Troi Wharton had to learn how to walk again. Ten years later, she walked the Kelley graduation stage.
By Salsabil F. Qaddoura | May 31Troi Wharton remembers the first time people noticed she could not walk straight. It was 2016, and Pokémon Go had taken over the summer. Wharton, then 20, was playing the game around Indianapolis with friends and family. At the canal. At the zoo. Anywhere her phone told her another Pokémon might appear. The game required players to physically move through the real world. For Wharton, that meant walking more than usual. For the people around her, it meant seeing what she had not yet accepted.
Q&A Interview: IU Luddy Indy Media Arts Lecturer Albert William retires after 35 years
By Zachary Aigbe | May 24Albert William, a Media Arts (3D) faculty member at IU Indianapolis began working with IU in 1991 in the School of Medicine, later earning his New Media --- later called Media Arts --- degree in Dec. 2002, and joined then-IUPUI’s School of Informatics --- later called the Luddy School of Informatics, Computing, and Engineering, Indianapolis --- faculty shortly afterward in 2003. His long career spans 35 years with IU Indy, and specifically 23 years within Luddy; his beginnings with the school spanning even further back from his early involvement in the New Media program around its earliest days in 2000 – back when classes were first being offered at the school, as he was a Master’s student at the time. This makes him not only one of the longest-tenured Luddy faculty members, but also one of the last ones from the school’s earliest days as well, including his time as a student there. At the end of the 2025-26 academic year, William retired.
