Marking a significant milestone, the college proudly celebrated its centennial year from 2018-19. Mason City Junior College (MCJC), as we were once known, welcomed its inaugural class on September 9, 1918. Over the course of a century, the name evolved, the campus shifted, and fresh faces have continually graced our halls. Yet, our steadfast dedication to the students and the broader North Iowa community has endured without waver.
Our centennial celebrations began with a bang at the Friday Night Live event in Mason City’s Central Park on June 15, 2018, culminating in a dazzling Night to Shine Gala on June 8, 2019. Throughout this year, our presence was felt in parades, fairs, and myriad community engagements across North Iowa, all captured in our online Flickr album.
