Veterans are at a higher risk of suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) than the general population, and it is the third most prevalent disability for veterans receiving compensation (Reisman, 2016). 

The lesson is, that like human nature itself, war is a complicated weave of good and bad, life and death, heroism and brutality.

Every year at this time, we are putting the finishing touches on the college’s Annual Report to the Community... 

The stories and information highlighted in the report share progress toward the goals of our Strategic Plan, provide fiscal year financial data, and most importantly celebrate individual and college successes. We hope that through these stories, we can help create and foster personal connections between you, our community members, and Waubonsee Community College, YOUR community college.

I have always thought that anecdotally many historians—especially male historians—first became fascinated with the study of the past through military history.

While the nation owes a deep gratitude to the men and women that have served in the military, it is important to also recognize that for many veterans, their service did not cease once they took off their uniforms.

Within the context of a global pandemic, racial injustice, economic volatility, climate change, and divisive politics, life in these United States has presented today’s college students with many uncertainties; however, Waubonsee’s faculty and staff are committed to consistently provide high-quality, inclusive learning experiences, academic and student support services, and engaging and meaningful student life events and programs.

The Waubonsee Community College Board of Trustees seated Armando Ferrer to serve as the student trustee for the 2020-2021 academic year.  

Waubonsee Community College announced the names of the student government for the current academic year.

Waubonsee Community College Alumnus, Diana Iracheta, received the Illinois Community College Trustee Association (ICCTA) Pacesetter Award.

In the changing world around us, it can often feel like everything is moving too fast to keep up. This seems especially true with advancements in medicine and technology.
