Wilkin, who has served as the Juanita J. Iand Robert E. Simpson Dean of Libraries and University Librarian since 2013, began his new role on February 18. Chancellor Jones said, “Dean Wilkin’s seamless combination of a thoughtful, balanced demeanor along with the practical experience and working knowledge of academic operations established him as the right person for the position at this critical time.” “I’ve been with our Library now for more than three years. I can’t say this enough—I’m extremely proud to be here. It is hard to be in this profession and not have a deep admiration for the Library at Illinois. Students and faculty, the community, and researchers around the world depend on our services and collections. I’ve always been grateful to work alongside you to advance the Library’s mission,” Wilkin expressed to staff. “I am honored to serve the campus in this temporary role, but I L. Brian Stauffer made it clear that I intend to return to the Library as soon as the search for a permanent provost is completed and the successful candidate can begin.” A national search for a permanent provost is underway. Chancellor Jones hopes to select a final candidate this fall. At that time, Wilkin will return to lead the Library.

Although it is not an exhaustive list of such policies, it is the most expansive list available in a single document. It is divided into three articles: Article 1 (Student Rights and Responsibilities) Article 2 (General Policies and Regulations) Article 3 (Academic Policies and Regulations) Unless otherwise noted, the rules stated in this Student Code apply to all undergraduate, graduate, and professional students enrolled at the university. All students are expected to review this document, especially Article 1, prior to attending classes so that they may begin their work at Illinois with knowledge both of their rights as students and of their responsibilities as members of the academic community. A printed booklet containing only Article 1 is also available in the Office of the Dean of Students. The most current version of the Student Code is always available online at studentcode.illinois. edu.
