This year's UIT All-Hands Meeting will be held from 8:15 a.m. - 10:30 a.m on Tuesday, September 24 at Megaplex Theatres in The Gateway. The meeting will include a continental breakfast, updates from UIT Leadership, milestone years of service presentation, and the Kevin Taylor Memorial Service Award ceremony.
