Illinois Code § 3

§ 3.

Establishment, funding, and location. There is hereby created the Illinois Summer School for the arts which shall be a residential arts program, conducted in the summer, at a State operated institution which successfully bids to host the program and which affords the program appropriate laboratory space, equipment, office space, recreational opportunities, and housing. The Summer Arts School shall be funded by Federal grants and State appropriations. Private contributions and endowment programs may be established. Special scholarships shall be available to assist economically disadvantaged students and special needs students who require assistance or who may have other exceptional needs which if not addressed would deny their participation in the program. The Illinois Summer School for the Arts shall admit those students who have completed the 9th, 10th, or 11th grades, and who have been determined to be eligible to attend based upon the criteria established for the arts area of their talent. Furthermore, students shall be selected from throughout the State to maintain a geographically representative population. (Source: P.A. 84-1351. Repealed by P.A. 104-261, eff. 1-1-26.)
