III. Purpose
This award recognizes an individual who always demonstrates professionalism by serving the needs of the University community. This individual takes the extra step to ensure that all students/clients feel important and welcome, and those expectations are not only met, but exceeded.
Risk Scenario 1: UIS Student Affairs receives a phone call from a student’s guardian. “My child went on a trip with UIS, and I haven’t been able to reach him/her. I have reason to think that something went wrong. I’m not 100% sure what the trip was or where s/he was going. Can you help me?”
UIS is committed to maintaining a drug- and alcohol-free environment for its students and employees, in compliance with applicable federal, state and local laws. Students or employees who violate federal, state or local laws concerning drugs or alcohol are subject to criminal prosecution; those who violate the Policy and Program for Drug Prevention may also be subject to institutional sanctions.
This document establishes policy and provides procedural guidance on requests to use flag poles to display flags, pennants, banners or other items on University property by student organizations and groups.
Only requests from UIS recognized student organizations and groups shall be considered. Nothing prevents the University administration from using the flag poles for University purposes.
Beginning Spring, 2019, UIS Health Services will require Yellow Cards as evidence for immunization administered outside of the United States. Students unable to produce a Yellow Card to verify non-domestic vaccinations may receive the necessary immunizations at UIS Health Services or at any domestic health care provider of their choosing.
NOTE: This policy will be made explicitly clear in the application process so that all students are made aware of the requirements at the time they apply for admission to UIS.
The Board of Trustees is the governing body of the University of Illinois System, of which the University of Illinois Springfield is a part.
