Women's basketball team loses home opener to UIC 50 - 52. IUPUI trailed for most of the game and ultimately fell short. This was their first ever loss to UIC.
IUPUI hosted their 15th annual Curtis Memorial Oratorical Contest (CMOC) on Dec. 6. This is a contest offered to students currently enrolled in R110. The Contest was founded by Professor Emeritus of Communication Studies, Richard Curtis, and his wife, Beth, to honor the memory of his brothers, Robert and Dana, both of whom were killed in war. This contest offers IUPUI undergraduate students the opportunity to give speeches focused on a commitment to peaceful resolution of conflict. This year's finalists were Casey Suarez, Tanya Ma, Dakota Jobe, Kennedy McCormack, Blue Schaeffer and Theint New Nyein. Each finalist had the opportunity to give a speech on a topic of their choosing as long as it centered around creating a peaceful resolution to a conflict. All finalists were given scholarships for their participation. The placement for the contest is as follows in descending order: Theint New Nyein ($600), Kennedy McCormack ($500), Blue Shaeffer ($500), Tanya Ma ($400), Casey Suarez ($150) and Dakota Jobe ($100).
The Speaker's Lab hosted their 103rd Bi-Annual Speech Contest at the Madame Walker Theater on December 5th, 2022. Freshman Preston Tindall won a $1500 scholarship for his speech, "Male Suicide: The Silent Epidemic."
