REGIONAL PROFILEAbout Ivy Tech Community College Northeast
NORTHEAST (FORT WAYNE) CAMPUSESIvy Tech Community College Northeast is located in Fort Wayne and serves nine counties in northeast Indiana. The College has grown from 131 students enrolled in three programs in August 1969 to nearly 9,000 students enrolled in more than 40 degree programs in 2014.
COLISEUM CAMPUS: This 40,000 square-foot building with classroom, laboratory, workshop, and office space was completed in October 1976. This was the region’s first college-owned building on college-owned land. An adjoining structure of the same size was completed in the spring of 1981. The campus nearly doubled in size with the construction of a third section—a 110,000 square-foot structure that was completed in December 1996. This phase filled the original 26-acre campus, which is now known as Coliseum Campus.
NORTH CAMPUS: In April 2008, the College dedicated its North Campus, which is approximately one mile north of the Coliseum Campus and consists of four classroom and administrative buildings. One of the four buildings is The Steel Dynamics, Inc. Keith E. Busse Technology Center, a 107,000 square-foot building dedicated in February 2010 that houses the Technology Division. The campus was made possible due to the state legislature's reassignment of land and facilities to Ivy Tech Northeast.
AVIATION AND AUTO BODY CENTERS: In the fall of 2012, two program-specific facilities were dedicated within the community. The Aviation Center at Smith Field triples previously available classroom and lab space at a location for the Aviation Maintenance Technology program. The Auto Body Center more than doubles the program's classroom and lab space. These two buildings were financed through the Ivy Tech Foundation and made possible by generous donor contributions to the College.
SOUTH CAMPUS: In January 2013, Ivy Tech Northeast assumed management of the Public Safety Academy: Ivy Tech South Campus on the south side of Fort Wayne. This facility provides additional educational opportunities for southern Allen County, as well as Adams, Huntington, and Wells counties. This building is a win-win partnership between Ivy Tech Northeast and the City of Fort Wayne.
STATEWIDE SYSTEMIvy Tech Community College is the state’s largest public postsecondary institution and the nation’s largest singly accredited statewide community college system serving nearly 200,000 students annually. Ivy Tech has campuses throughout Indiana. The College serves as the state’s engine for workforce development, offering affordable degree programs and training that are aligned with the needs of its community along with courses and programs that transfer to other colleges and universities in Indiana. It is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission and is a member of the North Central Association.
Students find personal attention close to home at Ivy Tech. The average class size is 22 students, but the College also offers the benefits of a large institution in terms of accessibility. Students can earn a degree at one of the 32 degree-granting locations throughout the state, and can take classes in more than 75 communities. Ivy Tech is the state's most affordable college. Students can earn a degree for around $3,860 a year. And with credits that transfer, students can save money by completing the first two years of a four-year degree at Ivy Tech. Also, Ivy Tech's Corporate College offers local, affordable solutions for Indiana business and industry training needs.
No matter where you live, or where you're headed, Ivy Tech Community College can help prepare you for tomorrow's opportunities.

Public Safety Academy: Ivy Tech South Campus
(132,000 sq. ft.) houses:Administrative and faculty officesCriminal JusticeHomeland Security/Public SafetyParalegal Studies
The College expanded its academic outreach with an increased emphasis on serving the city's south side and nearby Adams, Huntington, Wells, and Whitley counties. It achieves this in part through the Public Safety Academy: Ivy Tech South Campus, which joined the College's Coliseum and North campuses in a renewed commitment to the region in fall 2012. Through an agreement and partnership, Ivy Tech Northeast subleases all 132,000-square feet of the PSA. The College assumes all management until the bonds that financed the building's construction are retired in 2022, and Ivy Tech will then own the building. Ivy Tech Northeast offers its students a wide range of courses at the campus.
Aviation Center at Smith Field
(21,000 sq. ft.) houses:Aviation Maintenance Technology
The Aviation Maintenance Technology program in Fort Wayne is unique to the statewide Ivy Tech system, and it provides an opportunity for students to receive a hands-on, educational experience in this specific field of study. The $2.3 million Aviation Center at the Smith Field Airport triples classroom and lab space from its previous facility and provides additional hangar availability, which allows the program to use its own aircraft. The facility was constructed by the Ivy Tech Foundation and is leased to the College.
Auto Body Center
(10,000 sq. ft.) houses:Auto Body Repair portion of Automotive Technology
The Auto Body Center, located on Opportunity Drive in Fort Wayne, allows for additional course offerings and alleviates capacity constraints experienced at its previous facility. New, state-of-the-art paint booths and adequate room for growth enable a high level of learning and student engagement. The facility more than doubles the prior seating capacity and provides a lab setting similar to what is found in the industry. It was purchased and renovated by the Ivy Tech Foundation and is leased to the College.
Ashley Community Center
(5,500 sq. ft.) 500 S. Gonser Ave., Ashley, Ind.
Day and evening courses are offered at the Ashley Community Center in DeKalb County. Popular programs include the College for Working Adults' Business Administration program and numerous general education courses. Ivy Tech's space at this facility is leased from the Town of Ashley.

Indiana's investment in Ivy Tech must increase
The Friday before A Reason to Taste: Golden Gala, about a dozen Ivy Tech Community College Northeast students and employees tried their best to turn the gymnasium on North Campus into a banquet hall.
And they succeeded.
The space was no longer a place for basketball, as the hoops had been raised, tucked into the rafters. Glass chandeliers and gold and black paper lanterns hung from ceiling beams, and a table stood at half-court, awaiting the Ivy Tech 50th anniversary ice sculpture to serve as the room’s centerpiece the following evening.
Dinner tables were set with floating candles in vases, and colored lights against the walls created a soothing ambiance not often associated with the squeak of gym shoes during a game of pick-up.
In its second year, Ivy Tech Northeast’s A Reason to Taste fundraiser dinner and silent auction on Oct. 12 drew more than 200 people and raised more than $63,000. One-hundred percent of the money benefited the Ivy Tech Foundation, dedicated to student scholarships.
Which means the reason behind the Reason is students. That Fort Wayne community members get to experience a five-course gourmet dinner is just the icing in the macaroon.
And A Reason to Taste is nothing if not a concoction of experiences.
EXPERIENCE NO. 1: DRINKING SOUP THROUGH A STRAw
Though the silent auction did not
begin until 6 p.m., bids had been made by 5:50 p.m. With more than 90 items up for auction, guests could choose from a range of items including vacations, restaurant gift certificates, spa packages and a child-sized SUV complete with roll bar.
As students in black pants–white shirt attire worked the room with trays of hors d’oeuvres, patrons tried a variety of bite-sized treats, including one that left some befuddled: a celery root soup, served with a small straw. While some tried to use the straw as a spoon, a server said it’s common to drink soup through a straw in France.
Several years ago, Ivy Tech Northeast’s culinary banquet wasn’t quite the lavish affair it is today. The set-up was similar, says Andrew Welch, executive director of Marketing and Communications, but it didn’t have quite the impact for student scholarships through table sales and auction items.
After a seven-year hiatus, Ivy Tech reinvented the event in 2012 with great success, and 2013’s banquet was the biggest yet, due in large part to corporate sponsors: presenting sponsor Parkview Health, reception sponsor Plumbers & Steamfitters Local 166–Fort Wayne, and 16 other corporate table sponsors.
John Brooks, an Ivy Tech Foundation board member, pointed out that helping fund student scholarships is not only good for students, but good for Fort Wayne.
“I like the fact that so many of the students are actually working and improving their situation to work,” Brooks said. “If we can have more people that can have good-paying
Annual banquet, auction raise more than $63,000 for students

An ice sculpture with the Ivy Tech 50th logo stood as the gym’s centerpiece, flanked by more than 90 silent auction items.
Golden Gala
jobs because of the education, that’s good for everyone.”
EXPERIENCE NO. 2: HAVING FOOD CHANGE THE FLAVOR OF wINE
The five-course dinner began with a tasting plate: a vanilla-seared scallop and marinated tuna with wasabi, paired with Drouhin Macon-Village Chardonnay.
The flavor of the wine changed after taking a bite of the tuna, Deborah Morris pointed out to her husband, Kevin. Deborah is an adjunct faculty member who teaches English at Ivy Tech Northeast.
Indeed the tuna seemed to give the Chardonnay a softer, more pleasant flavor.
EXPERIENCE NO. 3: GOOGLING A DISH’S NAME TO FIGURE OUT wHAT’S ON THE PLATE
For the meal’s second course, student servers brought out field greens tossed with duck confit, herb vinaigrette, and prosciutto.
As Kevin Morris wondered if “confit” meant something like “duck liver,” given the meat’s color and gamey flavor, a Google search showed that “confit” is a technique where a piece of meat is cooked in its own fat. A student later confirmed that the meat came from duck gizzards.
For the main course, students served beef Bourgogne, which was so tender, it required just a fork to cut. The meal concluded with a cheese plate and a tasting trio of desserts: pear frangipane tart (“frangipane” is an almond-flavored paste), pumpkin pots de crème (essentially the creamy inside of pumpkin pie in a small glass pot), and a chocolate macaroon.
Monique Causey, one of the many hospitality administration students preparing the feast, poked her head into the banquet to see the Student Life Center’s transformed gymnasium.
“Ivy Tech’s been good to me,” she said. “When I walked into this
room, it made me proud to be a student.”
Causey will participate in the Mystery Basket Competition this January, which has hospitality administration students creating dishes from pre-selected ingredients. Winners study cooking in Europe for two weeks and create the A Reason to Taste menu.
“When I originally started this (program), I wanted to study in France,” she said. “I wanted it to be a part of my life. If I got to go, it would mean everything.”
Hospitality administration students had a makeshift work table set up just outside the Student Life Center Gymnasium for food prep.
