==History==
In 1911, the first city college in Chicago, Illinois, was Crane Junior College, founded to serve graduates of the nearby Crane High School. During the Great Depression, the financially strapped Board of Education considered closing the school; after arguments from Clarence Darrow, it remained open as the Theodore Herzl Junior College, named for the founder of the modern Zionism movement. During World War II, Herzl Junior College was leased by the United States Navy and used in training thousands of Navy personnel as a part of the Electronics Training Program. In 1968, at the request of the local community, the school was renamed Malcolm X College and relocated to its present site at 1900 W. Van Buren St.
In 2012, it was announced that the City of Chicago would be building a $251 million state-of-the-art facility and 1,500-space parking garage adjacent to the United Center, a facility to train students for careers in healthcare.〔"()." Chicago Sun-Times. Retrieved on February 11, 2013.〕 The 500,000 square-foot campus will offer: healthcare and general education courses, a virtual hospital, simulated healthcare technology, a dental hygiene clinic, smart technology in every classroom, a conference center, a daycare center and a 1,500-space parking garage. The campus will also house the new City Colleges of Chicago School of Nursing.〔"()." WBEZ. Retrieved on October 31, 2014.〕
