Websites
Most IUAA chapters have websites which promote their various activities and programs. Obviously, it's a great way to advertise the chapter itself, upcoming events and activities, scholarship opportunities, or anything related to IU!
Chapter websites vary from city-to-city, but most carry a similar look and feel. The IU Alumni Association creates and manages most alumni chapter websites. For samples of outstanding chapter websites, click here.
How Do I Create a Chapter Website through IUAA?
It's easy! Simply contact your chapter director to get the process started, and visit other chapter websites to generate additional ideas for your chapter's website. The chapters staff can advise you regarding what is important to include, and what is permissible. After you contact the staff, you will need to write material for various sections of the website and submit those to the Chapters Online Request Center. Most chapter websites include some or all of the following sections:
- Homepage
- About the Chapter or Chapter Mission
- Officers or Advisory Board
- Calendar of Events
- Membership
- Chapter Activities or Chapter News
- Photo Album
- Hot Links
- Chapter Sponsors
- Chapter Newsletters

How Do I Update a Chapter Website?
Each time a chapter wishes to update or create a chapter website, they simply submit changes, text, or photos to the Chapters Online Request Center. It's easy! Simply select your chapter's name from the pull-down menu, and submit your updates or other information to be posted on the website. From there, your updates will be made by our staff and posted to your site. Once your website update is submitted to the Request Center, IUAA can typically make the change within 3-5 business days.
