United Together: Montgomery County Leadership Academy

Editor’s Note: This is the ninth installment in a series of articles focused on the partner agencies and programs that are served by the United Way in Montgomery County. In an increasingly digital world, it has become more accessible than ever for working adults to pick up new skills that will not only advance their career, but also potentially develop meaningful connections. In the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, tasks that were typically done in the office can now be done in the comfort of a couch thanks to remote and hybrid opportunities. Technology imbued with artificial intelligence (AI) software can now complete an hour-long project in mere seconds. However, something that technology can’t replace is the ability to take leadership.

Tippecanoe health officials voice concern for measles cases across Indiana

LAFAYETTE, IN — Rising measles cases in Indiana are causing Tippecanoe County health officials to sound the alarm on preventive vaccines before the holidays. At least 104 cases of the virus have been reported in Indiana as of Nov. 2, according to the Indiana Department of Health. Tippecanoe County Health Officer Seema Kengeri said no cases have been found in Tippecanoe County, but upcoming holiday travel could change that. "Most of the cases for measles are coming from northeastern part of Indiana, LaGrange County, Adams County, and all of those because it's bordering Ohio, and we are we are seeing a lot of that transfer over," Kengeri said. "So we are focusing also on trying to get other people vaccinated to improve the herd immunity." Measles symptoms include runny nose, cough, tiredness or sleepiness, loss of appetite, fever, spots in the mouth that look like grains of salt, and pinkeye, the IDOH said. Near the fourth day of illness, fevers commonly spike as a blotchy, red rash appears on the face and hairline, spreading outward to the rest of the body. Cases reported to the IDOH range between ages 0 and 64, with the bulk of cases ranging from 15

Final Tippecanoe Co. tallies confirm Democratic effect on local races

LAFAYETTE, IN — Democrats claimed five contested seats in a shocking sweep a Purdue political scientist says is a sign that President Donald Trump's decisions met opposition at the local voting booth. Long before the last ballots were tallied Wednesday afternoon, Republican favorites for Tippecanoe County office were coming to terms with resounding defeats. A total of 45,072 people cast their ballots in Tippecanoe County, more than a third on Election Day. At 38.3% of registered voters, it’s a sharp uptick from the 2022 midterms, which saw only 32.1% turn out. “The local level is a sort of general reflection of national trends,” said James McCann, interim head of Purdue’s Department of Political Science. Affordability was the word, he said, pointing to the cost hikes associated with tariffs and immigration policies. “Middle-class voters are really feeling more pinched,” he said. “(The president’s) decisions had a direct impact on everyday life,” and preliminary data suggest affected voters turned out in force to sweep Republicans off the table. Contested Tippecanoe County races Democrat Andrea Burniske beat longtime public servant Julie Roush to become Tippecanoe County’s District 1 commissioner . Roush, a Republican, is closing out her term-limited eight years as county clerk.

Special meeting with secret agenda bringing a vote for Purdue University president?

WEST LAFAYETTE — Purdue's trustees have announced a special meeting for Thursday afternoon that is unusual in its timing and lack of an agenda, prompting speculation that they might be poised to name a permanent successor to former President Mung Chiang. The board of trustees typically meets on Friday mornings, after a Thursday executive session. But the board's emailed announcement Tuesday for this week's "special meeting" at 3:30 p.m. Thursday in Room 326 of Stewart Center says only that "an agenda will be provided at the meeting." Purdue spokesman Trevor Peters did not confirm or deny the topic will be a vote and announcement about Chiang's replacement. "It will be newsworthy and a media availability will follow," he said. The first home regular-season basketball game of the season is scheduled for Friday night, and it is homecoming for Purdue Football on Saturday in Ross Ade — possibly good timing to introduce a new leader to Purdue faithful. Chiang, Purdue's 13th president, became the president of Northwestern University as of July 1, when former President Mitch Daniels took the reins temporarily. At the time, Daniels said one of his top priorities was to vacate the interim position "as fast as I
