Welcome back to campus!

Campus life will look a little different this fall, but we have your safety in mind. 

View the latest updates on our Fall 2020 Plan and the Saluki Safety policies.

Visit the iconic new sculpture featuring three running Salukis – representing past, present and future students. Created in celebration of our 150th anniversary, the project was funded by private donations and initiated by the SIU Alumni Association.
