IUPUI is Going Uncommonly Common

IUPUI is doing something very uncommon for the next two years. We have a common theme. Our common theme this year is based on the book, Deep Economy, written by Bill McKibben who will be coming to IUPUI and to share his ideas. IUPUI as a campus is promoting McKibben’s focus. Most of the classes around campus have already been introducing the common theme.

McKibben offers good advice: Community, not materials, equals true happiness. Healthy relationships provide happiness and fill a void that is missing. IUPUI wants to bring the students and staff together for a healthy economy and environment.

Imagine if this campus of 30,000+ students and all of its staff and faculty took the time to focus our energy on building a healthy, sustainable community that will strengthen our economy. That is the goal of this new campus initiative.
