FACES OF THE CORONAVIRUS RECESSION
How the economy downturn is aff ecting lives and votes in Ohio
Alexander Coolidge Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
How do we begin to understand the impact of the “Coronavirus Recession?” Its destruction ranges far beyond the springtime shutdown of our favorite restaurants and it runs deeper than a lull in retail sales or hotel bookings. Early this year more than 22 million Americans lost their jobs (including almost 900,000 in Ohio), according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. While slightly more than half have gotten their jobs back, the momentum is slowing and leaders in Washington are battling over a new deal to further stimulate the economy. Many economists fear a full recovery is two or more years away and that economic anxiety has now become a factor in next month’s elections. How bad is it and how hard did it get us? In the past several weeks, The Enquirer spoke with workers and small business owners from all over Greater Cincinnati, asking how the downturn has aff ected their lives, their work – and their votes. One’s a maintenance worker who was proud to be working at one of the region’s premier employers until GE Aviation laid him off . Another had a dream internship at Disney World in Orlando that ended abruptly and left him looking for new work from his parents’ basement. Yet another was a professor at Miami

Anderson Twp. trustee blames Michigan governor for foiled plot to kidnap her Scott Wartman Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
A day after the FBI revealed a foiled plot to kidnap Michigan’s governor, a suburban Cincinnati politician blamed the governor, saying she was “responsible for this.” Anderson Township Trustee Andrew Pappas, a Republican who has a history of sparking controversy with his online comments, addressed Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer in the post on Facebook on Oct. 9. “Your actions have caused this,” Pappas wrote in the post. “Your arbitrary rules and edicts, which have been declared unconstitutional btw, have decimated thousands of Michiganders and their businesses.”
On Oct. 8, several people were charged with conspiring to kidnap Whitmer, a Democrat who faced intense criticism for lockdowns and other eff orts to prevent Pappas the spread of COVID-19. Pappas told The Enquirer he wasn’t blaming Whitmer for the kidnapping plot or implying she deserved it. He said he was responding to Whitmer’s criticism of President Donald Trump. “I’m clearly responding to her attack on the president. The president is not responsible,” Pappas told The Enquirer. Whitmer criticized President Donald Trump on Oct. 8 for “stoking distrust Screenshot of Anderson Township (OH) Trustee Andrew Pappas' post SCREENSHOT

and fomenting anger” and took aim at Trump’s comments during the presidential debate telling white supremacist group Proud Boys to “stand back and stand by.” Trump then blasted at Whitmer on Twitter saying she has “done a terrible job.” Pappas took the president’s side. “Your reactions to peaceful protests at your capitol, and your attempt to coerce local businesses to put you and your family in front of others have caused this,” Pappas wrote to Whitmer on Facebook. “It’s sad that rather realize this, you have chosen to blame the President. There is one person responsible for this madam. Look in the mirror.” Pappas told The Enquirer that he doesn’t condone violence or the plot to kidnap the governor and that “the people who planned the attack are nuts.” But he maintained Whitmer’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic has angered people. “I’m saying her actions worked peo-

ple up into an emotional state,” Pappas told The Enquirer. Many politicians reacted with shock and dismay upon learning of the foiled plot to kidnap Michigan’s governor. Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine called the plot against Gov. Gretchen Whitmer a “despicable act.” Here is the full text of Pappas’ post. “Gov. Whitmer, With all due respect. Donald Trump has zero to do with the recent planned criminal activity against you, stupid and horrifi c as it was. You trying to attack the President over it is quite stupid as well. I know the people of your state. Your actions have caused this. Your arbitrary rules and edicts, which have been declared unconstitutional btw, have decimated thousands of Michiganders and their businesses. Your reactions to peaceful protests at your capitol, and your attempt to coerce local businesses to put you and your family in front of others have caused this. It’s sad that rather realize this, you have chosen to blame the President. There is one person responsible for this madam. Look in the mirror.”

disappeared since February. Further cuts are likely as governments look to slash costs to close budget gaps. How deep they cut depends on what Washington decides on any stimulus. HER VOTE? She plans to vote for Democrat Joe Biden because she believes he will work harder to combat the pandemic and fund education. “The Republicans don’t support public education.” HER STORY: Until she was let go by Miami University in April, Durgun liked to think she was helping her students become better citizens. She was born in Turkey but partly raised in Ohio. As a naturalized citizen, she believed she was giving her students a richer understanding of American Studies. In January, Durgun was confi dent she’d return for the 2020-21 school year as a non-tenured visiting professor. But a month into the pandemic, the staterun school decided to slash costs with scores of cuts: the elimination of unfi lled positions, layoff s and the non-renewal of positions like hers. She was informed she wouldn’t have a teaching position – after most other colleges had already made their hiring decisions for the upcoming fall term. A recently-minted Ph.D. with nearly $200,000 in student loans, she may have to leave Ohio to fi nd a job that will lead to tenure. That prospect is also hard because she feels she needs to delay getting married and starting a family until her career is more stable. Right now, she’s making ends meet teaching online courses part-time for a college in Virginia. “The public doesn’t realize ... People assume professors have a stable position,” Durgun said.
When air travel crashed worldwide, he lost a ‘retirement job’ WHO: Brad Horn, 35, Whitewater Township JOB: Former machine operator at manufacturer GE Aviation HOW WAS HE AFFECTED? He was furloughed, then laid off in April. HIS FIELD IN THIS ECONOMY: Manufacturing jobs are still down 650,000 positions nationwide, but the sector has recovered slightly better

than the overall economy. Trouble is – jobs in aerospace parts are dependent on the airline industry, which has slashed fl ights and is threatening massive cutbacks as stimulus talks drag on. One out of 30 of all U.S. jobs in aerospace are within 30 miles of Fountain Square in downtown Cincinnati. HIS VOTE? Horn thinks Trump has been unfairly blamed for the pandemic and its aftermath. He will vote to reelect the president. HIS STORY: For decades, GE Aviation has been a pillar of Cincinnati’s manufacturing sector, employing 9,000 well-paid workers in the region. Until April, Horn, a father of three, was one of them. “It was a good job – it was a (last until) retirement job,” Horn said. While its parent company General Electric was deep into a multi-year restructuring, GE Aviation was its largest, most profi table business unit propping up the rest of the Boston-based conglomerate. For decades, even during economic downturns in the U.S. or Europe, there was always heavy demand for jet engines to power surging air travel in Asia, the Middle East and elsewhere. Then the pandemic hit, sending worldwide demand for air travel into a tailspin. GE Aviation announced it would cut 25% of its worldwide headcount, including 605 workers based here. “It happened so fast – they went from business as usual, to slowing down and being scared, to laying off by April,” Horn said. Horn is looking at his options, seeking to replace most of his previous salary, but says it won’t be easy. He’s also See FACES, Page 4A

considering looking for a job in the construction industry. “There’s not many people paying even half as much as GE,” he said.
Clients had to cut costs and ‘marketing was the fi rst to go’ WHO: Lauren Anderson, 61, Hyde Park JOB: Owner of marketing and branding fi rm The Creative Department HOW WAS SHE AFFECTED? She was forced to lay off two employees and one contractor. HER FIELD IN THIS ECONOMY: Marketing & branding is part of the professional and business services sector, which has shed 1.4 million jobs since February and recovering slower than the overall economy. Advertising and related services have lost almost 50,000 jobs alone. HER VOTE? Anderson declined to share her political views. HER STORY: Lauren Anderson’s marketing and branding agency, The Creative Department, had just moved into bigger offi ces in Cincinnati’s Pendleton neighborhood in January when the pandemic threatened her small business that now employs 12. A slowdown in marketing is bad for Cincinnati – the hometown of major advertisers, Procter & Gamble and Kroger. The region is dotted with dozens of specialized fi rms that help clients with everything from package design to consumer insights. As emergency shutdowns slammed the brakes on the economy, Anderson’s clients quickly began backing out. “It seemed like every week we were getting cancellations – clients were cutting costs and marketing was the fi rst (expense) to go,” said Anderson, who recalls past close calls during the 2000 and 2008 recessions that shocked her industry. Anderson had a strategy session and decided to make a hard pivot: quickly grabbing two new startup clients fl ush with venture capital money to stabilize her business. She still had to lay off two workers and a regular contractor. “It’s hard because we’re a small outfi t and everyone is like family,” Anderson said.

Security jobs vulnerable to cutbacks WHO: Robert Richardson, 38, West Price Hill JOB: Security supervisor for a logistics company HOW WAS HE AFFECTED? Despite a recent promotion, he’s struggling to get enough hours. HIS FIELD IN THIS ECONOMY: Nearly 70,000 jobs in security work have been lost as part of the cuts to professional and business services in 2020. HIS VOTE? Undecided. “I don’t have a good feeling about either Trump or Biden. This really has me.” HIS STORY: Robert Richardson has managed to hold onto his security job – and even managed to get a promotion in 2020. But multiple facility shutdowns have meant fewer hours this year, which has forced him to do odd jobs to make up the shortfall in his paychecks. He’s considering looking at other fi elds for more stable work. He helps support two small children from a previous relationship. “They’re what keep me going – if it was just me, I’m not sure I’d be trying this hard,” Richardson said.
Will customers dine outside in winter? WHO: Jose Salazar, 46, Columbia Tusculum JOB: Chef and owner of three restaurants: Salazar’s, Mita’s and Goose & Elder HOW WAS HE AFFECTED? The pandemic forced him to temporarily shut down two of his three restaurants and lay off most of his staff . His sales still haven’t recovered. HIS FIELD IN THIS ECONOMY: Bars and restaurants were the hardest hit employer. While eateries have staged a major comeback, there are still 2.3 million jobs gone – that’s almost 1 of 5 jobs that vanished from the sector. HIS VOTE? Salazar expressed reluctant support for Joe Biden. “I’m not thrilled, but he’s the better candidate.” HIS STORY: For now, Jose Salazar said, his three restaurants in Over-TheRhine and Downtown are hanging on. A veteran of the industry, he’s used to getting by on thin profi t margins. Before the pandemic, Downtown and OverThe-Rhine restaurants like his were thriving and credited with injecting new

vitality in the city’s urban core. But now the entire restaurant industry is under unprecedented strain. Social distancing requirements limit restaurants’ seating to serve customers. Demand is also down with nearby offi ces nearly empty, tourism way down and some patrons just scared. Salazar said his restaurants are currently doing about 60% of their previous sales with about three-quarters of preCOVID-19 staff . While he praises city and local leaders for quickly authorizing outdoor seating for Cincinnati restaurants that allowed them to seat more customers safely, Salazar worries about the coming winter months. Salazar knows how bad it could get if his industry doesn’t recover. During the spring shutdowns, Mita’s hosted a restaurant workers relief program (as part of a multi-city eff ort in partnership with the Lee Initiative and Maker’s Mark) that handed out 11,000 meals to local industry workers. “My biggest concern is what happens when you can’t eat outside anymore and people don’t want to eat inside – that’s what’s scary,” Salazar said.
Nurses aide: ‘Every day you just say a prayer and hope for the best.’ WHO: Jackie Davis, 34, Cheviot JOB: Nurses aide in a nursing home HOW WAS SHE AFFECTED? Her hours are beginning to shrink as jobs in her fi eld get cut. HER FIELD IN THIS ECONOMY: Despite a health care crisis, America is still missing nearly 670,000 jobs in health care. Nursing and residential care homes have been particularly hard hit – losing more than 230,000 jobs. HER VOTE? She plans to vote for Biden. She believes Trump mishandled

the pandemic, which made it and the economy worse. HER STORY: Davis, a single mother of four children, works as a nursing assistant in a residential and rehabilitation facility, which has tightly controlled visits to prevent a COVID-19 outbreak. “I was worried at fi rst, but you gown up and suit up,” Davis said. “Every day you just say a prayer and hope for the best.” While she was jittery about the pandemic at fi rst, lately she’s eyeing her hours. With visits down – so are new residents at her facility, which reduces the overall workload for employees. Recently, her hours have slipped from 46 to 36 hours a week. “I hope things pick up soon,” she said. If things don’t improve, Davis is considering looking at opportunities at hospitals.
Personal trainer shops at supermarket for new career WHO: AJ Penley, 24, Mount Washington JOB: Previously a personal trainer and now working at Kroger HOW WAS HE AFFECTED? He lost fi tness clients, then his job in March. Later, he took a supermarket job. HIS PREVIOUS FIELD IN THIS ECONOMY: “Other services” – that’s the government name for the category of workers whose jobs are in hair and nail salons, fi tness centers, laundromats, dog groomers and repair shops – is down nearly 500,000 jobs this year. HIS VOTE? “I’m a Trump supporter.” Penley credits President Trump for the economy doing better before the pandemic. He’s not sure the president got everything right in the early days of the outbreak but doesn’t blame him for the impact to the country. HIS STORY: Penley was forced to move on. The personal trainer watched the ominous new coronavirus outbreak unfold on TVs at his former gym in Anderson Township in January and February. He quickly had a lot more time to watch television news as clients got too scared to come in to work out. “It started to get slow, then it was dead – a lot of people were worried about coming in and getting sick,” Penley said, recalling he was only handling about a quarter of his regular workload See FACES, Page 10A

Coldstream estate listed for $3M Randy Tucker Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

It’s a well-known fact that for many older Americans, the home is their single biggest asset, often accounting for more than 45% of their total net worth. And with interest rates near all-time lows while home values are still high, this combination creates the perfect dynamic for getting the most out of your built-up equity. But, many aren’t taking advantage of this unprecedented period. According to new statistics from
misconceptions. For example, a lot of people mistakenly believe the home must be paid off in full in order to qualify for a HECM loan, which is not the case. In fact, one key advantage of a HECM is that the proceeds will first be used to pay off any existing liens on the property, which frees up cash flow, a huge blessing for seniors living on a fixed income. Unfortunately, many senior homeowners who might be better off with a HECM loan don’t

Not only are people living longer than ever before, but there is also greater uncertainty in the ecomony. With home prices back up again, ignoring this “hidden wealth” may prove to be short sighted when looking for the best long-term outcome. All things considered, it’s not surprising that more than a million homeowners have already used a government-insured Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM) loan to turn their home equity into extra cash for retirement. It’s a fact: no monthly mortgage payments are required with a government-insured HECM loan; however the borrowers are still responsible for paying for the maintenance of their home, property taxes, homeowner’s insurance and, if required, their HOA fees. Today, HECM loans are simply an effective way for homeowners 62 and older to get the extra cash they need to enjoy retirement. Although today’s HECM loans have been improved to provide even greater financial protection for homeowners, there are still many
even bother to get more information because of rumors they’ve heard. In fact, a recent survey by American Advisors Group (AAG), the nation’s number one HECM lender, found that over 98% of their clients are satisfied with their loans. While these special loans are not for everyone, they can be a real lifesaver for senior homeowners - especially in times like these. The cash from a HECM loan can be used for almost any purpose. Other common uses include making home improvements, paying off medical bills or helping other family members. Some people simply need the extra cash for everyday expenses while others are now using it as a safety net for financial emergencies. If you’re a homeowner age 62 or older, you owe it to yourself to learn more so that you can make the best decision - for your financial future.

*Source: https://reversemortgagedaily.com/2019/12/17/senior-housing-wealth-reaches-record-high-of-7-19-trillion Reverse mortgage loan terms include occupying the home as your primary residence, maintaining the home, paying property taxes and homeowners insurance. Although these costs may be substantial, AAG does not establish an escrow account for these payments. However, a set-aside account can be set up for taxes and insurance, and in some cases may be required. Not all interest on a reverse mortgage is taxdeductible and to the extent that it is, such deduction is not available until the loan is partially or fully repaid. AAG charges an origination fee, mortgage insurance premium (where required by HUD), closing costs and servicing fees, rolled into the balance of the loan. AAG charges interest on the balance, which grows over time. When the last borrower or eligible non-borrowing spouse dies, sells the home, permanently moves out, or fails to comply with the loan terms, the loan becomes due and payable (and the property may become subject to foreclosure). When this happens, some or all of the equity in the property no longer belongs to the borrowers, who may need to sell the home or otherwise repay the loan balance.

VIEWPOINTS Portman’s fl ip-fl opping hurts the legitimacy of SCOTUS Walter Andrew Cole Guest Columnist
Your statement that President Trump’s Supreme Court nominee should get a vote was not surprising, Sen. Portman. I naively, for some reason, held onto the idea that you still might be a reasonable, conscientious man when it matters most. Now in this day and age, since I spoke out against the “ruling” party I might be labeled a “radical leftist, socialist, who hates my country.” I’m none of those. I am a very average, 31-year-old white dude with a smart wife and a dog. I am a patriot, and I love my country and believe in its ideals laid out by the framers (when applied to ALL equally). I am a proud Cincinnatian (and no, the city is not burning or being ransacked by “antifa”). As the postcards would suggest, it is a great city with a bright future. I digress. You and the rest of the GOP fl ip-fl oppers are the textbook example of why the American public is losing faith in our government, and why politicians are rated so poorly as a profession. Public service is a noble calling, and I hope one day we get people back in offi ce who care more about the country as a whole and do not operate selfi shly (cowardly) because of their fear of a radical primary opponent. Unlike in 2016 when you proudly stood behind on the glorious principle of “let the people decide,” this time around you will vote for a Supreme Court nominee with an election coming up within 40-some days. I read your “explanation,” and I literally laughed out loud. I vehemently disapproved of what Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell did (which you gallantly supported) in 2016, because he essentially began
court-packing with the real risk of SCOTUS losing its legitimacy. At the time, I was still a Republican and wrote to your offi ce encouraging you to support Merrick Garland because I was fearful of long-term consequences. Who can blame the current outrage? Before then, Supreme Court picks were always important, inherently political, but in the end, received overwhelming bipartisan support because that is how we’ve done it for hundreds of years. Precedent. There was a mutual understanding between the parties that that is how the system is supposed to work. Now, every SCOTUS nomination since then has been a partisan war. The third will be too. This further makes the SCOTUS seem like another partisan branch and cuts into its legitimacy. Since the 2016 rule has in fact happened, it is necessary the same standard should be applied in 2020. We are talking current history (emblazoned forever on social media) not something that happened a century ago out of the daily dialogue. I hope you also see the irony that even if Merrick Garland were put on the bench in 2016, President Trump still would have been able to select two associate justices. However, the damage to the court’s legitimacy would not be a topic of discussion. Amazing how that works when what is supposed to happen, happens. President Obama got two in his fi rst term, and trump two in his fi rst! But McConnell and Trump enjoy blowing our institutions apart with the blessing of their cowardly senators. I fear this will further infl ame our body politic. We need a return to compassion, calmness, decency and compromise. I voted for you twice, Sen. Portman, because I believed you were a principled and truly “moderate” rational person. I will passionately work, volunteer and donate for your replacement in 2022. Senator, you were better than this. Walter Andrew Cole lives in Oakley.

Fairy tale Disney World opportunity disappears
Continued from Page 4A
when he was laid off in March. After losing his job, Penley switched fi elds taking a job at Kroger’s Mt. Carmel pick-up only store, which fulfi lls online grocery shopping orders. He was one of the tens of thousands of new employees Kroger has added this year as consumers cut back eating out and cooked at home. So far, Penley likes the new job and recently interviewed for a supervisor position.
A safe, steady paycheck – until he caught COVID-19 WHO: Ken Batchelor, 65, Lawrenceburg JOB: Meat cutter at Kroger (recently retired) HOW WAS HE AFFECTED? He was making extra money until COVID-19 hospitalized him and left him with medical bills. HIS FIELD IN THIS ECONOMY: Grocery stores nationwide have added more than 60,000 jobs even as the broader retail sector shed nearly 500,000 jobs. HIS VOTE? “I don’t plan to vote. I’m not a big follower of politics – there’s nobody out there that you can trust.” HIS STORY: Batchelor, who was eyeing retirement after working 45 years at Kroger, never doubted the pandemic was a health risk. But he couldn’t quite believe the frenzy it caused. “I thought it was a little much – who’d think something like this would hit you so hard? This is America,” Batchelor said. Then he caught COVID-19 and spent three and a half weeks in the hospital and missed three months of work. While he was sick, funds at both Kroger and his union helped cover his most of medical bills. Months later, Batchelor said, he still doesn’t feel 100% better. Batchelor credits his daughter, Shanda, a nurse, who insisted on dragging him to the doctor when he was still convinced he had a stubborn cold or allergies. “She might have saved my life – they said I caught it early,” he said. “It still was no picnic.”
WHO: Ben Shipp, 26, Dry Ridge, Kentucky JOB: Former intern for guest services at Disney World’s Animal Kingdom HOW WAS HE AFFECTED? He was laid off in March. HIS FIELD IN THIS ECONOMY: Arts, entertainment and recreation have shed nearly 800,000 jobs since February and have been slower than the rest of the labor market to restore jobs. HIS VOTE? He plans to vote for Joe Biden. “Trump’s incapable of not playing politics to help people like me.” HIS STORY:Shipp thought his luck had turned around in 2020 when the University of Cincinnati grad landed a coveted internship at Animal Kingdom in Disney World after a tough job hunt. After just a few weeks on the job, his supervisors liked what they saw and were encouraging Shipp to apply for a permanent slot. He started eyeing corporate entry-level positions. He was also making lots of new friends and things seemed to be coming together. But in March, Disney World shut down, abruptly eliminating his position as the entertainment giant laid off thousands. Since then, Shipp has lived at his parents’ suburban Cincinnati home and has been doing some freelance photography work as he tries to fi gure out his next move. “I went from Neverland to being stuck in my parents’ basement,” Shipp said.
Flight attendant fears looming furloughs WHO: Jayme Johns, 23, moving back to Charlotte, North Carolina JOB: Flight attendant for PSA Airlines, an American Airlines regional carrier HOW WAS SHE AFFECTED? Schedule cutbacks kept her from securing a regular service route and she expects to lose her job. HER FIELD IN THIS ECONOMY: More than 100,000 jobs in air transportation have been lost this year – and it’s getting worse, not better. Major airlines are threatening massive cuts if Congress doesn’t provide further aid. The industry has already received a $25 billion bailout this year – on condition it didn’t lay off workers until after Sept. 30.
HER VOTE? “I’m very outspoken, but I don’t want that out there – I’m looking for work.” HER STORY:Johns is moving back to Charlotte, North Carolina, after spending a year in Ohio as a fl ight attendant for an American Airlines’ regional carrier. Her plan was to work her way through her early reserve status out of Dayton Airport until she could win a regular route from PSA Airlines’ base at Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport – until it was closed. She got stuck on reserve status after airlines cut service way back amid the COVID-19 travel meltdown. Major airlines are running fl ight schedules that are half what they were last year. American Airlines and Delta Air Lines warned they would implement massive furloughs if lawmakers in Washington didn’t provide further stimulus for the industry. “I’ve been living in uncertainty for the last six months and I can’t rely on that,” Johns said.
Hotels struggle to fi ll rooms WHO: Martin Pittman, 52, Pleasant Ridge JOB: General manager at The Summit hotel, Madisonville HOW WAS HE AFFECTED? The pandemic closed his hotel, forced layoff s and has left bookings at a fraction of normal. HIS FIELD IN THIS ECONOMY: The hotel industry has lost more than 725,000 jobs nationwide, and job recovery in the sector is way behind other sectors. Industry offi cials warn the sector could see a wave of bankruptcies without a bailout from Washington. HIS VOTE? Pittman defi nitely plans to vote in November. He also fi rmly declines to say for whom. HIS STORY: As the general manager of The Summit hotel, Pittman sometimes fi lls in behind the front desk or the kitchen, but this spring he’s also been forced to cut nearly 50 staff ers. Opened in 2018, to serve the region’s mix of business, international and tourist travelers, The Summit had a robust 2019 and won awards, including a fourdiamond rating by AAA and a Trip Advisor Travels Choice. The 239-room facility is one of more than a dozen new hotels or major renovations the region has seen in the past few years. Pittman said it was forecast to grow revenues by double digits this year.
After COVID-19 hit, the hotel completely closed down for more than two months ending in mid-July. Industry data shows national hotel occupancy has plummeted to less than 45% in 2020, while revenues have been cut in half. Hotel occupancy in Cincinnati averaged 28% in August. “This economy is crushing the industry – we’re running at about 30% occupancy now,” Pittman said, adding that Cincinnati hotels normally stay about 65% full on average.
After months off, back to work with less flexibility for her kids WHO: Kim Delaney, 41, Independence JOB: Auto rental worker at Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport HOW WAS SHE AFFECTED? Laid off in spring, she was recalled in September with a less fl exible schedule. HER FIELD IN THIS ECONOMY: Financial services, which is mostly banking and insurance jobs, has held up pretty well during the downturn. The exception within fi nancials are the leasing businesses for real estate and equipment rental businesses that have shed almost 160,000 jobs. HER VOTE? She thinks political views should be private. HER STORY: Delaney, a mother of four, is glad to be back at her job at a car rental business at the Cincinnati/ Northern Kentucky International Airport after nearly six months off the job. A few years ago, she lost 14 years of seniority when she switched to parttime for a more fl exible schedule to take care of her kids. But she still mostly worked full-time by fi lling in on shifts. Local offi cials estimate CVG airport contributed $6.8 billion to the local economy in 2018. Now that Delaney’s back, she’s lost her fl exible schedule – her current hours are a take-it-or-leave-it proposition. She may have to look for another job if things don’t improve. “I have to take it now – it’s all I have, but it’s hard,” she said.

Rita’s creamy Zuppa Toscana soup is a delicious taste of Italy Rita’s Zuppa Toscana Hot Italian sausage has hot red pepper and fennel. Fennel is a licorice flavored herb that gives Italian sausage its distinctive flavor. Use sweet Italian sausage and add red pepper flakes if you want. Or regular sausage with a little fennel added, along with red pepper. Use recipe as a guide. It’s one that’s hard to measure exactly. Go to taste, OK? Ingredients 1 pound hot Italian sausage 8 oz. bacon, diced (I used thick bacon) 1 large onion, diced (a good 2 cups) 1 heaping tablespoon garlic, minced (3 nice cloves) 1 bay leaf (optional but good) 7-8 cups low sodium chicken broth A good 2 pounds potatoes, 5 cups or so after peeling and dicing
Rita’s Zuppa Toscana soup features kale grown in her garden.
As much kale as you like (I used several handfuls chopped)

Cook sausage over medium heat, breaking it up with a potato masher, until done. Remove.
Rita Heikenfeld Guest columnist
A few weeks ago, my red/purple kale in the garden got buggy – holes in leaves from cabbage butterfl y caterpillars. I cut it way back and gave trimmings to the “girls”/chickens. That trim gave the kale a boost. It started sprouting new leaves pretty quick. Enough for an updated version of one of my family’s favorite soups using this nutritious green: like the muchloved Zuppa Toscana soup from Olive Garden. Now you can use any kind of kale in this recipe. If you don’t have kale, turnip greens work well, too. To me, they’re a bit stronger, so keep that in mind. For potatoes, red and Yukon Gold hold their shape pretty well. Idaho will be starchier and tend to break up which
In same pot, cook bacon, remove, but leave drippings. Cook onion, garlic and bay in the drippings until onions are fairly soft. Put onion in fi rst, then the garlic and bay. That way the garlic won’t burn. Add broth and potatoes. Bring to boil, lower to gentle boil and cook until potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.
Red/purple kale cooks up green.
Add sausage and bacon back along with kale. Cook a few minutes to wilt kale and bring flavors together.
makes them thicken the soup a bit more. Update Mississippi roast Readers had some questions. Here are answers: I don’t remove fat from the chuck roast. You can if you want. Leave it whole if it fi ts in the crockpot. Or cut up if necessary. Peppers are usually put in whole, not seeded, and after they cook, can be cut up, or removed depending upon taste. They can be sliced or chopped and seeded before cooking if you want.
Stir in cream and heat through. Adjust seasonings. Remove bay. Sprinkle with cheese. Secret ingredient to thicken soups: Dry mashed potato flakes! Really. This works with what I call “creamy” soups, like this. After soup is done, add some potato flakes. Not too much. Stir and see soup thicken up. Add more if necessary. Tips: No whipping cream? Use half & half or evaporated milk.

SPORTS GREATEST OF ALL TIME VOLLEYBALL PLAYERS
The cream of Cincinnati’s preps crop Alex Harrison Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
Whether it be Olympians, state champions, national champions, conference Players of the Year, National Players of the Year, Division I stars or Division III AllAmericans, Cincinnati’s high school volleyball has produced it all. Here’s an attempt to lock down the greatest Cincinnati has had to off er the volleyball world over the years.
Bryn Kehoe, St. Ursula Kehoe earned just about every accolade imaginable while at St. Ursula, including being the 2003 National Player of the Year, the Gatorade Ohio Player of the Year and the fi rst Andi Collins Award winner as a senior. St. Ursula won the state championship that year as well as in 2001 with a state runner-up in between. Kehoe was also a LaRosa’s Female Athlete of the Year, a two-time Southwest Ohio District Player of the Year, two-time GGCL Player of the Year, two-time All-Ohio pick, three-time All-GGCL selection and a three-time All-City pick. Kehoe headed to Stanford and had immediate success with the Cardinals. Stanford won the national championship in 2004, Kehoe’s freshman season, and was national runner-up in 2006 and 2007. In the national championship season, Kehoe was on the Pac-10 All-Freshman team and the NCAA Final Four All-Tournament team. Kehoe was an All-American pick three times, including a First-Team nod in 2007 when she led the nation in assists per game. A pro career in Europe also included a stint as an assistant coach for Alabama. Kehoe was inducted into the LaRosa’s Hall of Fame in 2004.
Rachael Adams, Mount Notre Dame Before she won a bronze medal in the 2016 Olympics, Adams was a state runner-up with the Mount Notre Dame Cougars. Adams graduated from Mount Notre Dame in 2007 as PrepVolleyball.com’s No. 3 overall recruit. Adams earned the ranking after being named an American Volleyball Coaches Association high school All-American in 2007. Adams was First-Team All-State that year and was a Third Team selection the season before.
Grace Maziar, Fenwick No high school player in the state of Ohio has offi cially assisted on more plays than Grace Maziar. Maziar had 881 assists as a freshman and ripped off three-straight seasons of 1,000 or more assists, ending her career with 4,004 assists.

Sam Fry, Ursuline Academy
honorable mention All-Pac-10.
Fry was an AVCA and PrepVolleyball.com All-American while helping Ursuline to playoff runs that included a state title in 2012. At the time of graduation, the three-time All-GGCL pick was the school’s leader in kills and blocks. Fry played college volleyball at Notre Dame and was a team captain in 2016 and 2017.
Carly Schneider, Mercy / Katie Smith, Lakota West
Jenna Hagglund, Lakota West After being selected for four All-Greater Miami Conference teams, three of which were First-Team picks, Hagglund earned conference and city Player of the Year honors in 2006 and a First-Team All-State selection. The AVCA selected Hagglund as a First-Team AllAmerican for her senior season. At Lakota West, Hagglund notched 2,259 assists, putting her on the OHSAA’s record book for assists in a career. Hagglund attended the University of Washington where she received Third-Team All-America honors in 2008 and 2009. As a freshman in 2007, Haglund was picked for the Pac-10 All-Freshman Team and was
While Schneider and Smith attend diff erent high schools, they were partners on the sand. In the summer of 2016, Schneider and Smith won the AAU National Championship and also the USA Beach Volleyball National Championship. The duo was named honorable mention All-Americans by the AVCA in 2015 and were fi rst-team selections in 2016.
Emily Sullivan, Seton At Seton, Sullivan played in the state semifi nals in 2004 before leading the Saints back to the state tournament again in 2005 when they won the school’s sixth state title. Sullivan’s performance against Wooster in the 2005 state semifi nals was a record-breaker. Sullivan set the Division I state tournament records with 20 kills in a three-set match and a .760 hitting percentage. She was then named First Team All-City. See VOLLEYBALL, Page 2B
Five storylines from early OHSAA tournaments GGCL has best of the rest in DI tennis
Alex Harrison
Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
Editor’s note: Information included refl ects this article’s original publication date – Oct. 12. Visit Cincinnati.com for possible updates. What may have seemed impossible just a few months ago came to be in Ohio: fall sports tournaments began. Golf and girls tennis got underway and are making their ways to the state tournament. Here are some storylines from the early tournament rounds.
Mason tennis leads Cincinnati’s pack Coach Mike Reid’s team again found itself dominating the brackets. In the Division I singles bracket for districts, Mason has three players, Shyla Aggarwal, Anna Tonkal and Rashi Loni, represented. The three Comets took the top three spots in the Mason sectional to advance to districts. Princeton’s Brooklyn Bowen took the fi nal spot from that sectional. In the doubles side of the tournament, Mason scored two doubles team in districts, again by taking the top two spots of their sectional. The teams of Raina
Elizabeth Pendergast of St. Ursula. GEOFF BLANKENSHIP/FOR THE ENQUIRER
Chada and Annie Kruse and Risha Chada and Harshita Uppuganti made the cut to districts. Chada and Kruse were third-place fi nishers in last year’s state tournament.
Greater Cincinnati schools don’t just stop at Mason in tennis contention. Princeton, Walnut Hills, Springboro, St. Ursula, Wilmington, Ursuline Academy, Sycamore and Oak Hills have tennis athletes who were recently still alive as well. St. Ursula has three players in singles, including Elizabeth Pendergast who advanced to last year’s state tournament, and Ursuline Academy had both of its doubles squads make the districts. The doubles combo of Nina Dhaliwal and Bridget Estes advanced to the quarterfi nals in last year’s state meet. Springboro, who had last season’s state champ in singles, has a singles and a doubles competitor. Claire Burns of Wilmington advanced through to districts after winning the Centerville sectional.
Division II, too Girls tennis has two divisions and it was in Division II that Greater Cincinnati had a tennis champion in a doubles team from Indian Hill. See STORYLINES, Page 2B

Volleyball Continued from Page 1B
Danielle Meyer, Mount Notre Dame When the Ohio State Buckeyes play volleyball, they play under the AllAmerican banner of Danielle Meyer. In Meyer’s tenure at Ohio State, she earned three All-Big Ten selections and was an ESPN The Magazine Academic All-America pick.
Missy Harpenau, Mercy When Missy Harpenau had 27 kills to down Mount Notre Dame for the 2007 state championship, it capped off a senior season that also saw an AVCA AllAmerican pick as well as the PrepVolleyball.com National Player of the Year selection and Ohio Gatorade Player of the Year. Harpenau was the GGCL Player of the Year as a senior with All-City and All-State nods as well.
Ali Thompson, Ursuline Academy As a senior in the 2017 season, Thompson was an All-American, a First-Team All-GGCL, city and state pick while adding Player of the Year awards from the GGCL, the city and the district. Going 28-1 with a state championship for Ursuline didn’t hurt either. As a junior, Thompson picked up another league Player of the Year as well as FirstTeam All-GGCL, city and state teams again.
Emily Withers, Roger Bacon After back-to-back state runner-up fi nishes in 1999 and 2000, Withers fi nally helped get Roger Bacon over the hump in 2001 when the Spartans were a nearly fl awless 29-1.
Katie Veatch, Roger Bacon Veatch was All-Everything as a senior in 2005 while helping Roger Bacon to its second-consecutive state championship. Veatch also was awarded the Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky Women’s Athlete of the Year for 2005-2006. At Kent State, Veatch contributed immediately and was on the All-MAC Freshman Team in 2006 after assisting on a team-high 1,176 plays. .
Sara Bachus, Seton Bachus led Seton to a state championship as a junior in 1996 and back to the state tournament again as a senior in 1997. Bachus followed her prep career with a career at Xavier where she was inducted into the school’s hall of fame in 2008.
Betsy Owens, Seton Owens was the Women’s Sports Foundation Sports Girl of the Year in 1994, two years before she helped Seton to a 1996 state championship.

Shadia Haddad, St. Ursula Haddad was Cincinnati’s fi rst player to win the Gatorade Ohio Player of the Year when she won for the 1997-1998 school year. St. Ursula won the state championship in all four years Haddad was in high school. Haddad attended the University of Illinois and in her senior season was the Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year and a First-Team All-Big Ten pick in 2001.
Jeni Case, Seton / Logan Case, Ursuline Academy Before Jeni Case became a National Coach of the Year at Ursuline Academy, she was a player at Seton where she helped the Saints to state supremacy during their powerhouse-run in the 1980s. A member of the Seton Athletic Hall of Fame, Case was also inducted into the Thomas More Athletic Hall of Fame in 2002.

After more than 400 wins, four state titles and a state runner-up as Ursuline’s head coach, Case stepped down following the 2019 season, but not before coaching her daughter, Logan.

COMMUNITY NEWS Stepping Stones’ fi rst virtual event nets more than $242K Stepping Stones hosted its annual Bloom Gala virtually on Sept. 12. The fi rst event of its kind for the organization, Stepping Stones netted more than $242,000 to benefi t year-round programming for children, teens and adults with disabilities. Allie Martin from WCPO’s Cincy Lifestyle hosted this year’s virtual event: Bloom, Boots and Bourbon. The event featured a special appearance by Chef Cristian Pietoso of Via Vite as well as a featured drink courtesy of Comfort Station & Sundry and Vice. Attendees raised money for the organization by participating in a silent auction with over 50 packages and by purchasing gardening kits for program participants. Several Stepping Stones supporters hosted “Mini Blooms” where they watched the virtual event from home with friends and family. “Stepping Stones is an organization that perseveres in times of hardship,” said Elizabeth Rogers (Indian Hill), Bloom host. “After the pandemic started, the Stepping Stones development team worked to transition Bloom into a virtual event and I was impressed with how smoothly the event went. We will continue our support, and hope to see everyone back in person next year.” The event’s presenting sponsor was Huntington Bank. Diamond sponsors were Susie & Neil Bortz, the Chemed Foundation and the Pettengill Family. Gold sponsors were Beth & Doug Brendamour of Brendamour Warehousing. Stepping Stones is a United Way partner agency serving more than 1,100 people with disabilities in day and overnight programs that increase independence and promote inclusion. Founded in 1963, the agency provides educational, recreational and social programs at locations in Batavia, Indian Hill, Norwood and Western Hills.

Northeast Cincinnati Rotary Club celebrates 30th anniversary On Sept. 6, 1990, 32 community leaders in the Blue Ash – Montgomery area established a new Rotary Club to make a diff erence in the lives of youth, families, and individuals both locally and internationally. Thirty years later, the Club is celebrating its heritage and accomplishments through stories from charter members and a proclamation from the City of Montgomery. Montgomery Mayor Chris Dobrozsi recognized the club’s ongoing participation in many city projects including Beautifi cation Day, Bastille Day, Independence Day Parade, Arts Festival and the annual July 3 Concert. According to Dobrozsi, “Rotary has made a signifi cant impact on the lives of our citizens and has clearly enriched the City of Montgomery and surrounding area.” The Club has given thousands of dictionaries to 3rd graders and aided the development of young people through its Student of the Month program, 4-Way Speech Contest, Youth Leadership Academy, Camp Enterprise, and scholarships for students attending Cincinnati State and Great Oaks. Its annual banquet recognizes outstanding community businesses, educators, and individuals for their work and contributions to our local communities. This past year the Club generously supported Operation Give Back, the Princeton Closet, the Freedoms Foundation, and New Life Furniture. The Club also supports Rotary International’s commitment to eradicating polio through the Polio Plus program. It also helped build a new community center for the poverty-stricken Village of Los Flores in Nicaragua and provided clean water devices to people in Haiti and Puerto Vallarta. This year scholarships were provided to students in Mexico in order to earn high school, college, and professional degrees. Club members donate thousands of working hours each year to support organizations such as Matthew 25 Ministries and Crayons to Computers. Club President Robert Miller said, “I am proud of our Club’s rich history and service to the local community. While our club has given hundreds of thousands to those in need in our area, I am even more pleased with the hands-on work of our members over the past 30 years. Our club has truly embraced the Rotary motto “Service Above Self.” Club meetings are held at noon on Tuesdays at Receptions Event Center in Loveland. Guests are wel-

Grant’s Farm and Greenhouses are picking corn, gords and other items Howdy folks, Do you have any stinkbugs trying to get in your house? I have and they are plentiful. I have killed several and there are more. Does that mean we are going to have a bad winter? I hope not, but the Farmer’s Almanac says we are going to have cold weather and lots of snow. As I tell people when they ask me what kind of winter we are going to have, I always say come back in the spring and I will tell you. I was out riding the scooter this morning going to Frisch’s for my noon meal. They are accustomed to me coming there on the scooter. They are so friendly and so helpful. After I ate, I roamed around the town a little while. This is a beautiful day. I am writing part of this on Wednesday. The farmers will be combining their soybeans soon. I don’t think that I ever have seen the beans ripen as fast as they are this year. I talked to Danny Grant and asked if Jason had cut any beans yet. He said no, but he is shelling corn in the Batavia bottoms. I had the opportunity to go down to Poochie’s for lunch with Dan. He picked me up and on the way down, I saw three fi elds of soybeans that had been combined. Danny said the corn was running about 165 bushels per acre. His son thinks in a couple more days his beans will be ready to cut. On Friday, I met with Paula, her sister Dona and her friend Mike for lunch. It was special to have a meal with these folks. Later while I was riding the sidewalks, a combine went through town and a pick-up truck followed pulling the header. Then a big John Deere tractor pulling a big trailer to catch the soybeans in. Talked to Grant’s Farm and Green-

house and they are picking Indian corn, gords and other items. Danny said he picked some sweet corn and it was good. His son, Jason started on soybeans today. They thought they were pretty good. I saw a big trailer come through Bethel yesterday loaded with soybeans. The ladies taking care of the fl owers at the church are doing a super job. The fl owers sure look beautiful. The Halloween decorations here in Bethel are sure beautiful. The folks spent a bunch of money. I talked to Cedar Lake and the lady said on Tuesday there was a 67-pound blue cat fi sh caught and today a 43 pound catfi sh, and they keep stocking channel catfi sh. Cedar is open every day but Wednesday. I talk to Sherry’s Lake and they will be closed on Sundays starting Oct. 11, and closed each Sunday until next year. The fellar said the fi shing was a little slow but they are catching lots of channel catfi sh. Gary is getting better slowly. This Sunday morning, we met at the church. I went up there and the preacher opened the doors for me to come in. It was wonderful. That was the fi rst time I had been in the church building for a service since February. The sermon was great. I get to see several folks I don’t see unless I go to church. They had the seats marked off , so they are safe. The folks seemed to really enjoy the fi rst time back in the church. There were a bunch of cars in the parking lot listening on the radio to the preacher. After church, I ate a couple sandwiches that Bill Sweeney had brought to me, and watched the Bengals game. They weren’t doing very good. Then I cranked up the scooter and went for a ride. The Shepherds Place was open, giving out free clothing, canned goods and diff erent items. I always stop to see the lady that runs the Shepherd’s Place. This lady does a wonderful job of keeping it open for the school kids when they are off school for the day.

Gary Larson, of Edmonds, Wash., is a retired comedian. He spent the last 15 years of his career entertaining on cruise ships, where crosswords were a way to pass the time between shows. One day a clue-and-answer combination in a New York Times crossword cracked him up, and he thought, Why don’t I try making one of these? I love writing jokes. How hard can it be to fit them into a puzzle? He found out. This is his 592nd puzzle. It’s his fourth in The Times. — W.S.

Drinking a lot of beer at home? How to pick the perfect glass Matt Koesters Special to Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
There’s really no wrong way to drink a beer. It’s pretty simple: Lift a container of beer to your mouth, tilt it toward you and imbibe the liquid that fl ows from the container into your mouth. And if you’re the kind of person that enjoys just drinking beer out of the can or bottle, that’s totally fi ne. You do you. However, if you want to maximize your enjoyment of a beer, proper glassware really enhances the experience. It makes the beer-drinking experience one that indulges all of the senses. You can see the beer’s color, head and carbonation, as well as the lacing left behind after taking a sip. You can hear the fi zzy hiss of carbonation. Your ability to enjoy the nose – the beer’s odor – is amplifi ed. The glass adds to the tactile facet of the experience, while the shape of the glass itself can augment the fl avor of the beer it holds. Sadly, COVID-19 has caused most local breweries and many restaurants to forego serving their wares in glasses. If you buy a draft beer, there’s a strong chance it will be served in a plastic cup as a precautionary measure against the spread of the coronavirus. But that simply isn’t applicable in the comfort of one’s own home.
What glasses go with which beers? Beer glasses come in all kinds of shapes and sizes, and some styles of beer are associated with specifi c types of glassware. Certain styles of beer are traditionally served in glasses that bear the same name as the style. A pilsner, for example, is served in a pilsner glass, while wheat beers – such as hefeweizens and dunkelweizens, are served in weizen glasses. Both of these tapered glasses are taller and more cylindrical than most other types. But wheat beers and pilsners would both be just fi ne served out of the com-

mon American shaker pint glass, ie. the type of pint glass used in most bars. Why? Because the shaker pint shares similar qualities with the weizen and pilsner glasses: they’re tapered, cylindrical and can accommodate thickheaded beers. Stronger dark beers, on the other hand, should be served in a glass that is rounded and, ideally, wider on the bottom than the mouth of the glass. Snifters are the go-to glass for these types of beer, but goblets, chalices and tulip glasses all work, too. Why? It all boils down to two things: temperature and aroma. If a beer is at its best when it’s cold, a tubular glass increases the container’s surface area and serves to prevent your body temperature from warming its contents. Stouts, on the other hand, generally benefi t from warming while being enjoyed because of their complexity, and therefore benefi t from a snifter’s decreased surface area. They “open up” over time, causing diff erent aspects of the beer’s fl avor to become more pronounced, and the glass strengthens the beer’s nose by virtue of its tapered mouth. Put simply, the same principles that apply to wine glassware are at work with beer. Chilled white wines are
served in taller, narrower glasses, while red wines are served in wider glasses. And yes, that means that if you don’t have any snifters or anything similar, a red wine glass is a fi ne way to enjoy a strong dark beer. You don’t need to have the perfect glassware for every style of beer. If you just remember to account for temperature and aroma, your glassware will enhance your beer-drinking experience.
Speaking of glassware The Ohio Craft Brewers Association has announced that Ohio Pint Day will be observed on Tuesday, Oct. 27. More than 100 member breweries across the state will have the limited edition glasses on sale, and $1 from each purchase will support the OCBA. The artwork on this year’s pint glass depicts Ohio’s state bird, the cardinal, as a phoenix. “The phoenix is a powerful creature that represents transformation and rebirth,” said artist Adam Hernandez. “This year, 2020 has brought to light many ugly issues that we need to address and change as a nation. I believe that these changes can start in our personal lives. My goal is that when the

community sees the Cardinal Phoenix they will be challenged to look inward and see how they too can be transformed.” This year’s pint glass takes the shape of a 16-ounce can, representing the changes many breweries were forced to make to keep their businesses afl oat in the midst of the pandemic.

SCHOOL NEWS Health center an icebreaker for CNE campus Wayne Johnson compared the process to a “glacier moving.” Clermont Northeastern School District’s assistant superintendent was standing inside the lobby of the new Mercy Health Center on CNE’s campus before the offi cial dedication Sept. 18, as visitors got their fi rst look inside what had formerly been CNE High School’s home economics wing. The school district and Mercy Health dedicated the new community/student health center as offi cials gathered at the facility under blue skies and a bright, sometimes blinding, sun. Appropriately, chairs were set up six feet apart and students handed out masks with the Mercy Health and CNE logos. Johnson was one of three CNE administrators, along with Dean of Students T.J. Dorsey and district nurse Lori Diekmann, responsible for bringing the facility to campus. Now, CNE’s almost 1,400 students, as well as faculty, staff and members of the community at large, can get health care in their neighborhood. CNE encompasses 78 square miles, from the just east of I-275 at Milford Parkway to the village of Marathon to the east, and from the fl ag pole at the old Ford plant in Batavia to the south to Route 727, near Stonelick Lake, and according to Johnson and others, there are no general health providers, until now. “The closest thing is Clermont Mercy Hospital, and people here - or they go to the Little Clinic or whatever this just provides another place for people to go and keep close, and for kids in the district, if they need shots, if they have a temperature or whatever, we can send them here to be looked at by a nurse practitioner,” Johnson said. Mercy Health – Clermont Hospital President Shane Knisley and CNE Superintendent Michael Brandt reiterated that point when they talked to the crowd.

“People don’t have access to convenient care. This is really going to fi ll a need and I’m sure as that need will continue to grow, we will build off the services that we start here,” Knisley said. The health center has separate, secured entrances for members of the public and school personnel. Hours are 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday. Appointments are not required.

SCHOOL NEWS UC Clermont offers head start for psychology student For Lydia Byrd, passion for mental health is a family aff air – her mother has worked as a psychiatric nurse for more than 15 years. “I grew up learning about the brain and diff erent mental illnesses,” Byrd said. “I have known I wanted to be a psychologist since I was 15 years old. The way the brain works and learning what motivates other people’s behavior fascinates me.” When it came time for the Milford, Ohio resident to choose a college, she not only wanted to begin her educational journey into psychology on the right foot; Byrd also wanted to save money, and immediately felt at ease in the small classes and close-knit community at UC Clermont College in nearby Batavia. Once on campus, Byrd wasted no time. By spring of her freshman year, she had secured an internship at the Marjorie P. Lee Retirement Community near Hyde Park. There she helped run an art therapy group for patients with dementia, encouraging the residents to express themselves through art projects. “The internship encouraged me to believe in myself and to listen to what others have to say, even non-verbally,” Byrd said. “I learned a lot from the resident I worked with.” UC Clermont Psychology Professor Meera Rastogi has specialized experience in using art therapy to help patients with mental health conditions and organized the internship for Byrd after having her in class. “Lydia learned about Alzheimer’s disease and worked with a resident one-on-one,” Rastogi said. “It was incredible to watch Lydia grow her patience and non-verbal communication skills throughout the semester.” Following the internship, Byrd worked on a research presentation with two other students about an app that was created to reduce anxiety levels among users, looking at whether such apps are successful at decreasing anxiety. The app was given to a group of college students who played the game for a certain period of time whenever they were feeling anxious; the group found anxiety levels among users reduced after playing. The students, with Rastogi’s guidance, presented the research at the 2019 American Psychological Association Annual Convention in Chicago. “Lydia helped to integrate research on mental health digital apps and communicated about the research to psychologists from around the world,” Rastogi said. “I saw her confi dence in her own potential bloom. I am so proud of her and look forward to the future contributions she will make to the profession.” Byrd says Rastogi’s support, like her experience at the conference, was priceless. “Professor Rastogi has been an incredible mentor to me throughout my college career,” Byrd said. “She truly loves what she does and makes sure her students feel safe in her classroom.” After two years as a psychology major at UC Cler-

mont, Byrd transferred to the University of Cincinnati’s Uptown Campus and plans to complete her bachelor’s degree in 2022. She has aims to eventually earn her doctorate and has a particular interest in forensic psychology. Byrd says thanks to the early training and experiences she had at UC Clermont, she feels ready for her next steps. “I loved the smaller classes because it allowed me to
get to know my peers and professors. It was great to have a community in the classroom that off ered help when I needed it. The teachers cared about my wellbeing and whether I understood the class material,” said Byrd. “I learned a lot about myself and my future career, and the psychology program only furthered my love for the fi eld.” Amanda Chalifoux, UC Clermont College
