Minnesota Community Colleges (2-Yr Colleges)Minnesota Junior Colleges, Technical Schools, and InstitutesThe State of Minnesota administers its own system of higher education which operate at least two tiers of public colleges. One being the community colleges in Minnesota, sometimes called Minnesota junior colleges, or Minnesota technical institutes, and so-called "four-year" Minnesota colleges which award bachelor's and master's degrees. The "two-year" community educational institutions provide post-secondary education and lower-level tertiary education, granting certificates, diplomas, and associate's degrees in Minnesota. The name, "community colleges" derives from the fact that "two-year" colleges primarily accept, and attract, students from the Minnesota local community The Cloquet School District opened the first two-year college in Minnesota in 1914. By 1925, school districts across the state had opened junior colleges that operated under the leadership of local school boards and superintendents, and shared facilities with local schools. In 1950, the Minnesota Commission on Higher Education issued a report that identified six major missions for the state's junior colleges, and in 1957, the state began providing funding to supplement local district revenues.
