fwiw, the current college facility is an entirely different campus that
opened in 1993. Brashear wouldn't have attended there.

The term "junior college" for a two-year college (if the student
attended full time, which few ever did) fell into disfavor and was
replaced with the euphemism "community college". If such colleges were
entry-level colleges, the student completed freshman and sophmore years,
then transferred to a four-year college for junionr and senior years.
These colleges used to be affordable and the student may have been more
successful at the four-year college having demonstrated academic
aptitude.

Most students typically attended the evening program part time while
working full time and weren't necessarily seeking four-year college
degrees but continuing education to qualify for better jobs.

In Chicago, there were initially a few full-time colleges on their own
campuses with the evening program offered at the larger high schools,
but the decision was made in the 1960s to go with big-time spending,
building additional campuses throughout the city. Some of the colleges
are on their third locations as even the expanded colleges were
replaced.

I now return you to your regularly-scheduled obituary.
