As UIS deals with a budget deficit, campus unions call out “a lack of investment” – NPR Illinois
The University of Illinois Springfield lists total revenue available at $57.8 million. That includes state support, along with tuition and fees. But when expenditures are factored, the campus deficit sits at an estimated $8.8 million. UIS has also struggled to grow enrollment. The number of students dropped from a high of 5,431 in 2014 to below 4,000.
