A Message from the Director As summer approaches, many of us take a moment to pause from our routines to enjoy vacations, outings, and time with family and friends. Many are taking a break from formal studies and enjoying all that summer in southern Illinois has to offer. If you are thinking about trying something new, our summer offerings may be just what you are seeking.

We offer a variety of non-credit personal and professional development opportunities, and we welcome the opportunity to connect campus and the community by creating spaces for lifelong learning. Please consider joining us for a class; we would love to see you this summer!

Best Wishes,

Mary Ettling Mary Ettling Interim Director

SIUE Successful Communities Collaborative and Small Cities Projects SIUE Successful Communities Collaborative (SSCC) is a cross-disciplinary program that supports one-year partnerships between the University and communities in Illinois to advance local resilience and sustainability based on community-identified environmental, social, and economic issues and needs. Our mission is to connect communities with the students and faculty of SIUE. SSCC selects a single partner community (generally a city or county) through a competitive application process. Working with administrative staff and stakeholders in the selected community, the collaborative helps identify 10-15 projects that will advance local resilience and sustainability based on community-identified needs. Each project is connected with one or more key courses at SIUE that can provide research or technical support and move the project forward.
