The College of Lake County, located in the state of Illinois is commonly referred to as CLC for short. This is a registered and well-known public community college that has been voted a highly appreciated state school. The college does have a main campus called Grayslake. There are, however, another two campuses that are located in Waukegan and Vernon Hills. Luckily enough the main campus is pretty close to the great city of Chicago, is located less than 50 miles south of the windy city. In the 1960s, a referendum was passed establishing that the official beginning of this student community college start its classes in the latter part of the 1960s. At its beginning near 15,000 students were in transfer programs, career programs, graduate classes, and adult basic education. Half of that 15,000 were involved in non-credit and career development, and training for businesses.

However, it would take until the mid-2000s for the community to open the Lake County High Schools Technology Campus (Tech Campus) on campus. This became knowns as the extension for many area schools including admission and access for high school students to attend classes for particular career training programs. Most of these classes are considered AP college classes, which states that they qualify as college credits toward institutions and universities. With 20 plus high schools throughout the two surrounding counties representing nearly 2,000 students, Tech Campus is the largest career technical secondary educational system in the state of Illinois.

In the early 2000s, the University Center of Lake County has a building built as an add-on addition to the Grayslake campus. It is a consortium of Illinois four-year colleges and universities offering opportunities for local residents to complete or add to their education begun at CLC or elsewhere. While the University Center is functionally independent of CLC, its presence offers an opportunity for CLC students and other local residents to pursue further education without relocating or commuting a greater distance. Currently, there are 19 universities with classes offered at the University Center.
