Seems pretty positive to me.

One man's pork is another's meat and potatoes.

Oh and our republican governor was against it but is getting all he can for Indiana, along with all the others.

Not saying that those things are not needed but shouldnt the tution fees charge to the students cover these costs? I am not againt the money being spent BUT I am against the use of tax payer dollars being used for a pay school.( whether a private K-12 or a university)
