Cape Cod Community College, known locally as "4-C's" or "The Harvard of the Middle Cape", is a two-year community college located in West Barnstable, Massachusetts. Cape Cod Community College was established in 1961, the second institution to open as part of what is now a 15 community college system in Massachusetts.
