(110 ILCS 120/1) (from Ch. 144, par. 12)
Sec. 1.
When parks, squares or
other public grounds have been legally vacated by ordinance of any
municipality, and any university or college in this state, incorporated
in pursuance of the laws thereof, has been hereby authorized to erect
buildings for educational purposes on such vacated grounds, with a
limitation in the ordinance of vacation that said grounds and the
buildings erected thereon shall be used for the education of one sex, or
in any other particular and limited manner, and such university or
college shall have erected buildings on such vacated grounds, and when
the municipality which passed the ordinance of vacation has by
subsequent ordinance modified or repealed the limitation in such
ordinance, or has by ordinance, or conveyance of such vacated ground to
such university or college, estopped itself from insisting upon such
limitation, such estoppel shall be valid against the general public to
the same extent as against said municipality; and it shall be lawful for
such university or college to use and control such grounds for any
purpose authorized by its act of incorporation or by such subsequent
ordinance or conveyance in as full and ample a manner as other grounds
held by such university or college for the objects for which the same
was incorporated.
