Episode 1: How Pasadena High School Became PCC
In the 1920s, Pasadena faced a growing student population and limited access to higher education. This episode traces how Pasadena High School evolved into Pasadena City College through a bold education experiment known as the 6-4-4 plan—and how that model helped shape the early community college system in California.
