News & Updates

Brenton Center Facilities Updated

Our "extreme makeover" is nearing completion. Our updates started summer 2010 with the renovation of our largest capture classroom and then progressed to our two smaller capture classrooms. Staff offices were redesigned for better use of our space. The Curtiss ground floor renovation project redesigned our hallway with student seating and display cases. Our new windows will be installed by 2013. Our last project is the updating of the Wilbur H. Bender Video Studio with "green room" technology. Classroom technology, furniture, and teaching stations were refreshed in all capture spaces.
