SCC is excited to announce its new Capital Giving Campaign to support its facilities and equipment projects as the
College nears completion of its Facilities Master Plan Phase I projects and launches its second phase of projects.
Below is a list of Phase I projects, as well as examples of some of the many upcoming projects. Your contribution of
any amount will be instrumental in helping SCC continue to modernize its
facilities.
Upcoming Projects
Nebraska Hall Renovation
(Milford)
The goal of renovating Nebraska Hall
is to restore the iconic historic building for a new campus purpose now that
it has been taken out of service as a residence hall. The goal is to create a gathering place for students to
collaborate together and where all major student support services are located under one roof. The building’s
close proximity to the G. Alan Dunlap Center, where the cafeteria and campus store are located, as well as being
between the Eicher Technical Center and the new residential housing make it the ideal spot on campus to create a
hub for students to gather. Initial conceptual design ideas are being considered.
Student and Academic
Support Renovation (Lincoln)
This project
involves construction of a 25,672 square-foot, two-story addition and renovation of 80,038
square feet of internal spaces, with 5,055 square feet of mechanical mezzanine. It addresses vital fire and life
safety needs through: fire suppression that includes sprinkling the current gymnasium, appropriate firewall
separations; appropriate egress all in adherence to current fire and life safety code. While the College
addresses these needs, it is using the opportunity to modernize, expand and organize the spaces to improve
access for students to these vital academic support needs. Estimated completion date: April 2023.
Agricultural Career Center
(Beatrice)
This new facility will support SCC’s ag and ag-related programs.
There are several other projects in the planning stages. Please contact Rick Blessen, Director of Advancement, if you would like
