The university community is invited to attend an all-campus town hall meeting from 2-3 p.m. Tuesday in the Holmes Student Center, Regency Room.

Alan Phillips, vice president of Administration and Finance, will join NIU President Doug Baker in discussing the state budget impasse and its impact on the university, according to an NIU news release.
