Illinois State University is gearing up for one of its annual fall traditions: Family Weekend. Set to take place on September 13-15, 2024, this event invites families and supporters to campus to enjoy various activities and create lasting memories with their Redbird.
Redbirds returned to campus for the first week of the fall semester. Whether it’s finding a new study spot, catching up with friends in between classes, or participating in back-to-school events, our Birds didn’t waste any time diving back into campus life following quieter summer months.
Staff, faculty students, and the community worked together to make Illinois State University our newest Redbirds’ new home away from home during this year’s Welcome Week and Move-In.
Illinois State University has a proud history of alumni committed to community service, and two alums, Joe Conte ’24 and Bill Darrow ’79, continue this tradition as Move-In Curb Bird volunteers.
Career Services invites alumni to share career experiences with Redbird students at career programs.
