The Women Creating Excellence exhibit committee used a two-fold approach to identify women for inclusion in this exhibit. Nominations were solicited from the IU Indianapolis community and research was conducted to identify influential IU Indianapolis women, past and present. A list of names was compiled and the committee made final selections utilizing the following criteria:
• Women who have significantly affected IU Indianapolis policies
• Women who impacted the mission/vision of IU Indianapolis
• Women who developed, sustained, or significantly impacted a department, unit, school, or major at IU Indianapolis
• Women who led an IU Indianapolis school, department, or unit in an executive leadership capacity
• Women who led efforts to bring about major changes at IU Indianapolis
IU Indianapolis has been positively impacted by countless women faculty, staff, students, donors, and community members. The list of women included in this exhibit is by no means comprehensive and should be viewed as a work in progress. If you know of an influential woman who is not listed in the table of contents, please nominate them for inclusion in the next phase of this project.
We are not accepting nominations at this time, please check back later.
