BUDGET DETAIL…………………….…………………… 202-334 June 24, 2020 Members of the Board of Trustees and Citizens of Joliet Junior College, Illinois Community College District 525: During the final stages of this budget development, the Coronavirus pandemic began and introduced health, financial, and operating issues that the world—including our seven-county community college district—had never witnessed or experienced. With no blueprint to follow and information changing daily, I am proud of the foundation we have built to support the college and the work we will continue to do as we enter FY21 to drive JJC into its 120th year. Our budget is developed each year in support of JJC’s mission to inspire learning, strengthen communities and transform lives. To present a balanced operating budget for the 48th consecutive year, the following planning goals were employed: • Support innovation in new programming and expanded resources through proactive financial planning • Maintain emphasis on student success • Address potential impact of the state of Illinois on the college’s budget; and • Keep tuition and health care costs flat. The total operating budget for FY21 is $99.53 million and I am proud to share that there is no increase in tuition or in health care costs. Three primary sources of operating revenue are available to the college: tuition, state funding and property taxes. These three sources make up 98% of the operating revenues. The remaining sources include interest, facility rentals and federal sources. Since 2000, the state’s share of the college’s operating budget has decreased nearly 10%, from 18.7% to a projected 8.54% in FY21. We actively monitor the status of these fund sources, and proactively work to adjust expenditures to ensure financial stability. This includes changes in class sizes, program offerings and staffing levels. While much seems unknown at this point, I want to reemphasize the critical role community colleges play to support the changing needs of the local economy and workforce, which has been impacted significantly by the pandemic. As such, we will continue to develop our new respiratory technician allied health program and invest in student resources, including advising, program pathways, and outreach to ensure retention and completion. JJC is the first community college in the nation—we have weathered many storms and we will weather this one. We have continued to drive innovation in the classroom and in our support services. We do not rest in tradition or history, we drive innovation and support your success. Sincerely, Judy Mitchell, Ed.D. President i HISTORY OF JOLIET JUNIOR COLLEGE HISTORICAL BACKGROUND Joliet Junior College, the nation’s first public community college, offers pre-baccalaureate programs for students planning to transfer to a four-year university. A comprehensive community college, JJC provides occupational education leading directly to employment, adult education and literacy programs, workforce development services, and student support services. JJC’s district, Illinois Community College District 525, is one of 40 community college districts governed by the Illinois Community College Board (ICCB) under the Illinois Board of Higher Education. The ICCB was created by the General Assembly under the provisions of the Illinois Public Junior College Act of 1965. Its primary responsibilities are to coordinate the educational programs offered through the community college system, to allocate state funding for capital expansion and to act on curriculum changes proposed by individual community colleges. JJC is directly governed by a seven-member Board of Trustees, all of whom are elected from within the district for six-year terms. A student representative, nominated by staff or faculty, is a non-voting member of the board. The officers of the board are chairman, vice chairman and secretary, all of whom are elected by their peers for a two-year term. JJC is the nation’s first public community college, established in 1901. J. Stanley Brown (shown on the left), superintendent of Joliet Township High School, and William Rainey Harper (shown on the right), president of the University of Chicago, founded JJC in 1901 as an experimental postgraduate high school program. The college’s initial enrollment was six students; today, JJC serves more than 35,000 students in credit and noncredit courses. Brown and Harper’s innovation created a junior college that academically paralleled the first two years of a four-year college or university. It was designed to accommodate students who desired to remain within the community yet still pursue a college education. Within a few years, the concept of “community” had grown to include students outside the existing high school district. 1 By December 1902, the Board of Trustees officially sanctioned the program and made postgraduate high school courses available tuition-free. In 1916, the Board of Trustees officially named the post-high school program Joliet Junior College. The following year, the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools accredited the college, and the State Examining Board approved selected courses for teacher certification. Enrollment at the time numbered 82 students. In the years that followed, JJC responded positively and creatively to the pressures of a world war, depression and rapid social change. The college met the challenge of a growing technological society in the 1920s and 1930s by expanding the curriculum to include programs in business and industrial training. The return of war veterans in the 1940s and 1950s prompted further curriculum development in the area of two-year occupational programs. Both the transfer and occupational divisions of the college grew at a steady pace. In 1965, the Illinois Legislature enacted the Illinois Junior College Act, creating specific districts served by various community colleges. JJC was to serve people in parts of seven counties in northern Illinois. By 1967, college enrollment approached 4,000 students. In February of that year, the citizens of 12 high school districts in portions of Will, Grundy, Kendall, LaSalle and Kankakee Counties voted to establish Illinois Community College District 525 - an area to be served by JJC. For two years, the college rented facilities at the original Joliet
