Jacinto Treviño College

Colegio Jacinto Treviño or Jacinto Treviño College was a college in Mercedes, Texas, United States from 1969 until the mid-1970s.

It was started by Mexican Americans who felt underserved by the current educational community in 1969. It lost many of its staff and students due to political disputes in 1971 that lead to the founding of Juarez-Lincoln University.
