Book Indiana University and the World

Download or read book Indiana University and the World written by Patrick O'Meara and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2019-07-30 with total page 683 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of a Midwestern university’s extensive engagement with nations and people around the globe, in words and pictures. Indiana University’s administration, faculty, and staff believe that an international reach is a central part of the teaching and research identity of a great university. From “summer tramps” led by faculty in the later 1800s, to providing support to a struggling German higher education system devastated by World War II, to partnering with Kenyan medical institutions and collaborating with Ukrainian parliamentarians, IU has participated in a diverse range of international opportunities. What connects these seemingly disparate efforts is their reciprocal nature. IU’s international activities have benefited countless individuals while also providing opportunities for the intellectual development of faculty and students. This commitment to international engagement continues into Indiana University’s third century, with the launch of Gateway offices in economically and culturally dynamic parts of the world such as China, India, Germany, and Mexico. This book takes a journey around the world with Indiana University, from Pakistan to Poland to Palestine, and shares stories of lives changed.

  • Author : Dr. James Lachlan MacLeod
  • Publisher : Arcadia Publishing
  • Release : 2023-10-09
  • ISBN : 1439679452
  • Pages : 194 pages

Download or read book Lost Evansville written by Dr. James Lachlan MacLeod and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2023-10-09 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Wabash and Erie Canal to the Faultless Caster Factory, Evansville has seen much of its history disappear. In the early twentieth century, vestiges of old Evansville like the B'nai Israel temple and Coal Mine Hill gave way to a modern city. Numerous changes in the thirty years following World War II altered the physical appearance of the city, including the removal of the old Central High School, Assumption Cathedral, Gear Town, and more. Less physical but nevertheless vital history like the struggle over Civil Rights in Evansville has been overlooked and, until now, lost. Weaving together a captivating fast-paced account illustrated with over eighty images, award-winning Evansville historian Dr James MacLeod tells the fascinating story of what was lost, what came in its place, and what was preserved against the odds.
