Ivy Tech Community College’s Bloomington campus is hosting a lecture featuring financial expert Pete “The Planner” Dunn on Tuesday, April 21 from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. in the Hoosier Times Student Commons at the Connie and Steve Ferguson Academic Building located at 200 Daniels Way on the west side.
“This is a timely and relevant lecture since college students are becoming more financially savvy,” said Amanda Fronek, Ivy Tech director of student life and support services. “We hope that students and guests of the lecture learn about the importance of fiscal responsibility and to come away with some practical tips that can create a path toward financial wellness.”
The presentation, “60 Minutes to Change with Pete the Planner,” will cover important financial literacy topics including: budgeting, addressing money in a relationship, saving for the future, and paying-down debt.
Dunn is an award-winning comedian, author, radio show host (The Pete the Planner Show), and columnist for the Indianapolis Star. Dunn appears regularly on popular programs, such as CNN Headline News, Fox News, Fox Business, and many nationally-syndicated radio programs.
There is no cost to attend. For additional questions about the event, please contact Amanda Fronek at afronek@ivytech.edu.
