BUILDING A TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY COMMUNITY COLLEGE
POWERED BY PARTNERSHIPS

CHICAGO COOKWORKFORCE PARTNERSHIP

President Ken Ender talks with students from Paddock Elementary School.
Several times a year my office is
overrun by some of our most important
partners–students from area elementary and
middle schools. The past year, more than a
thousand youngsters have visited our campus
through school tours, special events and
participation in our summer InZone program.
For most of those students, visiting Harper is
their first college experience and you can feel
their sense of awe and wonderment when
they step onto our campus. It is our hope
that they will have another feeling after their
campus trip —a sense of belonging. For our
community to move forward and thrive, it is
essential for young people to feel that a post-
secondary credential is not just an option, but
an essential and mandatory gateway to good
jobs and good wages. For that to happen, the
conversation about college needs to happen
early and often, and we want to make sure we
do our part. That’s why we’re expanding our
outreach to elementary and middle schools,
especially those schools where the majority
of students qualify for the federal free and
reduced lunch program. We’re increasing
the number of school tours, assigning staff
as liaisons to area schools, encouraging
adopt-a-college programs and making sure
our summer InZone programs continue to
grow and thrive.
I get a kick out of elementary and middle
school students visiting me at Harper. Visiting
the President’s Office can be intimidating,
but it doesn’t take long before the sounds
of laughter, clapping and shouting can be
heard throughout the third floor of the Wojcik
Conference Center. In inspiring all of our kids
to go to college, that laughter is the sound
of success.
“The conversation about college needs to happen early and often, and we want to make sure we do our part.”

“Harper and the three school districts formed a consortium to coordinate their efforts and provide students new ways to overcome the math hurdle, and created a template for success that should be a starting point for other districts.”
-Daily Herald Editorial 2/15/2013
184% increase in
dual credit class enrollment
HIGH SCHOOL PARTNERSHIPS = BIG GAINS IN MATHIn 2011, Harper began an innovative
partnership with district high schools with
a simple goal: ensure a college readiness
for all high school graduates. Research
shows fewer than 25 percent of students
who take a remedial course in college ever
finish their degree.
We started with math. Under a plan devel-
oped through the Northwest Educational
Council for Student Success (NECSS), high
school students in Harper’s district are tested
for college math readiness in their junior year
and are strongly encouraged to take math
in their senior year. Math faculty from Harper
and high schools now meet regularly to make
sure courses at our respective institutions are
aligned with each other. We’re sharing data
with high schools to better identify students
Enrollment in remedial math
classes decreased by 21% from 2010 to 2013
who may be falling behind, and we’ve
developed new summer bridge
programs to help at-risk students
before they enroll at Harper.
The results are encouraging. Enrollment
in remedial math classes at Harper
decreased by 21 percent from 2010
to 2013 and the number of students
taking dual credit classes skyrocketed
from 839 in 2010 to 2,382 in 2012, an
increase of 184 percent. This year, we’re
developing similar high school partnerships
in English to make sure students who come
to Harper are fully prepared for the rigor of
college classes.

After years of decline, manufacturing
is enjoying a resurgence. Since January
2010, the manufacturing industry has added
almost 600,000 jobs.* This means educated,
well-trained workers are in demand. Harper
College is helping to meet this need through
partnerships with local manufacturers.
PARTNERSHIPS TO MEET THE DEMAND FOR SKILLED WORKERS IN ADVANCED MANUFACTURING
Through Harper’s new Advanced Manufacturing
program, Harper students can connect with
more than 100 manufacturers. Many of
these companies host Harper interns and
hire graduates.
Because of our success, the U.S. Department
of Labor awarded Harper $12.9 million to
expand our Advanced Manufacturing program
to more than 20 Illinois community colleges.
By partnering with area manufacturers and
peer institutions to develop curriculum, create
opportunities and identify resources, Harper
College is seeking to ensure that the future
of U.S. manufacturing is a bright one.
*Manufacturing Institute**Crain’s Chicago Business 2/25/13
Luke Rohrbacher, a student in
Harper’s Advanced Manufacturing
program, began as an intern with
one of Harper’s industry partners,
Chicago White Metal Casting (CWMC).
Luke was quickly hired and two years
later, he heads up CWMC’s traffic
department overseeing shipping
logistics and inventory control.
“ I never planned on going into a field like manufacturing because I was never exposed to it, but it’s a perfect fit for me.”
–Luke RohrbacherHarper College

[ ]83% of U.S. companies
reported moderate-to-serious
shortages in workers qualified for
skilled production positions such as
machinists and technicians.*
[ ]On average, Chicago-area
manufacturing salaries exceed the
U.S. average of $60,340 by 10%.**

Through unique partnerships and
outreach, Harper is making higher education
more accessible to residents who live on the
edges of our district. On the east side of our
service area, we have revamped programming
and added staff at the Harper College Learning
and Career Center to better serve residents
in Prospect Heights and Wheeling. The
changes come after a yearlong educational
needs analysis and discussions with nearly
70 community and business leaders. The
feedback led to expanded programs in fast-
growing job fields such as phlebotomy,
certified nursing assistant (CNA), information
technology and computer-based manufacturing.

PARTNERING TO BRING JOB TRAINING CLOSER TO HOME
In the Village of Hanover Park, at the
southern end of Harper’s district, we’ve
opened a new extension site through a
partnership with Elgin Community College,
the Chicago Cook Workforce Partnership
and the State of Illinois. The Education
and Work Center in Hanover Park will serve
the area’s fast-growing immigrant population
with classes such as English as a Second
Language (ESL) and Adult Basic Education
(reading, writing and math.) GED classes will
also be offered in both English and Spanish.
By sharing costs and resources, the Education
and Work Center in Hanover Park serves as
a template for how government entities can
work together to provide opportunities and
bring a college campus closer to home.

MAJOR FEDERAL GRANTS AWARDED TO HARPER COLLEGE 2012-2014
$12,939,459 U.S. Department of Labor grant
to develop Advanced Manufacturing program at
community colleges throughout Illinois.
$1,151,774 U.S. Department of Labor grant
to develop programs for Supply Chain Management
in partnership with 10 other colleges and
Northwestern University.
$2,000,000 U.S. Department of Education grant
to develop student tracking and progress software
including Student Portal, Student Analytics, MyPlan
and a mentorship software program. U.S. Commerce Secretary Penny Pritzker speaking to Harper College graduates during the 2014 Spring Graduation Ceremony.
Harper’s efforts to develop
partnerships have attracted attention not
only in Illinois but throughout the country.
Lawmakers and policy leaders in Washington,
D.C., have pointed to Harper’s collaborative
model as a best practice for making higher
education more efficient and cost-effective.
Their praise has gone beyond words. Over
the past three years, Harper has been
awarded more than $16 million in federal
grants to expand programs beyond the
district’s boundaries and to pilot promising
new partnerships, practices and programs.
“My friendship with President Ender reminds me of one of the lessons that I have learned in business and in life: relationships matter.”
- Penny Pritzker U.S. Commerce Secretary
Because of Harper’s success in building
relationships, U.S. Commerce Secretary
Penny Pritzker appointed President Ender
to a prestigious White House panel working
to solve the shortage of skilled workers for the
manufacturing industry. She also accepted the
College’s invitation to be our spring graduation
speaker and receive an honorary degree. Her
advice to graduates was simple: “relationships
matter.” We couldn’t agree more.
FEDERAL PARTNERSHIPS LEAD TO GRANTS FOR INNOVATIVE PROGRAMS AND PRACTICES
Harper has been awarded more
than $16 million in federal grants to
expand programs beyond the district’s
boundaries and to pilot promising
new partnerships, practices

Last spring, Harper College conferred
3,743 degrees and certificates, well ahead
of our 2014 target of 3,054. But there’s more
work to do. If we are to reach President
Obama’s goal to produce more college
THE PROMISE OF PARTNERSHIP President Barack Obama has challenged community colleges to produce five million more degrees and certificates by 2020.
We did the math. Harper’s proportional share is 10,604 additional degrees and certificates earned by 2020. Harper graduates about 2,500 students per year, which means Harper needs to average 1,000 more degrees and certificates earned annually over the next six years to meet President Obama’s goal.
graduates (see box below), we need more
students to finish what they start at Harper
by completing their associates degree or
workforce certificate or transferring successfully
to a four-year university. To track our progress,

From rendering to completion, the new parking facility.
Thanks to state funding and a capital
referendum passed by district voters in 2008,
the College has continued to make substantial
progress on the Campus Master Plan. The
plan, developed with community input in
2011, calls for creating an optimal 21st
century learning environment by renovating
older buildings, improving the campus
infrastructure, rebuilding roadways, improving
parking and making the campus more
environmentally friendly.
Phase 1 Building D Renovation and Addition
The first phase of the $46 million renovation
of Building D was completed in the fall. The
initial work on the east end of the building adds
two new lecture halls, new student study and
gathering areas and infrastructure improvements.
Over the next two years, work will continue on
Building D that will transform the 1960s era
building into a state-of-the-art learning center
with new classrooms, labs, and staff and
faculty offices.
Building H Career and Technical Education Center
Scheduled to open in 2015, Harper’s renovated
Career and Technical Education Center will create
modern learning labs for fast-growing career programs
including manufacturing, welding, fashion design,
interior decorating, heating, ventilation and air
conditioning (HVAC), maintenance technology, law
enforcement and fire science. The project is funded in
part by a $20 million grant from the State of Illinois.
COMING SOON: Canning Center One-Stop Student Services
The Canning Center One-Stop Student
Services, which is scheduled to open in 2017,
will consolidate the College’s admissions, registrar,
business and financial aid offices, as well as other
student services, making it easier and more
convenient for students to enroll at Harper. The
center’s cost is funded in part by a $40 million
capital grant from the State of Illinois. The building
will be named after Rita and John Canning in
recognition of their $1 million gift to the Women’s
Program, which provides educational support
and resources to single parents, displaced
homemakers and others – many of whom are
survivors of domestic violence.
Four-Level Parking Structure
The much anticipated Harper parking structure
opened in the fall of 2014. The structure adds
625 new parking spaces and connects to
the east side of the campus via a new indoor
pedestrian bridge.

Dear Friends,
We have just begun our roles as the Chief Advancement Officer and Foundation Board President
and have much excitement for the future of the Foundation and what we can accomplish for Harper
students and the Harper community. Through scholarship and program support, we can help Harper
students reach their goals and make their dreams a reality.
However, before we look forward, it is important to take time to review the wonderful achievements of
the past two years. Achievements that would be impossible without the support of partners like you.
In the past two years, over 600 students received Harper College Educational Foundation
scholarships. Your donations to the foundation funded new programs that focused on access to
higher education for minority students and career re-training for displaced workers.
We are grateful for the partnerships we have established with donors like Rita and John Canning. Their
$1,000,000 transformational gift this past March to the Rita and John Canning Women’s Program will
help hundreds of students with the financial scholarship support needed to pursue their academic
dreams. You can read more about Rita and John and their generous gift on the following pages.
On behalf of our students, faculty and staff, thank you for being our partner in student success. Together,
we continue to build a strong foundation for our students, our College and the community.
With warm regards,
Laura J. Brown Kathleen GilmerChief Advancement Officer President Harper College Harper College Educational Foundation Board

An emotional moment between donor Rita Canning and Patrice Whitten after the announcement of the Canning’s $1 million gift to the Women’s Program at Harper College. Whitten turned to the Women’s Program after a divorce. Whitten now works as a registered nurse in Pleasant Prairie, WI. (From Left to Right) Thomas G. Wischhusen, Immediate Past President, Harper College Educational Foundation; John
and Rita Canning; Dr. Kenneth Ender, Harper College President; Diane Hill, Chair, Harper College Board of Trustees.
Education and support are critical
for women who hope to rebuild their lives
after a divorce or an abusive relationship.
Unfortunately, many programs that serve
women in need have been eliminated
because of cuts in state and federal grants.
John and Rita Canning wanted to make
sure that didn’t happen to the Women’s
Program at Harper College, which served
nearly 450 women last year, half of whom were
victims of domestic violence. Thanks to their
generous gift of $1 million, the Harper College
Women’s Program will continue to empower
women to forge a new path for themselves
PRIVATE-PUBLIC PARTNERSHIPS
and their children through education and job
training opportunities, financial assistance and
other support services.
In recognition of the Cannings’ gift and
longtime support, Harper will name its future
student center after the Cannings. Scheduled
to open during the College’s 50th anniversary
in 2017, the planned state-of-the-art facility will
offer a meeting place in the middle of campus
and create a one-stop center for admission
and enrollment services.
“You’re just blown away when you hear the stories of these women and their struggles. And they’re going to succeed because of what happened at Harper. It’s nice to know you really can change things.”
—Rita Canning
“I needed to reinvent myself, and I didn’t go into any debt because of the assistance I received. Sometimes I just went in to talk. It was very challenging to work, go to school full time as a nursing student and be a single mom to three kids, but they kept me going.”
—Patrice Whitten Harper College
