Ground was broken recently for a new addition to 29-year-old McCool Hall, which houses the College of Business and Industry. The ceremony officially launched a major expansion and renovation involving additional classrooms, conference rooms, faculty offices, and "team rooms" for student projects, among others. Private contributions are funding the enhancements. Wielding shovels are (l-r) state College Board President Roy Klumb, alumnus Leo Seal, President Charles Lee, COBI Dean Sara Freedman, COBI faculty member Rodney Pearson, and Tasha Key, president of the COBI Council of Student Organizations.
