Join us in celebrating Hispanic-Latino Heritage Month through Oct. 14 with guest speakers, festivals, community service, an immigration simulation and much more. The theme is "A History of Serving Our Nation.”

Experience SIU

Enjoy our beautiful campus and all it has to offer. It’s an inclusive place where groundbreaking research, hands-on learning, hundreds of student organizations, a sustainability commitment and opportunities to enjoy great sports, music and theater intersect. #ThisIsSIU

Fostering success

Our new First Saluki Center is a one-stop spot where first-generation students easily access the help, resources, mentorship and peer support they need to succeed.

This is SIU at 150

Thanks to over 26,000 donors, our 3-year Forever SIU campaign has surpassed its goal, raising $75.3 million with 7 months to go. Salukis of today and tomorrow are the grateful beneficiaries. Almost $40 million will support scholarships; most of the rest is for academic programs.

Saluki Legacy

Hannah Colbrook is the 2019 Student Employee of the Year for SIU and the entire state of Illinois. She’s also the 10th Saluki in her family. For three generations, they’ve experienced the SIU difference. You can, too.
