1. I Looked Up ISU Earlier Today

They aren't requiring it at their school, even for staff. They're recommending it. At least as of June 3.

Then there's this from May 5:

Illinois State University’s student government has endorsed the idea of requiring students to be vaccinated for COVID-19 if they want to attend classes next fall.

With only one “no” vote, the Student Government Association recently endorsed the resolution in support of mandatory vaccination for those physically attending classes in the fall, said Grant Chassy, who wrote and sponsored the measure.


So, a month before the student government voted to require a mandate, but administration overruled.

The college where I went for undergrad is requiring it. (Mid-size private school in Chicago market). Same with my wife's alma mater.

I haven't found specifics for NIU, EIU, WIU, or GSU yet.
