Joliet Junior College Dedicates Greenhouse Facility
Joliet Junior College – the nation’s first public community college – recently dedicated a new Greenhouse Facility. The facility sprouts as the first community college and second of any U.S. college or university greenhouse to register for LEED-NC certification.
Dr. James Ethridge, chair of the Agricultural and Horticultural Sciences Department, expects the new facility to halve the carbon footprint of JJC’s old greenhouse.
