At least 48 bachelor degree programs at Purdue at risk of elimination under new Indiana law
                Majors at risk of elimination under the new Indiana Law include Farm & Ranch Management, American & U.S. Studies and Nutritional Sciences.
            
        
    
    
            "The [IN] state legislature has demonstrated for years its total lack of supportβ¦for higher education in the state," Stephanie Masta, an associate professor in the College of Education in Purdue University said. 48 bachelor's degree programs are at risk of being eliminated or consolidated.

                Legal professionals weigh in on what charges could result from anti-Trump rally incident
                After an altercation became physical at an anti-Trump rally on Saturday in Lafayette, what potential charges could be seen? Law experts say it's complicated.
            
        
    
    
            So many questions linger around what charges could be brought about following an altercation at a rally in Lafayette over the weekend. But to put it simply, pursuing charges could prove to be complicated for the Tippecanoe County Prosecutor's Office.

                Pride Lafayette calls on Indiana AG Todd Rokita to apologize following April Fools' post
                Pride Lafayette Inc. Executive Director Derrick Jones calls the post "disrespectful, unbecoming, and beneath the office of Attorney General."
            
        
    
    
            After Indiana AG Todd Rokita made a social media post for April Fools' Day that used a photoshopped image of the Progress Pride Flag, Pride Lafayette is asking for a formal apology.

                TSC's Sue Scott honored with Indiana School Communicator of the Year award
                After over a decade in her role as Tippecanoe School Corp.'s spokesperson, Sue Scott has been honored as Indiana's School Communicator of the Year.
            
        
    
    
            TSC's Sue Scott is probably one of the best I have ever encountered in public communications. It seems fitting to see her awarded the honor of Indiana School Communicator of the Year.

                'Spending Time': Is Small Business Saturday still an effective holiday in Greater Lafayette?
                In a post-COVID-19 world where much big-store shopping has moved online, small businesses in Lafayette continue to embrace Small Business Saturday.
            
        
    
    
            In a post COVID-19 pandemic world, Black Friday is no longer a day of throwing elbows for a Tickle Me Elmo. Black Friday is nearly completely virtual now.
So where does that leave Small Business Saturday?
