Pages that need editing

[Waubonsee Community College ] One of the two colleges I currently work. Before this class I hadn't looked at the Wikipedia page. It is lacking in a lot of information (History, demographics, academics etc.) and despite what little is there, there is misinformation (ex WCC has 4 campuses, not 3). It needs a lot of additions and citations. I might start on this one for this class, but I have a feeling this is going to be a long term project for me now.
[Morton College] I used the link for Start-Class articles and navigated to Chicago related Stub articles. As I was skimming through for something I might have some knowledge in, I saw that one of my previous institutions was on the list. The article needs information and citations in general. It's the second oldest community college in in the state of Illinois, but it has the smallest district and serves a primarily Latinx/Hispanic and immigrant community and much like the Wikipedia article, has been neglected.
[Jacksonville High School] From the Chicago related stub page I looked for the WikiProject Illinois page. That page had a stub page category page for more Illinois schools. I chose this one, as I have a passing connection to it (grew up in the area). The article needs more information, and citations.
[Forest Home Cemetery] Skimming through the WikiProject Illinois pages reminded me of some of the information I came across when I was an intern with the Forest Park Historical Society. That lead me to looking up some of the historic sites in the town and lead me to the one of the many cemeteries. Much more information could be added to this page, including more information about Radical Row, The Druid Monument, and the active Roma burials. Unfortunately many of the sources for that information would be housed in the unpublished archives of the historic society, making this harder to add the information to.
[Historic District ] The WikiProjects Illinois page lead me to more historical sites that need fleshing out. This page needs expansion, citation, and likely more pictures.
