UIC has a hidden gem of a green space – but it is under-utilized due to limited seating, accessibility, and stormwater flooding issues. Help realize our vision of a sustainable, revitalized campus to build a stormwater-reducing patio, increase biodiversity with plants, and add accessible seating for our students at this urban serving research university . A student-led project started to enhance student life and increase campus belonging and engagement, but there’s a long way to go.
