Treasure Valley Community College is a community college located in Ontario, Oregon, at the western edge of the Treasure Valley.

History

Treasure Valley Community College opened in 1962 holding afternoon and evening classes at Ontario High School. Since then TVCC has grown to 14 major buildings, including the Laura Moore Cunningham Science Center, which officially opened its doors in 2013.

Campus

The rural campus occupies 90 acres on the western edge of the Treasure Valley. The nearby Four Rivers Cultural Center houses the Meyer-McLean theater used by the college to present plays and other purposes.

The Caldwell Center is a satellite of TVCC and offers college preparation, college transfer, and professional-technical classes in a three-story building built in downtown Caldwell on the banks of Indian Creek. The Caldwell Center offers a broad range of student services including advising, placement testing, registration, financial aid assistance, and career planning. Students also have access to tutorial support and student activities. Classes may be taken face-to-face, via interactive video conference with the Ontario campus, or on the web. Students may take classes at both the Caldwell Center and the Ontario campus.

Organization and administration

TVCC leadership is composed of professionals in the Western Treasure Valley. President Dana M. Young, the fifth president in college history, has led TVCC since July, 2010.

Academic profile

The college serves approximately 6,000 students a year, 900 of them full-time. TVCC also provides outreach services in Harney County at the Burns Outreach Center, at the Lakeview Outreach Center and the Warner Creek Correctional Institution in Lakeview, and at the Snake River Correctional Institution in Ontario.

Student government

The Associated Student Government (ASG) at TVCC is a diverse group of students who serve as a liaison between the administration and the student body.

One of the most successful programs ASG promotes is a "Food for Thought" forum, where students offer opinions and fill out surveys. As a bribe for their time, ASG provides a small treat, such as chocolate covered strawberries^{[citation needed]} or a slice of pizza.^{[citation needed]}
