As a student, I am the focus of her goals and objectives. As an alumnus, I will represent the result of her mission and the embodiment of her spirit in the world. Because I am the emerging essence of my institution, I will strive to enhance this special relationship between student, alumni and others so that the heritage of my Alma Mater will always be a part of my life - for the present as I follow my dreams and after graduation as I make them come true.
Traditions are an important part of college life.
They give a university its character, make it more fun, and help to create a sense of unity between past, present, and future students. The Student Alumni League is officially sponsored by the University of Illinois Alumni Association. It is important to note that the UIC Student Alumni League owes a debt of gratitude to the members of the UIUC Student Alumni Association for their generous assistance and support during this formation process. Four of those attendees returned full of enthusiasm and energy, and became the nucleus of the organization. Of the students who attended the regional conference, those who took an active role in developing the new SAL were Tony Schmidt, Dan Clodfelter, and Ed Klass.
