Fall Family Weekend 2025

Fall Family Weekend 2025 was a big success: beautiful weather, lots of Hoosiers and their families exploring the campus and community, and, of course, a tremendous 63–10 football win over Illinois!

Thanks go to all for being part of the IU family—we hope you enjoyed every moment and look forward to welcoming you back soon.
