MALIBU CAMPUS
March, 2021
January, 2021
Project Description
In the 1970s and early 1980s, Santa Monica College offered about 70 general education classes and several non-credit classes in Malibu throughout a semester. Today, the program is limited to a few classes offered in school district buildings.
The facility will be a classroom facility to provide general education classes, science, art and Emeritus College classes. There is also an interpretive center to highlight natural environment and history of Malibu and a Sheriff’s sub-station. The District has worked cooperatively with the City of Malibu and the County of Los Angeles in planning a site at the Malibu Civic Center.

EARLY CHILDHOOD LAB SCHOOL
Project Description
SMC currently has no dedicated childcare facility and offers lab instruction through various local childcare providers. The District lacks a teaching laboratory facility in Early Childhood Education available at many other community colleges. This project provides for a childcare center for the community plus college instructional facilities. The City of Santa Monica is a partner in this project, providing the site at the Civic Center and a portion of the building funds.

The 112,000 square foot building is three stories, with work areas for approximately 300 people, along with an assessment center, two classrooms, a 300--seat auditorium for orientation and other uses, and underground parking for 500 cars.

information technology relocation
Project Description
The Information Technology department located in Drescher Hall supports the use of information systems on campus. The current server room can no longer support the power and air conditioning needs of the increasingly more powerful servers that are in use today. The plan is to move the department to a new building adjacent to the College's Media Center, which is located on the south end of the Library. Much of the campus technology infrastructure is already located in the Media Center, and the departments work cooperatively on many projects. The project will consist of a new 14,000 SF building and 11,000 SF remodeling of the existing Media Center. The space vacated in Drescher Hall will be converted to academic use as part of a future project.
