JCCC Archives presents the Sleuthing Series, where every Tuesday, we bring you an image from our past and ask you to help us find out more!
A daily occurrence! That’s what it is all about.
What We Know
As soon as classes were over in the spring of 1972, files, media, equipment and everything movable, was boxed and packed for the move to the new “College on the Boulevard!”
A major goal was to get everyone working at the new facility and to get everyone and everything connected and communicating.
What We Don’t Know
Do you know or have you heard accounts of adventures in moving offices, departments, labs, etc.?
