Reading Area Community College 50th Anniversary

Reading Area Community College is celebrating the 50th anniversary of its founding in 1971. 

The institution was initially sponsored by the Reading School District and enrollment was 265 students. The college operated from several buildings throughout Reading during its early years until it acquired the Holiday Inn (the current Berks Hall building) in 1978. On July 1, 1991, the Berks County Board of Commissioners assumed sponsorship of the college and five years later the college completed a campus expansion plan that transformed it into an attractive city-based campus.
