UIS is a bit of a different case, because while the institution has been around since 1969, they were a two year upper-division school (juniors and seniors only) only within the last 10-15 years or so. The campus culture up until within the last 10 years has been one aimed at non-traditional students, so that would also explain the lack of a greek system on campus.
FWIW, APO did try to start a chapter there in the 1980s, when the school was called Sangamon State University and still a 2-year upper division school, but the group never made it. The current Petitioning Group at UIS either just submitted their chartering application or will be very soon.

Oh certainly as primarily a "senior" college it is not surprising it didn't have a greek system, however since it has been a full four year institution for a a while now I thought I'd toss them out there. And as I said, I wasn't sure how far along their group was in the process.
