Welcome! This is a particularly exciting time in the history of our college. In April 2009 we officially changed our name to Bellevue College, dropping “Com- munity” from our name, but not our commitment to serve our community, our mission to support the excellence of all of our students, and our dedication to an open-door admission policy. We are proud that Bellevue College’s first bachelor’s degree graduates in Radiation and Imaging Sciences were awarded their diplomas in June 2009. All 19 students are currently employed in their fields, many at salaries in the upper 5-digit range. Our Bachelor of Applied Arts (BAA) in Interior Design program was launched winter quarter, 2010. If you want to complete your first two years of college at a community college, you will join the vast majority of our students and remain our primary focus. Irrespective of whether your goal is to transfer to a university, launch a career by acquiring a professional or technical degree or certificate, update your current job skills or simply enrich your life and pursue your interests, Bellevue College is a phenomenal place to help you “Become Exceptional.” Another cause for excitement is our new $34 million science building, the eleventh instructional facility on our 96- acre main campus which opened in spring 2009. The three-story, 64,000 square-foot facility houses BC’s Life Sciences and Chemistry programs providing space for classes in chemistry, biology, microbiology, oceanography and marine biology. The building contains five high-tech classrooms and 16 advanced laboratories, including DNA-sequencer and scanning-electron-microscope labs. You will love taking classes in these new facilities. Please know that all of us at BC are committed to your success. Our dedicated instructors are here specifically because they want to teach, not publish or do research. We offer you small classes that make it easy to get to know your instructors and other students and receive individual assistance. Plus, we offer comprehensive services to support your education – everything from tutoring to academic advising, career planning, internships, and adaptive assistance for disabilities and special support for those of you who are from low-income homes or are the first in your families ever to go to college. BC offers a rich college life both in and outside the classroom. With more than 80 student organizations, students have many opportunities to build leadership skills and develop connections with other students. Choices run the gamut from working on the student newspaper to singing with our nationally renowned jazz group, performing in our drama and dance ensembles to playing a varsity sport. Learning comes alive at BC through a host of exceptional learning environments, such as our planetarium with 3-D animation that allows you to walk the surface of Mars virtually. Here you can pursue your passion – or discover your passion – through our rich mix of programs and classes, exceptional instructors, outstanding speakers, and numerous campus activities. Join us and let us help you fulfill

  • Distinguished Alumnus Award
    Recipients of the Centralia College DISTINGUISHED ALUMNUS AWARD Since 1925, Centralia College has maintained a strong tradition of academic excellence and opportunity. Over the years, more than 130,000 students have turned to the college to help them reach their educational or training goals. Since 1978, the college has honored an alumnus each year for his or her achievements. We proudly present the recipients of the Centralia College Distinguished Alumnus Award. 2021 Distinguished Alumni The Watterson Family For the first time in award history, a family has been named the recipient of the annual Distinguished Alumni Award from the Centralia College Foundation. All four Watterson siblings – Ed, Bill, Marilyn, and Jim – attended Centralia College and have gone on to build strong careers and a legacy of service. Clarence and Doris Watterson raised their four children on a dairy farm in the Salzer Valley in Centralia. The children worked on the dairy as kids and paid their way through college. The three boys ended up in construction. Ed Watterson (CC Class of 1955) has been a superintendent at Schwiesow Construction since 1979 and built much of the Centralia College campus. Bill Watterson (CC Class of 1961) was a basketball standout, who went on to earn bachelor’s and master’s degrees, and start one of the largest construction companies in Alaska, Watterson Construction. Jim Watterson (CC Class of 1973) earned his bachelor’s degree in civil engineering from the University of Washington and worked all over the west before joining Watterson Construction in 1989. He is now the company president. Marilyn Watterson Weinstein graduated from Centralia College in 1963 and earned a bachelor’s degree in business education from Washington State University.
