Trustees discuss construction, academic policies on campuses

The IU Board of Trustees met Thursday in Alumni Hall.

Nine trustees were present while trustee Derica Rice was absent.

The meeting was called to order at 9:30 a.m. with the facilities committee presenting first.
The committee discussed a review of current projects on all of IU’s campuses as well as design and project approval for construction on the IU-Purdue University Indianapolis, IU-South Bend and IU-Bloomington campuses.

After an hour and a half break for lunch and the executive session, the academic affairs and university policies committee asked for approval of 11 new and reworded degrees on the IU-Kokomo campus and one degree on the IU-Purdue University Columbus campus.

No business was voted on; everything that was approved Thursday will be voted on Friday.
