Rogue Community College

Rogue Community College (RCC) stands as a cornerstone of educational opportunity in Southern Oregon, dedicated to empowering students across Jackson and Josephine counties. Since its establishment, RCC has been a vital resource, providing accessible and high-quality educational programs alongside essential job training opportunities tailored to the needs of the Rogue Valley. It's a place where aspiring students can find pathways to careers, further education, and personal growth, fostering a supportive environment for all learners.

The story of RCC began in November 1970, when the electorate of Josephine County voted to bring this invaluable institution to life. Its campus carries a unique history, originally built in the late 1960s as the Fort Vannoy Job Corps Training Center – a legacy that speaks to its foundational commitment to skills development. A significant milestone occurred on May 21, 1996, when voters dramatically expanded the college district to encompass all of Jackson County, greatly increasing college access and program diversity for even more students throughout the region.

Today, RCC offers a dynamic learning environment, bolstered by continuous improvements including modern laboratory spaces and additional classrooms that complement its well-maintained facilities, first remodeled in 1989. This commitment to contemporary resources ensures students learn with the tools and technologies relevant to today's job market. Under the leadership of Dr. Randy Weber, who became the institution's seventh president in July 2022, RCC continues to evolve, focused on delivering a wider range of educational programs and robust job training to serve its community effectively and prepare students for future success.
