Ivy Tech Community College Classes Starting On Sept. 18, 2021

0

EVANSVILLE, Ind. – Ivy Tech Community College will offer its fall semester courses starting Wednesday, August 18 across its statewide campuses in-person*, virtually, and online. Hundreds of 16 and 8-week classes are available including through Learn Anywhere, a course delivery method that allows students to choose week-to-week if they will attend class in-person, virtually, or on-line.

With the College’s new approach to tuition, Ivy+, the cost of tuition has been frozen and all required textbooks will be FREE for the 2021-2022 academic school year. Ivy+ also includes a flat tuition rate for students enrolled full-time in 12 or more credit hours, meaning students can take 13, 14, 15, or more credits and graduate faster at no extra cost.

The Community College offers the most career-focused programs and graduates earn 12 percent more than the state average just one year after graduation. Partnering with employers and colleges, Ivy Tech serves prospective students whether they are working toward a certificate to join the workforce quickly, credits that easily transfer to four-year universities, or an associate degree that guarantees their admission to schools throughout Indiana.

Ivy Tech will start its next term of eight-week courses on October 20 and registration is currently open for those classes.

*Ivy Tech currently requires the use of a mask or face covering inside our buildings for all individuals (vaccinated or unvaccinated). For more information on our mask policy go to IvyTech.edu/covid19.

 

 

Vincennes University to Temporarily Return to Mask Mandate Indoors for All

Vincennes University to Temporarily Return to Mask Mandate Indoors for All
VINCENNES, Ind., August 3, 2021 – With classes set to resume on Monday, August 16, and students arriving next week, Vincennes University is looking forward to returning to a robust on-campus, face-to-face student experience. The University is doing all that it can to make the start of the school year a fun, fulfilling, and safe experience, while following the latest health guidance regarding the changing conditions of the pandemic in the areas it serves.
As a result, VU is announcing a temporary revision of its mask policy. Effective at 8 a.m. on Friday, August 6, all students, faculty, staff, and visitors are expected to wear a mask or face covering in indoor spaces at all VU campuses and sites throughout Indiana. No other changes in policy are anticipated at this time.
This change aligns with recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and with practices at other Indiana college and university campuses. The CDC recently revised its guidance that fully vaccinated individuals wear masks in public indoor settings in areas of substantial or high transmission to maximize protection from the Delta variant and prevent the possibility of spreading it to others. The new policy will remain in effect for the foreseeable future.
VU will continue to review its masking policy and will be prepared to make future modifications based on changing local conditions, along with guidelines and recommendations from the CDC, Indiana Department of Health, and relevant county health departments.
A mask or other appropriate face covering must be worn over the nose and mouth while in University buildings unless an individual is alone in a private space or eating/drinking or in spaces where all participants can safely socially distance.
Masks and face coverings are not currently required outdoors. In some cases, however, they may be required at specified outdoor events, where large crowds make social distancing impractical.
In addition to masking, individuals should continue to self-monitor for symptoms of COVID-19, practice good hand hygiene, and social distancing, wherever possible. VU employees and students who exhibit symptoms or have been in contact with someone with a known case of COVID-19 should stay home, self-isolate, and complete the VU COVID reporting form on MyVU, before awaiting instructions from a VU contact tracer.
VU is committed to protecting the health and safety of the VU community and appreciates everyone’s efforts to keep all VU stakeholders safe as we return to in person this fall. Please check the VU website for updates on VU COVID-19 policies and safety protocols.

Otters’ win streak snapped by ThunderBolts

0

The Evansville Otters fell short of extending their winning streak to eight games Tuesday, as the Windy City ThunderBolts edged out a 3-2 win over the Otters in their series opener on the south side of Chicago.

 

The Otters broke out to an early lead, scoring in the top of the first on an RBI fielder’s choice by Riley Krane and a base hit from Elijah MacNamee that led to a fielding error, scoring Krane from first.

 

Tim Holdgrafer would put up a critical zero in the bottom of the first by working around a two-out walk and striking out the side, such that after one Evansville led 2-0.

 

The ThunderBolts would tally their first run in the bottom of the third, when Brynn Martinez singled home John Sechen, who had reached on a hit-by-pitch, with two out in the bottom of the third.

 

Windy City would then tie the game in the next inning, when Zach Racusin collected an RBI double that scored Jairus Richards from second with no one out. Holdgrafer would end up stranding Racusin at third with less than two out in the inning to keep the game tied for the fifth.

 

The T-Bolts would scratch across another run for the third consecutive inning in the bottom of the fifth, when Peyton Robinson scored from second on a bunt single by Martinez that was thrown wide of the first base bag on an errant throw by Holdgrafer. Holdgrafer quickly rolled a double play ball to clean up the inning and limit the damage to one. After five innings of play, the ThunderBolts led 3-2, which would hold for the final score.

 

Otters starter Tim Holdgrafer took the loss, while Bryan Ketchie earned the win in his ThunderBolts debut. Stetson Woods earned the save after pitching a 1-2-3 ninth.

 

The Otters will look to even the series Wednesday when they send Braden Scott (4-2, 2.85 ERA) to the mound. First pitch is scheduled for 7:05 p.m., and fans can listen to an audio broadcast of  the game on the Otters’ YouTube channel with a 6:50 p.m. pregame show.
