Goal: $4M to Reinvent Teaching, Learning and Collaborative Environments
Our two campuses are unique. They have evolved over time to meet the needs of a growing university and a vibrant student body while remaining the small, personal spaces that foster life-changing connections between students, professors and staff. Our classrooms and laboratories are at the core of the learning experience — and they need to meet the needs of modern 21st century teaching and learning opportunities.
As academic programs, such as nursing, grow to welcome more students, they create a need for additional facilities, such as training and simulation laboratories. Similarly, advances in computer science, the emergence of cybersecurity, and the expansion of STEM fields require computing and research equipment to match these rapidly changing industries.
Our students come to St. Joe’s to follow their dreams — dreams that often revolve around providing service to their communities. We need to meet those dreams and provide the facilities that sustain them.
In Patchogue, the new Student Center has emerged as a dynamic place to meet the needs of today’s hard-working students. Now, we must match that vision with upgrades to facilities and spaces which put our students first and to ensure that St. Joe’s is a destination of choice for tomorrow’s students and families.
From science laboratories to fields and locker rooms for our Bears and Golden Eagles, the time is now to keep building and keep thriving.
