After closing the central administrative offices for the School of Continuing Studies at IU Bloomington in June, the IUS General Studies Program remains on campus despite the discontinuation of Non-credit Programs. The decision was made by an advisory board of deans after Indiana University allowed the eight regional campuses to continue some form of the programs. Gilbert Atnip, former vice chancellor of Academic Affairs, said the closure was a money-saving measure.

Annette Wyandotte, interim vice chancellor of Academic Affairs, has accepted the position of associate vice chancellor of Academic Affairs. The approval will be made by the IU Board of Trustees. Because the decision has not been confirmed yet, Wyandotte said she did not want to be interviewed. However, Gilbert Atnip, vice chancellor of Academic Affairs, said Wyandotte has reached all the requirements for this job.

After settling her lawsuit against Indiana University for age discrimination, Annette Wyandotte, associate professor of English and former dean of the School of Arts and Letters, will continue to work at IU Southeast. In April 2010, Wyandotte was told she could no longer keep her position as dean because of an IU rule forcing administrative positions to retire at 65. In Wyandotte’s academic review, the School of Arts and Letters voted in favor of her continuing her position as dean.
