An IU spokesman would not comment on details of the announcement.
IU renamed its law school in Bloomington in honor of Indianapolis attorney and businessman Michael Maurer, who gave $35 million to the school in December 2008. Maurer is co-owner of IBJ Media.
IU President Michael A. McRobbie is among university officials who are expected to attend the announcement scheduled for 1:30 p.m. at Lawrence W. Inlow Hall on the IUPUI campus east of downtown.
The law school has annual enrollment of roughly 1,000 and awards about 300 degrees in a given academic year.
