The Desert Illini Club is an organization for alumni and friends of the University of Illinois. It serves the alumni, the University, and the Desert communities by sponsoring a variety of sports, social, cultural and service events.

The Desert Illini Club is a great way to renew old friendships and to make new ones. Our membership is drawn from desert area of Southern California--from Riverside and San Bernardino east to the Arizona border. Some of the major cities in our region include Palm Springs, Palm Desert, Rancho Mirage, La Quinta and Indio.

Membership in the club is open to alumni, their spouses, and friends of the University of Illinois. Dues are $25 per year and entitle you special mailings about our events and a discount at certain events. You can fill out the membership application on-line.
