Facilities
Illinois Technical College was located at 506 South Wabash Avenue in downtown Chicago. Class sizes were limited to 20 students per laboratory (or shop) and 40 students per lecture. All TV-training classrooms and shops were equipped with standard-brand color TVs and radios. These hands-on teaching workshops had a variety of test equipment used to repair televisions and radios, including oscilloscopes, voltmeters and signal generators. Several electronics labs were used to teach analog and digital electronics; these labs were equipped with electronic test equipment such as multiple-trace oscilloscopes, digital voltmeters and microcomputers. Each associate-degree student was given a portable prototyping breadboard system on which to construct electronic circuits. This patented training system was developed by ITC.
