Description

LBCC was established in 1966 as a two-year public college to serve the residents of Linn and Benton counties. Because our students' needs are so diverse and we offer a variety of educational opportunities.

The mission of Linn-Benton Community College is to provide accessible, quality, life-long learning opportunities to serve the present and future needs of the community. The college works in cooperation with public school systems and with other institutions of higher education. The college is community based and is committed to student success through responsive and flexible educational programs designed to meet individual student needs.

LBCC's 104-acre Albany campus is just two miles south of Albany, Oregon, and 11 miles east of Corvallis. The campus houses a learning resource center, bookstore, 500-seat theater, library, conference facility, and student lounge/recreation rooms. Dining facilities include a cafeteria, a cafe and a restaurant operated by students in the Culinary Arts program. The original 13 contemporary brick buildings are connected by covered walkways that encircle a landscaped courtyard. Additional buildings include the Periwinkle Child Development Center, the Luckiamute Center, physical education and sports facilities, and a greenhouse. An LBCC horse management facility is located a short 1.5 miles from the main campus.
