At an annual dinner for the Board of Aeons, Indiana University President Michael A. McRobbie and First Lady Laurie Burns McRobbie shared their appreciation for the Aeons' remarkable service to the university.
The Board of Aeons is an organization made of IU students who advise McRobbie and his administration, and the 2017-18 members are a group in a line of student leaders who have made a difference at IU for more than 95 years.
Each year, the Aeons work on special projects that are presented to McRobbie at the end of the spring semester. Through this experience the Aeons gain insight into the planning, development and strategic decision-making at IU.
At a recent dinner in honor of the Aeons, President McRobbie recognized the student officers of the organization, including John McHugh, president, and Mica Caine, vice president.
He congratulated McHugh, who received the Herman B Wells Award, and Fan Bu, Mica Caine and Caroline Oates, who were recipients of the Kate Hevner Mueller Outstanding Senior Award. He also recoginized Jessica Chiang, who received the Susan Butler Award.
He also praised the Aeons selection of new members, noting the outstanding dedication of the current Board to recommend such a high-quality group.
