Ohlone College
Ohlone College (Ohlone or OC; /oʊˈloʊni/) is a public community college, a member of the California Community College System, with its main campus in Fremont and a second campus in Newark. The Ohlone Community College District serves Fremont, Newark, and parts of Union City.
Ohlone offers 61 associate degree programs leading to university transfer or careers and over 100 vocational certificate programs that provide job skill training.
Established as a California Community College in 1965 following voter approval, Ohlone College serves the cities of Fremont and Newark and parts of Union City in the Alameda County, southeast of San Francisco Bay. The Ohlone Community College District includes two campuses and an e-campus.
The college was named Ohlone College on June 18, 1967, in honor of the Ohlone people, whose unceded lands include much of the surrounding area.
A board of trustees was elected in 1966, which then hired the founding president, Stephen Epler, in June 1966. The college opened in fall 1967 at the Serra Center, a temporary site on Washington Boulevard. Eventually the college issued a municipal bond for $10 million and in 1972 began construction of the new Ohlone College campus on Mission Boulevard in Fremont.
Ernest J. Kump designed the original nine buildings that make up the academic village. Buildings added later to the campus include the performing arts center, the technology center, the child development center and the student services center. A second campus in Newark, The Ohlone College Newark Center for Health Sciences and Technology, opened in 2008.
Ohlone has had eight presidents. Eric Bishop was selected to be the school's seventh president in 2020 and Charles S. Sasaki was appointed president in 2023.
Ohlone fields teams in seven varsity sports (six men's, seven women's) including tennis, swimming, baseball, basketball, soccer and water polo, and is a member of the CCCAA (California Community College Athletics Association) and the Coast Conference.
