Requesting $2 Millions • Built-in computers in desks that can be raised or lowered so classrooms can be used both for “lecture” and for computer labs to accommodate accounting classes which have lab components as well as for additional CAS labs. • Real ADA compliance workstations in labs/classrooms. • Our students need exposure to the latest presentation and communications technology, as they will use this in their future careers. • New wiring, paint, floor and window coverings • Remove/clean up the old photography area and remodel the bathrooms • Convert the many storage rooms/closets to study spaces and small group collaboration spaces to enhance student learning.
