Fire up for UIC Homecoming! UIC students, faculty, staff, and alumni are invited to UIC Flames Homecoming 2022, that time of the year where we all come together to celebrate the past, present, and future of UIC.

We hope that you will be able to join us for at least one of the events happening during the week! Show us how much fun you are having at the events by tagging us on social media and using hashtag #UICHOCO.
