Laramie County Community College (in Cheyenne, the capital of the state of Wyoming) was established in 1968. It sits on a 271-acre campus with 22 buildings, with more currently under construction in 2016.
It offers 67 programs and concentrations leading to associate degrees, and 25 credit programs leading to certificates of completion. Many of its associate-degree students go on to complete 4-year degrees at the University of Wyoming, in the city of Laramie in neighboring Albany County.
Besides the usual liberal-arts programs (art, music, English, etc.) there are a number of health and technology programs in the sciences and trades (e.g., dental hygiene, diesel technology, wind energy, welding technology, and nursing). There are three residence halls with a capacity of 250.
The school has a multiple-award-winning newspaper, "Wingspan," published by students, and a yearly literary and art magazine, "High Plains Register." There's a fine-arts gallery on campus, with rotating shows of student artwork and visiting artists. There's also an outstanding physical-education complex, and an arena for rodeos and agricultural shows.
A member of the National Junior College Athletic Association, LCCC competes in men's basketball, women's volleyball, and men's and women's soccer in Region IX. The college has a rodeo team and is a member of the National Intercollegiate Rodeo Association.
As a growing institution, major construction is taking place in 2016 on two new buildings (north and east sides): a Flexible Industrial Technology building and a Student Services and University Center.
