Celebrating New Named Spaces Across MCC

Monroe Community College and the Monroe Community College Foundation have had much to celebrate this year. Thanks to the extraordinary generosity of our donors and industry partners, this has been a record-breaking year for philanthropic gifts recognizing and naming spaces across our campuses. These milestones would not have been possible without the collaboration and support of our many campus partners. Thank you to everyone who has helped bring these naming opportunities to life.

If you've attended recent Board of Trustees meetings, you've likely heard about many of these exciting announcements. Because there have been so many this year, we wanted to highlight them all in one place. To help ensure consistency when referring to named spaces across campus, we've also included the Naming Facilities Guide for your reference.
