  HCC at 50: A Blast From the Past Time: 10:00am - 9:00pm Locations: Online Details:

  HCC at 50: A Blast from the Past - Daily Life from the First Two Decades

  On behalf of the Howard Community College (HCC) 50^th Anniversary History Committee, we are pleased to present this collection of photos from the college archives. This collection presents photographs and documents depicting daily life on the HCC campus during the first two decades. From its earliest years, HCC has been more than just a place of scholarship, but has served as a locality for events, personal and community growth, and diversity.

   

  We hope that you enjoy this look back at some familiar faces, now-gone locations, fun events, as well as a look into the inner workings of what made our campus tick in the 1970’s and 1980’s. While not all photos have attributions, we must acknowledge the early work of Quent Kardos, who was the college photographer through this time period. His lens did not just capture the events at hand, but also the character of the places and people in these images.

   

  We hope you enjoy this look back and find, as we did, some of what makes Howard Community College a great place to learn, work, and grow. On behalf of the 50^th Anniversary History Committee:

  Janelle Broderick, Brian Cumer, Thomas Engelman, Rosemary Williams
