Alumni Hall

Beck Chapel
This nondenominational chapel is as charming as it comes, set in a gardened area adjacent to the IMU. Perfect for religious ceremonies, it feels like a step back in time, in a little world of its own on IU’s sprawling campus.
Love Story
Tudor Room
Many visitors relate the Indiana Memorial Union to a castle, and the Tudor Room certainly supports that sentiment. This elegant hall beams with personality, providing a classical feel that speaks to your love story: grand, unique, and timeless.
