@IUSouthBend is hopping today. There are (distanced) events across campus, including the last bash for the @IUbicentennial. I'll be sharing some stories at the new Northside Hall Historical Marker. No screen outside, so here are some images of the building thru time. #IU200 /1
@IUSouthBend Classes were held from the 1910s to the 1950s at schools and the YMCA in South Bend and Elkhart. But the number of students was outgrowing the space. A plan was made to build the campus north of the St. Joe River. (1958 architectural drawing.) #IU200 /2 
Groundbreaking for the 1st academic building at @IUSouthBend took place in 1959, featuring @IndianaUniv Chancellor Herman Wells. #IU200 /3

All campuses of @IndianaUniv, including @IUSouthBend, planned to celebrate 200 years of impact in the state and worldwide. Events included packing the @SBCubs stadium with alumni (@IUAA), a bus with @IUArtifacts sent on the road, & talks at the museum and elsewhere. #PATC5 /2
I got @IUBicentennial $ to hold a campus dig in 2018, training students in research design, excavation techniques. The public astopped by to talk to the students & share stories. This was pre-COVID 19 - we were very close to each other & everything was “high touch.”
