Central Texas College (CTC) is a community college located in Killeen, Texas, which was founded in 1965. It has a number of branch campuses around the world. ==History== Central Texas College was established by the citizens of Central Texas in 1965 to serve the western section of Bell County, Texas. The campus was constructed on more than 500 acres of land donated by Fort Hood between Killeen and Copperas Cove. In September 1967, the school opened its doors to 2,068 students. CTC has been accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools since 1969.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 CTC History )〕 As defined by the Texas Legislature,〔Texas Education Code, Section 130.171, "Central Texas College District Service Area".〕 the official service area of CTC comprises: * All of Coryell, Hamilton, Lampasas, Llano, Mason, Mills, and San Saba Counties * Killeen Independent School District, located in Bell County * Copperas Cove Independent School District, located in Bell and Coryell Counties * Fort Hood and North Fort Hood in Bell County * Brady, Lohn, and Rochelle school districts located within McCulloch County * Burnet Consolidated Independent School District located within Burnet County * Florence and Marble Falls school districts * The portion of the Lampasas Independent School District located within Burnet and Bell Counties Due to its proximity to the US Army installation at Fort Hood, Central Texas College has evolved from a small junior college into a community college catering to the military. CTC instituted classes and programs on Fort Hood in 1970 and in Europe in 1974. Success with the military led to branch campuses at military installations such as Fort Leonard Wood in Missouri, South Korea, and on-ship with the Atlantic and Pacific Fleets of the US Navy in 1976. By the early 1980s, CTC offered classes to military personnel in the Pacific Command, Alaska, and Panama. CTC offered classes for the Texas Department of Criminal Justice in the prisons at Gatesville, Texas, in 1976.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 CTC History )〕 Central Texas College had a nationally ranked tennis team in the early 1970s, playing as the Golden Eagles. In 2013, a campus-wide vote led to the selection of CTC's new official mascot, the Eagle. Classes are held at many military bases around the world, and the college ranks fifth in the nation among all colleges and universities in terms of online enrollment. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Central Texas College」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
