The Office of Human Resources is launching a Satisfaction Survey and we need your help! This brief survey aims to measure experiences, perceptions, and interactions with our office. We hope to gain valuable information from this survey to foster positive experiences with our campus community. This survey is being distributed to Civil Service, Academic Professionals, and Faculty employees at UIS. The survey will close at noon on February 17, 2026. Upon opening the survey, UIS authentication will be requested, however all responses will remain anonymous.
As part of our All Access partnership with Kaplan, we are hosting a series of exclusive professional development sessions specifically for faculty and staff this semester. These opportunities are designed to provide you with the opportunity to learn more about specific topics close to the work you are already doing and how Kaplan All Access can help you reach your goals for your students intentionally as well.
Please see the schedule below and join us for the sessions that align with your department’s/team. Please click on the title to register to attend.
Phone Service Outage: Receiving Calls from Outside UIS
We are currently experiencing a hardware failure that is affecting campus phone service. At this time, outgoing calls and internal office‑to‑office calls are functioning normally. However, we are unable to receive incoming calls from outside UIS.
Replacement hardware is scheduled to arrive tomorrow morning. We will send a follow‑up email once full phone service has been restored.

Dear Campus Community,
We are writing to inform you that the elevator on the library side of Brookens is permanently out of service due to mechanical issues that cannot be repaired.
The classroom-side elevator is available for use.
Your patience and understanding are appreciated.
