BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP) - Indiana University is taking reservations for Bloomington students and employees who want to get a free swine flu shot once the vaccine arrives on campus.

IU is taking reservations online and will give the H1N1 vaccine to students and employees in high risk categories. Those eligible can reserve a 10-minute time slot between 11 a.m. and 7 p.m. on a Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday. Once the vaccine arrives, people with reservations will get an e-mail telling them the calendar date for their vaccination.

IU Health Center Medical Director Diana Ebling says IU has no idea when it might receive the vaccine or how many doses it will get.
