The Regatta is a one day event each year that many people go to on campus that lets you enjoy life by paddling and competing in groups against other teams on the canal. It is really exciting and lots of fun. There is also a welcoming week every year where there are free t-shirts and food given out for new students on campus.

It is a combined school of IU and Purdue. They have TONS of great programs here. For example, we have the business program that IU is so well-known for. We also have great math programs that Purdue is known for.

I think it's sad that you could consider start of the term traffic and parking congestion as a school 'tradition.' While we do have a winter dance, speech night finals, career fairs, regattas, conferences, speakers, charity walks, and other such things, there are no true on campus traditions at IUPUI.

IUPUI appears to be widely known for bringing students together. IUPUI is about making friends, sharing common interests, and enjoying your college experience. The bridge program allows students to connect before the school year even begins and start building strong friendships.

Parking lot students, these are people who drive to compus leave their car to go to class and go back to their car to go home or wait for their next class. This is a sad concept, but happens quite a great deal.
