The Kaskaskia College Board of Trustees met last night for the regular monthly meeting and they approved a resolution to proceed with the bidding process for the new Nashville Education Center.   As part of its capital campaign master plan, Kaskaskia College plans to expand the Nashville Education Center from its current location with 3,500 square feet of leased space to a building to be constructed at Route 127 and Exchange Avenue, next to Alco with 12,000 square feet of instructional and community space.  The new center will include classrooms and Nursing and Science laboratories, along with computer class rooms and a Distance Learning classroom.  The highlight of the spaces will be a block of four classrooms that can be opened up into one large space that can accommodate seating for 108 at tables or 246 in open seating, which will allow for larger gatherings and seminars.  The new building will also have an open computer lab for community as well as student use, and three Business Incubator offices that will house three small business startups, with technology and administrative help for prospective entrepreneurs.  Plans now are to start construction on the project in July with occupancy of the new building projected for May 2015.  A capital campaign began in October 2013 and has already raised over $550,000.
