"From the second I walked onto this campus, EIU felt like home. I REALLY struggled with the fact that I'd be leaving my brother and my parents, and wanted nothing more than a place that felt like home. With the incredible staff we met along the way, the top-notch broadcasting facilities offered here, AND the impressive residential hall spaces- coming here to EIU was a no-brainer, and the best decision I ever made."Matthew PosnerClass of 2026, Broadcast Journalism major
