SUNY Orange Celebrates 75 Years
Founded in 1950 as the first county-sponsored community college in New York, Orange
County Community College (SUNY Orange) will turn 75 years old in June 2025, and the
College has announced it will spend the 2024-25 academic year celebrating its 75th
anniversary.
Having influenced and educated countless residents since its early days, the College has selected “Transforming Lives for 75 Years” as its diamond anniversary theme, with an accompanying blue-and-orange-branded logo displaying that phrase.
The theme connects nicely with SUNY Orange’s newly revised vision of “strengthening our community, transforming lives” that was unanimously approved by the College’s Board of Trustees.
Celebrate with us!
