RATHBURN HALL<br />

athburn Hall was formally dedicated on Friday, Sept. 14, to a<br />

R warm welcome from the campus community and the larger <strong>Grove</strong><br />

<strong>City</strong> family. The building provides office and meeting space for groups<br />

on campus. The building's main event areas are also available for<br />

meetings and receptions by the community.<br />

Members of the Board of Trustees, administrators, staff and faculty,<br />

as well as many students were on hand as the <strong>College</strong> marked the<br />

completion of its first major campaign initiative.<br />

Each day, members of the <strong>Grove</strong> <strong>City</strong> <strong>College</strong> community express<br />

their Christian faith in some way. Some practice it overtly through clubs,<br />

mission trips and ministry. Others engage faith on a more<br />

private level, quietly through reflection, prayer and Bible study.<br />

Rathburn Hall provides space for that engagement. Within our mission,<br />

we commit to accept all creeds. From whatever faith tradition students,<br />

faculty and community members come, the addition of a Christian<br />

Activities Building reflects the centrality of spiritual life to the student<br />

campus experience.<br />

This building project has been completely funded by capital<br />

campaign gifts and has been constantly in use since its opening.<br />

SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,<br />

ENGINEERING AND<br />

MATHEMATICS BUILDING<br />

As the <strong>College</strong> continues to look forward to the completion of<br />

its second major building initiative, the Science, Technology,<br />

Engineering and Mathematics Building (“STEM” Hall) is continuing<br />

ahead of schedule. Brick exterior is going up, and the building is<br />

quickly becoming one of the most beautiful on campus. With<br />

state-of-the-art lab and classroom space, this building will open in<br />

fall 2013.<br />

The new building will enable the <strong>College</strong> to keep pace with<br />

increasingly sophisticated technology and interdisciplinary research;<br />

offer expanded lab and study spaces that foster opportunities for<br />

collaborative interactions, similar to what students will find in the<br />

workplace; attract world-class faculty with a passion for teaching;<br />

and recruit talented students to achieve a sciences enrollment goal<br />

of 40 percent of the <strong>College</strong> population.<br />

As of Sept. 30, 2012, we have reached 37.43 percent of our<br />

$35,000,000 goal for this project.
