"Weatherford College means the world to me. My personal experience as a student was transformational," said Dr. Tod Allen Farmer, the first president in school history to also be a former student. "WC set me on a path of life-long learning that led me to where I am today. "Through the years, I have witnessed so many lives that have been forever changed for the better as a result of their WC education. Weatherford College is a crown jewel to our society. Simply put, Weatherford College changes lives." Farmer went back in his mind to his days as a student, taking his first campus orientation tour. "I was just an average Parker County boy who knew little more than that I wanted to get an education and make a better life for myself and my descendants," he said. "The lady leading the campus tour told those of us on the tour to deposit our waste in the 'waste receptacles.' I had never heard anyone refer to a trash can as a 'waste receptacle.' It was at that very moment that I knew that I was on my pathway to a new life.
