As we have all learned, the more Indiana Republicans “fix” education, the worse the outcomes. Wait until they insist on new job tracks for the careers of 40 years ago.
I hear his plan is to add degrees in coal mining and shower/toilet hydraulics.
Insistence on a major in warehousing logistics will make sure Indiana has lots of folks who can either work in warehouses OR drive trucks just in time for robots to replace both.
“ Once we get through this budget forecast — that forced us to do some things that you maybe wouldn’t have done otherwise — I’ll put the resources back where we’re getting the best results.”
Yeah Republicans claimed that in 2008 too. Never happened then either.

Dems do such a great job at education.
How about the graduation rate for kids entering IPS? Under 20%?
They are also successful on roads, crime, housing, homelessness etc.
#HogsettProud
Although he does have input, Hogsett does not control IPS. The Indiana legislature controls the purse strings for education and hasn’t been shy about meddling in Indy’s business. Why haven’t they fixed this?
Bernard, Republicans have been in charge for two decades and things are getting worse. Time to stop blaming Democrats.
Republicans still can’t offer Indianapolis a better answer than looking for a rich guy who wants to waltz in to run for the job for his ego. Little wonder they get smashed every four years in the mayoral race.
Roads in Marion County are the fault of Marion county Republicans who sit on their hands every session and let gas taxes paid by their constituents … get spent on state highways in places where no one wants to live.
Even my Republican CCC rep tells me not to blame Joe Hogsett.
Having clauses out of context with the legislation subject mater has been normalized by the Super Stupid Super Sneaky Majority Party .
It’s funny how all call for change, then can’t handle the change that doesn’t agree with their status quo views.
Mitch was able to elevate Purdue to one of the most highly respected universities in the nation through financial discipline and no-nonsense leadership. Whitten and the new board can begin doing the same, but they have a much longer climb because of the liberal morass that is IU. However, I can’t understand why anyone would object to students engaging in a little jew-hatred and violence between classes to help them cope with the strain of their coursework.
Mitch also shut off Purdue to a lot of Indiana students and kept tuition frozen by taking in lots of out of state and international students, to the point where the Legislature had to step in and insist that they take all students who completed the necessary degree prerequisites and applied to the school.
So, yeah, perhaps Purdue has a higher profile and didn’t raise tuition. But they may have gotten there at a long term cost to the state of Indiana, as we may no longer have the workforce with skills needed to attract high tech employers. Example – Intel went to Ohio.
Indiana has had to resort to trying to compete via the LEAP district which … has been contentious, to say the least.
What does this mean?
“However, I can’t understand why anyone would object to students engaging in a little jew-hatred and violence between classes to help them cope with the strain of their coursework.”
Wake up IU alumni. You cannot be trusted by the Governor and State Legislators to vote on trustees at your alma mater. I hope, though, that you will be competent enough to vote on state legislators in 2026, they too need sprucing up.
Joe B, your conspiracy theories are up there with Deep State pizza parlors using O positive in the sauce.
You recently compared career politicians to “career physicians”. I realize you are in good company here at IBJ, but you might want to sit out any education conversation
No thanks, class is in session. Time for you to be the student.
Go look at the mix of students at Purdue the past 30 years. Purdue was taking over half of their students from out of state and overseas for most of Mitch’s tenure as President. I tend to think that’s a big mistake, since Hoosier students are the ones most likely to stay in Indiana and become the type of folks that employers need for their workforce.
You know where every out of state student I knew at Purdue went when they graduated? Back home, out of state, to be employed.
You know where the local Indiana kids like me went? Back home again in Indiana.
If state colleges like IU and Purdue are going to take large amounts of taxpayer dollars, they need to produce for taxpayers. They can do that by taking every qualified Indiana HS grad that shows up on their campus and turning them into the graduates that this state needs to compete. What Daniels did at Purdue didn’t help with that, and what Braun is doing to IU isn’t helping with that either.
Regarding career physicians, go read that thread again and get back to me. You’re welcome to think a guy like Mike Braun is better for Hoosiers than Eric Holcomb, or someone like Diego Morales is better than Holli Sullivan. But I think history will prove you wrong.
