With the start of the semester upon us, we wanted to remind you of the many tools and resources that are available to support you and your students.

On Wednesday, August 20, parking Lot I-North and Lot I-South will be closed to campus for parking due to new student move in.

Thank you for your cooperation as we welcome new and returning students to campus.

Sincerely,

If you could switch jobs with anyone at UIS, who would it be and why?

I would like to be the person who paints the lines on the sports fields. The robot line painter is fascinating. I took several years of drafting/mechanical drawing in high school in the days before AutoCAD. Precision, accuracy and consistency are a must in certain situations. In years past, I had to help paint the lacrosse field for my daughter's team at Centennial Park by hand. The other parent I was working with did not have the same appreciation for accuracy as I.

The August 2025 edition of the F&S Newsletter highlights progress on campus construction and maintenance projects, along with operational updates for parking, classroom scheduling, and motor pool.
