St. Louis Community College recently completed the 59,000-sf South County Education and University Center. An extension of the Meramec campus, the facility will serve approximately 2,000 students. The technology-rich facility features three computer labs, 17 “smart” classrooms, two interactive TV rooms connecting to other colleges, and computer carts with radio cards for wireless Internet access. 19 telecommunications enclosures provide wireless Internet connection from nearly everywhere in the building. Ground was broken on the project in December 2001 by project contractor Fru-Con Corp. The center opened for classes on August 25, 2003. The project cost is estimated at $17.3-million, including land acquisition.
