Following the success of our fall retreat, there will be a Professional Development Retreat on March 1 for all faculty and staff. More details, including registration information, will be forthcoming, but please mark your calendars for this next Rise event.

Happy Monday, UIS!

And what a Monday it is. Due to icy conditions, in-person classes have been canceled today, and the Liberal Leave Policy is in effect. Many employees are working remotely today, so please check with departments ahead of time before planning to visit in person. Please note that Food Service is in operation today but may have limited options. 

My sincere thanks to the employees who are working hard to keep campus warm and safe today. 

On Thursday, February 1, at halftime of the men's basketball game, any student-athlete (regardless of sport) who has earned a cumulative GPA of 3.4 or higher will be introduced. The seniors who will be introduced have been asked to select the UIS faculty or staff member who has been most influential during the student's time here. That faculty member will be introduced along with the student. If you are asked – congratulations! Please accept only one invitation if you get asked by multiple seniors.

The following campus units have announced that their offices are closed or staff are working remotely on Monday, January 22.

Effective Monday, January 22, 2024
