STUDENT SERVICES
January 8, 2001 Update
STUDENTS FIRST! STATIONS INSTALLED IN STUDENT SERVICES BUILDING.
The first stop for future LCC students in the Student Services building is the Students First! stations. The seven stations, constructed off site and comprised of warm oak and a Formica that will coordinate with the floor tile, have now been installed on the south side of the main lobby. Resembling a staggered line of service counters you use at banks, the stations are fully equipped with data/electrical hook ups. The two end counters are ADA accessible. It is anticipated that the terracotta brick, which will be the main lobby's floor covering, will be installed in several weeks. On the outside of the building, the main stairwell and patio has been poured. Metal hand railing installed at the ADA ramp will be painted dark green, and Frank Drengacz is brainstorming some great ideas to soften the look of the ramp area with plants. The ramp walls are actually narrow deep planters. While Frank would like to establish a tall plant species that would soften the angular lines of the area, it is impossible to do so because the plants would grow to be much wider that the planter. Therefore, it is possible that aromatic plantings such as heather; Ceanothus, or California Lilac; or even old-fashioned, thorn-less roses will adorn the planters. Weather permitting, paving at the south end of Dale Parnell Loop could be done by the end of this month.
