When the General Assembly changed the designation of our university from Indiana Seminary to Indiana College in 1828, it envisioned an education “in the American, learned, and foreign languages, the useful arts, sciences, and literature, to be known by the name and style of the Indiana College.” Our department has lived at the center of this promise and of a curriculum that is as vital for Indiana today as it was when it was founded 140 years ago.
Despite hurricane Helene, Hoosiers old and current have successfully gathered at a tropical-themed fusion restaurant in Atlanta, Georgia during this year’s GSA. As someone who attended a small college and even smaller high school, this reunion of people who occupied the same place at different points in time was quite exciting.
