Have some theater time on an upcoming business trip to New York? Here are three shows from the current season Broadway season. “Hair,” the self-proclaimed “American Tribal Love-Rock Musical,” is back on Broadway some 40 years after its taketheater-by-storm original production. And I’m very pleased to report that the musical groundbreaker’s latest incarnation isn’t a […]
It could get expensive. Ohio-based Franklin University’s decision to open a campus in Castleton sets up the potential for significant name confusion with Franklin College, the liberal arts school 30 minutes south of Indianapolis. One marketing expert predicts both schools will be forced to pump up their advertising budgets to make sure their audiences understand […]
Mary Hansen considered going into teaching when she was in college. Now, two decades later-with retirement savings shrunk and kids’ college on the horizon-the Carmel resident is doing it. Michelle Skinner wanted to go to graduate school after earning her degree at Butler University. But she put that off to do something “worthwhile”-teach high school […]
Binkley’s Drug Store occupied the corner of Kessler and College from 1928 to the early 1970s. Its namesake now occupying the same spot, Binkley’s Kitchen & Bar (5902 N. College Ave., 722-8888), seems equally built to last-a friendly neighborhood joint that glances back without wallowing in nostalgia and stays progressive without being trendy. Twice before […]
Overtures Gov. Mitch Daniels has extended to the General Assembly should be sufficient to end squabbling over the budget. Legislators ought to take the offer, pass a budget, and leave the Statehouse before they throw any more sand in the gears. Public schools would get a 2-percent increase in funding and higher education would receive […]

The congressional committee opened its hearings with this question: Who killed the American auto industry? A long line of people waited to answer. “I did,” said the consumer who continued to buy from the Big Three, “by accepting an inferior product out of loyalty to the flag, by assuming that poor quality was the best […]
The mayor of Westfield says the city’s rapid growth and small staff are to blame for a series of accounting problems raised in a State Board of Accounts audit of the Hamilton County community. Among the problems: The town collected various service fees not authorized by local ordinances; paid $1,184 in late fees and finance […]
Could the Virginia Avenue corridor eventually challenge Mass Ave as the hip place to live downtown? A local architecture firm hopes to make a strong case with an artsthemed development on the site of a former mail-sorting facility in Fletcher Place. The $9 million project called Fletcher Place Arts would include 56 mostly one-bedroom apartments, […]
Last fall’s Wall Street meltdown, which erased half the value of some 401(k) retirement plans, has whipped up some of the fiercest crosswinds the plans have faced in their three decades of existence. Blowing from one direction, cash-strapped employers are trying to cut back on retirement plan contributions. Others are looking to shut down their […]
The familiar face of a local Hispanic television newscast is back on the air, less than six months after the parent of WISH-TV Channel 8 pulled the plug on him. But perhaps even more impressive than the speedy return is the array of loyal advertisers, including one of the city’s largest public companies, that stuck […]

Most of us wouldn’t drop what we’re doing to show our friends a form letter that included our names in the salutation. A personalized video, on the other hand, might make an impression. That’s what Butler University found out in a recent fund-raising experiment. The Indianapolis liberal arts college e-mailed a video to 20,000 potential […]
