When Mary Lue Russler began working at USI—then Indiana State University-Evansville (ISUE)—back in 1969, it wasn't for money, because there wasn't any. She never expected to work there for more than 20 years, much less help establish one of the first scholarship endowments with funds primarily raised by and from employees.
USI celebrated the inauguration of its fifth President, Steven J. Bridges '89 M'95, on October 16 with a ceremony held at Liberty Arena, Home of the Screaming Eagles. This momentous achievement is the culmination of a career both built on purpose and built on numbers.
