Bevill State Community College recently hosted an event to celebrate the completion of major upgrades on its Hamilton Campus. These improvements, made possible through support from the Alabama Legislature, the Alabama Community College System (ACCS), and the Appalachian Regional Commission (ARC), represent a significant investment in education and the future of the broader community.
The campus enhancements include comprehensive renovations to the Welding, HVAC, and Salon & Spa Management Departments, equipping these programs with state-of-the-art technology and resources to better prepare students for high-demand careers. The Bevill Business Center, a cornerstone for both college and community events, also received critical updates, including a new roof and a modernized auditorium.
In total, over $3 million was invested in the Hamilton Campus improvements, demonstrating Bevill State’s commitment to providing high-quality facilities and programs.
Dr. Joel Hagood, President of Bevill State Community College, expressed appreciation for the support that made these projects possible. “We are incredibly thankful to the Alabama Legislature, ACCS, and the ARC for their investment in Bevill State and our students. The updates to the Welding, HVAC, and Salon & Spa Management Departments, as well as the Bevill Business Center, underscore our commitment to providing comprehensive educational opportunities in modern facilities that prepare our students for success in today’s competitive workforce. These projects are an investment not just in our campus, but in the future of the region.”
The event welcomed college leadership, community members, business and industry representatives, and local officials to tour the upgraded facilities and learn about the transformative impact these improvements will have on students and the surrounding area.
