Talk:Southwestern Illinois College/Archive 1

name change
there seems to be no compelling reason to remove "Junior College" from the type description. There is no clear definition that I can find that would eliminate our institution as a member of the set of Junior Colleges...

"a junior college (informally, a juco) is a two-year post-secondary school whose main purpose is to provide academic, vocational and professional education. The highest certificate offered by such schools is usually an associate's degree, although many junior college students continue their education at a university or college, transferring some or all of the credit earned at the junior college toward the degree requirements of the four-year school."

from the Wiki article on Junior College (my "bold"). We are as described above.
