<strong>Blueprint</strong> <strong>2020</strong> from page 1<br />

Landing Campus roadways,<br />

including a new entrance and<br />

loop road.<br />

In addition, the <strong>College</strong><br />

secured state and county funding<br />

for the design of the STEM<br />

building. This new facility, to be<br />

located next to D building, is<br />

the focal point of <strong>Blueprint</strong><br />

<strong>2020</strong>.<br />

The STEM building will be<br />

mostly lab space. The existing<br />

labs in A building will then be renovated<br />

to modern classroom space. The timeline<br />

for this project calls for completion<br />

in 2012.<br />

Other major projects included in<br />

the plan are renovations to the Mays<br />

Landing Campus library to create an<br />

Information Commons that will integrate<br />

computers into the library space, similar<br />

to what the <strong>Atlantic</strong> City and <strong>Cape</strong> May<br />

County campuses have. That work takes<br />

place this summer.<br />

In addition, the gymnasium will be<br />

renovated this summer to add new<br />

locker rooms and a fitness center.<br />

The projects were long overdue. “This<br />

campus was only built for 3,500 students.<br />

We now enroll 7,000,” Perniciaro said.<br />

“With <strong>Blueprint</strong> <strong>2020</strong>, we’re really trying<br />

to recognize the needs of the students,<br />

many of whom spend a lot of time here.”<br />

Already, the <strong>College</strong> upgraded and<br />

added exterior lighting and is renovating<br />

restrooms across campus. These were the<br />

top two issues students noted needed<br />

attention during a facilities study in 2007.<br />
