Today: Factory jobs in Indiana are not returning to the numbers of years past. Ball State University Professor Michael Hicks joins us to talk about his column on this very topic and one thing is for sure… he urges us to get real and face the facts. The Department of Veterans Affairs is rolling out a new program to ensure all veterans have access to comprehensive and affordable life insurance. The top executive will join us with the details. But up first, Tami Silverman with the Indiana Youth Institute joins us to discuss her latest column on youth suicide prevention. All of that and more on this edition of Regionally Speaking
