Happy Monday, UIS!
Today’s chill in the air is a reminder of how quickly the end of Fall semester is approaching. These next couple of weeks look to be busy on campus, with Halloween and fall festivities, engaging speaker presentations, Veterans Day programming, and an Open House for prospective students. Check out our online calendar for all the details. And good luck to our student-athletes and coaches entering post-season competition!

Dear Colleagues —
As part of our ongoing Rise initiative, I am hosting a Fall Employee Information Session from 2:30 to 4 p.m. Nov. 7 in Brookens Auditorium. Please note: This is a new time, date and place from information previously shared regarding this event due to last-minute scheduling conflicts among our leadership team.

Dear faculty and staff,
As we approach the holiday season, I’m looking for students' creativity to help design my 2023 holiday card. The winning artist will receive a $250 award and have their work shared with the campus community, alumni, donors and friends of UIS.

Dear Colleagues,
As we settle in to a new academic year at UIS, I am writing to invite you to participate in the State and University Employees Combined Appeal (SECA) campaign. SECA is an annual opportunity for our faculty and staff to make a meaningful difference in the lives of individuals and communities throughout Illinois and beyond. It provides an avenue for us to come together as a university and make a collective impact through charitable giving.
