Word of Purdue's incoming president draws a range of reactions

Students, alums and community leaders across campus share thoughts on and for Jay B. Silveria Boilermakers and community members have a rainbow of requests for Purdue’s new president, announced Nov. 5 . Top of mind? Tech investment, the tuition freeze and freedom of speech. All faculty and staff members the Journal & Courier spoke to were reluctant to comment on the record, citing lack of preparation or fear of consequences from the university. But Stephanie Masta, a professor in Purdue’s School of Interdisciplinary Studies, collected likes from both faculty and students under her critique of the board’s selection, which she posted on X and Linkedin . “Purdue University selects a non-academic president with little to no experience in academic research, who has no PhD, no connections to Indiana, and has only been at his current position for under 2 years. What a joke. “Selected boards make terrible choices. This is what happens when trustees want to work in the dark — the people with the most expertise are ignored.” The ability to share such opinions mattered to Malika Ansari, 22, who said the political environment is a concern for her: “I would want free speech to be prioritized.” Alejandro Morales

Rossville volleyball comes up short in first state championship game

INDIANAPOLIS — Throughout the 2026 postseason, Rossville volleyball defied the odds all the way to the state championship. But on Saturday, Nov. 7 in Gainbridge Fieldhouse, its dreams at chasing more history came to an end. Indianapolis Lutheran defeated the Hornets in a 3-0 sweep (25-19, 25-11, 25-21), earning its first Class 1A state title in school history. A season that brought Rossville its first semi-state win and state championship appearance has felt like a movie for coach Lexi Ellenwood. A noted fan of “Hoosiers,” her team fit the bill of a small-town school that battled from a rough start and put it together in the end. It didn’t result in a storybook ending like the film with a state title, but it doesn’t take away from how memorable of a year it’s been. More: Benton Central volleyball captures IHSAA Class 2A state title “The maturity that I’ve seen from them as high school girls has just been really impressive,” Ellenwood said. “The way they’ve been able to trust the team, trust the coaches, buy into what we're telling them and give their all … it’s just special, for sure.” After a 6-0 run in the middle of the first
