History
Southwest was formed on July 1, 2000, by a merger between Shelby State Community College and the State Technical Institute at Memphis ("STIM").[1] Nathan Essex, the school's founding president, announced in 2014 that he would retire the next summer.[2]

Southwest previously had a campus located in Frayser but sold it to Libertas School of Memphis in 2024 due to declining enrollment.[5]
