Service Fridays serve the community
The Student Government Association and Student Life have a monthly partnership called “First Fridays.” In keeping with both organizations’ commitment to service, First Fridays is all about giving back to the community. Recently, SGA and Student Life assembled 100 care packages for women served by “Alabaster Jar Indy,” a nonprofit outreach organization for vulnerable young women. The two groups also participated in the Fall Creek Clean Up event, with students and staff beautifying the campus and the surrounding community.
Getting Fit with the Chancellor
Each Tuesday and Thursday at 6 p.m., students joined Chancellor Esters and other Ivy Tech faculty and staff for "Getting Fit with the Chancellor" for running or cycling. Students who participated in the event were put into a drawing for a $1,000 scholarship. On October 8, the group came together to celebrate activities and announce the scholarship winner(s). Scholarship recipients were Maria Goldstein, Claudia Rios and Tapiwa Mzumara.
First Gen Week celebrates students
From November 8 - 12, Ivy Tech Indianapolis held a very successful "First Gen Celebration Week," to celebrate those who are the first in their families to earn a degree. Festivities included a panel discussion, transfer fair, symposium and various games. The Intersectionality of First Gen Panel is available for viewing at link.ivytech.edu/IndyFirstGenPanel2021.
