their knowledge and know-how. In addition, services for students are second
to none. financial aid, scholarships, career assistance and transfer counseling

in 1971. In 1988, GCC dedicated the Library and Student Services Center.

education programs. In 1997, GCC dedicated the Learning Resource Center.
This $3 million project includes the ground-level Barnes & Noble College
Store, an interactive TV classroom, a large academic services lab with
60 computers and two classrooms. An $8.1 million expansion program began
in 2001, including construction of Scott Hall, a $6.5 million Science &
Technology Center housing chemistry and biology facilities and state-of-the-
art computer labs and classrooms. A separate project involved a $1 million
conversion of the concrete Grand Plaza into a gently sloping green area, with
walkways linking most major campus buildings.
Gloucester County College

extremely well together.
