OVC Top 3. The Eagles’ defense sits in the top three in two different categories in the OVC. USI is third in blocks with five solos, 118 assists, and 64 total with two per set. The Eagles also sit in a tie for third in digs with 480 digs and 15 per set.

Bednar’s Ohio Success. Bednar was able to secure an All-Tournament team selection in the Kent State Invitational. The outside/right side hitter tallied 26 digs, 22 kills, five blocks, and three aces in 10 sets played.

USI By The Set. This season, the Eagles have accumulated three opening set wins compared to winning just two sets between frames two through five. USI has lost in the third set five times and lost in the fourth set three times while only falling in a fifth set once.

Double-Doubles. There have been three Eagles who have reached the double-double mark this season. Anderson and Koch have secured three while sophomore Abby Weber has tallied two.

Income, Poverty and Health Insurance Coverage in the United States: 2021

IPHI Well-Being

SEPT. 13, 2022 — The U.S. Census Bureau announced today that real median household income in 2021 was not statistically different than 2020. The official poverty rate of 11.6% was also not statistically different between 2020 and 2021. The Supplemental Poverty Measure (SPM) rate in 2021 was 7.8%, a decrease of 1.4 percentage points from 2020. Meanwhile, the percentage of people with health insurance coverage for all or part of 2021 was 91.7% (compared to 91.4% in 2020.) An estimated 8.3% of people, or 27.2 million, did not have health insurance at any point during 2021, according to findings from the 2022 Current Population Survey Annual Social and Economic Supplement (CPS ASEC). That’s compared with an estimated 8.6% of people, or 28.3 million, who did not have health insurance at any point during 2020.

Real median household income was $70,784 in 2021, not statistically different from the 2020 estimate of $71,186. Income estimates are expressed in real or 2021 dollars to reflect changes in the cost of living. Between 2020 and 2021, inflation rose 4.7%; this is the largest annual increase in the cost-of-living adjustment since 1990. You can find more in-depth analysis in our recent Random Samplings blog.

USI MAC/Pace Galleries Exhibitions Through October

Two exhibitions—New Perspectives: Art & Design Faculty Exhibition and Mary Beth Edelson: Natural Pleasures—are simultaneously on display in the University of Southern Indiana’s McCutchan Art Center/Pace Galleries during the 2022 Fall Semester. The exhibitions will be on display from September 19 through October 21.

New Perspectives: USI Art & Design Faculty Exhibition features recent artworks by current faculty and staff who teach in the USI Art and Design department. Many new faculty have joined the department, and they all bring new viewpoints. Their work highlights the range of media and techniques championed by the department.

Participants in the show include Brett Anderson, Associate Professor of Art; Erika Anderson, Adjunct for the College of Liberal Arts; Chuck Armstrong, Assistant Professor of Graphic Design; Dr. Greg Blair Assistant Professor of Art; Caro Burks, Adjunct for the College of Liberal Arts; Sara Christensen Blair, Chair of the Art and Design department; Rob Dickes, Assistant Professor of Photography and Digital Imaging; Andrea Hoelscher, Adjunct for the College of Liberal Arts; David Huebner, Art Workshop Supervisor; Justin Kramer, Adjunct for the College of Liberal Arts; Epiphany Knedler, Adjunct for the College of Liberal Arts; Kirk Maynard, Assistant Professor of Art Education; Rob Millard-Mendez, Professor of Art; Sophia Okotah, Assistant Professor of Art and Design; Virginia Poston, Instructor in Art History; Nancy Raen-Mendez, Instructor in Art; and Katherine Watts, Adjunct for the College of Liberal Arts.

Concurrently, the MAC/Pace Galleries will feature Mary Beth Edelson: Natural Pleasures curated by Payton Broshears ’22, 2021-22 James A. Sanders Fellow.

“Mary Beth Edelson is considered one of the founders of the feminist art movement,” Broshears says. “Edelson challenged traditional art values, specifically the representation of women in art and the lack of recognition and opportunities for female artists. Through her activism, Edelson created a new dialogue surrounding gender which led the feminist art movement into the 21st century.”

The Natural Pleasures suite, a series of color relief prints, created during May 1985 and July 1986, is the result of a collaboration between Edelson, USI, the New Harmony Gallery of Contemporary Art, and the Patrick King Contemporary Art Gallery of Indianapolis. The 24 suites were bound in folios designed and constructed by Evansville artist Janice Greene. In addition to the prints, the artist’s process is illustrated through color studies, printing stencils, and artist proofs. The portfolio on display is from the University Art Collection.

A reception for the exhibitions will be held from 4:30-6 p.m. on October 28 in the Galleries located on the lower level of the Liberal Arts Center on campus. Visit USI.edu/galleries for more information.

These exhibitions will be displayed in the Galleries through October 21. The MAC/Pace Galleries, located on the lower level of the Liberal Arts Center are open 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday. and 1-4 p.m. Sundays.

EPD Statement on Lawsuit

0

The Plaintiffs and the City have settled the lawsuit. The City denies that it was negligent or that it contributed in any way to the injuries suffered by Janae Carter or the deaths of Terence Barker, Princess Carter, and Prince Carter.

During discovery in this lawsuit, evidence confirmed that Janae Carter and Terence Barker were both wearing their seatbelts and that their children, Princess and Prince Carter, were both child seats and seatbelts restrained when their vehicle was struck by Frederick McFarland. In 2020, Mr. McFarland pled guilty to causing Ms. Carter’s injuries and the deaths of Mr. Barker, Princess, and Prince.

Mr. McFarland is currently serving time in an Indiana prison as a result of his conviction; he settled with Plaintiff and was dismissed from this lawsuit in 2018.
