Panola College is a community college located in Carthage, Texas. The name derives from Panola County, Texas, of which Carthage is the county seat.
[edit] History
Panola College was established in 1947, and began operations in January 1948 at the corner of State Highway 325 and U.S. Highway 79, where it continues to operate today. The first permanent buildings were erected in 1949.
In 1995, the adjacent counties of Harrison, Marion, and Shelby were added by law to Panola's designated service area. Panola operates branch locations in Marshall and Center.
The college also serves residents of nearby Louisiana parishes (as Panola County is on the state border) and Air Force members stationed at Barksdale Air Force Base.
