Full time to part time

Employment in Illinois is "at-will". This means that you can quite any time for any reason or no reason at all and your employer can terminate you (or change your employment status) anytime for any reason or no reason at all unless the reason is a particular illegal one (i.e. race discrimination). In this case you have not identified the motivation for changing your employment status from full to part time to be an illegal one.
