In carrying out its mission, the Illinois Community College Board affirms itscommitment to the "educational development of all persons to the limit of theircapacities" as established in the Illinois Constitution. The Board further affirmsits commitment to provide leadership and direction to the community collegesystem in ways that maximize local autonomy but which assure that each localinstitution is allowed an equal chance of success. The Board accepts its role asa coordinating agency and believes that, in this role, it is an integral partnerwith local boards of trustees in providing a framework for successful learningexperiences for all residents of Illinois.

The Board commits itself to the following principles in implementing itscoordinating responsibilities for the community college system.

Society's values can, and must, be shaped and revised by community colleges whereleadership, integrity, humanity, dignity, pride, and caring are purposefully taught andmodeled.

The focus of all activities within the system should be quality and excellence.

Expressions and manifestations of bigotry, prejudice, and denigration of character areintolerable in the Illinois community college system.

Experiences of con:munity college students should be directed at developing eachindividual as an informed, responsible, and contributing citizen.

No individual is inherently more important than another, and each must be provided anequal opportunity to achieve success, regardless of heritage or environmental condition.

The Illinois community college system has a responsibility to assist communities inidentifying and solving those problems that undermine and destroy the fibre of thecommunity.

The Illinois community college system has a responsibility to be accountable, both forits activities and its stewardship of public funds.
