Featured on our online panel: Dr. Keeanna Warren, associate executive director, PPHS Network; Dr. Gary Bertoline, senior vice president, Purdue University; former Indiana state Rep. Mary Ann Sullivan; The 74 Senior Reporter Jo Napolitano; and Purdue Polytechnic junior Raina Maiga. PPI’s Taylor Maag will moderate. Please join us at 2 p.m. Eastern.
