Southern Indiana Career & Technical Center Students To Showcase Drone Training

0
Students enrolled in the EVSC’s Southern Indiana Career and Technical Center engineering and radio/broadcasting classes have been working all year to train in operating small unmanned aerial systems (sUAS), also known as drones. In addition to course curriculum, students received 10 hours of flight training which will culminate tomorrow at the Vanderburgh County 4H Center where students will once again have the opportunity to showcase what they have learned and send their sUAS into the air.
In addition to completing coursework, some of the students took and passed the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) exam to obtain a Remote Pilot Certification which allows students to operate a sUAS in a business/industry setting. By having these skills and qualifications, students have yet another option for employment in a number of fields, including construction, broadcasting, public safety, and even agriculture.
The program was created by the Southern Indiana Career and Technical Center to fill the need in the community to educate students on how to properly operate a sUAS and give companies that are expanding into this type of technology an employment pool of certified remote pilots.

Gould picks up two more accolades

 Already a 2-time All-Missouri Valley Conference First Team player, University of Evansville sophomore Eryn Gould picked up two more accolades in recent days.

Gould was named to the All-Tournament Team at the 2019 MVC Softball Championship in Peoria, Ill. on Saturday before earning a spot on the MVC Scholar-Athlete Second Team on Sunday.

In the Purple Aces’ contest in Peoria, Gould was UE’s top performer.  She went 2-3 with a walk; she had two of the Aces’ six hits in the game.

Overall, Gould batted .306 in the regular season, but saw that average rise to .338 in league play.  Over 25 conference games, Gould slugged .563 while hitting four homers and 15 RBI while scoring 18 runs and walking on 18 occasions.

Throughout the course of the season, she led the Aces in at-bats, runs, hits, doubles, home runs, RBI, slugging and walks.  Gould had a 12-game hit streak in April and was named the MVC Player of the Week on April 22.  Gould is a Biology major and has a GPA of 3.39.
