t' Dream Shape Into Realit The transition into a Class ljunior college was only one of the steps Joliet Junior College has taken along its path of development. Concentrating on the future, JJC could foresee an enrollment that will jump to five thousand in 1975. With this expectancy, it was manifest that Joliet Junior College construct a campus which can answer the demands of a changing society. In 1968 the Junior College Board selected a wooded site in Troy Township for this new campus. Extending over four-hundred acres, this rustic area with its scenery and clear lake offers unlimited possibilities which have set the imagina- tions of many people into a whirl of dreams, patterns, and plans. Joliet Junior College has and will continue to change. By peering in the realms of the future, it is evident that the best is yet to come. 1F in 4 , at- ---ff -- . .... .

Students E cape T ew Center Joliet Junior College was officially classified a Class ljunior college through the aid of a local referendum in February. 1967. This classification was the beginning of a new two-year college which would serve the designated area known as District 525. In 1968-9, JJC proclaimed an enrollment of approximately two thousand students. In order to create a more collegiate atmosphere and to increase the facilities that were needed by the college, the administrators of Joliet Junior College arranged to rent the neighboring Boyls Club. This new annex to JJC was the realization of a dream. The Boy's Club was converted into a Student Center, housing a cafeteria and canteen service, recreation room, library. and counseling and student affairs offices. For the first time in the history of the college, students had a place to go which belonged only to them. 1E
