The Crawford C. McCullough Rotary Lecture Theatre
On hand today were Rob Zuback, Director: Advancement, Communications, External Relation, and Robin Gould (Director, Facilities Services) to outline an exciting new $2.4 million project to upgrade the Dr. Crawford C. McCullough Rotary Lecture Theatre. It was noted that ENT Surgeon Dr. McCullough was a respected former President of Rotary International back when Rotary was just North American.
The original 189-seat hall constructed in 1970 is a central hub of the campus and needs upgrading on many fronts, especially:
1. accessibility for lecturers, students and guests with disabilities
2. asbestos abatement
3. technology up to current standards, and
4. Indigenous- and environment-themed design, art and other renewals.
Rob and Robin detailed the key areas and an overview of just how major is Confederation College’s economic impact in our community.
