Indiana defers higher education payments
After three years of deferring payments to state universities, Indiana owes nearly $100 million for higher education.
Kevin Green, director of state relations for Purdue’s Office of Governmental Relations, said the state makes 12 monthly payments to universities every year; however, in 2002, Indiana rolled over June’s payment to the next fiscal year due to budget difficulties. As of 2004, the state has still not paid, and as state appropriations increase each year, so does the payment to universities.
Green said Indiana deferred $95 million in appropriated funds for state universities in 2002, which has grown to $99 million as of 2004. In 2002, $26.8 million of the $95 million belonged to Purdue, and as of 2004 it has grown to $27.2 million.

Purdue crew leads area outreach event, sponsors support local 7K Hunger Hike
Purdue crew members walked their boats through town Sunday to raise money for the hungry.
"The boats are pretty heavy, so it was good exercise," said John Johnson, a freshman in the College of Engineering and a member of Purdue crew.
He, among others, braved the 80-degree weather to walk seven kilometers to make a difference. The Hunger Hike was presented by Bison Financial Group and involved the Lafayette Urban Ministry, Food Finders Food Bank and St. Tom’s Haiti Mission. Members of the Purdue Student Union Board volunteered at the event.
