THE COLLEGE
HISTORY
The State of North Carolina recognized the need to provide additional post-
high school opportunities as early as 1957. The development of industrial
education centers was approved by the General Assembly, and by 1962,
twenty (20) institutions were approved.
In the fall of 1963, the Onslow County Board of Education and the Superin¬
tendent of Schools, Mr. J. Paul Tyndall, asked the Onslow County Commis¬
sioners to purchase forty (40) acres of property on U.S. Highway 17 for the
establishment of an industrial education center. The newly established Onslow
Industrial Education Center was a unit of the Lenoir County Technical Insti¬
tute.
The untiring efforts of Representative Hugh A. Ragsdale, Representative
William D. Mills, and Senator Carl Venters secured appropriation from the
1965 General Assembly to establish a separate institution for Onslow County.
The North Carolina State Board of Education approved the Onslow County
Industrial Education Center on July 1,1965.
The continuous increase in enrollment of the Industrial Education Center
gave evidence of the wide and varied needs of the area. Local support was
necessary for the growing institute. The people of Onslow County, by refer¬
endum in the fall of 1965, voted for a seven-cents-per-hundred-dollars evalua¬
tion on property for the center. The Board of Trustees, realizing that a tech¬
nical institute could more adequately provide vocational and technical educa¬
tion opportunity for the area, requested that the State Board of Education
grant technical institute status to the center. Onslow Industrial Education
Center became Onslow Technical Institute on May 4,1967.
A rapidly increasing enrollment and continued educational demands on
Onslow Technical Institute encouraged the Board of Trustees to request com¬
munity college status for the institute. Onslow Technical Institute was granted
community college status July 1,1970, and became Coastal Carolina Com¬
munity College.
In 1972, with the dedication of the Hugh A. Ragsdale Building, the Board of
Trustees started the relocation of the college to a new campus on Western
Boulevard. For several years thereafter, the college operated on a split-
campus until relocation was completed in 1978.
