In alignment with UIS’ commitment to creating a diverse and inclusive environment, the Access & Equity Office is taking steps to help the campus community integrate inclusive practices into the search and hiring processes.

It has been a busy summer in our classrooms - we have successfully converted 34 classrooms to be hyflex! Our classroom technology refresh project has also involved installing annotating monitors, second monitors, bring-your-own-device capabilities, document cameras, and easy-to-use control units to manage the technology. 

We are inviting all faculty who haven't yet seen the upgraded classrooms to join us Tuesday, August 22 at 11:30am in UHB 1007 for a tour!
