Portraits for faculty and staff are provided free of charge. It is important that all images in the USI directory are current and maintain a consistent look.

When To Schedule for a New Headshot

Following are the acceptable and preferred methods for the database photographs: 

  1. A photograph taken by Photography and Multimedia within the past five years.
  2. Portraits older than five years will be scheduled and retaken by Photography and Multimedia.
  3. For individuals who cannot come to campus, a placeholder will be used indicating that no photograph is available.

Opting Out

Individuals who do not want an image to appear on the USI website or in publications must complete an opt-out form. (use your USI credentials to log in)

Due to issues with size, quality and consistency, submitted headshots -  personal or professional - will not be accepted for the USI headshot database. Questions can be directed to the Director of University Communications, John Farless, contact: 812-228-5157 or jafarless@usi.edu
