WyoTech’s sale was finalized Monday, with Jim Mathis stepping in as the new owner.
Mathis said he is incredibly thankful to the community for all the support in helping the the technical college stay open.
“If they (hadn’t) come out in support, I don’t think we would be here today,” Mathis said.
Most of the work happened before Mathis was even involved, he said. It wasn’t until he was approached by a group of business owners that he considered purchasing WyoTech.
Laramie County Community College President Joe Schaffer was one of the people that helped make it possible, Mathis said. Schaffer and WyoTech Campus Director Caleb Perriton kept the college around long enough so Mathis could purchase it, he said.
