Powering the lifelong success of students across Indiana University

At Indiana University, our commitment to student success is front and center.

From ensuring that we offer students affordable access to a high-value college education to creating purposeful academic experiences, we’re strengthening initiatives and programs that shape student development and empowering students to reach their full potential.  

Recently, I joined IU’s inaugural Vice President for Student Success Julie Payne-Kirchmeier, IU Bloomington Vice Provost for Student Life Lamar Hylton, and IUPUI Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs Eric Weldy to talk about several of the innovative strategies and initiatives IU has undertaken to enhance student success across all of our campuses. 

As part of our conversation, which I invite you to view, we discussed our collective vision for student success outlined in the ambitious goals of the IU 2030 strategic plan. We also highlighted several new initiatives, including the expansion of mentoring programs, and enhanced academic advising and health and wellness services.  

Our goal is nothing short of ensuring that IU is a place known for equipping every student to thrive—as students and throughout their career.
