New office nameplate option includes preferred pronouns
We are pleased to announce that pronouns can now be included on nameplates for faculty and staff. Signage standards have been amended to include pronouns below the name - see the photo at the right for a sample nameplate appearance.
All other standards remain in place, including the preclusion of professional designations, certifications, name prefixes, etc. in order to maintain adequate font size for readability and a consistent image campus-wide.

Dear UIS Colleagues:
New Student Orientation is in full swing, and if you are on campus this summer, I hope you get a chance to get outdoors to enjoy our beautiful grounds. We’re so proud of UIS Baseball, taking us further in the playoffs than ever before, although it didn’t end as we had hoped. Congrats to the team and coaches for this milestone in our university history!
