Delta College has continued, without interruption, the educational opportunities that were previously provided by Bay City Junior College. In the mid-1950’s, as the demand for education beyond high school increased in the tri-county area, the percentage of students attending Bay City Junior College from outside the K-12 Bay City Public School District steadily increased. The enrollment was approximately 50 percent non-residents, with about 40 percent of the enrollment coming from Saginaw. Early in 1955, seven community leaders from Bay, Midland and Saginaw met to discuss the possibility of a tri-county college. For this reasons Delta collage was opened in 1961. Delta College is a diverse learning-centered community based on integrity and respect. From a foundation of leadership, they use innovation and teamwork to achieve excellence. Delta College is a responsive, dynamic community college. They educate, inspire, challenge and support a diverse community of learners to achieve academic, professional and personal excellence.
