Last spring, Dale Brown, secondary education senior and president of the Student Alumni Association, and Matt Owen, political science senior, met to discuss new tradition ideas to implement for the 70th anniversary of IU Southeast. Brown, Owen and fellow members of the SAA came up with the tradition of burying a time capsule on campus. “We thought a time capsule would be a great tradition for the campus because it is a collaboration and a larger connectivity for the organizations and university departments,” Brown said. “It’s a great way for student alumni to look back and see the university from the past.”

The Gamer Society, a student organization at IU Southeast, is a group of students or individuals who share similar interests in gaming. The Gamer Society began in fall 2011 with a total of six members. However, their current membership has increased to 35. Megan Schultz, president of the Gamer Society, said she is looking forward to gaining more interested gamers.
