Meet fellow alumni and connect with IU through the Chicago Chapter of the IU Alumni Association—your local IU family.

A great way to get involved is to attend one of our upcoming events. We aim for variety. You could, for instance, cheer on IU at a game-watch, take part in one of our social networking and professional-enrichment events, join a book club, or lend a hand at one of our service projects.
