The bronze Benton Mural Medallion features a representation of a portion
of the Thomas Hart Benton Mural. The reverse side has the seal of the
university and space for the name of the recipient and date of presentation.
Criteria for recipients include distinction in public office or service,
a significant relationship to Indiana University or Indiana, significant
service to IU programs, students, or faculty, significant contribution
to research or support for research. The medal also recognizes individuals
who are shining examples of the values of IU and the universal academic
community. A certificate is presented when the medal is given.
It was first presented on July 21, 1986, to the president of Nanjing
University by then-President Ryan.
