Welcome to SOAR:
the Student Organization for Alumni Relations

The Student Organization for Alumni Relations (SOAR) was formed on the IUPUI campus in 1996 in order to increase student awareness of IUPUI alumni activities and programs. SOAR's mission is to serve students past, present, and future at IUPUI and serve as the official IUPUI Campus Ambassadors.

SOAR has a membership of over 200 students and is overseen by an Executive Board comprised of 11 student officers. SOAR promotes the development of leadership, organizational, and interpersonal skills among its members. As the official IUPUI Student Ambassadors, SOAR also provides its members with experiences that enhance their education, as well as opportunities to meet alumni, faculty, staff, and students of IUPUI.

IUPUI Regatta

The Student Organization for Alumni Relations, the IUPUI Alumni Council, and the Central Indiana Chapter of the IUAA are hosting the inaugural IUPUI Regatta, a canoe relay race on the Downtown Canal.  Students, alumni, and faculty/staff are invited and encouraged to form teams to participate in this new campus event, which will feature a community carnival with fun, food, and music.  Teams will race against others in their respective categories, culminating in a final race between students, alumni, and faculty/staff with winners receiving bragging rights and a spot on the IUPUI Regatta Cup trophy.
