About IUAA
Over 254,000 IU alumni live in Indiana. More than 50 percent of Indiana's physicians, 64 percent of optometrists, 35 percent of teachers, 75 percent of lawyers, 40 percent of nurses, and 90 percent of dentists are IU graduates.
Each graduate, former student, current student, and friend of IU has a lifelong connection to Indiana University. At the IU Alumni Association, we help forge these connections into ongoing, engaging relationships with IU.

Mission and Goals
In 1998–99 a Visioning Task Force of IUAA staff and volunteers met to study the issues facing the Alumni Association and develop recommendations to guide the IUAA for the next five years. One of these recommendations was to convene another task force five years later. This Strategic Directions Task Force 2005–10 offered its recommendations in mid-2005, and many have already been enacted.
