AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Education Policy: Indiana’s new bell-to-bell cellphone ban takes effect July 1, expanding restrictions to cover the entire school day (including lunch and passing periods) for public and charter schools. College Sports & Gambling: The Brendan Sorsby eligibility saga is effectively over for Texas Tech: he’s set to enter the NFL supplemental draft after a judge’s injunction, while the NCAA and Big 12 keep fighting over who can sanction the school. State Courts & Law: Pennsylvania’s Supreme Court ruled “skill games” are slot machines, clearing the way for regulation and taxation—an issue that could resonate with Indiana’s own gambling policy debates. Public Safety: Two people were arrested on drug charges after a Marshall County traffic stop triggered a K-9 alert and a search. Indiana Politics & Governance: A letter argues Indiana township trustees have too much discretion and raises questions about conflicts and spending in Grant Township. National/World: A plane crash near Butler, Missouri killed 12 skydivers and the pilot; investigators are expected to arrive for a full probe.
