MARINETTE, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – A newly remodeled and expanded campus is showing off its transformation to the public.
The Northeast Wisconsin Technical College campus in Marinette held a ribbon-cutting ceremony Tuesday.
Since May 2016, the campus was a construction zone, adding around 14,500 square feet and remodeling the existing 67,000 square feet.
Christine Polzin, Marinette campus manager, tells FOX 11 the expansion added state-of-the-art classrooms, study spaces, and a new entrance.
“What we really wanted to do with this new space is create an inviting learning environment and also create spaces for our students to be able to collaborate with other students. We wanted to make sure students could find all of their resources in a small space so that it’s easy to navigate the educational process.”
The project is part of a 2015 referendum that approved $66.5 million to improve three NWTC campuses.
