ABOUT THE CATALOG COVER

Building on the goals and objectives of the 2007 Facilities Master Plan, the DVC Commons project includes many campus-wide improvements such as maximizing land use, improving pedestrian access, campus way finding, honoring the character of the DVC campus, creating new synergies and learning environments, welcoming the community, and providing universal access on campus. The project also replaces two of the oldest buildings on campus built in 1955 and 1956.

To learn more about the Commons Project, visit www.dvc.edu/commons The Commons Project has been made possible by Contra Costa County voters through Bond Measure A passed in 2006. No program or state funds will be used in the construction of this project.
