Whitten rebuked: IU faculty vote no confidence in Whitten, Shrivastav, Docherty
"Faculty unrest has been brewing for years, beginning with a controversial presidential search process in 2020 and culminating this semester with the suspension of professor Abdulkader Sinno, the cancelation of Palestinian painter Samia Halaby’s exhibition and a dispute regarding compliance with a new Indiana law barring funds for the Kinsey Institute."

The NCAC’s letter to Whitten also went unacknowledged, Larison said, and she’s heard that IU is not changing its position.
“This is deeply disappointing to us,” Larison said. “It's very foreboding that this is something that other public universities might consider or be emboldened to do as well.”

Getting very excited to meet and learn from Prof. @KimTallBear when she comes to speak about #Indigenous#STS at Indiana University South Bend later this week.
#IndianaUniversity trustees are going to vote on "an amendment to President Whitten’s employment agreement" this week. Do you suppose she's going to give back some of her salary to support grad student workers?
