He had no idea he was about to have a heart attack. But within 25 minutes of entering the ER at Community Hospital South, Dave had a stent in place and disaster was averted. All because he knew the warning signs and took quick action. Now he encourages everyone to get an annual health screening. Like the ones Community Health Network holds at the elementary school where Dave is principal. Living proof you’re never too old to learn. Exceptional care. Simply delivered.

Badertscher Submitted to the faculty of the University Graduate School in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy, Indiana University May 2015 Accepted by the Graduate Faculty, Indiana University, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. ______________________________ Dwight F. Burlingame, Ph.D., Chair Doctoral Committee ______________________________ Robert G. Barrows, Ph.D. March 6, 2015 ______________________________ Nancy Marie Robertson, Ph.D. ______________________________ Philip V. Scarpino, Ph.D. ii Acknowledgments My thanks begin with my doctoral committee. Dwight Burlingame advised me throughout my entire program, chose the perfect readings for me in our dissertation seminar, helped me shape the project, and read each chapter promptly and thoughtfully. His steadfast belief in my scholarship and his infinite kindness have been invaluable. Phil Scarpino and Bob Barrows led the seminars during which my dissertation idea took shape. Nancy Robertson challenged me to look at the work from many different angles and suggested a veritable treasure trove of scholarship upon which to draw. All their questions, comments, guidance, and encouragement have helped my work more than mere words can express. My colleagues in the doctoral program and students in the undergraduate program provided unwavering support as I lovingly talked about my research, “my organization,” and “my time period.” I especially thank Barbara Duffy, who chose the Charity Organization Society of Indianapolis (1879-1883) for her History of Philanthropy doctoral seminar research project. I enjoyed talking about “our women,” sharing our emerging ideas, swapping sources, and basking in one another’s “Eureka!” moments as we made one connection after another.

  • Lights out Indy: Continuing to Move Forward by Austin Broadwater, Lights out Indy Chair
    AUDUBON LIFELINES SEPT/OCT 2019 A PUBLICATION OF AMOS BUTLER AUDUBON SOCIETY A CHAPTER OF THE NATIONAL AUDUBON SOCIETY Issue #1 Amy Hodson • Have an idea for a story? Send an email to [email protected] Lights Out Indy: Continuing to Move Forward By Austin Broadwater, Lights Out Indy Chair all migration is just around the corner. Over the next few months, countless birds will be making their nocturnal voyages Facross the country, continent, and even further, to their winter homes. With so many obstacles along the way, our duty as nature lovers is to make that path the least treacherous as possible. ABAS is doing its best to make that a reality. The Lights Out Indy initiative is starting to gain more traction since it started doing bi-annual surveys. With our team of seven volunteers, we were able to collect 62 birds among 36 species in the metropolitan area during this past spring. This included such favorites as the Ruby-throated Hummingbird, Scarlet Tanagers, Indigo Buntings, a Baltimore Oriole, Yellow-billed Cuckoos, and various warblers, thrushes and sparrows. Even a Virginia Rail, Sora, Sharp-shinned Hawk, and several American Woodcocks were sampled. The concrete jungles scattered across the United States result in countless bird fatalities every year. Fortunately, eight of the recovered birds were alive when they were found. They were transported to rehab centers, and hopefully recovered from their collisions. The other specimens were transported to the Eagle Creek Park Ornithology Center for future education and research. Two collection routes were traveled 17 times from April 1 through May 31 with volunteers focusing their attention on the major glass-paneled buildings of downtown Indianapolis.
