Facilities Department

The quality of the learning environment is an essential part of our students' success and retention.  A warm, clean and healthy environment allows our students, faculty and staff the opportunity to focus on the academic well-being of our student population.  The environment we provide and maintain has a direct impact on the overall "feel" of the campuses; the physical representation of the campus' culture, values, goals and direction.  It is our goal to not simply maintain the overall quality of all our campus environments, but to continually strive to increase the quality and level of service we are able to provide to the students, faculty, staff and general college community.

To this end, we seek:

• To provide clean, safe and healthy environmental conditions in support of the institution's operations.
• To enhance the day-to-day operations of the college through timely responses to the service needs of our customers, students, faculty and administrative staff.
• To promote personal development through ongoing learning and enrichment opportunities.
• To engage students in their learning environment through the support of academic coursework.
• To be a community leader in sustainability efforts that reach beyond our daily operations.
• To recognize that achieving these goals happens through the efforts of individuals who efficiently manage the processes, materials, equipment and other required resources.
