Vincennes University’s Techmester introduces in-demand careers to high schoolers

0

VINCENNES, Ind., – Robots rolled, machines carved out custom wrenches, and rescue boats became hands-on classrooms during Vincennes University’s Techmester.

The three-day summer experience for Early College high school students was held June 10-12. From mastering sterile procedures in surgical technology to learning about forensics by developing fingerprints, students had the opportunity to explore high-demand careers with the help of VU professors and VU students.

Dean of CTE Early College Stefany Deckard said, “Techmester plants seeds of inspiration. When students experience what they’re capable of, it changes how they think about their futures.”

By connecting students to careers in Cybersecurity, Robotics, Law Enforcement, Health Sciences, and Precision Machining, Techmester is a bold investment in Indiana’s talent pipeline. The students dove into real-world learning through various specialized workshops where they had opportunities to build and code robots, don life vests and helmets while hurling water rescue throw bags at a target, and make name tags and other items using state-of-the-art machining equipment.

These immersive experiences aren’t simply activities. They are career-shaping moments.

Students like Luke Appleby, who attends New Palestine High School, took with them a better understanding of what interests and excites them. 

“I liked fingerprinting,” Appleby said. “We took something and put a fingerprint on it, and then we dusted it and could see our own fingerprint. I thought it was cool because that’s actually what people do at crime scenes. This really shows if you are interested in that field or not. You’re not just guessing.”

Students also tasted Trailblazer life, eating in the dining halls, living in residence halls, enjoying VU’s Bowling Center, and doing other fun activities, helping them to build connections and feel at home in a college setting.

By introducing students to academic programs and vibrant campus life, VU lays the groundwork for student success before they finish high school.

Lt. Governor Beckwith, OCRA announce eight communities to receive nearly $1 million in federal grants

0
INDIANAPOLIS– The Office of Lt. Governor Micah Beckwith and the Indiana Office of Community and Rural Affairs today announced eight Indiana communities will receive nearly $1 million in Owner-Occupied Rehabilitation Grants and Planning Grants through the Community Development Block Grant program.

Owner-Occupied Rehabilitation grants will be used to empower these communities to directly fund homeowners of low-to-moderate income to make needed repairs on their homes. While communities awarded Planning Grants will use the funding to develop plans for long-term planning efforts.

“By directing resources straight to local leaders and hardworking Hoosiers, we’re ensuring taxpayer dollars deliver real results,” Lieutenant Governor Beckwith said. “These grants create safer homes for families, allow research on potentially dangerous situations, and provide strategies to expand and thrive economically.  Empowering communities produces private-sector growth and secures an even brighter future for Indiana.”

Communities awarded an Owner-Occupied Rehabilitation Grant will establish a program to help fund low- and moderate-income homeowners make repairs on their homes. Eligible repairs include roof repair or replacement, ADA accessibility, heating and cooling replacement, lighting and electrical upgrades, and water heater replacement.

An Owner Occupied Rehabilitation Grant is awarded to Rush County for $500,000. 

“Congratulations to these eight communities awarded Community Development Block Grant funding,” OCRA Executive Director Fred Glynn said. “Local leaders are making concerted efforts to improve their communities for the long-term. Whether it’s an Owner Occupied Rehabilitation Grant or one of our Planning Grants, I commend these communities for taking action to improve the local quality of life.”

The Planning Grant program encourages communities to plan for sustainable community development with the aid of subject matter experts and community input. The applications being funded this quarter address comprehensive planning efforts, water utilities, downtown revitalization and broadband readiness.

Comprehensive Planning Grants are designed to aid communities in evaluating assets and identifying opportunities to address current needs in the following areas: land use, government capacity, public services, placemaking, economic development, housing, transportation, agriculture, natural resources and historic resources.

Comprehensive Planning Grants of $50,000 each are awarded to the following communities:

  • The Town of St. Paul
  • The Town of Versailles

Utility Study Planning Grants provide a summary of potential issues and opportunities across drinking, wastewater and stormwater infrastructure. By completing this planning, communities will be able to make decisions regarding their most urgent water needs while understanding how each system works in context with other utility systems.

Utility Study Planning Grants are awarded to the following communities:

  • The Town of Farmland is awarded $90,000
  • The Town of Kentland is awarded $90,000
  • The Town of Walton is awarded $87,284
  • The Town of Shelburn is awarded $90,000

Downtown Revitalization Planning Grants aim to provide a comprehensive strategy for revitalizing the downtown area in rural communities by addressing demographic, economic and social aspects, as well as physical and cultural conditions. The plan serves as a roadmap for leveraging current assets, securing funding sources, and building community engagement to revitalize the downtown business district area and promote economic growth.

A Downtown Revitalization Planning Grant of $40,000 is awarded to the Town of Fairmont.

Interior Announces Nearly $725 Million to Reclaim Abandoned Coal Mines

0

Investment advances energy independence and economic renewal in coal-producing communities 

WASHINGTON — As part of President Donald J. Trump’s America First Energy Agenda, the Department of the Interior today announced the availability of nearly $725 million in fiscal year 2025 funding to clean up abandoned coal mines and restore opportunity in America’s historic coal communities.

The funding, managed by the Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement, supports state and tribal-led efforts to eliminate dangerous mine hazards, restore clean water access and transform abandoned lands into economic engines. President Trump’s plan to revitalize coal country and deliver real results for working Americans represents a strategic enhancement of federal funding.

“President Trump made it clear that no American community should be left behind—and today we’re delivering on that promise,” said Adam Suess, Acting Assistant Secretary for Land and Minerals Management. “This is about unleashing new opportunities and putting people back to work. These grants are proof that we can clean up the past while building a stronger energy future.”

Twenty-two eligible states and the Navajo Nation will receive funding under this program, with grants based on historic coal production. States and tribes will lead project selection and oversee implementation, ensuring solutions are customized to local needs and conditions.

Top Fiscal Year 2025 Awards Include:

  • Pennsylvania — $244.8 million
  • West Virginia — $140.7 million
  • Illinois — $75.7 million
  • Kentucky — $74.2 million
  • Ohio — $46.4 million
  • Navajo Nation — $1.7 million

These investments also reflect Secretary Burgum’s vision of a more modern, efficient federal government that delivers value to the American people by cutting red tape, accelerating project delivery and partnering directly with local leaders.

“Working with our state and tribal partners to restore abandoned mine lands confirms our commitment to the communities that powered our country for generations,” said Thomas Shope, OSMRE Regional Director, exercising the delegated authority of the Director. “Rather than leaving these lands to waste, we are putting them back to work for the American people.”
