Description of the video:
[Video: The title “Learn & Grow at IU” is superimposed over an image of students in caps and gowns at a commencement ceremony. On a white banner below, an IU trident is displayed with the text, “Indiana University Bloomington Division of Student Affairs, Partners in Student Success.”]
[Video cuts to Katie Paulin, Assistant Dean of Students. Her name appears on a crimson banner with an IU trident, and her title appears below. She is shown against a dark background with windows visible.]
Katie: Hello everyone. My name is Katie Paulin, and I'm an Assistant Dean of Students here at Indiana University.
[Video: The name banner disappears.]
Katie: Today we're going to share a little bit about how your student can continue to learn and grow outside of the classroom. With students at the center of all we do, the Division of Student Affairs promotes and facilitates a meaningful student experience that enhances success, lifelong learning, and personal growth. Our staff is committed to helping your student create a new home for themselves in Bloomington. We want them to get involved, develop healthy habits, find and create a safe community of friends, and ultimately learn about themselves and the world around them.
[Video: Cuts to DeeDee Dayhoff. Her name appears on a crimson banner with an IU trident, and her title appears below. She is shown against a darkened background, with windows visible.]
DeeDee: My name's DeeDee Dayhoff. I'm the Assistant Dean for Student Services and Parents.
[Video: The name banner disappears.]
DeeDee: And I know that sometimes students can make poor choices or mistakes. How does IU typically handle misconduct?
[Video: Cuts back to Katie.]
[Katie] So we all know life is definitely about learning and making mistakes happens, and generally they aren't the end of the world. What is critical is that students learn from those mistakes. Here to share more is Libby Spotts, Associate Dean and the Director of our Office of Student Conduct.
[Video: Cuts to Libby. Her name appears on a crimson banner with an IU trident, and her title appears below. Her video is framed with a crimson-scale image of Sample Gates. She is shown in a brightly lit space with framed pictures on the beige wall behind her.]
[Libby] Hi there. I'm Libby Spotts. I'm the Associate Dean of Students here at IU Bloomington and I oversee the Office of Student Conduct.
[Video: The name banner disappears.]
Libby: There are a couple of reasons we might interact with you or your student this year and a few things that we can be helpful with, and I want to make sure you're aware of those resources through this video today.
One of the things we can be helpful with is making sure your student has a healthy and safe environment in which to be a student and in which to engage. So if your student is experiencing an interpersonal problem with another person, or if there's somebody who's violating their rights as a student or making it difficult for them to be successful in this environment, we can be helpful in both informal and formal solutions to that problem. So we're always available to just talk and also to take reports or talk to students about what their options are.
Beyond that, we know that sometimes students make decisions and sometimes they make mistakes. We think mistakes are a pretty important part of this learning process. So we focus on the development of that. So if your student receives a letter from us saying that they may have violated the Code of Conduct. Please know that when they come to our office, we approach situations with integrity and respect. We seek to listen to students and we want to help them understand that if they are responsible, there are some different ways they can learn to take responsibility for decisions, that they can work through problems, that they can restore any harm that might have occurred, and we're going to help them develop the tools and the solutions to do that.
[Video: On the left of the screen, the IU logo appears. Underneath is the text, “Division of Student Affairs: OFFICE OF STUDENT CONDUCT” along with the number of the office: (812) 855-5419.]
Libby: If you have any questions, you're always welcome to call our office and we hope it's a fantastic year for you and your students here at IU. Bye.
[Video: Cuts back to DeeDee.]
DeeDee: So what can a parent or family member do if they become concerned about how their student is doing?
[Video: Cuts back to Katie.]
Katie: So no one knows students better than family members, and so we encourage them to trust their instincts. Please reach out to us with concerns or problems or questions you may have.
[Video: Cuts to a new image while Katie continues speaking as a voiceover. The IU Cares logo is shown in the upper left corner. Image of a woman comforting another woman who looks distressed. The text on-screen is as follows: “Concerned about your student? We’re ready to support them. Submit a Care Referral: go.iu.edu/care.”]
Katie: And one way to do that is through our Care Referral Form. This form provides us with important information so that the Dean of Students Office can reach out to your student who might be struggling and get them connected to the resources they need.
[Video: Cuts back to Katie. On the left side of the screen, next to Katie, IU Logo appears, along with the text “Division of Student Affairs: DEAN OF STUDENTS” and the phone number of the office: (812) 855-8187.]
Katie: Parents and family members can also call the Dean of Students Office, or any other offices within the Division of Student Affairs.
[Video: Cuts to DeeDee.]
DeeDee: What does IU do when students arrive on campus to support that transition to college life? And what about after that?
[Video: Cuts back to Katie.]
Katie: The Division of Student Affairs is committed to providing students with ongoing prevention and educational workshops. We start now during New Student Orientation, and then we'll have your student continue with some online programs over the summer.
[Video cuts to images of students and campus while Katie continues speaking in voiceover. Images include: a student with laptop open in her dorm room, surrounded by inspirational sayings as decor, “Laughter is Timeless,” and “The Darkest Nights Produce the Brightest Stars”; a crowd of students outside the IU Auditorium, which is decorated with banners displaying the season’s touring musical theatre series; two students smiling underneath an IU flag. Video then cuts back to Katie.]
Katie: We provide several workshops and events during Welcome Week, as well as programs throughout the year to engage students in learning about taking care of themselves, as well as how to interact with the rest of the world.
[Video: Cuts to images of students on campus while Katie continues speaking in voiceover. Images include: three students smiling while working together at a table; students interacting with a staff member in the Indiana Memorial Union at an involvement event; students tabling for IU Culture of Care at the entrance to Dunn Meadow.]
Katie: Encourage your student to be mindful of these opportunities.
[Video: Cuts back to Katie. An image of IU’s Sample Gates with the text, “IU is Home” appears in red inside a red circle to the left of Katie.]
Katie: Related to the idea of students growing beyond the classroom, research shows that it's critical for students to develop at least three key relationships at college.
[Video: IU is Home logo disappears. Images and text of the next three items appear and then disappear as Katie speaks: Peer (image of two people with arrows drawn in a circle between them), Role Model (image of a superhero), and Mentor (image of person at computer with another person standing over them).]
Katie: And those are a peer, a role model, and a mentor. A peer could be, but doesn't have to be, a roommate, a floor mate, or a classmate. A role model might be their Resident Assistant, their Orientation Leader, or a Teaching Assistant in one of their classes. And a mentor can be any adult: a faculty member, an academic advisor, someone from the Division of Student Affairs staff. These three connections will be invaluable to your students as they navigate college life and beyond.
[Video: Cuts to a white screen with the IU trident in a red rectangle, followed by the text, “Indiana University Bloomington, Division of Student Affairs.” Contact information for the Division of Student Affairs Website and their phone number (812-855-8187)]

[Video: The text 43,000 Journeys appears on screen.]

[Video: Text disappears]
Andi: Encourage them to take inIU's rich diversityof thought and experiences.Attend programs that are different fromtheir current experience. Strike upconversations with other studentswho have different opinions in class.Some of the best learning willhappen when your student leastexpects it and in placesthey did not plan to be.
[Video: cuts to Katie Paulin, Assistant Dean of Students. Her name appears on a crimson banner in the lower left corner, with her title below. She is shown against a dark background, with windows visible.]
Katie: Hello, I'm Katie Paulin,Assistant Dean of Students.And Andi, as you know,many of our students have beenreally involved in high school.Can you tell us a little bit about howthey might start getting involved at IU?
[Video cuts back to Andi for her response.]
Andi: First of all, I'd recommend thatall students attendthe Student Involvement Fair,which takes place duringthe first week of classes.
[Video: image of the Student Involvement Fair set up in Dunn Meadow on the IU Bloomington Campus. There are tables and banners set up, with a crowd of students in attendance.]
Andi: The fair is an annual campus event that showcasesopportunities to get involved,on and off-campus.
[Video shifts between images including: a student getting information at the Student Involvement Fair; an indoor fair set up with tables, banners, and crowd at the Indiana Memorial Union; three students posing together. Video cuts back to Andi before shifting back to more images: an aerial view of the Indiana Memorial Union; a student climbing a rock wall, a crowd of students cheering; a group of students playing Twister; members of the Essence Dance Team; a close-up of the IU trident on a stone-faced campus building. Video cuts back to Andi.]
Andi: Students attend the fair to connectwith a variety of student organizations,university programs,campus support services,and community organizations.The Student Involvement Fair featureshundreds of student organizationsand more than 40 local agenciesseeking new volunteers.Also, remember that studentscan find involvement opportunitiesall around campus withintheir school or college, throughIU Student Government, orthrough the Residence Hall Association,in addition to campus-wide organizationsand community groups through IU Corps.
I'd also recommend that students work to findthe right balance betweenacademics and involvement,especially in their first semester.Seeing all the opportunitiesavailable can seem exciting,but some students might havethe tendency to sign up for too much.So encourage your student to start slowly.Find a couple of organizationsthat they are interested in to beginand they can always add new experiences andopportunities as their IU journey continues.
[Video cuts back to Katie.]
Katie: I can imagine thatstudents might get pretty overwhelmedlooking at the hundreds of different clubsand organizations available at IU.What are your suggestionsabout finding a good fit?
[Video cuts back to Andi, and then quickly shifts to images: a group of students siting in a U-shaped formation with a staff member speaking in the muddle; a row of students seated watching a staff member who is standing and smiling.]
Andi: Our Student Involvement and Leadership staffare happy to meet with studentsindividually to help themidentify involvement opportunities.This team of staff membersalso work to adviseour student organizations and provideleadership training programsfor our student leaders.Here to share more aboutstudent involvement is Mara Dahlgren,the Director of the Student Involvementand Leadership Center.
[Video cuts to Mara Dahlgren. She is pictured in front of a tan wall. Her name appears on a crimson banner in the bottom left corner, with her title beneath.]
[Mara] With over 750 student organizations,there are lots of ways to get involved.And it can be challenging tonavigate all the opportunitiesand figure out which organizations to join.
[Video cuts to an image of students walking in the rain, carrying umbrellas and displaying a banner with the words, “Culture of Care.”]
Mara: So, to get started,I recommend that all students thinkabout why they want to get involved first,and then use that as a guidefor their involvement choices.
[Video cuts back to Mara.]
Mara: Students get involvedfor a lot of different reasons.I'll name a few here, they are notexhaustive, to help spur some reflection.
[Video shifts between images of students on campus while Mara speaks. Images include: students with computers at a counter with a Union Board banner behind them; student bowling in the Indiana Memorial Union bowling alley; a DJ playing while students roller-skate in an IMU meeting hall; a group of professionally dressed students posing for a photo with IU President Michael McRobbie.]
Mara: Students may be looking for fun,something to do in the evenings andweekends aftertheir academic and work commitments.Maybe looking to make new friendsand build new connections.Maybe looking to make an impact inthe local community throughservice and volunteerism.
[Video cuts back to Mara][
Mara: Maybe looking to learn somethingnew and gain a new skill.
[Video shifts between images including: professionally dressed students posing in two rows in front of a fireplace.]
Mara: Could be thinking about graduationalready andlooking for professional experience.
[Video cuts back to Mara briefly before shifting to images again. Images include an Asian performance troupe and students in cultural dress.]
Mara: Could be looking for their communitybased on their identity,culture, or religious belief.And could also have a unique interestand want to share it with others.
[Video cuts back to Mara.]
Mara: So when students have thought throughtheir reasons to get involved,I recommend they check outthe involvement fair in the fall, whereall our student organizations willbe on display and lookingfor new members.
[Video displays an image of the mobile beINvolved page with the text, “Find ways to get involved on the beINvolved website. beInvolved, explore – belong – lead.”]

[Video cuts back to Andi.]
Andi: Students can also researchthe many organizations through ourbeINvolved online system or talk withtheir RA or orientation leaderabout ways to get involved.
[Video cuts to Katie.]
Katie: What about students who areinterested in getting involvedin the Greek system?How would they go about exploring that option?
[Video cuts back to Andi. While Andi speaks, contact information for the IU Division of Student Affairs Office of Sorority and Fraternity Life appears on screen. OSFL Website and Phone number: 812-855-4311.]
Andi: Involvement in sororitiesand fraternities isa great way to meet people,become a better leader,and participate in philanthropy, whilejoining a community that can last a lifetime.When choosing a sorority or fraternity,students should ask themselveswhether the organization will helpthem grow academically,personally, and professionally.
[Video shifts to an image of a group of students in Greek letter t-shirts posing in front of Sample Gates. Video then cuts back to Andi.]
Andi: Four councils govern all sororitiesand fraternities at IU,and each council hasits own recruitment schedule.Some councils have formal recruitment andsome recruit onan individual basis throughout the year.Here to share more about Greek life at IUis Dr. Leslie Fasone,Assistant Dean for Sororityand Fraternity Life.
[Video cuts to Leslie Fasone. Her name appears on a crimson banner in the lower left corner, with her title below. She is sitting on a white couch against a gray wall. There is an IU trident tile displayed on the table to the right side of the screen. While Leslie speaks, images of Greek life are displayed, including: students dancing at the IU Dance Marathon; students holding up a number display at the Dance Marathon.]
Leslie: Joining a sorority or fraternity isone way to get involved and connected at IU.Greek letter organizations havebeen a part of the fabric ofIndiana University over 175 years.They are grounded in the tenetsof brotherhood and sisterhood,civic engagement, service, and leadership,and they providea unique and well-rounded opportunityfor students to grow and develop.Many prominent alumni have been Greek,including our infamous, longstandingand former president, Herman B Wells.
[Video: an image of Herman B Wells is shown on the screen before cutting back to Leslie. More images of students are shown: students cheering in the stands and Indiana Memorial Stadium; students riding bicycles in the Little 500 race.]
Leslie: The sorority andfraternity community is comprised of68 organizations in 4 different councils:the Interfraternity Council,the National Pan-Hellenic Council,and MultiCultural Greek Council,and the Panhellenic Association.20% of the undergraduate student population,which is nearly 8,000 students aremembers sororities and fraternities.
[Video shifts to a screen with Leslie and two other staff members in the Office of Sorority and Fraternity Life shown on cell phone screens. Text: Watch the Sorority and Fraternity Life Video on the FYE Website’s Parent Pages.”]
Leslie: We encourage you to takea few minutes to watchthe Office of Sorority and Fraternity Life's video wherestaff and student leaders providea more in depth overview of thevarious chapters and councilsthat make up our Greek community.
[Video displays images of students in a crowd before shifting back to Leslie.]
Leslie:They will also provide information aboutrecruitment and intake processes,expectations of membership, andthe benefits of joininga Greek letter organization.You will have a chance tohear directly from students soyou can learn more about howtheir organization haspositively impactedthem and their college experience.While there are many ways to get involved,we hope that you or yourstudent will explore whatsorority or fraternity life has tooffer and how itcan enhance their time at IU.
[Video cuts back to Katie.]
Katie: So do students have to be involvedin the Greek system tohave a good experience at IU?
[Video cuts back to Andi. The text “8,000 students are members of a fraternity or sorority at IU,” appears next to her, and then fades.]
Andi: Approximately 8,000 ofour students choose to joina sorority or fraternity tohelp build their on-campus connections.That means though, that the majority ofstudents are not affiliatedwith the Greek system.
[Video: text “800+ organizations and clubs are available to join at IUB,” appears next to Andi, and then fades.]
Andi: With over 800 clubs and organizations tojoin and countless leadership opportunities,students can certainly findways to be involvedif they choose not to joina sorority or fraternity.
[Video: text, “Find your path,” and an image of a dashed trail with a location marker appear next to Andi, and then fade.]
Andi: Again, each student's journeywill be different.And what's important is thatthey find the path that's right forthem rather thanfollowing someone else's path.
[Video cuts to a crimson screen with an IU trident in the upper left corner and the following quote: “Although IU Bloomington is a campus of 40,000+ students, being involved has made this campus feel like a much smaller place to me. Through my involvement in different areas on campus, I have made many friends who have helped to make IU really feel like home.” Kirsten Stenger, BS ’20, Apparel Merchandising, Former President IU Student Alumni Association.]

Amanda: When you think about funding abroad,you can think of it like a funnel.You have your federal aid, your state aid,your university aid, and yourstudy abroad grants and scholarships.Your federal financial aid are things likesubsidized and unsubsidized loans or Pell Grants.And in the types of programs thatI've described here today through our office,you can use those financial aid moniestowards the cost of studying abroad.For state financial aid,these would be things likethe O'Bannon or 21st century.Yep. The types of programsI've described here today,you can use the state-based aidtowards that as well.University grants and scholarships are things likethe provost or the deansor the merit-based scholarships.And again, on the types ofprograms I've described today,you can use almost all ofyour university-based aid as well.Last, we have study abroadgrants and scholarships.These are unique to study abroad.And for example, Indiana University hasthe Hutton International Experiences Program,or HIEP grant,and that is designed specifically forstudents who are pursuingan international experience,and it is only forIndiana University students.
[Video: The slide with bullet points is replaced by another white slide with a red banner on the bottom with the IU trident and text reading “Office of Overseas Study in the lower left.

There is also an arrow pointing down signifying that for IU students studying abroad, there is less in student loans, which is written in all caps with “Less” bolded and larger.]
Amanda: What this means is over the past five years,we've seen more students getting study abroadgift aid, resulting in a decrease in the amount ofloans that students take.
[Video: A new slide appears with a white background and a red banner on the bottom with the IU trident and text reading “Office of Overseas Study in the lower left. There is a bar chart with the title “financial aid”. It shows that between 2014 and 2019, aid has increased every year in the totals of study abroad gift aid, other gift aid, and loans.]
Amanda: More specifically, in the last academic year,of the nearly $14 million infinancial aid that students took with them abroad,you can see that the minoritywas in the form of loans.The majority were the form of gift aid,and those are the monies thatyou don't have to pay back.
[Video: A red slide with a white IU trident at the top center and the text “The Journey Begins” in the center appears. It is quickly replaced by an image of a boy in a jacket and hat walking along a trail toward a mountain whose peaks are in the clouds. The trail is lined with grass and shrubs. This is quickly replaced by an image of people in concert attire standing in front of someone playing a keyboard, which is then replaced with an image of a girl in a kayak floating on water with trees in the background.

[Video: That slide is replaced by an image of the IUB Office of Overseas Study Office building. It is a brick and wood structure with cream and crimson wood panels at the top and a chimney.

The banner is surrounded on the top and bottom by images from around the world, including landscapes, buildings, canals, mountains, oceans, people smiling, rivers, clouds, and beaches. As the speaker is talking, the images shift to the left slowly to reveal more images of landscapes and monuments.]
