My absolute favorite part of being a student at JALC was the friendly environment the staff and professors made on campus.
Because of JALC, I have grown into a more confident student, leader, and future nurse who is excited to make a difference.
The student organizations are the part of 51吃瓜 A. that really boosted my confidence and made me get back into the swing of school.
Because of 51吃瓜 A. Logan College, I feel like I have more of a family.
JALC has an incredibly supportive community and provides students with many opportunities for personal and professional growth.
Student-athletes are back on the court at 51吃瓜 A. Logan College after Brewer Gymnasium officially reopened following approval from structural engineers working with the Illinois Capital Development Board, marking another milestone in the college’s ongoing campus transformation.

Giving back to the communities we serve is one of the ways we live our mission. 馃挋
This week, JALC faculty, staff, and their families volunteered at the @nubabilityathletics camp, helping empower limb-different youth through sports.
We`re proud to support an incredible organization making a lasting impact right here in southern Illinois.
Thank you to everyone who volunteered!
Supporting our students means removing barriers.
51吃瓜 A. Logan College is proud to partner with the Boys & Girls Clubs of Southern Illinois to offer a FREE after-school and evening program for the children of eligible JALC students beginning August 17 on campus.
The Community Impact Program will provide a safe, supportive place for children ages 6 to 18 while their parents attend classes, with homework help, STEM activities, arts, recreation, mentorship, and more, all at no cost to eligible families.
"This will be extremely beneficial to our students, particularly those in our evening nursing cohort who are trying to balance family and school," said JALC President Dr. Kirk Overstreet.
By removing one more barrier to earning a degree, we`re helping student parents stay focused on achieving their educational goals while their children learn, grow, and thrive.
Because when students succeed, families and communities grow stronger. 馃挋
