Grossmont College - Facilities

Facilities

The facilities of Grossmont College are situated across 135 acres. At its inception, the campus was planned to accommodate an enrollment of 2,500 daytime students. The first incarnation of the completed campus was expected to hold 4,800 students. On October 18, 1965, a bond for $3.5 million was approved by area voters. This made it possible to complete the college's initial master plan. By September 25, 1967, the new facilities were completed. Since that time, student enrollment increased dramatically and created the need for new and remodeled campus facilities.

In recent years, the college has undergone major improvements of its facilities including:

  • 2003 Library (new)
  • 2004 Technology Center (new and remodeled old library)
  • 2006 Science Building (new)
  • 2007 Digital Arts Building (new)
  • 2007 Sculpture Complex (new)
  • 2008 Exercise Science Building (remodel)
  • 2009 Parking Structure (lot 5)
  • 2010 Health/Physical Sciences Building (replaces old biology building)
  • 2012 Cafeteria and Admissions & Records Building (remodel)

Famous quotes containing the word facilities:

    “I have always found that when men have exhausted their own resources, they fall back on “the intentions of the Creator.” But their platitudes have ceased to have any influence with those women who believe they have the same facilities for communication with the Divine mind as men have.”
    —Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)

    “Marriage is good enough for the lower classes: they have facilities for desertion that are denied to us.”
