The Taylorsville Redwood Campus is the epicenter of the College with 12 buildings spread across two blocks along Redwood Road and extending four blocks west. With a full-sized student center, fountains, an amphitheater and bustling sidewalks, the Redwood site epitomizes a college campus. It’s come a long way; just 35 years ago a small barn was the only edifice built on the site.
Before the barn came tumbling down and the walls of the first College buildings went up on Redwood Road, the Salt Lake Community College functioned as the Salt Lake Area Vocational School in downtown Salt Lake City for 20 years. Educational priorities met the needs of the times; the primary focus of the school was to train workers.
In the early days, classes included cabinet making, sewing, drafting, welding, commercial art, business (secretarial skills) and food service. Over the course of more than 50 years, funding, enrollment and curriculum changes have been made to meet the growing needs of the greater Salt Lake area. Today, the College is one of the largest higher educational institutions in the state. Over 60,000 students enroll in daytime, evening, online and continuing education courses through the College. With 14 different sites, the College brings convenience and educational opportunities to communities from Tooele to Draper. While each site is unique, all are committed to providing excellent education and putting students first; the academic standards are set at the Redwood Campus and applied to all College sites. At the Taylorsville Redwood Campus, students enjoy plenty of amenities. The Lifetime Activities Center (LAC) gives students, faculty and staff access to a full-sized gym with state-of-the-art equipment, a running track, locker room, racquetball and tennis courts.
