Monday, February 6, 2017 at 11:05 AM

The construction will occur between the Clock Tower Building and the West Classroom Complex. Please note that parking will be limited in portions of Parking Lot F, with adequate parking in Lot C and in the remaining portion of Lot F.

From San Juan College:

Construction will begin on Sunday, February 5, for the renovation and addition to the School of Math, Science and Engineering, located the West Classroom Complex. The construction will occur between the Clock Tower Building and the West Classroom Complex. Please note that parking will be limited in portions of Parking Lot F, with adequate parking in Lot C and in the remaining portion of Lot F. (Please see attached map.)

There will be construction equipment throughout the duration of the project. For your safety, we ask that you please be mindful of your surroundings when you are passing through this area.

Thanks to a General Obligation Bond passed in 2015, the new construction will include the addition of a computer lab as well as an Anatomy and Physiology lab with a prep area for instructors and students and new bathrooms. New study space for the students will also be included. The herbarium and the dark room will be relocated to make room for renovations to many existing classrooms and labs. Construction is set to be completed by May of 2018.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation throughout this project, which will help provide students with the space and technology needed to receive a quality educational experience.
