At its regular meeting Monday, several members of the council said the plan was moving too quickly. Ward 7 Councilmember Diane Marlin said it was “troubling” that the University was pushing for the turbines without involving the city of Urbana. “I support alternative energy sources, such as wind and solar power, as a commitment to the future,” she added. “However, I’m also committed to the present, where it’s our responsibility to protect the interests of Urbana’s residents and businesses and to mitigate the impact of these enormous structures.” The 40­foot turbines will stand along Philo Road and will provide at least 1.5 megawatts of power exclusively for the University.

    Welcome! The Champaign-Urbana Streator-Pontiac JATC is Thank You For Celebrating Proud to partner with IBEW Local 601. 100 Years With Us The Committee, Instructors and fine Apprentices of the past and present congratulate IBEW Local 601 for 100 years of service. I would like to thank all of the many special members and friends helping IBEW Local 601 celebrate its first 100 years of existence along with us. Joint Apprenticeship It is with great pride that I have served the last nine years as Business and Training Committee Manager of IBEW Local 601. During these nine years, Local 601 had a couple of its best years of employment in 2007 and 2008, during which time there were five tower cranes dotting the Champaign- Urbana skyline; we also were fortunate to have over 200 traveling brothers and sisters helping to man the work. Those numbers were rivaled with the amount of workers who helped build the LaSalle Nuclear Station. We have also had some of the leanest times with the downturn of the economy. During this time period, there weren’t many locals that had employment. As we move into the next century for IBEW Local 601, we’ll rely on the younger generation to take the wheel to help maintain our market share. This will surely be one of the most important challenges they will face. With right-to-work surrounding us and the political battles we encounter in Springfield IBEW Representatives NECA Representatives and our nation’s capitol, we’ll need to stand united to face and conquer these battles.

They also identify several actions for the next one - two years to address each goal. The City Council Goals provide direction in determining how limited fi nancial and staff resources are allocated. Staff prepares implementation plans for each City Council Goal Action, and written evaluations are conducted periodically to measure progress on each.

  • History of the University of Illinois Name
    History of the name of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Names changes of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. University of Illinois Archives William J. Maher and Bryan Whitledge August, 2011 Illinois Industrial University and the Change to the University of Illinois The University of Illinois began in 1867 as the Illinois Industrial University, a name with roots in the philosophy of higher education that led to the creation of land-grant universities. In an October 4, 1866 statement Jonathan Baldwin Turner, a long-time advocate of providing land- grants to states, for the purpose of raising funds to establish public universities, referred to institutions established under the 1862 Morrill Act as ‘Industrial Universities’ (University of Illinois Archives, Record Series 1/1/802, First Report, 1868, p. vii). On January 25, 1867 the Illinois General Assembly enacted legislation regarding the “location of the Industrial University” (1/1/802,First Report, 1868, p. 4). On Feb 28, 1867 the state Assembly enacted into law “An Act to provide for the organization and maintenance of the Illinois Industrial University” (1/1/802, First Report, 1868, p. 5). By the late 1870s, the reference to the term “Industrial” began to encounter opposition. Nationally, the sentiment against modifiers in the naming of land-grand institutions was shared by many of the “agricultural” universities that had also been created following the Morrill Act. In addition, the term “industrial,” which was used by Illinois and one other institution was seen locally an “even greater handicap than ‘agricultural’” because it was seen as “either a reformatory or charitable institution in which compulsory manual labor figured prominently”(Solberg, The University of Illinois, 1867-94, p.

  • The History, Design, and Growth of the University of Illinois Library
    A Great Library on the Prairie: The History, Design, and Growth of the University of Illinois Library Brock Peoples Abstract The University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign Library stands today as one of the largest publicly funded libraries in the United States, pro- viding information access for research and discovery to over 50,000 students, faculty, and staff as well as to members of the community at large. The library developed and grew as the university itself grew, becoming an architectural manifestation of those it serves. Originally designed by a team of University leaders, librarians, and architects for the pedagogies and information needs of the early twentieth century, the main library building, a neo-Georgian structure dating from 1926, supplemented by an imaginatively designed adjacent underground library for undergraduates in the late 1960s, has adapted to emerg- ing information technologies and patron use through additions and changes in service models over the decades, ensuring its continuing relevancy to its patrons and its place as the heart of the university. The March Toward One Million Volumes: The Genesis of the University of Illinois Library An article headlined “Growth of University Demands New Library,” ap- pearing in the Urbana Daily Courier on January 10, 1916, describes the issue at hand: “An institution with the scope of work, the number of stu- dents and number of faculty members equal to that of the University of Il- linois should have a library of at least one million volumes as the nucleus of a working collection of a comprehensive university collection.” This stood in contrast to the situation that faced the university’s main library facility at the time, Library Hall (now Altgeld Hall, named after John P.
