About this School
Broward Community College is a publicly-funded community college, founded in 1959. With the appointment of a local Advisory Committee under State Board of Education Regulations in October of that year, the College began to develop. Dr. Joe B. Rushing undertook his responsibilities as the first President on April 7, 1960. The following Autumn, with an enrollment of 701 students, the College opened its doors in buildings formerly used by the Naval Air Station at the Fort Lauderdale/Hollywood International Airport. From this beginning, the College has experienced solid growth in facilities, number of students, and quality of programs. When the first permanent building was completed in August 1963, the College moved to its present Central Campus location on Southwest Davie Road in Davie.
