College of Marin, Community college in Kentfield, United States.
College of Marin is a public institution with two locations serving Marin County, one in Kentfield and another in Novato. The college provides a range of programs designed to prepare students for transfer to universities or completion of career training.
The institution was founded in 1926 and operated under a different name in its early years. A merger in the 1980s combined resources and expanded the range of programs available to students across the county.
The theater program draws students who later gain admission to well-known performance schools across the country. Stage productions happen regularly throughout the year and showcase work from various drama classes.
The main campus offers administrative offices and classrooms accessible during standard business hours on weekdays. A second location nearby provides additional instructional space and resources for students across the region.
The college funds itself through local property tax revenue rather than state support, an uncommon funding structure for California community colleges. This self-supporting approach gives the institution more flexibility in shaping its program offerings and priorities.
