Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

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.

To authorize application to the State
Board for the
approval of new units of instruction, research, or public service as defined
in this Section and to establish such new units following approval
in
accordance with the provisions of this Act and the Board of Higher Education

The term "new unit of instruction, research, or public service" includes
the establishment of a college, school, division, institute, department,
or other unit including majors and curricula in any field of instruction,
research, or public service not theretofore included in the program of the
community college, and includes the establishment of any new branch or campus
of the institution. The term shall not include reasonable and moderate

of existing curricula, research, or public service programs which have a
direct relationship to existing programs; and the State Board may, under
its rulemaking power, define the character of reasonable and moderate
extensions.
