11 alums make list of influential Hoosiers
A number of DePauw University’s alumni have been named to the Indiana 250, a list of “the state’s most influential and impactful business and community leaders.” That’s how IBJ Media describes its list of representatives of public and private companies, law firms, universities, nonprofits, government and community organizations. Elected officials were not eligible.
Reporters and editors who work at IBJ’s three news brands – Indianapolis Business Journal, Inside INdiana Business and Indiana Lawyer – compiled the list after reviewing nominations, researching organizations and interviewing leaders across the state. (Pictured on the magazine cover, seated in the center among other business leaders, is Justin Christian ’95.)
Alumni on the list are:
David Becker ’75, founder, chair and CEO of First Internet Bank and member of the DePauw Board of Trustees.
Meg Held Christensen ’04, office managing partner, Dentons Bingham Greenebaum LLP.
Darianne Howard Christian ’95, Newfields chair.
