The Classroom Enhancement Project began in 1993-1994 to upgrade existing classrooms to a higher standard and to provide capabilities for multi-media instruction. Initially, selection criteria focused on improving rooms that served the greatest number of students based on the seating capacity of the room and rooms utilized by multiple colleges. Other considerations included rooms with the greatest physical need and the impact of future plans for renovations of an entire facility. Over time, the larger classrooms have been addressed and recent projects have focused on smaller classrooms.
The project began with a budget of $200,000, with $100,000 from the Office of the
Provost and $100,000 from the Office of Budget and Finance. Funding increased steadily
until 2002-2003 when the current budget of $1,000,000 was established, $400,000 from
the Office of the Provost and $600,000 from the Office of Budget and Finance.
