joshua Academy Music Instruction ChangeLab has been nominated for the Leadership Everyone’s 28th Annual Celebration of Leadership, the annual event where servant leadership in our community is recognized and celebrated!

Instrumental Music Education students began the Joshua Academy band program in the fall of 2019. After a successful start, the program was forced to take a short hiatus during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Instrumental music education majors successfully restarted the Joshua Band Program in the fall of 2021. Since then, two students have been selected to provide beginning instrumental music instruction two days per week in this “real world, hands on” situation, experiencing the many responsibilities and challenges associated with an instrumental music program.

According to the Joshua Academy Administration, "This has been a great win-win opportunity for both our Joshua Academy Bright Ones AND the University of Evansville aspiring teachers!"

The Joshua Academy Music Instruction ChangeLab is coached by Fran Vile, faculty member of the UE Music Conservatory.

MATHCOUNTS is a national math coaching and competition program for 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students. The program is run by the MATHCOUNTS Foundation, state and local chapters of the NSPE, and many, many volunteers. Participation in the program is through your school. MATHCOUNTS provides an opportunity for students to have fun while exploring areas of math that they may not see in their normal class curriculum. It also gives students a chance to be recognized for their achievements on both team and individual bases. The program targets this age group in order to influence their thinking about math, and to encourage them to continue challenging themselves in the subject as they select high school courses.

On February 11. 2023, the University of Evansville will be hosting the Southwestern Indiana Regional MATHCOUNTS Competition in Eykamp Hall. We are looking for Student/Faculty volunteers from the University of Evansville to help with the event, to serve as Proctors or Graders for the competition and to assist with signing in teams in the morning when they arrive.
If you are interested in assisting with this event, please Contact Tonya Albright (ta58@evansville.edu).
