GCCC BOT Approve Naming Rights of Fine Arts Auditorium
[Garden City, KS] October 18, 2023 -- The Garden City Community College Board of Trustees approved the naming rights of the Fine Arts Auditorium during the regularly scheduled meeting on Tuesday, October 17, 2023.
Fundraising efforts have been underway to renovate and update auditorium inside the Pauline Joyce Fine Arts Building over the past few years. KCB Bank came forward with a $100,000 lead gift to support this project. GCCC has received 50% of the gift, and following college policy for naming rights, GCCC Administration recommended renaming the auditorium as the "KCB Bank Auditorium" inside the Pauline Joyce Fine Arts Building. The Board approved this item, and signage will soon be placed outside both interior doors in the Fine Arts Lobby to signify the new auditorium name.
The Board heard an update on the college's strategic plan, with data specific to the key performance indicators, which track various factors on data points within the strategic plan. The Board also heard from faculty on academic program reviews for the Mathematics department and Art department, highlighting academic, enrollment, and institutional data from the past five years.
One executive session was held, and no action was taken.
The next meeting of the Board of Trustees is scheduled for Tuesday, November 14, 2023, at 6 p.m. in the Ronald J. Scott Endowment Room inside the GCCC Beth Tedrow Student Center.
