  • 1 Spring 2014 Diversity in the Academic Leadership Of
    SPRING 2014 DIVERSITY IN THE ACADEMIC LEADERSHIP OF BIG TEN & CIC UNIVERSITIES A Project of Women LeadersCount1 The Institute for Women’s Leadership Consortium is committed to increasing the numbers of women in decision-making and leadership positions across all sectors and professions. Our series of Women’s Leadership Fact Sheets is designed to increase awareness of women’s current underrepresentation and progress. This fact sheet explores diversity within the academic leadership of Big Ten universities. Data are current as of April 1, 2014. The Big Ten Conference, previously the Western and Big Nine Conferences, is the oldest Division I collegiate athletic conference in the United States. Presently it has fourteen member institutions, a majority of which are flagship research universities in their respective states and are academically high-ranking, with relatively large student enrollments. Big Ten universities are primarily located in the Midwest. The Committee on Institutional Cooperation (CIC) is an academic consortium of fifteen universities that are members of the Big Ten Conference, with the exception of the University of Chicago which is a former member of the Big Ten. The CIC leverages faculty, funding, facilities, investments, and ideas to help the collective collaborate, compete, and succeed.

    The Origins of President Bryan’s Medical School Walter J. Duly” ~ The nineteenth century was a period of rapid advancement in medical science. American physicians responded by striving to improve the practice of medicine and the education of future generations of practitioners. In Indiana as elsewhere, the need to adopt higher stan- dards of medical education was widely recognized. How to do it was another matter, one that pitted university officers and medical prac- titioners against each other in a contest that would determine whether medical education in the state would continue to be owned and con- trolled by independent physicians or would fall under the purview of universities. And, if university educators, which of the state’s two major institutions of higher education, both of which were vying for the honor, Indiana or Purdue, would prevail? The contest was settled in 1908 with the absorption of several institutions into the Indiana University system, an outcome that was made possible by the influ- ence of a strong current of reform, locally and nationally, as well as by the vision and determination of such key leaders as Indiana Uni- versity President William Lowe Bryan and physiciadeducator Alli- son Maxwell. The Indiana territorial legislature had authorized a medical department for the new college in Vincennes in 1807. That depart- ment never developed. The state’s first medical school, established in New Albany in 1833, seems to have been little more than a diplo- ma mill. In the decades that followed, twenty-four medical

  • How a Scandal Helped Change IU Forever PLUS IU's Most Influential Presidents & Honoring the Contributions Minorities & Women Have Made to the University
    IU BICENTENNIAL SPECIAL How a Scandal Helped Change IU Forever PLUS IU's Most Influential Presidents & Honoring the Contributions Minorities & Women Have Made to the University By Carmen Siering Founded on January 20, 1820, as the State Seminary, Indiana University has grown from a one-building institution of learning—where a dozen young men were taught the classics by a single professor, Baynard Rush Hall—to a world-class research institution with more than 94,000 students and more than 21,000 faculty and staff on campuses in Bloomington and across the state. The bicentennial was being discussed as early as 2007—the year Michael A. McRobbie became president. But planning for this one-time-only celebration of the university’s first 200 years kicked into high gear in 2015. That’s the year James Capshew was hired as the official university historian, and the Office of the Bicentennial, directed by Kelly Kish, began focusing on a myriad of Bloomington-based and statewide projects to coincide with the anniversary. A website, magazine, blogs, podcasts, videos, oral histories—a true multiplicity of media representations—are An 1836 drawing of the First College Building, located at Seminary Square, published all being utilized to disseminate the gathered research.

  • Indiana University Standards for Safeguarding Institutional Governance of Intercollegiate Athletics
    Indiana University Standards for Safeguarding Institutional Governance of Intercollegiate Athletics Bloomington Campus August 13, 2015 Indiana University Standards for Safeguarding Institutional Governance of Intercollegiate Athletics Basic Principles Indiana University is committed to governing its intercollegiate athletic programs with integrity. The Indiana University Department of Intercollegiate Athletics (“Athletics”) aims to positively impact lives and change the world by following the tenets of the Spirit of Indiana: 24 Sports, One Team (Appendix 1). This philosophy is further manifested through the Indiana University Student-Athlete Bill of Rights (“Bill of Rights”, Appendix 2), which was the first such commitment to be made in all of intercollegiate athletics. The university’s engagement in intercollegiate athletics is an integral part of the educational mission of the university. Accordingly, athletic governance is consistent with, and not independent from, the governance applicable to other university units and programs. Organizational Governance Standards 1. Authority of the President Indiana University’s President, subject to the general oversight of the Board of Trustees, and working within the constructs of the principles of shared governance held by each Big Ten Conference member institution, has ultimate authority, responsibility, and accountability for the administration of intercollegiate athletics. 2. Authority of the Director of Athletics The President has delegated authority, responsibility, and accountability for the administration of Athletics to the Director of Athletics. 3. Authority of the Faculty Athletics Representative (“FAR”) The Faculty Athletics Representative, appointed by the President, is the voice of the faculty in the governance of intercollegiate athletics at Indiana University and ensures that the academic mission of the university is upheld.
