On February 13th at halftime of the men's basketball game, any student-athlete (regardless of sport) who has earned a cumulative GPA of 3.4 or higher will be introduced. The seniors who will be introduced have been asked to select the UIS faculty or staff member who has been most influential during the student's time here. That person will be introduced along with the student. If you are asked – congratulations! Please accept only one invitation if you get asked by multiple seniors.

If you attend one athletic event this year, make it this one. Tip-off for the Women’s game is 5:30, and the men’s game is 7:30 PM.

Admission is free for faculty and staff! This event has been carefully scheduled to increase the likelihood of faculty attendance. We hope there will be a good crowd to see these students acknowledged for their accomplishments and the faculty’s contribution to them.
