dbo:abstract	Laurel Ridge Community College, formerly Lord Fairfax Community College, is a public community college in the Shenandoah Valley and Piedmont regions of Virginia. It is part of the Virginia Community College System and operates four locations — the Fauquier and Middletown Campuses, the Luray-Page County Center, and a site at in eastern Fauquier County — that serve seven counties and one city in the area, enrolling 9,400 students. Students attending Laurel Ridge can obtain an associate degree or certificate. In July 2021, the Virginia State Board of Community Colleges changed names for local institutions named after people who owned slaves or advocated racist policies such as school segregation. The board allowed the college to change its name to from Lord Fairfax Community College to Laurel Ridge Community College. Instead of venerating Thomas Fairfax, 6th Lord Fairfax of Cameron, plantation owner, the new name honors laurel flower that has been associated with academic achievement. (en)
