Should we go back to a world without wheels?

🎱 Signs point to no... but the question is worth asking. Design choices are constantly shaping the way we live — often in ways that we don't notice day-to-day!

The latest season of THE STATE OF INQUIRY investigates design through the lens of sustainability. In this episode, host Yaël Ksander brings together architect and sustainability expert Chris Reinhart and multidisciplinary designer Max Fertik for a conversation about materials and design at every scale.

First Thursdays are back!

The line between an artist and an entrepreneur is thinner than it looks. IU Creates is built for the people who live on both sides of it.

We will be at First Thursdays this week, tabling at the Fine Arts Plaza. Come find us. Tell us what you are creating. We will tell you about the community, the space and the people who help IU artists carry a project further.

🐞 Thursday, September 3.
🌷 4 to 7 PM.
🍄 Fine Arts Plaza.

Hosted by @iuahcouncil

IU Creates is a launchpad for artists and innovators at IU. It offers a cohort of fellow artists, 24/7 access to a co-working space at Von Lee, weekly artist meetups, workshops, micro-grants and a semester showcase to present your projects to the larger community.

Is THIS the famous "Voice of the Hoosiers"? 🤩

Almost, but not quite. 😉

For more than half a century, Don Fischer has narrated the triumphs, heartbreaks, and defining moments of Indiana University athletics. And this week, we're grateful to share that story with help of our friend Ken Beckley.

📺 Premiering on WTIU this Friday at 6:30pm
📲 Available on YouTube beginning Saturday (Aug 29)

Ken Beckley has dedicated his career to journalism and public relations, and was inducted into the Indiana Broadcast Pioneers Hall of Fame in 2011. Thank you, Ken, for once again sharing your excellence with Indiana!
