New State Budget Provides Continued Support For Higher Education

To the members of the University of Illinois System community,

I’m pleased to report that the Illinois General Assembly has approved and Gov. JB Pritzker has signed a state budget for the fiscal year that begins July 1. The spending plan includes a 1% increase in general operating support for the U of I System and other public universities.

It provides a $748.7 million operating budget for the U of I System in FY 2027.

Greetings Campus Community,

The contractor will be working on the building's main air handlers this week as part of the final phase of the environmental controls upgrade.

During this work, air supply throughout the building will be reduced, and occupants may notice warmer temperatures and higher humidity levels than usual for the remainder of this week.

Thank you for your understanding and patience as we complete this important upgrade to building controls.

Dear members of the University of Illinois System community,

I am writing to share an important update on the search for the next president of the U of I System.

The Search Committee met for the first time today to begin its work identifying the next president of the U of I System — a successor to President Tim Killeen, who concludes his distinguished tenure on June 30, 2027. The committee is charged with leading a thorough, inclusive national search worthy of the system that President Killeen and all of you have helped build.
