Brandon Tibbs enjoys the University of Illinois Springfield because of the small size. “It’s not too big, so I know where everything is,'' he said. Tibbs is a member of Leadership 4 Life, Alternative Spring Break and Christian Student Fellowship. He also works as an internal auditing administrative intern for the State of Illinois’ Central Management Services as part of the Graduate Public Service Internship Program. When asked why he chose UIS he said, “it’s smaller compared to a lot of bigger schools.” Following graduation from UIS, he plans to obtain as many certifications as he can in his field.

Leadership is lived at UIS. Every Day.
