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 />
