Although we miss you in Seattle, we are proud UofI alums who are happy you are leading our alma mater. We enjoyed meeting you at the Illini Alum gathering in Seattle and wish you a Happy New Year in Champaign/Urbana!
Oh simpler times filled with fond memories and the unabashed fervor of youth; this is what I think of when I think of UIUC. Snow covered quad picture looks nice. I remember we had a snow day when I was there. Anyone else there for that?
It's the traditions that make a university special. Otherwise, it's just another overpriced educational institution. Stop trying to destroy what makes this university unique.
Nice holiday greeting! The Chief is the tradition of Illinois! Always in our memories...

Good timing receiving this today. My senior in high school is waiting with bated breath until the acceptance announcement at 5:00 p.m. today.

They all got it wrong. The correct answer was "cold".

you know, out of all of the hokey Illinois promotional materials i've seen, this one is the most real. I like it.

@DonkeyLunch That's what I would have said if they asked me. But "Tradition" covers that also.
