People of Indiana University

What makes Indiana University one of the best institutions for higher education in the world? After spending a few months pondering on this questions, I realized that it is a multitude of things. From having some of the most immersive and intentional educational curriculums to a strong and involved learning experience outside the classroom, who was behind the University's success?
The people. Countless students, faculty, alumni, administrators, and employees work every single day to help Indiana University reach greater heights. This book celebrates the stories of some of these exceptional leaders that have made Indiana University the homeland of the Hoosiers.
The People of IU: A collection of inspiring Hoosier stories is the culmination of four years of sharing the narratives of 130 such individuals that have positively impacted the University. What makes this project even more unique, is that this entire concept was created by a student and these stories were compiled solely by a student team. The People of IU book honors some of the amazing human beings and aims to inspire the next generation of Hoosiers to continue our powerful journey as one IU family, onwards!
