WGLT's Sound Ideas 02/24/20

There is a nice, but unintended consequence from Governor Pritzker's big funding release for the Illinois Innovation Network. ISU's Associate Vice President for Research and Graduate Studies John Baur [bower] also talks about a new ISU maker space. Plus, the winners of Illinois State University's three minute thesis competition tell you about their research...in ways you will find fun and interesting. Project Guardian focuses on gun crimes. It calls for closer coordination between federal prosecutors and their state, local, and federal partners. The U.S. Attorney for Central Illinois updates you on the effort. And the creators of a new art installation at Heartland Community College hope to spark conversations about the border wall.
