2022 Supplemental Capital Budget Request
Investing in educational and economic recover
The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted in-person teaching for nearly two years, however,
one aspect of college
life did not change: the need for modern, safe buildings for students, faculty and
staff. Our colleges reopened this fall quarter and more classes are opening to in-person
instruction each quarter.
Our students are relieved and excited to be back on campus. When asked how they prefer to learn, a majority of students surveyed in spring 2021 said they prefer all, or mostly, personal instruction.1 This personal touch is especially important for historically underrepresented students and first-generation students, who often need one-on-one help to overcome barriers.
Job training and job creation
Our $306 million supplemental budget request focuses on projects not funded in the biennial budget. The request will fund minor projects at all 34 colleges and advance 14 major projects. The buildings being renovated or replaced are 45 to 61 years old and their deterioration has a significant impact on college operations.
These projects will support job-training for students of all ages and backgrounds
in fields such as cybersecurity, radiology, welding, construction, clean energy and
auto technology. The projects will also create an estimated
3,000 new jobs in the construction industry and supporting fields throughout Washington
state in the next four years. Investing in capital projects preserves and creates
valuable public assets that advance students, communities and our economy.
