Merced College Matters: Campus to celebrate 50 years
The rest, as they say, is history.
And, it's history -- Merced College's history -- that will be the focus of a yearlong schedule of activities commencing in fall 2012 and running through spring 2013. A 50th anniversary steering committee has been meeting over the past several months to plan a calendar of events that will acknowledge the college's past while setting the stage for its next half-century.
"It doesn't take much imagination to realize how much Merced College has meant to our local communities," said Robin Shepard, the college's foundation director and public information officer. "I know that if it weren't for Merced College, I may have never had the opportunity to go on to a university. The same is true for several members of my family, and the same is true for so many other local families."
There's good reason to celebrate as the college has literally and positively affected the lives of hundreds of thousands of local residents over the past five decades. It's been, to use an old college marketing slogan, "A Great Place to Grow."
