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

Op-ed: You shouldn’t have to leave home for great health care

For many years, an assumption in communities such as ours was that if you need truly advanced health care, you had to leave town to find it. Bigger cities meant better care. Specialized treatment meant long drives, unfamiliar hospitals, and time away from family and work. Thankfully, that’s changing. Today, Greater Lafayette and similar communities are seeing more investment in what health-care leaders often call “world-class care.” While that phrase can sometimes sound like marketing language, the reality behind it matters deeply for patients, families and the future of regional health care in Indiana. At its core, world-class care means people can access high-quality, specialized health care closer to home. It means having physicians connected to the latest research, coordinated teams focused on complex conditions, and health-care systems willing to invest in innovation — not only in large metropolitan areas, but in regional and rural communities as well. One important piece of that approach is the development of health-care “institutes.” In a hospital setting, an institute is not simply another department. Institutes are designed to bring together teams of specialists, nurses, technology, rehabilitation experts and support services around a specific area of care such as cancer, cardiovascular health or orthopedics.
