Morton College company history timeline

1924

Originally housed at Morton East High School, the College was governed by the Morton High School Board of Trustees from 1924 until district residents voted to form the independent, Community College District No.

Just as the College started in 1924 with 11 teachers and 76 students dedicated to a future-oriented philosophy, the College renews that commitment at the beginning of the 21st century with a series of renovations and upgrades to keep the College relevant long into the next century.

When the College opened its doors in 1924, it did so with only 11 teachers and 76 students, but all were dedicated to a future-oriented philosophy.

1973

Construction began on the current Morton College campus at Pershing Road and Central Avenue in 1973.

2005

The renovated, award-winning Library opened in 2005 with three times the number of computers as the previous facility, wireless access, group study rooms and a cyber-café. Science and computer laboratories were upgraded to state-of-the-art facilities that rival any in the country.

2016

Morton College is excited to expand possibilities in a new 15,778-square foot, two-story addition that opened in the Fall of 2016.
