The IUS intramural sports teams meet every Sunday in the Activities Building to play basketball, as well as other sports. The numbers of those who participate has risen over the past few years since Perry Brown, coordinator of intramural and the Fitness Center, started working at IU Southeast. Hired in 2006, Brown has been involved with sports since his high school years.

Channell Barbour, associate director of Campus Life, is recognized by many students due to her devoted time to many student organizations. Barbour can relate to many of the students she works with because, like many of them, she was the first in her family to attend college. Born and raised in Oldham County, Ky., Barbour said IU Southeast was once a mystery to her.

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.

The foundation will be established in the School of Business with a $100,000 fund from the Horseshoe Foundation. This is the first time IU Southeast has partnered with a foundation with such a large investment fund. Jay White, dean of the School of Business, said the money will be used to create a portfolio. The portfolio will be combined with a class teaching students how to make decisions about buying securities as well as selling securities. White said he previously spoke to Jerry Finn, head of the Horseshoe Foundation, years ago about the concept. However, it was not until the School of Business finished the Financial Markets Lab that Finn contacted White agreeing to support a student trading fund.
