Message from President Killeen: To fall, and beginning
To our students, faculty and staff across the University of Ăĺ±±˝űµŘ System:
By now all of you are well into one of my favorite rituals of every academic year – beginning!
And with that beginning, our campuses open and fill with bright minds, big ideas, and grand hopes and dreams.
Our core mission – the pursuit of knowledge, the creation of opportunity, the betterment of society through research and discovery – is renewed, made fresh and vital with our return each August.
We each have vital parts to play, and opportunities ahead.

Extreme Heat & Energy Conservation
Dear UIS Campus Community,
As we continue to experience extreme heat this week, City Water, Light & Power (CWLP) has issued a Maximum Generation Warning. This is due to the increased demand for electricity and a potential energy supply shortage from the Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO), the regional electric grid operator for the central United States.
