Building 1 at the Quad-Cities Campus
8月. 29, dozens of people gathered in the new courtyard to celebrate the Building 1 addition and renovations.
在 剪彩, BHC president Tim Wynes noted that one thing he kept hearing from students on the first day of class was, “这是给我们的吗??回答是:“是的。.”
“They were just blown away,” he said. “What this building addition says, 这个改造说明了什么, 我们有竞争力吗, as good as any other college.”
The 20,000-square-foot, two-story addition features eight large classrooms. 新 courtyard is the perfect space for outdoor learning, studying, kicking back and events.
Recent Building 1 renovations included updating existing classrooms, faculty offices and the upper lobby. Earlier work resulted in a fresh look for the 金融援助, Bursar’s and Enrollment Services offices in 2018.
新 courtyard and sitting areas complement Building 1’s other offerings well. Building 1 also houses the Hawk’s Hub bookstore, 图书馆, the 辅导 Center and the 职业服务 Center.
Equine Facilities at the East Campus
A 剪彩仪式 是8月. 22 for the new, state-of-the-art equine facilities.
“What an opportunity to continue to grow this program, what a great environment for the horses, what a great learning environment,” BHC 校董会 chair Fritz Larsen said during the event.
新, 20,000-square-foot building increased the amount of horse stalls at East Campus by 36%, making the total horse stall count 94.
To prepare for the new building, a construction team demolished the former, smaller Building 6.
The Ag Pavilion was renovated, with some stalls removed to allow part of the building to return to its previous capacity as a small arena.
The construction work also included adding a new livestock area.
新 and renovated facilities help enhance 农业 and equine programs and community events at the East Campus.
