Indiana University

Indiana's state government founded Indiana University in 1820 as the State Seminary, and officially changed the name to Indiana University in 1838.

Herman B Wells, the university's long-standing president (1938–62) and chancellor (1962–2000), is credited for elevating the university's stature in research, the arts, and international studies. Indiana University is now known around the world as one of the leading public research universities in the United States. IU continues to grow and make history every year.
