Future Plans: Teacher in central Illinois

Jenna Cisco chose the University of Illinois Springfield because she wanted to stay close to home and was encouraged by her brother, a UIS alum. “I like the small class sizes and I have met amazing students and professors on campus," she said. On campus, she is the Treasurer of Kappa Delta Pi, a member of the Prairie Area Teaching Initiative and cares for children at the Cox Children’s Center on campus. Jenna is looking forward to student teaching and graduation during the spring semester. Following graduation from UIS, she plans on teaching in central Illinois

Leadership is lived at UIS. Every Day.
