Get Involved

The University Program Board (UPB) is your source for campus activities!

If you're ready to head backstage, then consider joining UPB. Being a member of UPB not only gives you a voice on what activities are brought to campus; it also teaches you skills that you can apply regardless of where your career goals lie.

UPB is a well-established and award-winning Registered Student Organization (RSO) with a lot of spunk, enthusiasm, and passion for programming at Illinois State University and in the surrounding community.
