School Description

Provided by Linn-Benton Community College

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.

From Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia

Linn-Benton Community College (LBCC) is a two year junior college, located in Linn County, Oregon.

Accreditation

LBCC is accredited by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities. Credits earned at LBCC can be transferred to any university within the Oregon University System.

History

LBCC was established in 1966 with the purpose of supporting the citizens of Linn and Benton counties.

In the 1950s a community college was a conceptual idea, however, it wasn't until 1964 that a study was conducted to assess the need of such an institution. The results of this study showed that post-high school opportunities, educationally, were non-existent and that many graduating high school students were interested in a local community college.

It was then that Linn County asked for the support of Benton County in assistance for foundation of a college in the mid-Willamette Valley. This partnership reached success on December 6, 1966 when, by referendum vote, Linn and Benton County voters approved the formation of a college district by nearly 3:1.

The first classes began in 1967 during the same year LBCC started operations full time. The campus headquarters was located on the corner of First St. and Ellsworth St., however, classes were offered at rented locations throughout the LBCC college district.

During this time, six occupational programs were offered. This included a sewage waste/treatment program that was described to be the "first of its kind offered in the country". Tuition was $60 per term.

In February, 1970 a permanent campus was slated for construction based on a vote by voters in Linn and Benton counties. Voters agreed that bonds should be issued to pay for construction. The ideal location for the campus was two miles (3 km) south of Albany, off of Pacific Blvd. The campus was dedicated in October, 1974. Takena Hall, the campus student union was completed in 1979.

In May, 1998, a dual enrollment program was established between Oregon State University and LBCC in the fields of agricultural sciences, business and engineering. This was extended to all programs in 1999.
