Spaces

The Student Union is home to many spaces suitable for a wide variety of events or programs that are meant to be utilized by the entire campus community. Some spaces are public and always available, while others must be reserved in advance in order to use.

Registered Student Organizations are always able to reserve space in the Student Union free of charge, unless they are hosting an event where they are charging an admission fee for guests. In the first 2 months of a given semester, student events get priority for scheduling space for events taking place in the following semester. Non-student affiliated events and programs will be able to reserve space after this period.

The UIS Student Union is a great place to promote events held in the building, as well as University-wide programs or campaigns.

This space can be reserved at the Welcome Desk in the Union. Please see our banner policy guide for more information on what is accepted.

To submit content to display on these signs, please fill out the Sign Content Request Form. Any faculty, staff, or student can submit content.
