Inside UIS 8.3.26

Dear UIS Community,

The Department of Strategic Communication has created a new layout for the biweekly Monday newsletter for faculty and staff, now called Inside UIS: News for UIS Faculty and Staff. If you would like to request that information be published in Inside UIS, please post it on Orbit first, then complete a Campus Communications Form. The link to the form can always be found at the bottom of the newsletter. Faculty and staff are encouraged to check Orbit regularly, as it is the primary source for the most current university information for employees.

The newsletter will move from its summer monthly schedule to its regular bi-monthly schedule beginning this month.
