Reaching Stellar: The Campaign for the University of Illinois Springfield seeks to raise funds from friends and alumni for UIS students and our wider community. This month we honor alumna Karen Hasara, who received an honorary doctorate of humane letters during 2019 UIS Commencement. Karen envisions a stronger, more connected world in the future. Read about how Karen Hasara is contributing to that future through a scholarship bequest. Pictured: Karen Hasara and recipient Garrad Straube at the 2018 Scholarship Luncheon.
