Las Positas College Las Positas College is located on 147 acres in Livermore, in the midst of one of California's fastest-growing regions for business and scientific industry. Las Positas began as an extension center of Chabot College in 1963, offering 24 classes and enrolling 810 students at Livermore High School and two other sites. The district purchased the Livermore site that same year, intending to develop a comprehensive community college. Lacking funds to develop a second comprehensive community college, the Board of Trustees voted to develop a small education center at the Livermore site. Las Positas College currently enrolls approximately 6,500 day and evening students.
Academic rigor is maintained in a friendly, personal atmosphere.
Las Positas faculty and staff are distinguished by their energy, creativity, and commitment to making a difference in the lives of the students they serve.
