Named after Captain Maximiliano Luna, a distinguished figure who served as Speaker of the House of Representatives for the Territory of New Mexico and played a significant role in the Rough Riders, a renowned mounted cavalry unit during the Spanish American War, Luna Community College has a rich history. Established in 1969 as Luna Area Vocational Technical School, the college has since expanded its offerings and evolved into a comprehensive institution.
