During the 1970s and ‘80s, Saddleback College carried on a major construction program, beginning with the James B. Utt Library, completed in 1973. The Math/Science building (1974), the Physical Education/Athletics and Fine Arts complexes (1977), the Business/General Studies facility (1986), and the
Technology/Applied Science building (1989) soon followed. During that same 20-year period, the college experienced a dramatic growth in enrollment – burgeoning from 3,025 to nearly 24,000 students. The college recently opened a 3-story combined Health Sciences-District offices building on its campus.
In addition to being a center of learning, Saddleback College has developed into one of south Orange County’s premier cultural and recreational sites. The campus hosts film festivals, music and dance concerts, lectures by renowned newsmakers and scholars, and is home to the award-winning Saddleback Civic Light Opera. Its men’s and women’s intercollegiate athletic teams have achieved a solid reputation for success and hold more than 100 conference, state and national titles. On-campus sports facilities include a golf driving range and putting greens, aquatics complex, football stadium, baseball and softball field, gym, tennis courts and all-weather track.
