Today:  The chair of the search committee, IUK Chancellor Susan Sciame-Giesceke, is on "Regionally Speaking" to explain the process of seeking applicants for the impending vacancy in the Indiana University Northwest chancellor's office, and about the four finalists for the position.  They all will come to the Gary campus to meet with students, faculty, staff and community members (one is already on campus for his visit)  Chancellor William Lowe is stepping down effective July 31st and intends to return to teaching.  We talk with IUN staffers Nico Casas and Cindy Szmanski about today's screening of the biopic "Eva A-7063" in the Savannah Center on this International Holocaust Remembrance Day. INVestEd's Bill Wozniak joins us from Indianapolis to talk about the non-profit, its mission and of a new statewide study focused on student loans, their impact on the state economy and how employers and communities are helping those who are becoming part of the Indiana workforce of the 21st Century.  And Carl Lisek with South Shore Clean Cities talks about next month's Annual Sustainable Transportation Conference and Expo in Michigan City.
