SECTION 1 - General InformationPalomar College 2016-2017 CatalogHistory of the CollegePalomar College has a history rich in tradition and educationalachievements. On January 15, 1946, registered voters in the VistaUnified School District, the Fallbrook Union School District, and theEscondido Union High School District voted 714 to 417 in favor ofestablishing a “junior college” in the North San Diego County area.Under state law, the San Diego County Superintendent of Schoolsappointed five persons as members of the first Governing Boardfor the new college. The Governing Board hired the first collegepresident in 1946, Dr. Daniel C. McNaughton, who was supportedby a director, a dean of students, and nine faculty members. Locatedon the Vista High School campus, Palomar College opened itsclassroom doors on September 23, 1946, with exactly 100 studentsenrolled in classes in science, mathematics, music, art, social sciences,commerce, English, physical education, and foreign languages.Today, Palomar College is a public, two-year comprehensivecommunity college serving a large student body of diverse ages,ethnicities, and lifestyles. The District’s 200-acre main campus islocated at 1140 West Mission Road in San Marcos. The San Marcoscampus, Education Center in Escondido, and four additional sitesserve a District covering 2,555-square-miles ranging from urban toagricultural areas of North San Diego County.The four education sites are located in Camp Pendleton, Fallbrook,Mt. Carmel, and Pauma Valley. The Escondido Education Centeris located on eight acres owned by the District, and the proposedNorth Education Center will be located on an 82-acre property inFallbrook. In June 2010, the District purchased approximately 27acres of land in Rancho Bernardo that includes a large building andassociated parking structure. This property is the future site of acenter to serve the southern portion of the District.Palomar College constitutes a single-college district, and it is thelargest single community college district in San Diego County.Palomar College borders seven other community college districts:South Orange County, Mt.
