    V23, N15 Tuesday, Nov. 28, 2017 HPI Analysis: Rokita’s Senate edge While no one has GOP race locked up, Rokita is closer than many might think By MARK SOUDER FORT WAYNE – Obviously, Congressman Todd Rokita has not locked up the Republican nomination for Senate yet, but he is closer than most think. It is no surprise that Rokita has a significant early lead. He has twice run and won statewide for secretary of state, as well as serving as a congressman.

Washington Street Indianapolis, Indiana 46204 The Honorable Andy Zay Indiana State Senate 200 W. Washington Street Indianapolis, IN 46204 RE: University policies on COVID-19 vaccination Dear Representative Mayfield and Senator Zay: You both have requested an opinion concerning whether the recently announced policies by Purdue University and Indiana University to require proof of a COVID-19 vaccination is violative of Ind. Code ch. 16-39-11, as added by HEA 1405 (2021), prohibiting the necessity of an immunization passport. BRIEF ANSWER Public universities, or “state educational institutions”, through their boards of trustees, are bodies corporate and politic. They are legislatively created and receive their corporate powers through legislation. Numerous cases have also held public universities to be “arms of the state.” Ind. Code ch. 16-39-11 provides no statutory exemption for universities, so as public universities are part of “the state”, it applies to them. HEA1405 only prohibits public universities from requiring proof of the COVID-19 vaccine; it does not prohibit them from requiring the vaccination itself. In its current form, Purdue University’s policy does not appear to violate HEA1405. Based on the information available, it seems Purdue will require vaccination only for certain optional activities, which is nothing new; limitations – although not COVID-19 vaccination – for certain groups have been a requirement since the onset of the pandemic (e.g., quarantine for college and professional athletic teams throughout 2020).

Daniels, Jr. Dear Students, Thank you for taking an interest in your state government. On the following pages, you will learn how your government functions, discover more about the people who lead our great state, and see the symbols that represent us. But, I would like to share with you an idea that won’t be defined in this booklet - your role as an inspiration to this government. When I first decided to run for Governor, I spoke of the need for change in our state to make it a better place for our children. After I placed my hand on the Bible and took the oath office to become your Governor, I asked Hoosiers across the state to keep in mind that our children were watching and depending upon us to make Indiana a better place to call home. Lawmakers heard this call and acted to create more jobs, improve our schools, and protect the children who need it most. We are holding up our end of the bargain. Now I have a request of you. Indiana needs you to be ready. The work you are doing today in school is as important as my work today as Governor. Our state is counting on you to study hard, continue your education beyond college, and graduate ready to play your role in our society.
