Greetings Campus Community,

The water has been shut off to all floors of PAC Tower 2 due to an unexpected plumbing problem discovered this afternoon. Our crews are actively working on repairs.

Please note that Towers 1 and 3 are not affected, and their restrooms remain available for use.

We will share an update as soon as we have more information on the resolution timeline.

We appreciate your patience and understanding.

The annual fire drills for this year will be conducted on Thursday, October 31, and Friday, November 1 for the UIS campus. Please pay special attention to your building assembly points as some have been revised for the ease of assembly by location.

Greetings Campus Community,

We are writing to inform you of inspections taking place this week in Brookens, Public Affairs Center, and University Hall as part of a facilities condition assessment effort led by the university system.

Work begins September 5 on the PAC Roof Replacement Project. Contractor equipment and materials will be staged in the lot on the southwest side of the building, near the loading dock and stage door.

For safety reasons, this lot will be closed to all non-contractor vehicles from September 4 to October 25, to provide a dedicated area for roofing crews to safely operate and work.

Dear UIS Campus Community,

As we continue to experience extreme heat this week, City Water, Light & Power (CWLP) has issued a Maximum Generation Warning. This is due to the increased demand for electricity and a potential energy supply shortage from the Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO), the regional electric grid operator for the central United States.

Greetings Campus Community,

The replacement of a rooftop heating and cooling unit on the Student Life Building (SLB) is scheduled for this Wednesday, August 21. Work will begin in the early morning and may continue until late afternoon.

A crane will be in use for this project. Please avoid the work area and use alternate routes when possible. 
We appreciate your patience and understanding as we strive to ensure the safety and functionality of our building systems.

Feel free to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

Dear Campus Community,

We are reaching out to inform you about an upcoming service call that will be conducted the morning of Monday, August 12 on the fire alarm speaker system in PAC.  During this service call, the speakers will be tested to ensure all are working properly.

Please note:

Dear Campus Community,

We are reaching out to inform you about an important upcoming project on the Founders Residence Hall roof. For the safety and integrity of the building, we must temporarily remove the green roof to inspect the underlying rubber membrane.

This inspection will help us identify any areas needing repair and determine if replacement is necessary. We’ll use the results of the inspections to guide our planning and scheduling. While we don’t have a specific timeline yet, work may begin as early as Monday, August 5.

F&S will be repairing the concrete steps on the west side of the PAC teardrop entrance. The repairs will include filling cracks and crevices as well as replacing crumbling or broken sections.

Work will begin this week and is expected to be completed mid-to-late August.

The steps will be closed during the work. For your safety, barriers and signage will be placed around the work areas so please use caution when walking in the vicinity.

We appreciate your patience as we work to enhance campus safety and infrastructure.
