History and Characteristics Narrative Del Mar College was founded in 1935 under the control of the board of trustees of the Corpus Christi Independent School District to provide two years of post-secondary education. In 1951, the College became the Corpus Christi Junior College District, an independent political subdivision. In 1999, Del Mar College District was adopted as the official name of the institution. Del Mar College is a non-profit, open-admission institution whose mission is to provide access to quality education, workforce preparation and lifelong learning for student and community success. The College’s service area consists of Nueces, San Patricio, Aransas and Kenedy Counties and part of Kleberg County, all in the Texas Coastal Bend. Online instruction and dual credit courses are offered to ensure quality service to the entire region. Student body characteristics are: 44 percent men and 56 percent women; 65 percent Hispanic, 25 percent White/non-Hispanic, 3 percent African American and 6 percent other (includes Asian, Native American, unknown and international). Over 90 percent of students come from Corpus Christi and the surrounding area and the rest from other areas of Texas, forty-five other U.S. states and territories and thirty-two other countries. Unique institutional features include the College’s emphasis on workforce training partnerships with local industry and its consistent ranking as one of the top associate degree- producing community colleges in the nation for Hispanic and minority students. The 271 tenure-track faculty members range from instructor, assistant professor, associate professor to professor. 6 Part II: 2. List of Degrees Part II: 2.
