Southeastern Illinois College, and Shawnee Community College

Four area community colleges - Rend Lake College, John A. Logan College, Southeastern Illinois College, and Shawnee Community College - will join Southern Illinois University Carbondale for "Higher Education Night" at the fairgrounds. College and university recruitment officials are offering an evening of fun, information, and free stuff beginning at 6 p.m. Prior to the start of competition for Southern Illinois Has Talent Finals at 7:30 p.m., the Saluki Shakers will perform along with Karissa Stepter, a Metropolis teen and Shawnee Community College student who sang for NASCAR; Blend, an a cappella group originally formed at John A. Logan College; and the SIC Jazz Ensemble, Southeastern Illinois College's outstanding male vocalists. In addition, Daniel Baine's Dance Team will also perform. Baine has assisted with performances at community colleges and SIUC. The entire event takes place inside the grandstand at the fairgrounds. "This is a great opportunity for our higher educational institutions to showcase themselves in one location, and it is also a great opportunity for prospective students to be able to get information that will help map his or her futures," said Shannon Woodworth, who is organizing the event along with Julie Wilkerson and Roger Brand. There is no cost to attend Higher Education Night. It is sponsored by The Southern Illinoisan.
