Vermont Technical College

From Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia

Vermont Technical College is a public technical college located in the village of Randolph Center, Vermont (in the town of Randolph, Vermont). The College also has campuses in other locations, notably Williston, Vermont. The college is a part of the Vermont State Colleges, a consortium of Vermont's five public colleges, governed by a common board of trustees, chancellor and Council of Presidents, each college with its own president and deans. The college prides itself on graduating students' extremely high placement rate, which as of 2007 was reported as 98% placement in industry.

Student Clubs

There are roughly 30 clubs and student organizations. Some of the most popular are:

  • Student Council (Student Advocating Body)
  • The Lambda Club (Gay Straight Alliance)
  • The Christian Fellowship
  • The VTCFR (Vermont Technical College First Responders)
  • The Vermont Technical College RFC (Rugby Football Club)

  • VTC3 (VTC's Computer Club)
  • The Horticulture Club
  • The Weightlifting Club

Athletics

Baseball

Coach Chuck Bradley has shepherded the Vermont Tech Baseball program to regional prominence in his five seasons at the helm. For many years, Vermont Tech played its baseball season only in the Fall. Traditionally, the team played a six week, sixteen game fall season. No more. Baseball has arrived-- big time--at Vermont Tech.

The 2006-07 academic year witnessed Vermont Tech's entry into the NAIA and the Sunrise Conference. Accompanying this move was the establishment of a spring baseball season, in addition to the traditional fall season. In 2007-08 the baseball team will played a full 50 game schedule, evenly divided between spring and fall.

If you love baseball, Vermont Tech is a great place to play. You'll be in action for nearly seven months of the academic year. Our home field, cared for painstakingly by Coach Bradley himself, is one of the most beautiful small college fields in all of New England. When the weather prohibits outside practice, the team moves indoors into the SHAPE facility.
