Celebrating 50 Years of Excellence !
1972-2022
In the late 1960s , establishing a publicly-supported community college for Hernando and Pasco counties seemed an insurmountable goal — yet local educators , business owners , parents and future students were determined . From the beginning , the vision for the College was clear : To offer residents an opportunity for accessible , affordable , quality higher education and workforce training regardless of age , race , economic status or prior academic performance .
PHSC has always been — and forever will be — the College that accepts students as they are , nurtures their talents and abilities , instills confidence and skills and challenges them to reach their highest potential . Our nearly 60,000 alumni , representing virtually every field , share a common history – graduation from PHSC .
The pages within chronicle the College ’ s growth and development through five remarkable decades that bring us to this milestone — PHSC ’ s Gold Anniversary .
By acknowledging our past , we look toward the future — and another 50 years of service to the community .
