Waubonsee Community College made history by hosting its annual Career Programs Open House and Signing Day for the first time within its brand-new 100,000-square-foot Technical Education Center (TEC) on March 12, 2026. The event, which includes local high school students declaring their interest in studying skilled trades at Waubonsee, served as a full-circle moment for Waubonsee student Jacob Merrill and his twin brother Kyle Merrill.
