Oregon Insurance Commissioner Andrew Stolfi and Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum will host a statewide virtual wildfire insurance town hall on Thursday, April 29, at noon.
Cleanup is progressing, and the arrival of spring means construction will soon be ramping up for people affected by the Labor Day wildfires.
Stolfi and Rosenblum will be joined by Oregon State University Fire Program Manager Carrie Berger and representatives from the Division of Financial Regulation to discuss insurance claims during the rebuilding process, how to avoid construction scams, and tips to prepare for the 2021 wildfire season.
Daniels taps Chiang, Bertoline for strategic leadership roles
Note to journalists: Journalists visiting campus should follow visitor health guidelines.
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. Purdue President Mitch Daniels on Friday (April 23) announced two senior leadership appointments as the university continues to position itself to achieve strategic initiatives, advance in Purdue’s core areas of strength and respond to national and international need.
“Having carefully selected targets for Purdue’s major new investments, it’s equally important that we put our best people on the job leading those initiatives and producing results,” Daniels said. We don’t have finer or more proven leaders than these two, both great scholars with records of action to match.”
