Santa Fe College, perhaps, is not where you think it is -- just a few minutes northwest of the University of Florida in Gainesville, Florida. Although often overshadowed by its much-larger neighbor, Santa Fe College offers a smaller, more individualized college experience. This state college was established in 1966 as Santa Fe Community College. It dropped the "Community" part of its name when it began offering bachelor's degree programs in 2008. Some of Santa Fe College's graduates include Senator Marco Rubio, music producer Craig Fugate, and Olympic runner Robin Campbell.
