## Abstract

Alterations and Renovations - Abstract
Western Nevada College is a comprehensive community college serving western Nevada as part of the
Nevada System of Higher Education. Campuses are located in Carson City, Fallon, and Gardnerville. WNC
offers a wide range of educational opportunities with a focus on accessible pathways into healthcare careers,
transfer degrees, and undergraduate research for students. The biology/chemistry lab space located on the
WNC Fallon Campus in Virgil Getto Hall, has not had significant improvements since the 1990’s. An updated
and redesigned WNC Fallon Biology and Chemistry science lab will improve the level of the ongoing
undergraduate INBRE research. The remodel would also assist WNC students who are taking their
prerequisite chemistry and biology courses to enter a transfer biology or chemistry program or enter into the
healthcare field. Funds requested in this proposal will be leveraged with approximately $777,000 from the
Western Nevada College Foundation to complete this $1 million project.
