The Vermont State Colleges (VSC) is the U.S. state of Vermont's system of public colleges. It functions as a governance organization, and was created by act of the Vermont General Assembly in 1961. There are presently five colleges in the VSC consortium, they are: Castleton State College, Community College of Vermont, Johnson State College, Lyndon State College, and the Vermont Technical College. Together, more than 13,000 students are enrolled in the colleges of the VSC. While VSC, the state colleges' governing organization, was created in the mid-twentieth century, most of the component colleges are older. The state legislature first chartered Castleton State College as a grammar school in 1787. Johnson State College was founded in 1828. The Vermont Technical College was founded in 1866. Lyndon State College was founded in 1911. Only Community College of Vermont, founded in 1970, was founded after the creation of the VSC. The VSC is headquartered at the Chancellors Office in Waterbury, Vermont – a directorate performing day to day financial and policy operations. The Chancellors Office is headed by the chancellor, and three vice presidents.
