Bloomington - There's a new way for Indiana University alumni, students, friends and fans to show their support for their school.
Since January 1, an all-new IU collegiate license plate is available. The plate features the new IU interlock logo in crimson against a white background. The design update is the first since the IU collegiate plate premiered in 1992.
Indiana residents with a vehicle registered in the state can get the IU plate at any Indiana license branch or request it through the mail. No authorization form is required.
The purchase of each IU plate includes a $25 tax-deductible contribution which supports IU Alumni Association programs and services, including the IUAA Scholars program, which provides scholarships for IU students.
In 2006, the Alumni Association awarded more than $290,000 in scholarships through its many alumni programs. IU license plate sales reached a record high in 2006.
More than 36,000 IU plates are on Hoosier vehicles, making the IU plate the most popular collegiate plate in Indiana.
