KXAN: Phase 2 of ACC Round Rock campus opens
ROUND ROCK, Texas (KXAN) — Austin Community College's second stage of expansion at its Round Rock campus is officially ready for students.
With the expansion, 1,000 more students are able to attend ACC's Round Rock campus. Currently, 5,000 are enrolled.
A 2014 voter-approved general obligation bond funded the expansion and also paid for renovations to existing facilities that created specialized labs for students to apply their knowledge of nursing, sonography and surgical technology. The project cost about $33 million, according to an announcement at the groundbreaking last year.
Earlier this year, ACC opened the San Gabriel campus in Leander, which also has an ACCelerator lab. Around that same time in May, it closed its Pinnacle Campus in Austin because it needed repairs.
