History of Navarro College
Navarro College was founded in 1946 by a group of local citizens committed
to furthering the educational opportunities of the local community. The
first students began classes in September, 1946, on the site of the former Air
Activities of Texas Flight School located six miles south of Corsicana.
In 1951, the campus was moved to its present location, which currently
includes 117 acres, 13 academic buildings and 23 student housing units.
In an attempt to address the growing needs of its service area, which consists
of Navarro, Ellis, Freestone, Limestone, and Leon counties, the college began
offering courses in various locations within those areas and eventually
established three permanent centers, Navarro College South at Mexia,
located in Limestone County, the Waxahachie Campus at Waxahachie, and
the Midlothian Campus at Midlothian, both located in Ellis County.
Navarro College has had five presidents: Mr. Ray Waller, Dr. Ben Jones, Dr.
Kenneth Walker, Dr. Gerald Burson, and presently, Dr. Richard M. Sanchez.
NOTE: Due to the large attendance at commencement, three ceremonies
have been planned. At the 10 a.m. ceremony in Corsicana, students who
have earned an Associate in Arts, Associate in Arts Teaching or Associate in
Science Degree will participate in commencement. At the 1 p.m. ceremony,
students earning the Associate in Applied Science Degree and Certificate of
Completion will be recognized. A third ceremony at 4:30 p.m. in Waxahachie
will recognize graduates from Ellis County.
The Navarro College Board of Trustees, administration and staff desire that all
attendees at commencement have ample and comfortable seating. Overflow
seating will be available at the Corsicana graduations in Dawson Auditorium,
and graduation will be viewed through a closed-circuit broadcast.
