David Starr Jordan was a professor of zoology from 1875 to 1885 and then served as UI's seventh President from 1885 to 1891. He then left to help found [[Stanford University]]. Jordan Hall, Jordan River, Jordan Avenue and the Jordan Parking Garage were all named in his honor. On July 2, 2020, a committee was appointed to consider renaming these because some people disagree with certain statements and views that Jordan held.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://news.iu.edu/stories/2020/07/iub/releases/02-jordan-review-committee-appointed.htm|title=Committee appointed to review Jordan namings on IU Bloomington campus
