LCCC Celebrates 50 Years
Laramie County Community College was founded 5o years ago and the feature photo is of actual signing of the charter establishing the college.
“This is really our chance to thank the community for all they’ve done for LCCC since 1968. At one point, it was called ‘the college that cannot be built’ … and now we’re the largest community college in Wyoming with a thriving campus and thousands of student success stories. This is our chance to celebrate with the people who helped make it all possible.” shared Troy Rumpf, Manager, Strategic Communications and Marketing, Public Relations
