Health Care Law Reaction and President David Maxwell of Drake University

The U.S. Supreme Court has upheld the health care mandate proposed by President Obama. Today on "River to River", we hear what Iowans have to say about the decision. We also speak with political science professor, Dennis Goldford, on how the ruling may affect Iowa voters. Later in the program, Drake University President David Maxwell joins us as part of our summer series of conversations with Iowa university and college presidents. We’ll talk about what private universities can do to be attractive and affordable during a challenging economy. Also, Des Moines making a bid to host the 2016 U.S. Track and Field Olympic trials? – we’ll get David Maxwell’s take.
