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 UIS Community:

Following the Public Affairs Center's (PAC) recent closure, Facilities & Services is happy to share that the building has resumed operations for campus units to transition back to their office locations as of Monday, June 8. Restrooms in Tower 3 are in service. Restrooms in Towers 1 and 2 will remain unavailable until further notice.

Campus Announcements ended on Friday, May 29, at 8:59 a.m. Submissions are no longer being accepted.

Beginning this summer, the Chancellor’s Newsletter will be distributed by the Department of Strategic Communication rather than directly from the Chancellor.

Also, to better reflect the reduced volume of campus updates during the non-academic year, the newsletter will move to a monthly schedule for June and July.

The summer publication dates are:

• Monday, June 8
• Monday, July 6

The newsletter will resume its regular bi-weekly publication schedule beginning Monday, Aug. 3.
