Indiana University. Office of Military Information

The Office of Military Information was created 1 July 1942 at Indiana University to advise students, parents, faculty members and the general public about war service opportunities and regulations.

IU hosted several programs during World War II to prepare young men and women for military and civil service. Several of these programs placed students on inactive duty in the military until the completion of the program, at which time they were placed on active duty. With peace declared in 1945, the Office of Military Information had served its war-time mission and was dissolved in 1947.
