The mission of the office of the Vice Chancellor of Student Affairs is to create a student body that reflects the diversity of Illinois, facilitate graduation through special programs and services, and establish a positive and diverse learning environment that is necessary to expand student's lives. The purpose of campus programs is to be a resource for cultural, educational, social, and recreational programs. This is accomplished through student organizations and events.
