B U S I N E S S • R E A L E S T A T E • H O M E I M P R O V E M E N T business Vaughn’s Campus Transformation (continued on page 28) Revealed this Fall Vaughn College is committed to providing our nearly 2,000 students with an unparalleled educational experience in the fields of engineering, technology, management and aviation. Significant investments made recently in the learning environment, degree programs and academic resources have enhanced the value of a Vaughn degree. After nearly three years of campus renovations, Vaughn College has been transformed both inside and out. Improvements have been made throughout the main building and can be seen in the classrooms, laboratories, library, and administrative areas, as well as from 23rd Avenue and the Grand Central Parkway with an impressive new façade. “We are excited that the project has come to a close and are enjoying being in our newly, renovated space,” said President Dr. Sharon B. DeVivo. “It is particularly gratifying to be able to offer our students and faculty the benefits of the nearly $40 million investment we’ve made to the campus including enhanced services for our students.” STATE-OF-THE-ART LIBRARY AND TEACHING/LEARNING CENTER DESIGNED TO ENHANCE STUDENT RETENTION One of the new favorite places for students to study and relax is the two-story library and teaching and learning center (TLC). Students use the new bright and comfortable setting for individual and collaborative studies, while having direct access to information technology services as well as the TLC. The TLC houses the student advisement center, academic support services, the writing center, the language lab and other state and federally funded support programs. Librarian Jo Ann Jayne notes, “Vaughn’s beautiful new library is truly a wonderful and functional space where students love to come to access resources, study or take a break. By offering classes in the library and having support services in one location we are able to provide an integrated experience for students to be successful in their coursework.” Photos courtesy of Vaughn College
