Science Center
Opened in the fall of 2011, JCC's Science Center was designed to meet LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) silver standards and is a showplace for sustainability in building design and operation. The center includes a number of "green" features that enable energy conservation and promote environmentally-conscious thinking.
Housed within the Science Center are JCC's associate degrees in liberal arts and sciences: math and science, environmental science, and biotechnology. The center features state-of-the-art classrooms, labs, and prep rooms for courses in biology, biotechnology, chemistry, and geology as well as a student study area, loft lounge, greenhouse, and vegetative roof.

Famous quotes containing the words science and/or center:
“If science fiction is the mythology of modern technology, then its myth is tragic.”
—Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929)
“When the landscape buckles and jerks around, when a dust column of debris rises from the collapse of a block of buildings on bodies that could have been your own, when the staves of history fall awry and the barrel of time bursts apart, some turn to prayer, some to poetry: words in the memory, a stained book carried close to the body, the notebook scribbled by hand—a center of gravity.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
