Terra State Community College

The early 1970s witnessed a significant physical expansion with the construction of three new buildings on Cedar Street, adjacent to the Vanguard Vocational Center.

In 1979, work began on a new campus on Napoleon Road, culminating in the completion of Roy Klay Hall—the first building named in honor of Terra’s founding president.

The Skilled Trades Center opened its doors in 2010, providing state-of-the-art facilities for programs such as HVAC-R, automotive, and welding.

In 2023, recognizing the demand for specialized skills, Terra State Community College expanded its capacity for welding and CNC instruction.

In the fall of 2018, Terra State became the second community college in Ohio to offer residential housing.

[7][8] The first dorm, The Landings, cost 19.6 million dollars, and had a capacity to house 225 students with 93,445 square feet of space.

[9] In the fall of 2019 Terra State began work with the Sandusky County Parks District to connect their campus with the North Coast Inland Bike Trail, and by extension Fremont.
