Around Town

There are numerous restaurants and/or activities to do off campus. The life on campus isn't too exciting. Student Life does a nice job of trying to provide activities for students to participate in.

This is my first semester here, so I haven't gotten out as much.

You can easily head into town for some fun, or there are plenty of activities on campus to keep everyone busy. Also the student lounge has pool tables and video games.

The Student Lounge often has fun things going on. There are a good amount of things to do. There are a lot of events, so there is always something to do.

Go to the on-campus events and participate in activities.

Off campus fun

There are many opportunities to have fun on campus. There are always events happening at nights and on weekends as well as being in the heart of the Springfield community there is always downtown.

Every year their is a week called Springfest. This is the one event on campus you do not want to miss! You create a team and each day of the week you compete in a contest. Events include: trivia night, scavenger hunt, chant contest, community service day, spaghetti dinner, and sports day.

UIS has many activities for students.

Students usually go Stars Lounge to hang out, chill, study, and play video games and board games.
