Health and Wellness Center (Building 30)
The Health and Wellness building, as it is known around campus, is the hub of the college’s many health, medical and, fitness related programs: dental assisting, dental hygiene, emergency medical technician, fitness & lifestyle specialist, health information management, medical assistant, nursing, paramedicine and physical therapist assistant. It houses specialized labs for the physical therapy assistant, nursing, and fitness & lifestyle specialist programs, each outfitted with sophisticated equipment for students to practice procedures and develop the skills necessary for the workplace. You’ll also find group study rooms, faculty offices, and classrooms.
But even if you are not in one of the health professions, the building’s atrium has casual seating space to meet with friends.
If you step out in the courtyard, you’ll find a stunning sculpture—be sure to stand in the center. Afterward, find a seat on one of the benches surrounded by elegant rain gardens. These plants have more purpose than just beauty—the gardens capture and treat 90% of the rainfall that falls on the roof of Building 30 and on the grounds surrounding the building. As the rain slowly infiltrate into the ground, natural biological processes breakdown the pollutants and clean the water before it reaches waterways.
