For Immediate Release
University Park, IL, September 21, 2007 - Secretary of State Jesse White’s traveling multi-service center will be visiting Governors State University on October 2, 2007, February 5, 2008, and May 6, 2008. The center will be located in the Hall of Governors, from 2 to 7 p.m. on each day.
Services available at the mobile service unit include driver’s license renewal, replacement, and corrections; State I.D. card renewal, replacement, and corrections; vehicle sticker sales; and organ/tissue donor information. In addition, vision tests and the written driver’s license test can be taken. No driving tests will be given. The services provided are available to all qualified Illinois residents.
The program was originally intended to provide services for smaller, more remote communities. In recent years, it has proven effective in reaching large numbers of Illinois residents on university campuses.
"Because so many of our students are busy with school, work, and family commitments, we thought it would be a great service to bring the mobile unit to campus,” said Dr. Sherilyn Poole, Associate Vice President for Student Affairs and Dean of Students at Governors State University.
“The partnership between the Secretary of State’s Office and Governors State University is a great example of how my office can work with public and private institutions to make theses transactions more convenient,” said Secretary of State Jesse White.
Governors State University is located at 1 University Parkway, University Park, Illinois. For information, visit www.cyberdriveillinois.com.
