  SALT LAKE COMMUNITY COLLEGE: A COLLEGE ON THE MOVE 1948 - 1998

From converted horse stalls and hay lofts to modern laboratories and high technology, Salt Lake Community College has experienced a remarkable one-half century. Opening its doors in September 1948 to 175 students registered in 14 courses, the College had modest beginnings.

Now, more than 50 years later, Salt Lake Community College serves over 53,000 students, who are registered in more than 80 credit and non-credit vocational and traditional academic courses at ten locations throughout Salt Lake and Tooele counties. Indeed, one of the institution’s founding fathers, E. Allen Bateman, Superintendent of Salt Lake Public Instruction, was correct when he predicted, "The school will become one of the greatest vocational institutions in the Intermountain area." The College has not only achieved that vision, but has expanded to become a prominent, nationally recognized community college.
