History

Cape Cod Community College was established in 1961 as the second college in what became the Massachusetts community college system, opening under its first president, Irving Bartlett, in the building that is now Barnstable Town Hall. Its first class enrolled 166 students from thirty-three communities. In 1970 the college moved to its present 116-acre campus in West Barnstable, becoming the first community college in the state to build a new campus, and it remains the only community college serving Cape Cod.
