Student Senate and Finance Committee dedicated themselves to a thorough review of funding requests to ensure that final allocations best met the needs of the student body. Student Senate Bill 2017-145 contains Line-Item allocations, and Student Senate Bill 2017-105 contains Block Allocations made to all organizations. Additionally, Student Senate Bill 2017- 145 outlines the required campus fees. While Student Senate was unfortunately unable to allocate funds for every request received, I am confident that the utmost consideration was given to all entities requesting funding. I would like to especially thank the following individuals: Finance Committee Chair Taylor Zabel, Student Senate Treasurer Allyssa Castilleja, and Student Senate Assistant Treasurer Whit Collins for their efforts in preparing and facilitating this budget process; adviser Aaron Quisenberry for his ongoing commitment to the review process and the Student Senate as a whole; and the Finance Committee and Fee Review Subcommittee members for devoting their time to ensure a responsible allocation of funds.

When you ask someone what they think of when discussing what a nurse looks like, a majority of people would picture a woman. Over the years the profession is seeing an increasing amount of men deciding to break this stereotype. Being a male, I can say that the reason I chose to pursue a degree/career in nursing is not to break this stereotype but instead, I chose this profession because it allows me the opportunity to help others when they need help the most.

    ILLINOIS STATE UNIVERSITY OARD OF B TRUSTEES Report No. 2019.07/1100.01 Campus Master Plan Update Executive Summary Illinois State University values strategic planning. Its culture is infiltrated with plans stemming from all facets of the institution, all integrated with the University’s strategic plan, Educate•Connect•Elevate: Illinois State—The Strategic Plan for Illinois’ First Public University 2018-2023. The current campus master plan, Master Plan 2010- 2030: Looking to the Future, was approved by the Board of Trustees in February 2011. It reflects a long-range plan for the physical development of Illinois State University in its future size, form, function, character, image, and environment. Master Plan 2010-2030 includes 67 recommended actions spanning from instruction, research, and academic support; campus life; administration; Intercollegiate Athletics and recreation facilities; and general campus improvements. Many actions have advanced and are noted in the Master Plan 2010-2030 Progress Report section of the Master Plan Update 2010- 2030. Master Plan 2010-2030 called for a 10-year review and update in order to reflect the current campus, the State of Illinois, and overall higher education environments. In September 2018, President Larry Dietz appointed and charged the Master Plan Update Steering Team to develop an update to the Master Plan 2010-2030: Looking to the Future that considers the realities of operating as a public university in the State of Illinois in lean financial times. The Master Plan Update Steering Team consulted widely with students, faculty, staff, alumni, community members, and annuitants to assist in determining strategic focus areas that include current and new recommended actions that reflect the University’s priorities for the duration of the life of Master Plan 2010-2030.
