San Juan College’s original campus buildings were constructed in the early 1970s when student enrollment was about 800. Today, 30 years later, morethan 9,000 students take classes each semester, and that’s just the people taking classes for credit. The library and cafeteria are bursting at the seamstrying to accommodate more students, community groups, school children and business people.

Construction began on the Learning Commons (rendering shown here) in February 2005. When complete it will add more than 32,000 square feet tocampus, addressing not only an increase in student population, but also a change in student expectations and emphasis on learning styles. The new con-cept places learning at the center of all activities and views students as full partners in the learning process. The center is expected to be complete inDecember 2005, with move-in March 2006.
