About Us

As the officially unit-sponsored student organization for the Division of Exploratory Studies, we proudly serve as the primary student group supporting undecided, undeclared, and exploring students. Our mission is to build pride, confidence, and a strong sense of belonging by fostering peer-to-peer connections and leading inclusive, community-centered programming. In close collaboration with the EXP office, we actively support, promote, and participate in the Division’s signature events—including the annual College Welcome, Welcome Week activities, the Majors and Minors Fair, I Explore Week, Illini Fest, and more. Our work is fully aligned with the Division’s goals: rather than offering separate academic or professional programming, we focus on encouraging students to engage with official unit resources while centering our efforts on creating informal, student-led spaces for connection and community beyond formal events.
