San Diego Community College District

The transformations of City, Mesa and Miramar Colleges, and the six Continuing Education campuses, are well underway, thanks to the $1.555 billion investment made by San Diego taxpayers with Propositions S and N.

A total of 19 projects are now completed. The status report on the last page shows how many more are currently in construction, design, or are going through programming for instructional and faculty/staff space needs.

There are several items to note from 2008. Once again, the District received a clean bill of health in its latest financial audit, showing that Propositions S and N dollars are being spent efficiently and effectively.

In September, LEED Silver certification was set as the minimum standard for all eligible projects, Gold wherever possible, affirming the District’s commitment to effective environmental stewardship. Learn more about the District’s Green Building Policy at www.sdprops-n.com.

More than 2,400 jobs have been created for San Diego workers and contractors since the start of the Propositions S and N construction program, bolstering San Diego’s economy.

Campus Project Manager Reports were added to the COC meetings, providing an in-depth review of each campus on a rotating basis.

Monitoring activities now include regularly scheduled tours of the campuses and active construction projects, so we can ensure the work is proceeding as approved.

In closing, I’d like to acknowledge the passing in 2008 of Harvey Goodfriend, a valued member of the COC from 2006-2008. Harvey was a tremendous advocate for the taxpayers of San Diego. He will be greatly missed.

Sincerely,

Bobby G. GlaserChair

West City Campus, Continuing Education - Sustainability Showstopper

Allied Health Building, Mesa College - Accelerated Schedule Pays Off

The Allied Health Building at Mesa College is a prime example of the District’s successful accelerated construction schedule.

The bid for the three-story, steel-frame 50,000 square foot Allied Health Building came in at nearly $4 million less than the $20 million estimated cost. McCarthy Building, heading a CM multiple prime team, started construction May 16, 2008. A standard schedule would take 18 months. In this example, the scheduled completion is September 8, 2009, a 15½ month schedule.

Designed to achieve a LEED Gold certification, the building will include state-of-the-art technology, classrooms and laboratories designed to house five healthcare disciplines: dental assisting, health information technology, physical therapy, medical assisting and one of only two radiologic technology programs in the region.

The West City Campus for Continuing Education is a new $18 million project, serving as the Campus of Excellence

for Hospitality and Consumer Sciences. Facilities include an expansive culinary arts demonstration kitchen; classrooms for sewing, business information technology, and parenting; and serve as a state-of-the-art model of lean, green and smart construction.

Allied Health programs will support demands for jobs in the fastest-growing healthcare fields in San Diego County — from 85,000 jobs in 2005 to 125,000 jobs by the year 2020!

Energy Efficiency — High-efficiency lighting and heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems are used to reduce the need for energy. High efficiency windows and skylights help pull in natural daylight from outside. Lighting controls automatically dim or shut off the lights when there is adequate daylight from outside. When the outdoor air temperature is comfortable, economizers turn off the air conditioning and circulate air filtered from outdoors.

Water Efficiency — Landscape designs include trees and shrubs that do not require a lot of water. A high-efficiency irrigation system utilizes a controller that adjusts itself to the amount of moisture detected. Restrooms are equipped with water-saving equipment that helps reduce the need for water by 30% from a typically-constructed building. Storm water and runoff are collected in a way to filter the water before being absorbed into the ground. This greatly reduces any runoff that could end up in the bay or river.

Being Green — Whenever possible, materials have high recycled content, such as the fully 100% recycled carpeting, and the countertops made of recycled newsprint. Recycling and salvaging programs during construction diverted approximately 89% of the waste from our landfills. Additionally, bins for paper, plastic and aluminum will be located throughout the campus to encourage recycling by staff and students.

City College Technology Transformation

Miramar College A Community DrawAs a student at Miramar College in the 90’s, Rebecca Bowers-Gentry remembers feeling there were not enough class offerings and that the facilities weren’t conducive to student learning. “You’d walk into the lab and feel it was old and outdated, and that technology had passed us by.”

When Proposition S passed in 2002, she felt it offered the campus the chance to provide classes at every time of the day in every subject, and in so doing, reach as many students as possible.

Bowers-Gentry is still at Miramar — as an Assistant Professor of Biology and Chemistry at the Science and Technology Building, completed in February 2005. “Now, I have modern labs and technology that help me connect with students in a way that would not have been possible without the bond.”

Miramar’s physical transformations are attracting community members who have never taken classes. “We have become a real draw for the community because we have modern state-of-the-art facilities, can offer so many different programs, and can do so throughout the week. The expansion allows us to offer more programs, including athletics, and create a more well-rounded student experience.”

Ever since the doors opened at City College’s Learning Resource Center, “every single class has been booked every single day,” says Mary Benard, Vice President of Instructional Services. “We expect the same with the Career Technology Center, Academic Success Center and P Building.”

The three buildings are the latest to be built or renovated at City College. As part of the campus expansion, Propositions S and N will fund the design and construction of seven new buildings and seven complete renovations. None can open too soon for the college.

“We’ve always had ‘state-of-the-art’ faculty because of the talent and skill they bring to the classroom. Now, they will have the facilities and equipment and technology to match, bringing a whole new level of innovation to our students.”

The new technology will provide students access and opportunity that hasn’t existed previously. Future nursing students will be able to work in labs that simulate medical care scenarios and hospital environments. Future political science students will be able to tap into live feeds that allow for collaboration with experts from across the globe. “We no longer have to wait for the future,” says Benard. “We will be leading the way.”
