When one thinks of enrolling in a graduate degree program, they most likely don’t picture themselves getting involved in extracurricular activities. It’s a common perception that graduate students attend evening classes, work either full or part time, possibly have a family to care for, are generally detached from the campus community, or only visit campus to attend classes.

As we are about to wind down the semester and students look forward to graduation, many students are still contemplating going to graduate school, taking some time off, traveling abroad or taking a new job or their first career-oriented job!
This month college students at UIS and across the State will be graduating. And unlike the past two COVID Years, most will celebrate a “normal” and “in person” graduation ceremony. To all our College graduates, UIS graduates, and graduates everywhere – congratulations!
