CAMPUS CENTER
The Campus Center was opened on June 15, 1956. The building was renamed the John Collins Campus Center on
September 10, 2003 in honor of Dr. John J. Collins, former Bakersfield College President from 1972 to 1983. The Campus
Center offers a wide range of services and programs and is a place of relaxation and recreation for students. It is your “home
away from home,” the community center of the college. The Campus Center is located in the middle of campus, and many
Campus Center programs and events are funded by campus center activity fees.
The Campus Center courtyard is a great outdoor gathering spot on campus. It features picnic tables, Wi-Fi access, and shade
umbrellas. During the year, many campus activities are held in this area for Welcome Week, Spring Fling, Homecoming Week,
touring bands, community vendors, and more.

printed, typed, duplicated, handwritten or printed on paper, cloth, or other material and is handed out, placed in areas for easy
pick-up, placed on tables or displayed by posting on bulletin boards or walls. Symbolic insignia refers to any button, badge,
armband, article of clothing, or other insignia or symbolic expression that may be worn or displayed by a person to symbolize a
student’s commitment to a belief in any legal cause, idea, or philosophy. The California Education Code prohibits advertising

and to exhibit symbolic insignia subject to specific limitations. For more information and to get approval, please stop by the
