The Illini Union draws together all members of the UI community. It is the shared possession of students, faculty and staff members, alumni and guests. Students who create programs and activities on behalf of the Illini Union Board complement their education with experience in group process, ethics, leadership, volunteerism and social responsibility. Students who attend the programs and participate in the activities also enrich their education with the learning, growth and entertainment such events offer.
