Bay plans remodeling project

ESCANABA - A planned remodeling project which will combine Bay College's library and TRIO Center areas into a facility called the Academic Service Center (ASC) was discussed by the school's board of trustees during a special meeting Thursday.

President Laura Coleman said students will be able to seek out tutoring, supplemental instruction, library services, online help, and related services at the ASC.

"It pulls all academic support into one place," Coleman said.

While no formal timetable is in place for the ASC's completion, the board hopes to finish the project by the end of 2016, Coleman said.

At the meeting, members of the board spoke with representatives from architecture firm Blomquist & Associates, who showed them a preliminary layout for the remodeled area.

Coleman said the board was confident in the project's current direction. "The board is 100 percent in agreement that we need to do this," Coleman said.
