Raritan Valley Community CollegeHISTORYRaritan Valley Community College was originally founded on November 16, 1965, as Somerset CountyCollege by resolution of the Somerset County Board of Freeholders. The College was officially establishedApril 5, 1966 by the appointment of a nine-member Board of Trustees. Somerset County College opened itsdoors to 229 students on September 12, 1968 at its temporary home Green Brook High School. In May 1970,the first commencement was held for 75 graduates.In July 1968, the College found a permanent home with the purchase of a 240-acre site in North Branch.With the first phase of construction underway, an interim facility, the current Arts Building, was built tohouse all College operations. In September 1973, students finally moved into new, permanent facilities thatincluded Hunterdon and Somerset Halls. The second phase of construction was completed in 1975, addingto the complex a new College Center, which included the cafeteria, bookstore, Student Enrollment Center,and Student Activities area, along with a Physical Education building that featured a full gymnasium, fitnesscenter, and swimming pool. The campus continued to grow with the opening in 1985 of a new library and1,000-seat Theatre.The College's major redefining moment came in November 1986 when freeholders from Hunterdon andSomerset approved co-sponsorship of the College. The first bi-county college in the state was officiallynamed “Raritan Valley Community College” in July 1987.With the merger and new name, the College continued to expand. March 1990 marked the official openingof the 100-seat Planetarium. As part of the College's 25th anniversary celebration in 1993, the library wasnamed to honor founding trustee Evelyn S. Field, and the Theatre was named for founding trustee EdwardNash. In June 1993, a Child Care Center opened to serve the children of RVCC students, faculty, staff, andadministrators. The Center for Advanced Teaching and Technology, which opened in 1994, broughtmultimedia resources into the classroom via fiber optics, enabling RVCC to become the first communitycollege in the state to offer the new classroom technology. Four years later, the state-of-the-art ConferenceCenter opened, serving as a conduit to bring the corporate and academic communities together.Other additions to the College complex include the Institute for Holocaust and Genocide Studies and the PaulRobeson Institute for Ethics, Leadership and Social Justice. In September 2002, the Christine Todd WhitmanScience Center opened. The facility houses the biology, biotechnology, chemistry, physics and engineeringlaboratories, as well as a lecture hall that provides interactive centers for teaching using technology. AnAcademic Support Center opened in September 2005, offering students centralized tutoring services for allacademic areas. The West Building opened in fall 2007. The 18-classroom building houses the ComputerScience department. In a far-reaching effort to enhance workforce training programs for Somerset Countyresidents while reducing administrative costs by sharing services, in July 2010 RVCC assumedadministration of all post-secondary programs previously offered by the Somerset County TechnologyInstitute (SCTI) in Bridgewater. The 3M Observatory, located next to the RVCC Planetarium, opened inspring 2013 and the Ray Bateman Center for Student Life and Leadership opened in early 2014. New capitalcampaigns are under way to continually expand the campus.Institutional Profile 2019-2020P a g e ii
