Living on campus at UIS is more than just having a place to sleep, it’s about being in the heart of campus life. From my first days as a freshman to my time as a graduate student, the convenience of being just minutes away from everything has made life at UIS not only more manageable but genuinely enjoyable. As a graduate student-athlete, my schedule is often jam packed with classes, work and soccer. Being on campus means I’m never more than a five minute walk from where I need to be, which saves me the stress of a commute and allows me to maximize my time. 

The Prepare for Illinois’ Future program powered by Kaplan’s All Access License will continue, ensuring ongoing support for students across Illinois!

Our partners with Kaplan are thrilled that UIS students have continued access to industry-leading courses. Encourage students to not miss out on this opportunity! They can enroll in one of the 40+ courses that will help secure their path to success in graduate school and beyond UIS.

Join us for the next installment of the Chancellor’s Thinkers Series as we continue a year of dialogue, reflection, and discovery.

received almost a hundred submissions. If you’re still looking for book ideas, don’t
worry, as many of our participants have been kind enough to give us
recommendations!

Here are some of the books that were submitted this past month:
