| History |
|
NCCC was founded November 8, 1962 and was opened on September 30, 1963 to 343 students. The original campus was just the old office for the Nabisco factory in Niagara Falls, New York, and was nicknamed "Nabisco Tech". As the college grew, more buildings were acquired: the old Third Street School, several houses, the Olin Laboratory, a Mormon Church, the Parkway Inn, the Waldorf-Niagara Motel, and part of the DeVeaux School. It was not until the move to Sanborn that the college offered more than five curricula.
