110 ILCS 805/ Public Community College Act.

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

Sec. 8-2.

The Sections, clauses, sentences and parts of this Act are severable,
are not matters of mutual essential inducement, and any of them may be
excised by any court of competent jurisdiction if this Act would otherwise
be unconstitutional or ineffective. It is the intention of this Act to
confer upon community college districts the whole or any part of the powers
in this Act provided for, and if any one or more Sections, clauses,
sentences and parts of this Act shall for any reason be questioned in any
court of competent jurisdiction and shall be adjudged unconstitutional or
invalid, such judgment shall not affect, impair or invalidate the remaining
provisions thereof, but shall be confined in its operation to the specific
provision or provisions so held unconstitutional or invalid, and the
inapplicability or invalidity of any Section, clause, sentence or part of
this Act in any one or more instances shall not be taken to affect or
prejudice its applicability or validity in any other instance.
