In January, Tacoma Community College released The Open Door: A History of Tacoma Community College, a narrative history e-book that shows how students, faculty, staff, and community leaders collaborated to create the college, which opened its doors on Sept. 13, 1965 (see “Tacoma Community College: E-book release party begins 50th Anniversary celebration,” Tacoma Daily Index, Jan. 14, 2015). The e-book and its author, Dale Coleman, were featured in the Tacoma Daily Index last year (see “History Maker: As TCC turns 50, one researcher will tell its story,” Tacoma Daily Index, Sept. 18, 2014″). The e-book is available online here.
