Our Creed
We believe that as students of Southern
Illinois University, we have a special relationship with our Alma Mater
that represents a lifetime of commitment in the fulfillment of our
dreams and aspirations. As students, we are the focus of her goals
and objectives. As alumni, we will represent the result of her mission
and the embodiment of her spirit in the world. What she is, we are;
what she becomes, we become. Because we are the emerging essence of
our institution, we will strive to enhance this special relationship
between students, alumni, and others so that the heritage of our Alma
Mater will always be a part of our lives for the present as we follow
our dreams, and after graduation as we make them come true.
