Mid-Plains Community College (MPCC) is a public community college in southwest Nebraska with seven campuses: one in McCook, two in North Platte, and four community campuses in Broken Bow, Imperial, Ogallala and Valentine.
It was created by a merger of McCook Junior College, North Platte Junior College, and Mid-Plains Vocational Technical School in North Platte.
[1] McCook Junior College, founded in 1926, was the oldest two-year institution in Nebraska at the time of the merger.
Mid-Plains's campuses that sponsor athletics operate separate athletic programs, and neither plays games under the "Mid-Plains" name; the McCook campus plays as the McCook CC Indians, while the North Platte campuses complete as the North Platte CC Knights.
[2][3] Both are members of the Nebraska Community College Athletic Conference of the NJCAA.
