Mariah Butler Leaving IPFW
For nearly three years, Mariah Butler has served as the director of IPFW's Office of Institutional Equity. Since she was named director, the office has undergone a name change from Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity to Institutional Equity. Butler says the name change reflects the broader scope of the office. During her time at IPFW, Butler raised awareness of the range of issues the office handles. The office also began a bi-monthly electronic newsletter, On Balance.
Butler and her family are moving to Cleveland, where her husband has accepted a new position.

Professor Elaine Blakemore's book Gender Development was used as a resource for the New York Times' Best Seller Cinderella Ate My Daughter. Author Peggy Orenstein also interviewed Blakemore, a professor in the IPFW Department of Psychology. The book has been discussed on several national shows.
