Santa Barbara City College Turns 100
Santa Barbara City College invites the community to attend a Centennial Kick-off Celebration marking the College’s 100th anniversary on Thursday, August 20 from noon to 1:15 p.m. at SBCC’s LaPlaya Stadium.
Superintendent/President Dr. Andreea Serban will make introductory remarks, and Professor Joe White will serve as program master of ceremonies.
Two special pieces of work created exclusively for the Centennial will be presented for the first time: the SBCC Music Department’s Brass Quintet will play “Centennial Fanfare,” and Professor David Starkey, current Santa Barbara Poet Laureate, will read his Centennial poem.
In a light-hearted turn, Professor White and colleagues will present a humorous look at College and historical highlights during the past 100 years since SBCC’s founding. Light refreshments will be served.
SBCC will commemorate its Centennial throughout the 2009-10 academic year with a number of special and ongoing activities and events. Established by the Santa Barbara High School District in 1909, SBCC is one of the oldest community colleges in California.
