The Public Affairs Reporting program is looking for former students to assist with two events happening at and around UIS in the months to come.

1. On April 20 at 3 p.m., the UIS School of Communication and Media (the academic unit that includes PAR) is hosting an alumni panel discussion to highlight what alumni are doing with their degrees. This opportunity is open to PAR alums who are journalists OR have related careers, like PR or lobbying. The event is at UIS.

We wanted to remind you that this weekend (Saturday, February 11 and Sunday, February 12, 2023), AITS will be conducting a maintenance event on our production data center which necessitates Banner and related applications to be unavailable during two periods of time. On both Saturday and Sunday of the upcoming weekend, services will be unavailable starting at 6:00 AM each morning and will be available again by 6:00 PM each evening.

UIS Campus Senate will meet on Friday, February 10, 10:00 AM-12:00 PM in PAC C/D.

The agenda can be found here: https://uofi.box.com/s/lar5pdgs6c0exbg4qzal8ui63jwnu02m

Campus Senate meetings are open to all who are interested in attending any part or all of a meeting. Please contact the Senate Chair or any member of Senate Executive Committee if you have issues you would like to bring to the attention of Campus Senate.
