    A lovely building that houses some interesting art. Also notable for serving as a nice host venue during the Limestone Comedy Festival.

    Indiana University - The massive main library has escalators.  This looks like a bureaucratic building from the '60s in DTLA. (no review)

    My Alma matter! Indiana University is a wonderful university, with lots of programs degrees, and…read moretop-tier professors. I graduated over a decade ago and I wish I could go back in time and go through all 4 years again. Wouldn't change a thing though. Maybe less expensive textbooks? Haha! But anyway, not only did I and millions of others receive an excellent education, we also were educated in one of the best college towns in the country! There are wineries, state parks, kind people, and lots to do! Anyone need a travel buddy? I'd love to go back!

    am writing to formally report serious misconduct by staff at the IU Kelley School of Business…read moreAlumni Association that I believe constitutes retaliation, unauthorized surveillance, and a potential violation of my rights under the Americans with Disabilities Act. I am a graduate of the IU Kelley School of Business living with a traumatic brain injury. Over the past several months I have made repeated, good-faith attempts to access basic alumni networking resources. My requests went entirely unanswered by Mr. Melvin, the head of the Kelley Alumni Association. When I took the step of notifying Kelley faculty of my concerns regarding how the alumni association is being operated, Mr. Melvin responded not with assistance, but with a threatening letter. Within that letter, Mr. Melvin explicitly stated that Mr. Eric Rodkin, Safety & Security Specialist at Hodge Hall, had been assigned to monitor and inspect all of my emails. I have a copy of this letter and am prepared to provide it as evidence. I must be direct: this is not a minor administrative failure. This is retaliation. A university alumni director used a physical security employee to conduct surveillance of a disabled alumnus's private communications -- solely because that alumnus raised legitimate concerns about the performance of a publicly funded university department. This conduct is deeply troubling and I believe it raises the following serious concerns: 1. RETALIATION - I was threatened and placed under surveillance in direct response to exercising my right to voice concerns about a publicly funded university department 2. UNAUTHORIZED SURVEILLANCE - Mr. Rodkin's role is limited to physical building security at Kelley. He has no legitimate authority to monitor the private email communications of alumni 3. ADA VIOLATION - As a person with a traumatic brain injury, using intimidation and surveillance to discourage me from accessing alumni services may constitute discrimination under the Americans with Disabilities Act 4. ABUSE OF POSITION - Mr. Melvin's use of a security employee to threaten and monitor an alumnus is a serious misuse of university resources and authority Mr. Melvin's Email Joshua, We are in receipt of your recent messages directed toward our faculty and staff. We have tried to address your issue multiple times and have clearly communicated that you will need to work directly with LinkedIn to resolve the problem. You still have access to the alumni group on LinkedIn. The tone and content of your most recent communications are unacceptable and have exceeded the boundaries of constructive dialogue and a professional code of conduct. This email serves as a formal request for you to cease sending any messages to members of my team, faculty, and staff regarding this issue. We are committed to maintaining a safe and respectful professional environment, and we do not tolerate communication that compromises the well-being of our faculty and staff. Please be advised that our Safety and Security Specialist has been looped into this correspondence and is now monitoring all incoming communications from your accounts. We will be forced to escalate this matter to the appropriate university officials and, if necessary, law enforcement, if you continue to disparage our team members. We ask that any future inquiries be kept strictly professional and limited to specific, actionable matters. Thank you, Bryan Bryan L.

    Indiana University - Many of the limestone dormitories look like this from the outside.  It doesn't help that it was a cold and overcast day. (no review)

Photography, sculpture, ink drawings, let your imagination run wild. The other side to the artisans are the renting of art spaces and tiny business areas. They're often quite cost-effective, and a community of artisans has resulted in their various locations (and availability to enter during the pandemic is mixed and limited-- see their website). If art is beauty to you, you'll find something-- maybe many things-- you'll like. Be sure to check the website for pandemic restrictions before you go.

Five artists and titles have been identified in the project and additional art can be seen including Friendly Beasts' door which is painted, but not identified on the plaque mounted on the street side of the building. The first piece on the west side of the building is a brightly colored piece called "Unity is Community" by C D Culper. There are multiple human figures each only having one eye open. The faces also seem to have a second profile face obscuring half of the face directly looking at the viewer. The next piece is the "Entrance to Paradise" by Haider Ali. The small mural covers a doorway and has a beautiful mountain scenic painted. On the north end of the wall is the huge mural called "Wooden Wall of Life" by Adam Long. This piece stretches over several openings in the wall and is done in mostly blues and greens with images of twisted trees and roots that take on human form. Around to the north side of the building is another large mural with a rainbow of colors forming swirls for a background while additional objects seem to float in front. This is called "Sacred Journey" by Sacred Matthews. On the east side of the building by the parking lot is "Hive Mind" by Laura Brikmanis. It depicts a honeycomb with oversized bees crawling around. The art work is so precise that I am guessing she used a template/stencil to create the perfect geometry of the honeycomb grid and possibly on the bees too. It's a great collection of local talent and a way to check out multiple pieces all in one location. Note: To the north of the building is the Bluetip Billiards building that has a colorful mural of pool balls on the side and front. The owner of the business was unable to identify the artist when contacted. Review #2221
