College community,

Phase 1 demolition of the 2500 building and the north section of the 2400 building is now complete.  Next, beginning the week of October 25 and continuing through November 22, the contractor for our new Health Sciences and Advanced Manufacturing Campus Center (HSAMCC) will be bringing and unloading structural fill for laying the building’s foundation.  Heavy truck traffic will occur daily during this period, along with increased vibrations onsite due to compaction activities.

The college appreciates your continued patience with the interruptions and inconveniences caused by construction.  Remember, the end result of these temporary disruptions will be a state-of-the-art health sciences and advanced manufacturing center. 

Thank you. 

Bob Williamson
