Central Maine Community College - Campus

Campus

Central Maine Community College's physical facilities have been enlarged to keep pace with increased demand for programs and services. In 1967, an addition was completed to the original instructional facility and the first residence hall was constructed. In January 1969, another addition, an extension of the North Wing, was completed and later in the year the entire instructional complex was designated by the State Board of Education as the Louis Jalbert Industrial Center, now Jalbert Hall. The portion of Jalbert Hall known as the South Wing was constructed in 1972 and expanded in 1979 and 1986. Jalbert Hall now encloses 175,750 sq ft (16,328 m2). (over 4 acres) under a single roof.

In 1975 two apartment style dormitory buildings and the present dining room/kitchen facilities were ready for use. A building to house the Culinary Arts program was completed in 1989.

In November 1989 Maine voters authorized capital bonding for the 40,000 sq ft (3,700 m2)., Geneva A. Kirk Hall, which houses Nursing, Allied Health and Occupational Health and Safety programs; science laboratories; fitness and recreation facilities, including a gymnasium; and the Corporate and Community Services Division. The building was dedicated for use on May 6, 1993.

Bonding to fund the new Lapoint Center was approved by the voters in1999. The Center, which opened in Fall 2002, houses classrooms as well as additional office facilities, student use areas and library access facilities.

To accommodate the demand for additional on-campus housing, CMCC constructed a new residence hall (Rancourt Hall) which opened in the fall of 2007.
