You Can't Cross a Border if You Can't Find It
Presenter(s): Richard Franz, Pima County Community College; Rosemarie Schulz, Pima County Community College ; Robin Shambach, Burns and Wald-Hopkins Architects
Convener: Joel E. Putterman, AICP, Jacobs, Advance Planning Group

Students have to be able to find the border in order to cross it. At Pima Community College, the five campuses of this 60,000 student institution had poor street visibility, no clear vehicular entry, and no clear main entry. One of eleven stated goals of the college's $157 million capital program was to address this problem. Learn how this goal was implemented amongst all of the competing goals and desires, with tips on how you can implement similar goals.
