University of Illinois Springfield Student Affairs staff and programs were honored with awards at the Association of College Unions International (ACUI) Region V Conference in Madison, Wisconsin, October 27-29, 2022.
Marie Watson, associate director of student life, received the Inspiring Vision Award for mid-level professionals.

Springfest is planned by multiple student organizations and features a variety of activities for students across campus.
