St. Clair College, in partnership with Residential Development Corp., announced today that it is breaking ground for a new student residence to be located on campus at the corner of Bear Line Road and Grand Avenue.
This is an exciting project for St. Clair College as it is another step in the strategic directions of the College to expand services for students.
“Our vision for the Chatham campus is to see significant growth in the next three to five years,” says President Dr. John Strasser. “One of the pieces for this growth is the construction of a student residence which will allow us to attract students from outside of the Chatham-Kent market.”
The first residence pod will consist of 12 units and will accommodate 48 students. It will offer the latest amenities including living room/dining area, kitchen, two bathrooms and in-suite laundry facilities.
The project will be built and managed by Residential Development Corp. (RDC), London, Ontario.
Dr. Strasser is pleased with the partnership with RDC. “This company has considerable experience with these types of projects. Their support has been instrumental in helping us move forward with a new student residence.”
The residence is slated to be open for the Fall 2008.
