Greetings Campus Community!

We are counting down until the 2025 Retirement & Recognition Ceremony where we will come together to celebrate our colleagues as a campus community.

In addition to retirements, we will also be celebrating colleagues for milestone achievements of 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30 years of service.

Please consider joining us in the celebration that will take place in the Student Union Ballroom from 9:00-10:30 a.m.

On February 13th 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 person 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 UIS Course Survey App was launched this Spring, beginning with Intersession courses. Full-time and adjunct faculty are invited to attend a walk-through informational session to preview your students’ experience in the Course Survey App. Plenty of time is planned for Q&A, and we welcome questions to help populate the Course Survey App FAQ. We hope you can attend this session if you have not already participated in a Fall 2024 session.
