2015 IU Trustee Election - Candidate Forum

Indiana University alumni have the privilege and responsibility to elect 3 of the 9 members of the IU Board of Trustees. Indiana's governor appoints the other six, including a student trustee. All trustees serve three-year terms, with the exception of the student trustee who serves a two-year term. Since alumni-elected trustees serve rotating terms, alumni vote for one each year.This year's candidates running for election are:

• Dr. Jay Asdell of South Bend, IN - DDS'83
• Philip N. Eskew, Jr. of North Webster, IN - MD'70
• Dr. Mike Wilcox of Ellettsville, IN - BS'90, MS'97

In accordance with state law, the annual election is conducted by the Ruth Lilly Dean of University Libraries, Brenda Johnson, on the Bloomington campus, with assistance from the IU Alumni Association.
