Letter From The President The year 2015 was a dynamic year of innovation and empowerment at Lewis and Clark Community College. In April, L&C hosted the Illinois Supreme Court Historic Preservation Commission’s presentation of “History on Trial: The Alton School Cases,” an enlightening look inside the history of segregation in our own community. That same night, we announced the renaming of the St. Patrick’s School building in Alton to the Scott Bibb Center. The first memorial to Scott Bibb, a champion for integrated schools in Alton, the center houses L&C’s Adult Education programming, including YouthBuild, Highway Construction, Family Education, English as a Second Language and GED. Each of these programs empowers our adult learners to strive for better opportunities for themselves and for their families. As part of the U.S. Department of Labor grant-funded Building Illinois Bioeconomy Consortium, L&C was able to expand its Process Operations Technology program’s capabilities in 2015, affording students valuable opportunities including internships at the National Corn to Ethanol Research Center at SIUE, a state-of-the-art real world micro refinery. This widely successful program equips students with the technical skills required to build a lifelong career in an in-demand, high paying Process Operations Technology field. Opportunities also expanded for students in CAD/Drafting, Architectural Technology, Welding and more with the opening of the St. Louis Confluence Fab Lab on the college’s N.O. Nelson campus in Edwardsville. The facility, which includes classroom opportunities as well as utilization by businesses and individuals who purchase memberships, opened in November to much excitement. With innovation at its heart, the Fab Lab is and will continue to be a breeding ground for inspiration and bringing ideas to fruition through the use of industrial grade design, fabrication, finishing and assembly tools for many different materials and processes. Learn more at www.lc.edu/fablab. The real champions this year were our students, as their hard work and achievements culminated in a record number of graduates from our programs – 2,010. These students entered the community with new skills and experiences, and ready for new opportunities. With endless possibilities in front of them, they are the future of our communities. Through student success and retention programs, we worked in 2015 to provide the proper support our students needed to make the best of their college experiences. Those continuing efforts earned us a nomination for the prestigious Bellwether Award from the Community College Futures Assembly, in recognition of outstanding achievements and practices and helping to lead community colleges into the future. Of course, these efforts would not be possible without the contributions of our award winning faculty and staff, who finished 2015, as usual, on a high note.
OUR MISSION... To empower people by raising aspirations and fostering achievement through dynamic, compassionate and responsible learning experiences.
Looking to contribute to a brighter future is the new Mannie Jackson Center for the Humanities in Edwardsville. Opened at the site of the Historic Lincoln School this December, the MJCH will work to promote mutual understanding and respect among people of all distinctions, and influence positive social change in our communities and beyond. Since the announcement of a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities and a partnership with influential entrepreneur Mannie Jackson in April 2012, nearly $7 million has been raised by the MJCH Foundation in support of the MJCH’s efforts, which include programming such as public speakers and conferences on the humanities, youth development programs and research aimed at empowering the next generation to change their communities for the better. Within just more than a month of opening, the MJCH welcomed more than 1,400 visitors. A dinner featuring keynote speaker Gen. Colin Powell kicked off programming in 2016. Learn more at www.mjchf.org. Please enjoy this look at the college’s other outstanding accomplishments from 2015, a year to remember, as we look forward to 2016.

THE FOUNDATION
27
Letter From the Foundation President You and I are changing the landscape of the region by supporting the community college model in America through Lewis and Clark. During my career in manufacturing, I’ve witnessed the power of the student-centered, employer-driven programming that leads to prosperous lives. It has been an honor to serve on the Board of Directors of the Lewis and Clark Community College Foundation while managing the Phillips66 Wood River Refinery. Our corporate partnership enhances the refinery’s operations through new, qualified employees, corporate training that improves our operations, and opportunities that improve our employees’ quality of life. As you read through the pages of this annual report, bear in mind that these success stories were made possible by your investment in Lewis and Clark. The most recent example is the opening of the St. Louis Confluence Fab Lab. I was honored to share the podium with SIUE Chancellor Steve Hansen; Boeing’s Senior Manager of Learning, Training and Development Dan Stroot; Illinois Manufacturing Association’s Jim Nelson; and Cope Plastics Director of Human Resources Terri Higgins. We all share the same goal: to encourage people to “manufacture their future” and expose them to the innovation and jobs this industry has to offer. The Fab Lab is an outstanding tool for reaching that goal and partnerships made it happen. Take the opportunity to sit down with an L&C representative and talk about your individual or company goals. There’s a partnership here that will change lives. It just takes a conversation to discover how to get it started. Thank you for investing in Lewis and Clark Community College. You are making a difference. Sincerely,
We all share the same goal: to encourage people to “manufacture their future” and expose them to the innovation and jobs this industry has to offer.

L&C Foundation Scholarships Individuals, families, companies and community groups empower people by investing in scholarships to help Lewis and Clark students fund their education. To earn a scholarship for the coming academic year, students apply online at www.lc.edu/scholarships starting in November. Scholarships range from full funding to partial funding. A full time student spends about $4,000 on tuition, fees, books and supplies annually.
Scholarship Review Committee
A committee of local educators reviewed, ranked and awarded the scholarships to the students. We are grateful to these community leaders for their time and acumen. Sharon Roberts – Chair, Scholarship Committee, Foundation Board of Directors Julie Breden – Faculty, Jersey Community High School Robert Kasten – Retired Principal, East Alton-Wood River High School Debbie Pitts – Retired Principal, Civic Memorial High School LaDonna Whitner - Retired Principal, Alton High School
