University provides two files, but there is no explanation regarding money.
The Kinsey Institute at Indiana University is not permitted by state rules, but it’s not clear whether the institution will comply.
In response to a request for public records from Indiana University for “payments made to Indiana University on behalf of the Kinsey Institute or the Indiana University Foundation on behalf of the Kinsey Institute between 8/1/2024 and 2/18/2025,” The College Fix just obtained two papers.
State funding for the Bloomington University think tank was prohibited by a two-year state resources that was passed in 2023.
The think tank’s name is derived from the controversial sex scholar Alfred Kinsey. His options include a well-known baby murderer and others who claimed to have witnessed sexual behavior in young children, as recently reported by The Fix.
The school provided the report after receiving numerous requests for clarity and remark, as is typical for Fix demands to IU.
On July 10, 2024, according to one document, the Indiana University Foundation gave the academy$ 1, 943, 000. According to the reason,” Indirects provided to Kinsey from IUF transferred to BL campus.” This is for” F&, A Expenses,” which is presumably referred to as the university’s” F&, A Expenses,” which is essentially the rent Kinsey Institute pays the university. The organization asks supporters to make donations to the base.
However, the school is not at all distinct from the base. Everything we do supports IU, according to the IUF “mission and management” site.
Additionally, the site states that “ours is a simple goal: give Indiana University with the financial aid it needs.”
A statement from the Northern Trust Company, which states that the school was given$ 2, 361, 049.43 in July 2024 from the IU Foundation, is visible on another website.
The Indiana University Media Relations group did not respond to numerous emails and voicemail inquiries for information on these funds and costs. In the past few days, The Fix spoke with Mark Bode, Vic Ryckaert, Barbara Brosher, Marah Yankey, and Ryan Piurek.
In recent months, Bode, the state’s media director, and Ryckaert, the chief official for the Bloomington school, and the IU media group in general, have ignored or declined to respond to phone calls, emails, and phone messages asking for comment on who will pay for hate crimes committed against students, potential civil rights violations, the school’s bias reporting system, and national government funding for questionable Middle Eastern studies programs.
The Kinsey Institute itself referred The Fix to IU’s internet relationships group. Regarding inquiries about the Institute’s methods for ensuring compliance with the law and the cash sources it uses.
In a letter to the school in October 2024, Attorney General Todd Rokita and Comptroller Elise Nieshalla expressed concern about how the school adheres to the laws, as previously reported by The Fix.
Rokita’s business requested an upgrade, but Comptroller Nieshalla declined to comment. Her company moved forward with a statement from January 10:
As the State Comptroller, I am a vocal advocate and proponent of accountability, fiscal obligation, and the rule of law. My company received a notification about the law that forbids state funding of the Kinsey Institute as the elected official who distributes tax dollars to various government bodies, including universities. I hope the University’s replies to my questions regarding compliance will help me hold the University responsible. After researching the Kinsey Institute myself more in-depth, I am aware of why the government passed this bill into law and the Governor signed it.
The answer of IU to state laws was criticized by the CEO of a federal watchdog group.
According to Start the Books CEO John Hart, the Kinsey Institute was located on campus and research was conducted by academics on public wages, as we past checked, in a press release. Just rerouting money is an excellent illustration of how to do the least amount to adhere to the law rather than to follow the people’s wishes, [who] should be diligent about institutions trying to preserve the status quo.
According to Teresa Manning of the National Association of Scholars, an inspection may be conducted into the operation of the Kinsey Institute.
According to Maintaining,” The Indiana Attorney General should look into these allegations and determine whether this kind of criminal behavior persists.” From the beginning to the present, the latest Kinsey Institute’s officials should be interrogated and all its records reviewed.
Research universities should be conducting research on a cure for cancer, autism, or [alzheimer’s ] disease rather than pursuing or tolerating pseudo research conducted by organizations like the Kinsey Institute, which promotes sexual hedonism while pretending this is somehow scientific. She said,” It’s not.”
I recommend that all students be removed from the campus and not supported by any state or alumni foundation ( the IU Foundation ). Just in accordance with the wishes of the public and the spirit of the law.
