LANE COMMUNITY COLLEGE

The Eugene Vocational School was established in the 1930's to provide manual education and training to high school students and unemployed adults. In the 1950's, community-oriented adult education classes were added, and local educational leaders recognized the need to expand into a regional institution that would better serve the diverse needs of the wider community. Following the October 1964 election, Lane Community College was founded by a vote of local citizens, and the main campus opened in 1968. Lane's second campus opened in Florence in 1976, and the Cottage Grove and Downtown Eugene campuses opened a year later... Lane is the community's college: we provide comprehensive, accessible, quality, learning-centered educational opportunities that promote student success... Lane's nationally renowned radio station, KLCC, was established in 1967, and is the most powerful public radio station signal in Oregon! KLCC is a charter member of NPR, serving more that 88,000 listeners each..
