IC begins spring callouts

IU’s Independent Council will have its spring callout meeting today at 7 p.m. in the Walnut Room of the Indiana Memorial Union to bring together non-greek women.

The main goal of IC is to unite independent students and give them a way to get involved on campus, according to its website.

IC also has its own philanthropy, which is voted upon by members and changes each year.

This spring, IC will focus on Shriners Hospitals for Children, a not-for-profit that helps children around the country get free medical care.

Melissa Feeser, vice president of IC, said she hopes non-greek women will see IC as an exciting opportunity to get involved.

“We created Independent Council to be a great way to meet non-greek women on campus,” said Feeser. “We’re offering outlets for girls to meet each other, make friends and participate in things they wouldn’t be able to otherwise.”

IC holds weekly meetings in the IMU and one to two events each month for their philanthropy and to build relationships between members.
