Dear  UIS  Community  —



Welcome  to  the  start  of  the  fall  semester.  Today  marks  the  55th  first  day  of  classes  since  this  university  welcomed  its  first  students  in  1970.  It  is  a  moment  to  celebrate  our  history  and  look  ahead  to  the  future  we  are  continuing  to  build  together.&nbsp;</div>

        <div  class="newsletter-date"></div>
        <div  class="newsletter-txt">Whether  you’re  a  first-year  or  transfer  student,  arriving  at  UIS  as  a  self-proclaimed  introvert  can  be  both  exciting  and  a  little  nerve-wracking.  As  one  of  our  newest  Prairie  Stars,  you’ll  be  navigating  new  surroundings  and  routines  while  protecting  your  social  battery.  But  getting  involved  on  campus  doesn’t  have  to  mean  plunging  into  big  crowds  or  chatting  with  everyone  you  meet.  You  can  find  ways  to  connect  that  match  your  personality,  interests  and  pace.</div>

        <div  class="newsletter-txt">Dear  Prairie  Star  Nation,
 
The  excitement  on  campus  has  already  reached  a  new  level.  This  past  Saturday,  nearly  120  student-athletes  returned  to  launch  our  fall  seasons  in  volleyball,  men's  and  women's  soccer,  and  men's  and  women's  cross  country.
 
After  a  quiet  summer,  it's  refreshing  to  feel  the  energy,  passion,  and  spirit  of  our  student-athletes  back  on  campus.  They  are  an  exceptional  group,  and  spending  time  with  them—no  matter  how  long  my  to-do  list  in  the  office  may  be—is  always  a  highlight.
