Dear CCA Community,

When I met with you early this semester at the all-faculty and all-staff
meetings, I shared a proposed timeline for construction of CCA=E2=80=99s Do=
uble
Ground campus that would put =E2=80=9Cshovel in the ground=E2=80=9D this sp=
ring, pending
board approval. I am thrilled to announce that yesterday afternoon, CCA=E2=
=80=99s
Board of Trustees enthusiastically and unanimously approved a resolution to
move forward. Our goal is to begin construction in late spring 2020, with
completion and full occupancy of the new campus by fall 2022.

This is a moment many years in the making, involving the ingenuity and
input of hundreds of people=E2=80=94faculty, staff, students, alumni, plann=
ers,
designers, builders, city officials, community members, donors, trustees,
and friends. From 2006, when we began asking how we might unify our two
campuses, through more than a decade of visioning, planning, community
discussion, fundraising, and building, we are now ready to embark on the
next phase of building a unified, forward-looking facility befitting the
sustainable living and learning community for our students that CCA=E2=80=
=99s
mission and values demand.

The opportunity that lies before our community is unique=E2=80=94in a time =
of
rapidly changing technologies; critical social, cultural, and environmental
concerns; and substantive rethinking of pedagogy, we find ourselves in the
enviable position of being able to conceive and create a college of arts
that honors the past and embraces the future, in which curriculum, craft,
and community inform the built environment designed to inspire and advance
them.

Together, we are moving forward to complete a years-in-the-making process
of unification that will enable us to redefine arts education for a
changing world, while upholding the mission, values, and educational model
that have defined CCA for more than a century.

As Art Gensler, chair of CCA=E2=80=99s Board of Trustees, said yesterday, =
=E2=80=9CWe=E2=80=99re
ready to go!=E2=80=9D

Sincerely,

Stephen Beal
President
