 Earlier
this year, the District 540 Board of Trustees approved the naming of
the remodeled large conference room located in the Community Commons
Building on the Main Campus in Normal to honor late Board of
Trustees Chair Chadwick.
The remodeled 3,255 square foot space is one of the primary large
conference spaces at the College for internal and external events
and is the primary site of the monthly Board of Trustees meetings.
Chadwick passed away in the summer of 2021. At the time he was
serving as both chair of Heartland’s District 540 Board of Trustees
as well as President of the Illinois Community College Trustees
Association (ICCTA).
“It is only fitting that we dedicate this space, where the Board
continues to do the work of the College, to Gregg," said Trustee
Jeff Flessner. "Heartland would not be the place it is today without
the efforts he made and those he inspired with his leadership. We
are all better for knowing him."

Chadwick served on the HCC Board
of Trustees beginning in 2002 and was elected Chair of the Board
in 2009. He had also served the ICCTA in previous roles,
including Treasurer (2009-2010), Chair of the Government
Relations and Public Policy Committee (2017-2019), and as Vice
President (2019-2020). Chadwick served as Chief Operating
Officer at Marcfirst (now known as Lifelong Access) in Normal.
In 2021, the ICCTA Board Representatives established the Gregg
Chadwick Student Service Scholarship, which is awarded to a
community college student who exhibits dedication to public
service.
