enrich every student's experience.

Growth of the Gloucester County College campus has kept pace with

program and service enhancements. In autumn 1970, students began attending

classes in the Instructional Center, the first building completed on campus.

The College Center, Physical Education Center and Fine Arts Center opened

in 1971. In 1988, GCC dedicated the Library and Student Services Center.

In 1993, the College constructed the Early Childhood Education Center

and the Nursing, Allied Health and Technology Center. Also included in the

expansion program was an addition to the Physical Education Center housing

the Gloucester County Police Academy, Fitness Center and enhanced physical

education programs. In 1997, GCC dedicated the Learning Resource Center.

This $3 million project includes the ground-level Barnes & Noble College

Store, an interactive TV classroom, a large academic services lab with

60 computers and two classrooms. An $8.1 million expansion program began

in 2001, including construction of Scott Hall, a $6.5 million Science &

Technology Center housing chemistry and biology facilities and state-of-the-

art computer labs and classrooms. A separate project involved a $1 million

conversion of the concrete Grand Plaza into a gently sloping green area, with

walkways linking most major campus buildings.

the season 43-2. A season that at one point had the Roadrunners winning

37 consecutive games for Dickson. The team was ranked number #1 in the

country for several weeks and was group that was very talented and worked

extremely well together.

Gloucester County once again excelled on the National level. The

Roadrunners finished the season Ranked Number One in the nation. It was

Moving On

The Roadrunner tradition of moving student athletes onto four-year colleges:

Mike Ney — Old Dominion Alexi Colon — Tusculum

Jim Best — George Washington JJ Williams — UNC Pembrook

Dave Prager — Rowan University Edwin Frias — NJCU

Mark Malec — Savannah College Matt Smith — Neumann

It marked the third player in GCC History to be given that award.

Right Hand Pitchers Nick Alloway(Gateway) and Matt Smith (Williamstown)

were named second team All-Americans.

Coach Dickson now has nine players in

5 years that have been named All-

Americans. Nick Alloway was select-

ed in the 35th round (Twins) of the

first year MLB Draft.
