History

In 1946 the Borger Independent School District applied to the Texas State Board of Education for authority to establish a junior college.  Borger Junior College District was created by a vote of local citizens on June 15, 1946.

The college served primarily as a junior college offering arts and sciences courses until 1973 when the curricula was expanded to include vocational, occupational-technical, workforce development, and allied health programs, along with an extensive array of continuing education and community service courses have been added to the curricula.

During the 1970’s Frank Phillips College established off-campus sites in Canadian, Dalhart and Perryton, TX.   A few years’ later telecommunications became a new avenue for learning.  DECANET became the network system for the four schools and off campus microwave programs began.  The college would begin offering continuing education, academic, vocational and concurrent classes to Dalhart.  This was only the beginning of the changes and growth of Frank Phillips College in Dalhart.

As time passed changes took place and there came a new awakening for the people of Dalhart.  The agricultural industries had taken an interest in the Dalhart area and employment opportunities were abundant.  The sleeping giant was aroused and people who never dreamed of obtaining more education began to realize that Frank Phillips College could offer education to them which would change their lives with the new job opportunities available.  People from all walks of life and of all ages came for education.  Agriculture industries had a need for accommodations for the Continuing Education classes they needed and Frank Phillips College provided a place for them.  New community services were provided by the college.

Support for Frank Phillips College has grown and has created a need for more diversified instruction.  Frank Phillips College has become a vital part of the much needed educational explosion, so much so that two counties have joined together to support a new building and campus so generously funded by a local donor.

Leaders, men and women with vision, have joined together to expand the meaning of our motto, “Right for You. Right Here. Right From the Start.”  We are “Changing Lives through Education.”
