MISSION

IU Outdoor Adventures is committed to providing unique, high quality outdoor programs, services, and products that engage, encourage, and empower everyone we serve in the lifelong journey of self discovery and development. As a result, Indiana University Outdoor Adventures performs a vital role in supporting the academic mission of Indiana University by enhancing the social, mental, and physical well being of the entire university community.

HISTORY

IU Outdoor Adventures began in 1972 as a committee of the Indiana Memorial Union Board. The early years involved occasional trips to local recreation destinations and a small fleet of rental equipment. After years of operating under the leadership of a graduate assistant from the School of Health, Physical Education, and Recreation, Dave Calvin became IUOA’s first professionally appointed Program Coordinator in 1995. Today, IUOA has greatly expanded to include over 120 trips and academic courses each year, 60 student Trip Leaders and professional instructors, a comprehensive rental operation, and IU’s only indoor climbing facility. IUOA moved to Eigenmann Hall in 2010, yet maintains its vital academic relationship with the School of HPER and continues to hold firm to its historical foundation as a student leadership program of the IMU.
