The Ohlone Community College District is a single college district with two campuses and a thriving e-campus. Officially named Ohlone College on June 18, 1967, the institution honors the early Ohlone who lived in the Fremont and Newark area and much of the surrounding San Francisco Bay for hundreds of years prior to the arrival of Europeans.〔(UC Berkeley, Fremont Community Profile, Mission San Jose Timeline )〕 A Board of Trustees was elected in 1966, which then hired the founding president, Dr. Stephen Epler, in June 1966.〔City of Fremont The First Thirty Years, by Oral History Associates, Interprint, San Francisco, 1989, pp202-230.〕 The college opened in fall 1967 at the Serra Center, a temporary site on Washington Boulevard.〔(First American Title, title report, 2005-02-28 )〕 Eventually the college went out to the community for a $10 million bond and in 1972 began construction of the new Ohlone College campus on Mission Boulevard in Fremont. Ernest J. Kump designed the original nine buildings that make up the academic village. Buildings added later to the campus include the performing arts center, the technology center, the child development center and the student services center. A second campus was constructed in Newark, CA, The Ohlone College Newark Center for Health Sciences and Technology, which opened in 2008. Including Dr. Epler, Ohlone has had only six presidents in its 45+ year history. The current president is Dr. Gari Browning, Ohlone's first female president. 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「Ohlone College」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
