Lake City Community College

Florida Gateway College (FGC), formerly Lake City Community College, is a state college in Lake City, Florida, U.S. It is part of the Florida College System. It is one of several institutions in the system designated a "state college", allowing it to offer four-years bachelor's degrees, though the college currently does not offer such degrees. The institution was established in 1947 as the Columbia Forestry School, and became a junior college in 1961. It adopted its current name in 2008. FGC is located adjacent to Lake City Municipal Airport, six miles (10 km) east of Lake City, and offers academic programs in liberal arts and sciences, occupational training and personal enrichment. The school serves 7,000 students each year from its five-county district, which includes Baker, Columbia, Dixie, Gilchrist and Union counties. At the conclusion of World War II, the Lake City Naval Air Station was decommissioned and the Columbia Forestry School (CFS) was established in 1947, utilizing military structures that remained. At the time, Lake City claimed to be the "Forestry Capitol of the World".

  • Maria Ly is quite literally a Rock Star. You’ll often find her hanging off a 5.13a grade rock climbing route, she is the rock star co-founder of Skimble (which is incubated by Rock Health), and you can find her rock formation photography featured in Outside Magazine.

  • March 13, 1988 was the day we moved to America. Although it wasn't my first time in the country, that date was the beginning of my journey through the American school system. Those eleven years filled me with a lifetime of great memories.

  • Mayank is an inventor and zebra-enthusiast. He developed Stripespotter, a biological barcode scanner for zebras, and is a part of the team behind Facebook insights. By way of India to Oman to the US, Mayank can be found behind the wheel of a red Porsche dreaming up his next big idea.
