On behalf of the RSS, I welcome and invite you and your friends to our many recreational programs, services and facilities. These opportunities exist through the support of ideas and energy of past SIUC students working together with the campus to constantly grow and develop healthier and more productive individuals. I encourage you to take advantage of the variety of opportunities that are unique to the campus and region. Find something you like to do - learn to enjoy it for a lifetime and find someone to do it with you. Many of us need a friend to help motivate us to get off the couch, away from the video games and experience the wonders of recreation! Our staff is eager to serve you and make your day a little brighter.
