(765) 455-9468 meradel@iuk.edu KOKOMO, Ind. — U.S. News & World Report ranks Indiana University Kokomo among the best regional campuses in the Midwest, a first-ever mention for the campus that includes a Tier 1 level, and the only IU regional campus to receive this recognition. The 2013 annual report, released Wednesday, September 12, lists IU Kokomo as a top regional campus in the category of regional colleges that focus on undergraduate education but grant fewer than half their degrees in liberal arts disciplines. Among the 74 ranked, only seven of those are public institutions.
