    The renovation plan provides space for a receptionist and two faculty offices. Both full-time and part-time faculty from the College will teach the credit courses. The Division Deans who have responsibility for programs College-wide will supervise curriculum development and the Associate Dean for Academic Affairs at the West Campus will provide day-to-day operations leadership for the faculty.

    Non-credit courses will be taught by local experts, hired by the College. In addition, SRHA has committed to provide instructors for some of the non-credit courses.

    The development and implementation of the academic symposium will be faculty-driven, with the support of the Division Dean.

    The College will need to expand maintenance and custodial hours for the additional facility. Public safety/security is already provided to the site, due to College use of the parking area.
