Dear colleagues,

A section of Richard Wright Drive will be closed Friday, September 27 from noon to 6 p.m. for the Homecoming Pep Rally Block party.

The Office of Continuing and Professional Education (CAPE) offers digital badging services that let UIS departments validate employee skills and acknowledge student achievements outside the classroom. 

You can partner with CAPE to design professional badges for your workshops, trainings, conferences, and other learning events. Badge earners can share their credentials on platforms like LinkedIn, showcasing what they have learned and their institution's commitment to professional growth.  

Impact of the FY24 Faculty & Staff Campaign

We had another great year because of AMAZING employees like you!

From Provost Schwab

Welcome to the Fall Semester! It is great to have more life on campus after a busy (and short) summer. I want to thank everyone who attended the Faculty & Staff Kickoff and a wonderful New Student Convocation and Party on the Quad. I commend our Student Affairs colleagues for the great events that will hopefully become a terrific UIS tradition that grows over time.

UIS faculty and staff are invited to honor this year's recipient of the prestigious University Scholars Award on Monday, September 30, in the Student Union Ballroom.

Good Idea Fund

Do you have a Good Idea that could help make a positive difference for UIS? We are pleased to announce the availability again this year of one-time (non-recurring) funds to support implementation of good ideas from UIS staff and faculty. A wide range of ideas will be considered with the goal to fund projects with broad impact to the University.
