HUTCHINSON, Kan. — The Hutchinson Community College Board of Trustees met for the final time for the school year on Thursday. The Board received a tour and an update on the renovation of the student dining facility in the Parker Student Union.
The $5.2 million facelift includes a new dining and kitchen area, remodeling the basement recreation and meeting areas, and making overall needed improvements. The project is currently on target for an early August completion.
The Board also received an update on its strategic planning initiatives from Dr. Tricia Paramore and a report from Ken Baker, General Manager of Radio Kansas, on the success of their recent fundraiser, especially considering the current economic environment. In addition, the Board received a curriculum report on updates for the 2020-21 academic year and approved several items of routine business.
