Very exciting news in the world of local education came across this week here in beautiful Steamboat Springs, CO. The Colorado Mountain College (CMC) CEO, Peter Perhac, noted in a business outlook breakfast, organized by the Steamboat Springs Chamber of Commerce this week, that the college has secured enough funds to complete an almost 300 seat auditorium which will connect with the campus’ new 60,000 square foot facility, which is expected to be completed next summer. In the first fund raising cycle, the CMC Foundation had to raise $1.5 mil by October 15, 2011 for a total of $2.7 mil. by April, 2013 in order to get the state of Colorado’s help on this project. Historically, this is the largest fundraising effort in our community coming to show the city’s passion for a higher level education.
On the top of all that, CMC will offer bachelor degrees in two different areas – Business Administration and Sustainability Studies starting as early as this years fall semester. The bachelor degree in Teacher Education is expected to become available around 2014. All of the above is toped off with the Culinary Program that the college currently offers.
