In what year did Dalton Junior College become Dalton State College?

• A. 1987
• B. 1963
• C. 1988
• D. 1967

Answer: (C)

When a junior college becomes a state college, it signals that the institution has expanded beyond two-year programs to include four-year degrees and is now part of the state college system. For Dalton, that transition happened in 1988, when the school adopted the name Dalton State College to reflect its broader mission and new bachelor’s degree offerings within the state system.
