Cowley College held a proclamation celebration Wednesday in the Robert Brown Theatre to recognize the 100th anniversary of the school, which marks the first official day of classes on Sept. 12, 1922. The event also shared the vision for the future Career and Technical Education Center to be built on the main campus in Arkansas City. Cowley government affairs liaison Jessica Lucas emceed Wednesday’s event. “You don’t reach 100 years of success without strong leaders, and Cowley College has certainly been richly blessed by a community of people that have dedicated themselves to supporting investments in the local community college,” Lucas said. “Those investments have resulted in life-changing educational opportunities for thousands of people, a feat made possible by the dedicated staff that has served the school for decades.”
