Ivy Tech Students to Install HVAC in Renovated Home Through Service Learning Project

0

Students studying in Ivy Tech’s School of Advanced Manufacturing, Engineering & Applied Technology, are not only getting an opportunity for some hands-on learning in a home installation of an HVAC system, but also giving back to the community as they work with the agency Community One.

Community One is a Christian non-profit Community Development Corporation, addressing housing restoration and community development needs in the Evansville area. One of its engagement platforms is to take vacant and dilapidated homes in under-served neighborhoods and rehabilitate them for use. Their work is privately funded, volunteer-based and collaborative. Whole house rehabs remove blight and decay, reduce the density of substandard rental housing, provides affordable low-income housing, increases volunteerism into neighborhoods in need of help, hope and love, and among other things, brings new invested homeowners into neighborhoods.

Ivy Tech’s Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning Chair Don Merle, said that Community One is investing in neighborhoods and people’s lives by bringing a house back to life in the community. He said he believes in passing along that sentiment to his students through service learning.

“We as students, and as human beings, get to make a difference by participating in projects like this and helping each other out.” Plus, he explained students are completing an entire project. “In the classroom we do pieces of projects, but with an assignment like this, they see it through from start to completion.” Merle said the class regularly does one service learning project a year.

Students begin by developing a plan after visiting the home and seeing what needs to be done. Then they rough out that plan and work with the agency to get the materials needed. Finally, they install the entire air duct system, furnace, and air conditioner – giving students the hands-on education they need in completing a project; and providing some future homeowner a brand new HVAC system in their home.

Retired Judge Tinder to lead Task Force on Public Defense

0

IL for www.theindianalwyer.com

A former 7th Circuit Court of Appeals Judge is stepping into a new role as chair of an effort designed to assess the current state of Indiana’s public defender system.

Judge John Tinder, who retired from the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals two years ago, has accepted the Indiana Public Defender Commission’s invitation to lead the Indiana Task Force on Public Defense, a new group tasked with recommending improvements to the state’s public defender system. Tinder is stepping into the leadership role after U.S. District Judge Larry McKinney, who was initially selected to lead the task force, died last month.

Tinder’s legal career prior to ascending to the 7th Circuit bench included work as a public defender, as well as a state and federal prosecutor and judge of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Indiana, where he served alongside McKinney.

“Judge Larry McKinney was a dear friend and a great colleague of mine,” Tinder said in a statement. “His untimely death was a great loss to the legal community. I am privileged to carry on the work of this important task force.”

The commission created the task force last month after the Sixth Amendment Center released a report last year that was critical of Indiana’s system of public defense and questioned whether the state was meeting its constitutional obligation to provide counsel to indigent criminal defendants. Likewise, public defenders from around the state recently raised concerns to lawmakers about growing caseloads and offered suggestions for ways to infuse their offices with additional funds.

To address the issues found in its report, the Sixth Amendment Center called for greater accountability and oversight of the state’s public defense system and structural changes to ensure sufficient resources and compensation. Under Tinder’s leadership, the 16-person task force will study the current state of the public defender system and make its own recommendations for changes or improvements.

The task force will hold a series of meetings and public hearings throughout the state to elicit ideas from public defenders and other stakeholders. It is also accepting public comment, which can be submitted via email to information@pdcom.in.gov, or through the mail to Indiana Task Force on Public Defense, 309 West Washington St., Suite 501, Indianapolis, 46208. The task force’s next meeting will be from 1-3 p.m. Oct. 27 at the same address.
