College History Bee County Junior College District was created by election on November 2, 1965. The election resulted from several years of work to establish a community college for Bee County. Support was shown by residents in an overwhelming five-to-one majority for the creation of the district. The desire for a community college was again demonstrated on December 7, 1965, when district citizens approved a tax to support BCC, and bond issues to build the college. The Board of Trustees changed the college name from Bee County College to Coastal Bend College on September 1, 1998. The name change was made because the service area was extended by an act of the Texas Legislature in 1995. The Coastal Bend College service area includes Karnes, McMullen, Live Oak, Bee, Duval, Jim Wells and Brooks Counties, and parts of Atascosa and Kleberg Counties. The original board of trustees was Robert J. Beasley, George F. Elam, Jr., Frank Jostes, Fred C. Latcham, Jr., Peter S. Marecek, Paul A. Schulz and George Spikes. The board, elected in November, selected Grady C. Hogue as the first BCC President. Its second chief executive, Dr. Norman E. Wallace, became president in 1984. Dr. John M. Brockman, became the college’s third president on September 1, 1999. CBC’s current president, Dr. Thomas B. Baynum, came to the college in 2007. Bee County College opened in September, 1967, with 790 students, 24 full-time instructors and 11 part-time teachers. Enrollment in academic, workforce education and continuing education classes during the spring of 2007 was 2,946.
Beeville is in the center of Bee County. The terrain ranges from level to gently rolling slopes. The temperature is warm. It is influenced by the nearby Gulf of Mexico. There are prevailing southerly winds of 8 to 10 miles per hour. Annual rainfall is about 30 inches, and is evenly distributed throughout the year. Coastal Bend College is located at 3800 Charco Road. The main campus is in Beeville.
Beeville and Bee County Bee County was organized in 1858, and Beeville, the county seat, was developed in 1860. The City of Beeville was incorporated in 1908. Today, major segments of the economy are farming, ranching, oil, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. The county has many active oil and gas wells.

CBC Lott-Canada Facility Coastal Bend College’s Continuing Education program is headquartered at the Lott-Canada Facility in Beeville. This historical building, located on the west side of town, has played a vital role in educating Beeville’s youth. The building is nationally recognized as one of the few remaining Rosenwald Schools in Texas. It was once used by local AfricanAmerican students. Once Beeville schools were fully integrated, the school was used for offices and special programs. Lott-Canada alumni assisted in the restoration of this building. Continuing Ed classes are held on all CBC campuses throughout the year.
