On January 20, 2020, we commemorated the university’s 200th anniversary and Martin Luther King Jr. Day with a keynote lecture featuring Viola Davis on the Bloomington campus.
Other events included the dedication of the new IU Bloomington history mural panels in Wright Quad as well as the newly commissioned Lux et Veritas paintings in Presidents Hall, the dedication of the Big Red 200 Supercomputer, and the return of Megalonyx jeffersonii, a digitally reconstructed skeleton of a giant sloth that once existed within the natural history collections at Indiana University.
