In this industrial and agricultural DesPlaines Valley the Joliet Junior College has stood as a citadel of opportunity for all those who wanted to do more with their lives than they could simply grow into. Under- lying the philosophy of this college has been the idea that educational opportunity is important for all of the children of all of the people. Not all people want to grow intellectually, but those who do eventually decide that in order to become masters of their own destinies they must take charge of their own develop- ment by using the best resources at hand. Hundreds have turned to the Joliet Junior College for aid and guid- ance in growing as their own insights dictated. People have learned that here is a place where they can convert their wishes into action, that in order to convert ideas and materials into units of greater value they must accumulate more usable knowl- edge and be ambitious to act on it. The Joliet Junior College has kept as the foundation stones of its citadel of opportunity those early American traits so closely associated with our beginnings-equalitarianism, independence, honesty, inven- tivness, manliness or womanliness, and initiative. From these foundation stones have risen many areas of training and service. Thousands of people from this valley have touched these stones and have become gre at, each in his own way. This is the Joliet Junior College-Americas oldest public junior college. This is America in action.
