THE CHRONICLE NEWSTSJC: CELEBRATING 90 YEARS
How Trinidad got its collegeBy Cosette HenritzeThe Chronicle-News
When people in Trinidad got the news on April 17, 1925 that legislation had been approved for a junior college in their southern Colorado town they were probably skeptical. After all, the college bill had been stalled in the state house of representatives for weeks and many had lost hope that Denver politicians would ever quit argu-ing about it before the session ad-journed.
“It was a touch and go situation that spring,” U.S. Congressman J. Edgar Chenoweth would tell stu-dents at Trinidad State Jr. College many years later when he talked about the events leading up to the founding of the school. Chenoweth had been a young lawyer in Trini-dad at the time, just beginning his own career and getting a first taste of politics.
“I’m not sure anyone here today can understand just how much of a struggle it was to get this college established. The idea started with a group of forward-thinking local businessmen who realized that a college would greatly benefit the young people of the town, many of whom would never have the op-portunity of furthering their edu-cation beyond high school because they could not afford to travel the distance required to attend the big
schools such as Colorado Univer-sity in Boulder or the Teachers College in Greeley. They also knew that having a college in Trinidad would be a great asset for the local community.”
It took time to gain local accep-tance of the idea of having a college in Trinidad but once there was enough local enthusiasm for the plan, the next step was to move for-ward and gain the formal approval and eventual assistance needed for accreditation through state legis-

RATON CITY COMMISSION
City’s 5-Year Economic Development Plan unveiledBy Steve BlockThe Chronicle-News
All future success depends on
community support. That was the word at Tuesday’s Raton, N.M. City Commission meeting as the City’s new five-year economic de-velopment strategic plan was un-veiled and approved by the com-mission on a unanimous vote.
Paul Jenkins, director of Grow Raton!, one of the city’s chief eco-nomic drivers, presented the plan, which he said was the combined ef-fort of 65 interested citizens work-ing for over one year. The plan was endorsed by city staff, according to City Manager Scott Berry, and will be made available to the public at City Hall during normal business hours.
Two public meetings about the plan were held, Jenkins said, and it was subjected to the scrutiny of a Blue Ribbon Economic Develop-ment Panel. It was also presented to the city manager and various city department heads, to make sure it was a workable and desir-able plan.
“I can’t tell you how proud I am of the work these people did,” Jenkins said. “I think you will find that the goals are achievable, they’re specific, and we have ini-tiatives listed under each goal, we have timelines and measurables, and this is a plan that shouldn’t wind up sitting on anyone’s desk.”
Jenkins said the plan antici-pated no city funding in order to achieve its goals. The extent to which community got involved would determine the success of the plan, he said. The members of the group that came up with the plan have committed themselves to supporting and promoting it.
A vision statement included with the plan lauds the city’s beautiful natural environment, great transportation network, re-vitalized downtown district and high quality medical facilities, and a welcoming environment for senior citizens looking for retirement homes. The plan is a strategic document that contains goals and initiatives designed to improve conditions within the City in order to foster economic growth throughout the area. Be-cause of the long range nature of the plan, the various elements are
not meant to be set in stone but are intended to be integral parts of a living document subject to change as circumstances warrant over the life of the plan, which covers the fiscal years 2015 through 2020.
Local organizations, such as Grow Raton and others, will serve as individual Champions for a variety of initiatives relating to economic development. Each or-ganization will then recruit indi-viduals who will champion specif-ic initiatives or become resources for those Champions. The ultimate success of the endeavors outlined in the plan will depend on the de-gree to which city employees and residents identify with the individ-ual goals and initiatives and are willing to become participants in those efforts. The determining fac-tor in how the plan is implemented
will depend on the extent to which people will step forward because of their interest and willingness to participate in a given segment of the plan. Jenkins said it would

STATE’S OLDEST COMMUNITY COLLEGEProud history: Trinidad State turns 90By Greg BoyceSpecial to The Chronicle-News
Trinidad State Junior College was authorized in a bill signed by Colorado Governor Clarence Mor-ley on April 20 of 1925, establishing what is now the oldest community college in Colorado. In the begin-ning the college shared space and faculty with Trinidad High School. It started with 37 students, com-pared to about 1,800 now.
By 1935 classes were moved to a newly remodeled Tillotson Acade-my building. That building sat just east of the present-day Berg Build-ing, but has since been torn down. The 17-acre Trinidad Campus now includes 15 buildings, plus two more in Alamosa and a handful of off-campus training sites.
Trinidad State continues to of-fer traditional programs of study in academic-transfer areas, such as accounting, business adminis-tration, English, chemistry, math-ematics and psychology. Those students often continue their edu-cation at a four-year school. Trini-dad State also offers a wide range
of career and technical training in programs like gunsmithing, cosmetology, massage therapy, welding, diesel mechanics, auto mechanics and nursing.
Historical highlights:
•The bill that established Trini-dad State Junior College in 1925 was sponsored by State Senator Sam Freudenthal, for whom the campus library is now named
•In the beginning classes were taught at Trinidad High School by high school teachers, but college students were not allowed to min-gle with high school students
•By 1932 a full two years of class-es were offered allowing the first eight students to earn two year de-grees in May of 1933
•In the spring of 1940 construc-tion began on what is now the Berg Administration Building
•In the fall of 1940 construction began on what is now Scott Gym-nasium
•Trinidad State’s gunsmithing progam began in 1947 and is now regarded as the premier gunsmith-ing program in the United States
•Trinidad State was accepted into the Colorado Community Col-lege System in 1968
•In 1994 Trinidad State merged with the San Luis Valley Educa-tional Center in Alamosa, creating the Trinidad State Valley Campus

Celebrating 90 years: How Trinidad got its college
lation. Chamber of Commerce
board members, along with others from several service clubs worked with the pub-lisher of the newspaper to begin lobbying state sena-tors and legislators in the early 1920s. By 1924 Las Animas County voters had also elected a powerful ally in the State Senate. It would be Sen. Samuel Freudenthal who would introduce the Trinidad college bill dur-ing the 1925 session. Two other Las Animas County legislators, Representative Ralph Weinboer and Rep-resentative A.E. Martinez, would sponsor the bill in the House.
As one of 1,080 measures up for consideration by the General Assembly that year it wasn’t surprising that the Trinidad college bill didn’t get much publicity after an initial story in The Chron-icle-News in early Janu-ary. The focus of attention of state legislators during much of the early part of the
session was on a pro-posed state income tax, the governor’s desire to reorganize the state highway system, and nego-tiations with Kansas and Oklahoma over water compacts.
In early March, however, the good news was printed in Trinidad papers that the college bill had easily cleared the state senate and was headed for the house “where it would be taken up immedi-ately,” according to a quote from Rep. Weinboer. He appar-ently spoke too soon since it would take
nearly five more weeks (the last one including several nights extending well past 3 a.m.) as the deadline for final passage of bills drew ever closer.
During that final turmoil of legislative haggling 35 bills were slashed, includ-ing two educational ones: a $60,000 appropriation bill for Adams State Normal School and a similar $60,000 one for Colorado Universi-ty. Trinidad’s bill survived the cut, however. The mea-sure included provisions for a college at Grand Junction as well and both were given appropriations of $2,500.
Two days later Colorado Governor Clarence J. Mor-
ley signed the bill into law. The following week State Rep. Weinboer came to Trinidad to celebrate with members of the Kiwanis Club at their luncheon meeting. He talked about the hard fought battle in the house, thanking all the local supporters who had come north during the past few
months to lobby legislators. He said there were many
people working against the bill’s passage, ‘cliques’ that always form among politi-cians who band together to have leverage getting their projects moved forward. He admitted that he had to “trade” 33 times to get what he wanted. Weinboer told the group, “It’s not the
speakers who get bills thru, they merely block legisla-tion and stir up antago-nism.” He said he believed the people in the house had a new understanding after this experience of what he called ‘Trinidad tenacity.’ “We convinced them all that we were determined to establish a college here and we would not yield.”
