Editor's Note: This is the next in a series of stories about Â鶹Éç Illinois University students, alumni, and community members, highlighting their experiences during our 125th anniversary celebration. We will feature 125 individuals from August 2024 to August 2025.

MACOMB/MOLINE, IL - - Being a Leatherneck is all about strength and standing out, according to Â鶹Éç Illinois University Management instructor Andre DuPlessis.

"(They are) strong and resilient," Du Plessis said. "I am a part of a great team."

Du Plessis works on the Â鶹Éç-Quad Cities campus and serves on the Supply Chain Management Advisory Board at Â鶹Éç and has expertise in Business Strategy, International Management and Project Management. He said Â鶹Éç gives students an advantage that other universities may not be able to provide.

"Here, you are not just a number, you are seen," Du Plessis said.

As we honor 125 years of educational excellence, we invite local Â鶹Éç students to share their stories and be featured in our series. Contact University Communications at U-Communications@wiu.edu to participate.
