Introduction

Historica 1 Overview By an Act of the South Carolina 1-egislature in May 1961, an extensive statewide program of technical training was initiated through the establishment of regional Technical Education Centers to aid in the economic development of the state.

In November 1961 Spartanburg County requested and received approval to provide a technical education center for the citizens in its region. The Spartanburg County Commission for Technical Training was formed to guide the development of the new center. Mr.Tracy J.Caines was the first Chairmanof thecommissionand Mr. P. Dan Hull was named as the first Director of the Spartanburg County Technical Education Center.

By May 1963 the center occupied its first building at the present site of Spartanburg Technical College. One hundred and fifty students enrolled in nine industrial and engineering technology training programs and an extension course in supervisory development in the Fall Term, 1963.

From 1963 through 1973 Spartanburg County Technical Education Center experienced rapid growth. Enrollment in academic programs for the 1973 Fall Ten11 reached 1,342, which included new programs in business, engineering technology, and health sciences. Seven of the programs started in the mid-sixties were discontinued by 1973 in response to changing economic developn~ent needs.

In 1969 Mr. James P. Led better, Jr., was elected Chairman of thespartanburg County Commission for Technical Training and Mr. Joe D. Gault became the second Director of the center in 1970.

During this first decade, the center received accreditation by the Southern Associa- tion of Colleges and Schools (SACS) in December 1970. Also, a second classroom/ laboratory building was constructed during this time. The East and West buildings now represented a significant core for future expansion.

Recognizing the institution's broadening scope and depth of academic program offerings, in 1974 the Spartanburg Technical Education Center was officially designated as Spartanburg Technical College.

From 1974 through 1984 the College experienced steady growth in enrollment and a period of dynamic change. By the 1984 Fall Term, enrollment was 1,653. Many new academic programs were added to the curriculum during this second decade and the names and content of some programs were updated to reflect changes in technology. By 1984 the College offered over 40 associate degree and diploma programs. Custom-designed training provided through the College's Continuing Education/Industry and Business Training Division received increased emphasis during this period.

In the Fall of 1980 construction of two additional buildings were completed. The 32,000 square feet Tracy J . Gaines Learning Resource Center houses the library, media center, bookstore, shipping and receiving, several classrooms, conference

Introduction

rooms, and a300-seat auditorium. The20,000 square feet IndustrialTraining Facility houses the College's welding and Ford ASSET programs. Additionally, in 1983 the College purchased the James P. Ledbetter, Jr. Administration Building. By the end of the second decade, the College had acquired a total of 104 acres of land off Interstate I-Iighway 85, and grown to a 264,201 total square feet complex.

In 1983, following the death of Mr. James P. Ledbetter, Jr., Mr. Charles R. Sanders was elected Chairman of the Spartanburg County Commission for Technical Education. In July 1985, upon the retirement of Mr. Joe D. Gault, Dr. Jack A. Powers became President of Spartanburg Technical College.

During the period 1985 through 1993, the College has experienced tremendous enrollment growth, with the 1993 Fall Term realizingover2,500students. Academic programs have been consistently reviewed, upgraded, and modernized to reflect current technologies.

Developing improved networks and working relationships have highlighted this third decade. Responding to theSouth Carolina Governor's 1988 Initiative for Work Force Excellence, Spartanburg Technical College developed the largest basic skills training program for employees in the workplace within the state.

In the Fall of 1990 the College launched a new University Transfer I'rogram tluough the establishment of Associate Degree programs in Arts and Sciences. This addition to the traditional technical curriculum significantly broadened the College's educational mission.

Spartanburg Technical College linked with Internet in 1994, the world's largest and most powerful computer network. The College now has direct access to the worldwide "information highway."

In 1993, upon the retirement of Mr. Charles R. Sanders, Rev. Dr. Benjamin P. Snoddy was elected the fourth chairman of the Spartanburg County Commission for Technical Education. With new leadership from the Commission, the college looks forward to continuing its history of quality service.
