Located on the golden plains of southeastern Colorado, the College has developed a special concern for the educational needs of Prowers, Baca, Kiowa, and Cheyenne Counties. Yet its unique programs, small class sizes, dedicated staff, and idyllic setting make it a preferred educational destination for the State of Colorado, the nation, and the world. Students choose Lamar Community College for various reasons. Some seek skills and knowledge to enter the workforce. Still others come to study in one of our signature programs, to seek a bachelor's degree through one of our partnerships with several four-year colleges and universities, or to continue their athletic careers against top-level competition.
