The IIC was the third state-based collegiate athletic conference attempted in Indiana, after the Indiana Intercollegiate Athletic Association (IIAA) and the Indiana College Athletic League (ICAL), but had many more members than its predecessors. The size and diversity of the IIC made it a loosely-constructed organization and doomed it to fail in the long run. Most of its members ended up joining the Hoosier College Conference (established 1947) or the Indiana Collegiate Conference (established 1950).
