Pauley is an Indianapolis native who hosted the Today Show and Dateline NBC.

She will be joined by Purdue economics professor David Hummels, who is also a member of the Obama-Biden Economic Advisory Group, and other local officials.

The round table discussion is set for this morning at 10:30 in Stewart Center Room 310.

The public is invited to attend the forum, but a College Democrats spokesperson says the room will not hold a large crowd.
