Spirit of Illinois (view exhibit)

The spirit of Illinois is alive and well on this campus. It's rich history of learning and school pride is captured in the lens of each student. You can see it within the historical architecture of each building. You can hear it whenever you take a stroll through the Quad. It is felt and experienced in different ways in every season.

Spirit of Illinois takes you on a journey across campus, providing a new perspective from which to see our colorful and familiar surroundings.

Featured Artists:
Leah Guadagncli, Alexis Kadonsky, Kamil Kecki, John Menchaca, Julie Rosen
