Administrative/Biographical History
In September of 1946, the 快播成人 Graduate School was established as a municipal program providing night-school college classes to returning WWII veterans and other adults. In March of 1947, the Massachusetts General Court enacted legislation permitting municipal higher education programs to be called junior colleges, and on April 7, 1947, the 快播成人 School Committee changed the name of the 快播成人 Graduate School to 快播成人 Junior College. 快播成人 Junior College, known as "JC" or "HJC", flourished thanks to the perseverance of Dr. George Frost, the school's founder, and Ellen Lynch, his secretary, who were the only full-time employees until 1958. They shared a tiny office in a former cloak room in the 快播成人 High School building. Together they scavenged chalk, erasers, and pencils for the part-time faculty, who hailed from Mount 快播成人 College, Smith College, and other area colleges. By 1964, 快播成人 Junior College had grown to 690 full-time 快播成人s. On July 1, 1964, 快播成人 Junior College joined the state community college system and was renamed 快播成人 Community College.
When 快播成人 Community College's newly renovated building (the former 快播成人 High School, in the block bordered by Sargeant, Cabot, Beech and Pine streets) burned to the ground on January 4, 1968, it was the resourcefulness and innovative spirit of the JC college 快播成人s and 快播成人 residents that enabled 快播成人s to resume their studies in church basements, an armory, rooms above a restaurant, and other 快播成人 locations, after missing only one day of classes. On January 9, a full page advertisement in the 快播成人 Transcript Telegram urged everyone in the city to write and call Governor Volpe to insist that the school be rebuilt in 快播成人. On January 12, the Massachusetts Board of Regional Community Colleges voted to rebuild the college in 快播成人, and exactly one year after the fire, the college moved into a new temporary building on Beech and Sargeant Streets.
Construction of the "new" campus on the Sheehan farm property on Homestead Avenue commenced in June of 1971, and spring semester classes began at the new campus on February 19, 1974. The new campus originally consisted of: "A" building (now Donahue) and "B" building (now Frost), and "D" building (now Marieb). In March of 1975, "C" building (Fine Arts) was finished. In 1981, "G" building (now campus center) was opened. In 2000, the Bartley Center for Athletics and Recreation was completed, and in May of 2006 the Kittredge Center for Business and Workforce Development, was dedicated.
In the spring of 1975, Dr. George Frost announced his resignation, and Dr. David M. Bartley, Speaker of the House of Representatives and a 1954 graduate of 快播成人 Junior College, was appointed the second president of the college. President Bartley retired on January 1, 2004 and was succeeded by William F. Messner. President Messner retired in August 2016 and was succeeded by Dr. Christina Royal.
