DUNS Number will change to Unique Entity ID (UEI). Contracts, grant applications, and other external documents will begin requesting the UIS ‘UEI’ instead of the DUNS number, beginning April 4, 2022. UIS UEIs are available on the ORSP webpage: https://www.uis.edu/research/sponsored-programs/pre-award/rates-fa/. Just like the DUNS number, there is a separate UEI for State of Illinois grants and contracts.

Volunteers needed for 2022 Commencement
Commencement time is quickly approaching and, once again, I am looking for volunteers to help us make this year’s Commencement memorable for our students. We are heading back down to the BOS Center for two ceremonies this year at 12:30 p.m. and 5:30 p.m. so we are going to need a bit of additional help, more so then we have needed in the last two years. We have an excited class of graduates, looking forward to celebrating with their family and friends.
