Trinity Valley Community College (TVCC) is a community college based in Athens, Texas. It has four campuses serving three counties in the southeast of the state. TVCC operates four campuses serving the Texas counties of Anderson, Henderson, and Kaufman, southeast of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex: *The Henderson County Campus, which also serves as TVCC's headquarters, is in Athens. *The Anderson County Campus is in Palestine. Texas Commissioner of Agriculture Todd Staples is a former faculty member at the Anderson campus. *The Kaufman County Campus is in Terrell. *The TVCC Health Science Center is in Kaufman. This campus is adjacent to Presbyterian Hospital of Kaufman and is dedicated specifically to healthcare courses. (General courses must be taken at one of the other campuses in the TVCC system.) It also operates a distance learning program for the University of Texas at Arlington's RN to BSN program. ==History== TVCC was founded in 1946 as Henderson County Junior College in Athens, the county seat. The current name, adopted in September 1986, was taken from the Trinity River, which bisects the region. By that time it had expanded to serve residents of more than one county. TVCC began its expansion to a multi-site campus in 1969 when it began to offer courses at a nearby Texas Department of Criminal Justice unit. In 1972 TVCC started offering courses in Palestine (the Anderson County seat), and in 1975 opened a separate campus facility three miles north of town. In 1973 TVCC started offering courses in Terrell (its first expansion into neighboring Kaufman County) and opened a separate campus facility there in 1986. Finally, in 1983 TVCC opened its first specialized campus, the TVCC Health Science Center in Kaufman (the Kaufman County seat). 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「Trinity Valley Community College」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
