Dear Colleagues,

In recent years, faculty and staff in the Urbana campus community have 
faced many challenges together.  We have weathered budget cuts and staff 
reductions, and over the past year, many employees all across the campus 
have worked late nights and early mornings - far beyond anything that we 
have the right to ask of them - because they are devoted to seeing this 
institution succeed at all levels.

As a way of saying thank you for your conscientious dedication, I would 
like to offer each of you two tickets to the Illini football game on Sept 
18 against the Western Michigan Broncos.

Your complimentary tickets will be available at the Athletic Ticket Box 
Office at the Assembly Hall, and you may pick them up on Tuesday, 
Wednesday, or Thursday anytime from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.  You must show your 
staff ID, and you must get your tickets in person.

Please understand that these tickets may not be resold.  The many faculty 
and staff who are season-ticket holders are also invited to participate.

Whether or not you are able to join us, please accept my gratitude for 
your dedication and pride in this institution and in your work.  You have 
pulled together and sacrificed under difficult circumstances, and we are 
in your debt.  You are the real strength of our institution.

Best,

Richard Herman
Interim Chancellor
