## Opinion text

STATON, Judge,
dissenting.
I do not agree that the Indiana Legislature narrowed the seope of the Open Door Law by the use of the word "directly." Riggin v. Board of Trustees of Ball State Univ. (1986), Ind.App., 489 N.E.2d 616 still applies to the *440 appeal at hand. If the Open Door Law is to be amended to fit the shoes of this appeal, it will take more than the word "directly" to accomplish the task. The statute will need a complete overhaul of its intent and purpose.
