About Richard Bland College
Richard Bland College (RBC) is a public junior college associated with the College of William & Mary and located in Prince George, Virginia. It was established in 1960 by the Virginia General Assembly as a branch of the College of William & Mary under the umbrella of "the Colleges of William and Mary". The "Colleges" system lasted two years. Although the other three institutions such as Christopher Newport founded as colleges of William & Mary became independent colleges and later universities, Richard Bland has continued as a junior college of the College of William & Mary. Though under its own administration, Richard Bland College is governed by William & Mary's Board of Visitors. It was named after Virginia statesman Richard Bland who lived in Prince George County where the East campus is located. The West campus is located in Dinwiddie County.
