IU Celebrate Excellence of Achievement in Academics, Arts and Athletics

An Autumn Salute

Ceremonies

For nearly 190 years, IU has saluted academic achievement and marked milestones with ceremonies that are rich in pageantry and tradition. We continue that tradition in fall 2009 with the celebration of the Indiana Memorial Union Centennial, the naming ceremony for the Michael Maurer School of Law, and the dedication of new research and teaching facilities at IU Bloomington and at the IU School of Medicine at IUPUI and IPFW, among many other events.
