CONTACT: Erin Cohn District Director, Public Affairs (714) 438-4605 May 13, 2004 NEWS         Coastline’s Westminster Learning Center will feature state-of-the-art classrooms, as well as a science lab, art facilities, lectures halls, computer rooms, vocational training facilities and counseling offices.         The City of Westminster will be constructing a community cultural center to be housed in the same complex as the Learning Center. The Westminster Cultural Center will be home to a 419-seat theater and a banquet and conference hall with an adjoining terrace.         "This is an exciting opportunity for us to be able to work with the City of Westminster in a way that will benefit our students and the community,” says Dr. Ding-Jo Currie, president of Coastline Community College.         The $9 million project will be funded by Measure C, a voter-approved bond measure passed in November 2002.         Construction is scheduled to begin this summer with an expected completion date of fall 2005 for both projects.         The Coast Community College District is the seventh largest community college district in the nation in credit enrollment, serving 55,000 students each semester.  The district is comprised of Coastline Community College headquartered in Fountain Valley, Golden West College in Huntington Beach, Orange Coast College in Costa Mesa, and KOCE-TV, the district’s public broadcasting station.  ###
