Projects Completed Recently

Bernie Bleha Performing Arts Center

The new Bernie Bleha Performing Arts Center replaced the original PA building. Completed in spring 2003.  

The Technology Center

The Technology Center, funded as a growth project, was completed in spring, 2005. 

The Center provides a state-of-the-art training facility for aviation and information technology programs.  

The Technology Center was the first stage of a master plan initiative to locate two new major buildings on the former athletic field close to the center of the campus. The site is located adjacent to parking and accommodates a plan to include storm detention, landscaping, pathways and plaza provisions.  The Center is constructed using campus building standards, sustainable design and energy standards, and most importantly, a focused approach toward meeting the critical programmatic needs of the college.  

Finally the Technology Center is directly adjacent to the science building currently under construction.
