In 1967, the arrangement was expanded to include Purdue and Ball State universities and the extension became the Eastern Indiana Center of Earlham College. In 1969, reflecting the community’s response to this opportunity to take state university courses at home, Richmond citizens formed an association known as Eastern Indiana Community College, Inc., to raise funds for the construction of a new campus. Following a successful campaign in which they raised over $1 million, members of the community col- lege organization, with the consent of the four education institutions involved in the center, requested Indiana University to establish a regional campus in Richmond to assume responsibility for the operation. The Indiana General Assembly approved this plan, and on July 1, 1971, the East- ern Indiana Center for Earlham College became Indiana University East, the sixth campus in the Indiana University regional system.

  • OHIO COLLEGE INITIATIVE to Enhance Student Wellness
    OHIO COLLEGE INITIATIVE to enhance student wellness Prevention Action Alliance (PAA) created the Ohio College Initiative in 1996 when leaders from 19 campuses and various state officials united to address the issue of underage drinking on college and university campuses. From its beginning, the Ohio College Initiative formed campus-community coalitions who worked to change the alcohol-related culture surrounding college campuses. In fact, OCI was the first statewide initiative to utilize the environmental management approach to tackle such an issue nationally. To change campus culture, campuses would alter the physical, social, economic, and legal environments (including informal rules in the form of customs, traditions and norms) in order to influence the decisions that students make about alcohol use. Since those beginnings in 1996, the initiative has grown to include 54 member institutions ranging from two and four-year campuses, public and private schools, large and small, rural and urban colleges and universities. Now, OCI’s purview extends beyond alcohol-specific concerns to address all mental, emotional, and behavioral health impacts students may experience. PAA continues to provide technical assistance, training services, and networking opportunities, including meetings, consultations, web- based resource development, linkages with state and national organizations, and effective communications strategies between all partners and supporting organizations. Additionally, Prevention Action Alliance collects and reports data gathered from member institutions. College and university presidents are asked to make a commitment to OCI and to appoint a designated liaison. Those individuals actively engage in the initiative, participate in meetings and trainings, conduct/update campus needs assessments, form/sustain campus/community coalitions, implement one or more of the five environmental strategies, and become familiar with and strategically uses tenants of research-driven and evidence-based environmental prevention.
