University of Evansville to Offer Master of Science in Leadership
The University of Evansville has announced that it will launch a new Master of Science in Leadership program this fall. The two-year hybrid program, combining periodic on-campus weekend instruction with online instruction, provides an opportunity for working professionals to grow and advance in leadership skills that are pivotal to success in today’s dynamic work environments.Â
The 36-credit-hour program will develop innovative and visionary leaders who will be prepared to take their organizations to the next level. The program offers a focused core curriculum in the foundations of leadership but allows the opportunity for students to select a specific concentration area. Current concentration areas focus on higher education, nonprofit leadership, and public health.Â
 “The curriculum allows students to set individualized leadership development goals and to achieve them through the knowledge, skills, insights, and experience they gain as a part of the program,†says Jill Griffin, UE’s faculty program director. “Developing and honing skills in teamwork, communication, cultural competence, visioning, innovation, and change management, our graduates will be prepared for the complexities of leadership in today’s dynamic workplaces.†Â
The hybrid cohort program offers competitive pricing for adult learners at $525 per credit hour. Applications are now being accepted for a Fall 2018 start for those individuals looking to gain knowledge and the skillsets necessary to grow personally and professionally. Â
“The hybrid format will provide the flexibility for our working adults to advance their careers while still maintaining a good work-life balance,†says Lindsay Roberts, UE director of adult education. “The students will be on campus for instruction on pre-scheduled Saturdays and will also complete online learning components.â€
For more information about the innovative curriculum or application details, please contact the Center for Adult Education at 812-488-2981 or cae@evansville.edu.Â
IEHA to Host the 68th Annual Fall Education Conference at Old National Events Plaza
Old National Events Plaza will host Indiana Environmental Health Association’s 68th Annual Fall Education Conference, September 24-26, 2018. The organization last hosted their conference in Evansville in 1998.
With a membership over 400+ from all over the state of Indiana, the conference looks to combine education, professional development, and technical proficiency during their time in Evansville. The two-and-a-half-day conference will generate approximately 400+ sleeping room nights.
“We are thrilled to host IEHA’s Fall Education Conference in September,†said Alexis Berggren, general manager, for Old National Events Plaza. “We look forward to welcoming their attendees back to Evansville, a destination that the organization has not met in for 20 years, and I am confident that our community will deliver an outstanding experience that we hope will lead to more meetings and partnership with IEHA in the future!â€
Conventioneers traveling all over the state to attend the conference are employed by federal, state and local governments, schools, medical care facilities, industries, trade organizations, solid waste districts and are students and educators of environmental health.
“After many hours of careful consideration, we are pleased to announce Evansville as the home of our 68th annual Fall Education Conference! Evansville offers us excellent opportunities and amenities for our conference and its attendees as well as a chance to see how the city has changed in the 20 years since we were last there. We want to thank everyone who has helped with the selection effort thus far, and thank them for our continued help in making our long-awaited return to Evansville a huge success!â€Â – JoAnn Xiong Mercado, IEHA President-Elect
The annual conference aims to further promote the organization’s mission: to promote, preserve and protect environmental public health in the state of Indiana, and to encourage a spirit of cooperation among all environmental health stakeholders while serving its members in the regulatory, industry, and academic communities.
Indiana Environmental Health Association has planned a full conference schedule in hopes to further accomplish their key goals. IEHA works closely with other Environmental and Public Health Protection Agencies and Departments to control environmental hazards and to attain optimum human health.

Indiana Gov. Eric J. Holcomb will participate in the 2018 SelectUSA Investment Summit in Washington, D.C. June 20-21. SelectUSA is a U.S. Department of Commerce program dedicated to facilitating job-creating business investment into the United States. At its fifth annual summit, SelectUSA will convene global executives and business leaders to discuss opportunities in key sectors—including infrastructure, energy and advanced manufacturing—as well as issues like tax and regulatory reform, trade, infrastructure and workforce development.
While there, he will participate in meetings with business executives and government leaders. On Thursday, he will give remarks highlighting Indiana’s global economy and Next Level Jobs workforce initiative. The governor will be joined by Indiana Secretary of Commerce Jim Schellinger, Indiana Economic Development Corporation President Elaine Bedel and a delegation of economic development professionals from across Indiana.

Indiana is home to more than 950 foreign-owned business establishments that support approximately 190,900 Hoosier jobs across the state. Indiana has the highest percentage of private sector jobs coming from foreign-owned firms in the Midwest, and that number continues to grow as companies like India-based Infosys, China-based SF Motors, Israel-based MCP USA, Germany-based ElringKlinger, and Japan-based Subaru, Toyota and Honda choose to locate and expand in Indiana.
Jury awards $15M after Indiana cancer patient’s misread CT scan
Dave Stafford for www.theindianalawyer.com
A federal jury Friday awarded $15 million in damages on behalf of a woman who claimed a Carmel imaging center failed to identify a tumor that went untreated and undetected for nearly 18 months, severely reducing her chances of surviving cancer.
The jury returned its verdict Friday after a four-day trial, awarding $14 million to Courtney Webster and $1 million to her husband, Brian Webster. The jury found Center for Diagnostic Imaging, Inc., doing business as CDI Indiana LLC, was responsible for the conduct of a doctor who failed to identify a tumor after Courtney underwent a CT scan in November 2014.
The Websters sued Minnesota-based CDI in October 2016, claiming that the tumor went undiagnosed until May 2016 and CDI was negligent.
“As a direct and proximate result of CDI and CDI Indiana’s substandard care, Courtney Webster’s rectal cancer grew and spread, significantly reducing her chances of surviving the disease, significantly altering her treatment options, and causing her severe pain, suffering and emotional distress,†the complaint alleged.
CDI denied responsibility in the case and asserted that the corporation did not operate the center and was not a medical provider. The company argued in response to the suit that it “provided certain management services to an Indiana professional corporation that provided diagnostic imaging services†at its location at 11900 N. Pennsylvania St.
Because of its stance in the case, CDI was not subject to caps on damages that typically would be in place when medical providers opt in to coverage under the Indiana Medical Malpractice Act. Had CDI been covered by the act, Webster’s recoverable malpractice damages would have been capped at $1.25 million.
“We’re just thrilled the jury came back with a verdict that reflects the magnitude of the harm in this case,†plaintiff attorney Jerry Garau said Tuesday afternoon. He said that before the suit was filed, Webster was diagnosed with a form of stage 4 cancer that has a survival rate of about 10 percent over five years. He said she is currently undergoing chemotherapy treatment.
Along with Garau, the Websters are represented by Barbara Germano and Kathleen DeLaney. CDI is represented by attorneys from Bleeke Dillon Crandall, P.C., and Katz Korin Cunningham.
“This is a very difficult case that involves a number of complicated issues,†a CDI spokesman said in a statement Tuesday afternoon. “We’re clearly very disappointed in the verdict, and we’re strongly considering all options including appeal. As a result, we are not in a position to discuss the case further at this time.â€
The case before Chief Judge Jane Magnus Stinson in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Indiana is Webster, et al. v. Center for Diagnostic Imaging, Inc., et al., 1:16-cv-02677.
