Campus News and Events

On December 17, 2021, IU School of Medicine–Evansville announced $34.2 million gift from Evansville natives William C. and Mary R. (O’Daniel) Stone to establish the Mary O’Daniel Stone and Bill Stone Center for Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. 

The center will seek to fundamentally alter and improve the standard of care for people with bipolar disorder, and dramatically increase access to psychiatric care for the children and adolescent youth of southwestern Indiana. 

This gift, one of the largest in IU School of Medicine history, follows the 2018 gift of $15 million the Stones made toward a multi-institutional health sciences collaboration between the University of Evansville, University of Southern Indiana and Indiana University. 

Year-round, the Evansville community offers a growing list of cultural events as well as fun-runs and park experiences. The medical school also hosts a series of popular events for students and the community, including the Annual Scholarship Banquet, held each spring to recognize academic achievement, and the Alumni and Friends Celebration with guest of honor Dean Hess, held every November to recognize and give thanks to IU School of Medicine–Evansville alumni, donors and friends.

The annual Patrick J.V. and Margaret B. Corcoran Lecture is an endowed lectureship honoring the memory of the founding director of the southwestern regional campus, IU School of Medicine-Evansville.
