Braun takes swipe at IU, students on DEI cuts, planting season | Indiana Newsdesk

Coming up on  Indiana Newsdesk:

After gaining total control of IU’s nine Board of Trustee appointments, Governor Mike Braun takes a swipe at the university. Alumni leaders sent a letter to Braun questioning the take-over.

With diversity, equity and inclusion programs being cut at the state and federal levels, students of color are worried about what the future holds. Indiana University has reorganized its DEI offices under the Student Life Office.

And its planting season in Indiana and farmers are dealing with spring storms and economic uncertainties.
