Guam Community College (GCC) is a community college in Mangilao, Guam. It was officially created by Public Law 14–77 in 1977 under Maryly Van Leer Peck's leadership.[2] This law created the college by consolidating several pre-existing programs from a variety of institutions, including the Adult Evening School of the Guam Department of Education, the Community Career College of the University of Guam, the Apprenticeship Training Program of the University of Guam, and other programs originally created by Guam's Department of Labor and the Guam Police Department.[3]
The U.S. Census Bureau puts the community college into the University of Guam census-designated place.[4]
