Next fall, more Genesee County Community students than ever will be able to live on campus thanks to the construction of two more housing units at College Village.
Today, officials held an official groundbreaking for the new buildings.
"It's great for our students," said College President Jim Sunser. "It's great for the community. College Village is an integral part of what we try to do, to have students experience the full college environment, and adding 64 more students to the full campus experience is another step in that direction."
The $2.81 million project is funded through a private loan to the Genesee Community College Foundation Housing Services, Inc., and repaid through fees paid by students.
