Connie Gotsch was instrumental in founding San Juan College radio station, KSJE.  She was the station's first Program Director, and served as the original host of "Roving with the Arts" and "Write On Four Corners."

The San Juan College Little Theater will undergo months of renovations this summer and be renamed the Connie Gotsch Theater.

The college has received more than $800,000 from the Connie Gotsch Arts Foundation to pay for the remodel.  The designs were unveiled at a recent meeting of the San Juan College Board of Trustees.  They show a remodelled lobby with an art deco flair.

College officials believe the renovation work should be completed sometime in late summer of 2020.
