Community Colleges Ted Stilwell, director; Iowa State Department of Education, Grimes State Office Building, Des Moines 50319; 515/281-5294 The Iowa 61st General Assembly in 1965 approved legislation permitting the development of a statewide system of postsecondary educational institutions, identified as merged area schools, operated under the direction of the State Board of Education. The boards of education of county school systems were authorized to plan for the merger of county school systems, or parts thereof, to develop a merged area. Each merged area was required to have a minimum of 4,000 public and private pupils in grades nine through twelve. The merged areas were authorized to develop area schools as either area colleges or area vocational schools. The legislation permitting the development of the two-year colleges provided a procedure whereby the public junior colleges operated by local public school districts could be integrated into the community colleges. There were 16 public junior colleges operating in Iowa at the time the community colleges were organized. The first public junior college in Iowa, Mason City Junior College, was organized in 1918. All 16 public junior colleges merged with these new institutions. The Department of Education was to direct the operations of the development of merged area schools as either community colleges or area vocational schools (Chapter 280A of the Code of Iowa ). A number of these merged area schools were formed from or later combined with existing public junior colleges. Merged area schools were also referred to as "area vocational or technical schools"" or "community colleges," depending on their primary mission.

HOUSE FILE 263 To establish a civil rights commission to eliminate unfair and discriminatory practices in public accommodations, employment, apprenticeship programs, on-the-job training programs, and vocational schools and to permit the study of discrimination in housing. The Iowa Civil Rights Act of 1965 was enacted by the Sixty-First General Assembly. It became effective on May 6, 1965, after approval by the Secretary of State on April 29, 1965. The Act provides for the proscription of unfair or discriminatory practices in three areas: (1) employment, (2) public accommodations and (3) intimidation and discriminatory aid. The basic structure of the Act is such that all complaints are first sought to be settled by methods of conciliation, education and persuasion. If these methods fail to gain compliance with the law in a case where probable cause has been found to exist, then the matter can be brought to public hearing by the Commission. Subpoena powers are available to the Commission for the public hearings. Also, based upon Commission findings at the hearings, orders may be issued by the Commission to assure compliance. These orders may be backed up by orders of the Iowa courts. Employment Provisions: "Section 7.1. It shall be an unfair or discriminatory practice for any:

Garey is an Example of Learning for Life There has never been a period in Jerda Garey's life when she wasn't learning, challenging herself, or giving a caring boost to someone to pursue their dreams through education. Driven early in life by a desire to bolster the fortunes - both human and economic of her rural, ranching area of McCook, Neb., Garey has made a career out of building programs teaching technical and vocational skills to anyone willing to consume the knowledge she has to share. While co-managing the family's farm/ranch, Garey worked to complete her master's degree, helped create a nursery school based a community need, and training high school students the life skills embodied in the curriculums of family and consumer sciences. Upon earning her master's, she joined McCook Community College and spent the next 20 years developing a program in family and consumer sciences, eventually also serving as division chair for vocational education at the college to dean of the community services (establishing the community education programs of the college). She even became involved in a pilot program called Nebraska Community Builders Academy that sought ways to bring better paying job opportunities to her rural area. She also served stints as local Chamber of Commerce president, president of the Kiwanis Club, and volunteer worker for several political and civic organizations.
