�SUMMARY
West Shore Community College was established in
March of 1967 in response to a growing need for
academic and occupational education beyond the
high school level in the area served by the Manistee
and Mason Intermediate School Districts and
neighboring districts on the west coast of Michigan.
Located about nine miles from Ludington and
some eighteen miles from Manistee in the lower
half of its service area, West Shore as a comprehensive community college is dedicated to the service
of the community. The curriculum is designed to
provide the first two years of a four-year program
for those interested in a bachelor's degree as well as
to provide programs in occupational and technical
areas. Both innovative teaching techniques and the
traditional approaches to learning will be practiced.
The physical development needs of West Shore as
outlined through 1979 include a Student Services
Building, Technical-Vocational Center, Instructional Media Center, General Studies Building, an
Area Vocational Center, and a Health, Physical
Education and Recreation Building with related
facilities. Imposing the physical needs of the
instructional plan on the site is to be done with the
utmost care in the interest of preserving the natural
beauty of the site. Toward this goal the concept of
a "pedestrian campus" was established very early
in the planning process.
The automobile is to be relegated to the perimeter
of the campus, where its unreasonable demand for
space will do little in the way of destroying the
maturb woods, open meadow land, and wooded
ravine all of which are an inherent part of the
campus of West Shore Community College.

�I. HISTORY

II. NEEDS OF THE AREA

Estimated Enrollment

West Shore Community College, a public community college, was organized in accordance with Act
No. 331 of the Public Acts of 1966 in the State of
Michigan and established by a vote of the people
on March 6, 1967. The establishment of this
college district, comprised of Manistee Intermediate School District and Mason Intermediate School
District, represents the culmination of several years
of study and dedicated effort on the part of the
citizens of the two county area.

From the Feasibility Study 1 for the formation of
the West Shore Community College, and through
the insight provided relative to student, industrial,
and business needs in the Area Vocational Education Study,2 it is apparent that the area of Western
Michigan to be served by the college can profit
from the services of a comprehensive community
college. The West Shore Community College District includes the areas inscribed by the boundaries
of the Manistee Intermediate School District and
the Mason Intermediate School District plus the
Walkerville and Weare-Crystal School Districts in
Oceana County, on the west coast of the State of
Michigan. This 1146 square mile area, plus several
contiguous counties and school districts, are currently outside the service area of existing community college districts. In fact, the closest college to
any community in the new West Shore Community
College District is at least forty-five miles distant.

The campus plan calls for a complement of 1,050
fiscal year full-time equated students by 1979. The
estimated breakdown of general academic and
technical-vocational students is 65% and 35%,
respectively.

The college district is governed by a seven member
board of trustees elected at large from the District.
It is financed by legislative appropriation, a district-wide tax levy, and student tuition.
The administrative organization of the college was
started in October of 1967 when the president
assumed office; subsequently, other staff members
have been selected to assist with the planning and
development of the college program and the
campus facilities. This staffing includes: dean of
business services, dean of instruction—technical
studies, dean of student personnel services, and the
director of the instructional media center.
On June 10, 1969, the voters of the Walkerville
School District and the Weare-Crystal School District approved a referendum to annex to the West
Shore Community College District.

The population of the college district, according to
the 1960 U.S. Census, is 43,086. Demographic
studies indicate that college age population (18 and
19 year olds) in the district is expected to average
to at least 1,500 young men and women for several
years.
All measures of potential students, including the
number of 18 and 19 year olds, the number of high
school graduates, the total high school enrollments,
and the student interest—all of which have been
documented in the aforementioned studies
—indicate that an adequate number of students to
operate a community college are available in the
West Shore Community College District. By
1978-79, the enrollment of the college can be
expected to be about 1,050.

The Area Vocational Education Study presents
additional evidence that there is great need for new
and expanded programs of occupational education
in the Manistee and Mason County area. This need
derives from the population to be served, the
changing nature of occupations and employment,
and the expressed training requirements of employers and the individual aspirations of parents for
their children, student educational and occupational goals, and adult interests in continuing
education for occupational and personal improvement. The need for a community college exists
wherever large numbers of capable students cannot
afford to go to college because of the costs of
living away from home, the commuting distance,
the high tuition, or the entrance requirements are
geared to the academic elite. All of these, as well as
some other barriers, have been cited in our studies
of post-high school educational needs in the West
Shore Community College area.

Existing Physical Facilities
and Enrollments
The first classes at West Shore Community College
were conducted on a part-time basis in the facilities
of the local public school systems. Classes in
September, 1968 met in the cities of Manistee and
Scottville. Enrollment for the 1968-69 year generated a FTE count of 30.4.
West Shore Community College opened full-time
classes in the 1969-70 school year in six relocatable
buildings located on campus in Victory Township.
These provided 4,852 square feet for instructional
purposes which, in effect, gave the college eight
classrooms.
The technical programs, at this time, were housed
in a rented facility three miles south of the
campus, which provides 4,552 square feet and
houses A u t o m o t i v e Technology, Industrial
Drafting, Marine Engine Repair, and Machine Tool
Technology. The practical nursing course was
quartered in the Mercy Hospital of Manistee.
The above listed facilities accommodated an opening student head count of 323 which converts to
an FTE of 224.322. This may be broken down as
231 college transfer students, 92 career occupational students, plus 48 community and adult
education students. A faculty consisting of
eighteen full-time and eight part-time instructors
comprise the present staff.

III. THE REGIONAL PICTURE
Access to Campus
The site selected for West Shore Community
College is well related to the median point of
population as defined by the Community College
consultants from Michigan State University. Ten
alternative sites in the college District were considered prior to the final selection by the West
Shore Community College Board of Trustees. The
campus site has excellent access from Sugar Grove
Road on the south, and Stiles Road to the west.
North-south traffic on U.S. 31 will use Sugar Grove
Road for direct access to the campus.
When U.S. 31 is relocated to a new alignment in
the western section of the two county area, access
will be available along Stiles Road north of the
campus. A decision has not been reached on the
exact location of the interchange, but the new U.S.
31 expressway will provide an improved linkage
with the land areas on the north and south edges of
the Manistee-Mason County area. The reduction in
driving time from the northern townships will be
important to the long term development of the
Community College and the future growth of this
section of Mason County.

Manistee &amp; Mason Intermediate School District

Access from Ludington, Scottville, Manistee and
other communities will be via existing State and
County roads. Minor road improvements have been
completed to establish comparable linkages to all
areas within the College District.

Zoning
Presently, all land contiguous with the West Shore
Community College property is either undeveloped
or is being utilized for farming purposes. However,
the land along the western side of Stiles Road
adjacent to the campus is zoned commercial,
residential, or farming while all other land that
abuts the college property is zoned residentialfarming.
The nature of development that will eventually
occur adjacent to the campus will undoubtedly
exert a profound effect upon the college. The
development of spontaneous and haphazard land
use patterns adjacent to the campus could conceivably have a negative effect on both the physical
campus environment and the quiet dignity which is
normally associated with an institution of higher
learning.
Consequently, the college should keep itself informed of all land use development proposals in
the vicinity and should work with the community
in an effort to formulate land use patterns which
will be beneficial to all concerned. Although the
college has no direct control over the zoning of
land outside its boundaries, it can exert a strong
influence on zoning decisions which will directly
affect the campus environment.

�IV. INSTRUCTIONAL PLAN
Educational Philosophy
The Board of Trustees for the West Shore Community College has approved a series of policies which
establish the framework for the organization and
operation of the college. The preface to these
policies is the educational philosophy for the
institution.

Some definition of the phrase "comprehensive
community college" should be made at this point
to explain the comments which follow in the
statement of this philosophy of education. "The
comprehensive community college" means an educational institution providing, primarily for all
persons above the twelfth grade level, within
commuting distance, collegiate and non-collegiate
level education including area technical-vocational
education programs which may result in the
granting of diplomas and certificates including
those known as associate degrees but not including
baccalaureate or higher degrees.
An area vocational-education program means a
program of organized systematic instruction designed to prepare the following individuals for
useful employment in recognized occupations:
(a)

As a point of departure and as an aid in setting the
stage for a report of the educational plan, we
believe it important to state and, in some measure,
interpret this philosophy.
West Shore Community College, as a
comprehensive community college, is
dedicated to the service of its community. The college shall make education
beyond the high school level available to
all students interested in, and capable of,
benefiting from such a program of higher
education. In addition, it shall provide
the program and facility for an area
vocational school of both secondary
school and college levels.
The quality and effectiveness of instruction offered by the college is important
to all those interested in higher education—students, teachers, administrators,
alumni, and the general public. It is the
responsibility of the administration of
the college to facilitate instruction and
lead its staff and students to personal
and group fulfillment in their educational endeavors. Free communication, a
free flow of ideas and feelings among the
administration, the faculty, the students,
and the community is essential for the
realization of personal and institutional
goals.

6

Persons who have completed or left
high school and who are available
for full-time study in preparation
for entering the labor market;

(b)

Persons who have already entered
the labor market and who need
training to achieve stability or advancement in employment;

(c)

Persons enrolled in high school.

When programs or courses are provided for persons
enrolled in high school, the provision of the
programs or courses shall be requested for each of
the individuals by the superintendent or his designated representative of the school district in which
the person is enrolled.
The word "area," in the phrase "area technicalvocational education program," refers to the geographical territory within the district, and whatever
territory without the district as is designated as the
service area of the district by the state board of
education. A community college is eligible to
receive such state aid and assistance as may be
appropriated by the legislature for the aid and
support of junior colleges or community colleges.1

As a "community college," West Shore Community College will serve the college-age-population in
the college district (the Intermediate School Districts of Mason and Manistee Counties, and portions of Oceana and Newaygo Counties), the
counties adjacent to the college district, which the
State Plan for Higher Education suggests should be
a part of the West Shore District or Service area,
and those from the State of Michigan and other
states in the nation.

The main purposes and objectives of West Shore
Community College are:

The term "comprehensive" implies that education
beyond the secondary school should be made
available
in a v a r i e t y
of
curriculums—
developmental, vocational, technical and transfer,
to serve the whole population, not restricting itself
to "college age" population, through various
kinds of community service activities, including,
but not restricted to, the area vocational school.
The educational philosophy further states that
education at West Shore Community College will
be available to all students interested in, and
capable of, benefiting from higher education. This
commitment to an open admissions attitude and
the resultant heterogeniety of the student population in the college suggests a strong responsibility
for excellence in teaching. Therefore, the college
must recognize its responsibility to modify its
systems of communication, instruction, and evaluation to provide environments conducive to desirable learning experiences.

A deep concern for individual students is incorporated in the general educational theory at West
Shore Community College. Simply stated, this
institution's theory of general education is based
on a belief that human learning evolves out of the
blending of previous experience with new knowledge, skills, and abilities in academic, cultural, or
vocational areas.

At this point in the development of the college, the
administration and the board of trustees have
jointly formulated a list of eight purposes and
objectives for West Shore Community College
designed to promote educational activities and
programs which will lead toward the fulfillment of
a comprehensive community college. This formalized statement of institutional objectives serves as a
guide to policy making, to administration of
programs and activities, and to orientation and
direction of all personnel concerned with institutional activities.

1.

2.

To provide a program of general
education which encompases the
common knowledge, skills and attitudes needed by each individual to
be effective as a person, a member
of a family, a worker, and a citizen
in our democratic society.

To assist students in orienting
themselves to adult and college life
by providing a program of counseling which enables the student to
discover his aptitudes and interests,
and assists him in the choice of a
vocation.

A strong well-planned program of student personnel services involving students in counseling and
self-evaluation in vocational, academic, and social
activities is one of the most important aims of the
college.
3.

To provide educational opportunity
in several occupations for those
students who wish to prepare for
immediate employment upon completion of the program. The programs will be designed to enable
students to achieve occupational
competence and to provide them
with opportunities for achieving
skills for living in a contemporary
society.

The programs offered in career studies are designed
to prepare men and women for employment upon
completion of two years of education, or less,
rather than to satisfy the course requirements
essential for transfer to a four-year college or
university.

7

�Curriculum
4.

To offer the lower division studies
which may be used in transfer to
other institutions of higher education for the purpose of securing a
bachelor's degree.

Students may enroll in West Shore Community
College in one of many courses of study. It is the
purpose of the college to present as broad a
curriculum as possible in order to meet both
community and regional needs and also to give the
general, specialized, and technical training so necessary in our society.
5.

To provide for the educational
needs of mature and receptive
adults.

Continuing education is essential to many facets of
survival in our society. The comprehensive nature
of the West Shore Community College philosophy
of education provides encouragement to both the
institution and its adult students.
6.

To make available community services for the enrichment of the lives
of the citizens of the college district
through lectures, forums, plays,
concerts, art exhibits, and other
cultural activities.

As a community college, West Shore Community
College wishes to extend its educational services to
the needs of the entire college service area.
Community service is that phase of the educational
program which provides educational, cultural, and
recreational services over and beyond the regular
curriculum.
7.

8

To provide a program of guided
studies which will enable students
in need of developmental work to
pursue studies appropriate to their
individual needs and to promote
honors study programs for students
with superior academic capabilities.

Another facet of the "comprehensive community
college" is the guided studies program which can
unite curricular programs with the needs of individual students as identified through counseling and
testing activities. The student who is disadvantaged
because of cultural and environmental factors, and
the superior student who can benefit from independent study and other forms of advanced study,
should be served through planned programs of
instruction.
8.

To cooperate with other schools
and colleges, with civic groups, with
educational foundations, and with
private individuals and corporations
in any proper endeavor likely to
result in an educational advantage
to the citizens of the college and
the community.

The college will maintain lines of communication
and cooperation with other institutions in the
state. Articulation with the secondary schools and
the colleges and universities will allow students
greater ease and security in transferring from one
institution to another. Citizens advisory committees, educational foundations, and other interested
parties can contribute to the educational planning
and financial support of college programs.
Since West Shore is a community college, certain
attributes, common to community colleges, will be
found in this college. First, low cost to the student
is achieved by the very fact that the college is
dedicated to teaching without carrying on research
and writing, which is so necessary to a university.
Consequently, community college instructors are
hired as full-time teachers. Second, since West
Shore will remain a relatively small community
college, as indicated in the projection of student
enrollment, the student body will necessarily be an
intimate student body with a common core of
academic subjects scheduled for both day and
evening students. Finally, it is reasonable to expect
that no program will enjoy more prestige than
another. Certainly the administration will not favor
one program at the expense of another.

As an institution of higher education dedicated to
the comprehensive community college concept and
the accompanying concern for excellence in its
program of instruction, West Shore Community
College is making plans for operation and development of its educational program.
The development of the educational program at
West Shore Community College will be dedicated
to the establishment of a climate for education
which will have a learner-centered approach, an
approach which will allow each student an opportunity to secure educational guidance and intellectual achievement commensurate with his interests
and abilities. In some instances, the incorporation
of the learner-centered approach and its implications for individualized study will involve innovational program designs.
Where the development of the educational program
suggests new instructional program designs, care
will be exercised to see that course objectives are
meaningful and educationally sound. Attention
will be directed to the learner and learning. The
skillful teacher will be considered the medium
through which learning takes place, and he will be
encouraged to utilize educational facilities, technical devices (tapes, films, laboratories, television,
learning resource center materials, programmed
instruction), and time to the best advantage he can
devise in relation to stated course objectives.
The occupational programs at West Shore have
been instituted on the basis of findings of an Area
Vocational Study and the diligent deliberations of
numerous advisory committees. These local advisory committees provide sensitivity to the pulse of
local business and industry in their needs for
trained personnel. The initial occupational offerings at the college are in areas that are common to
many community colleges. As time progresses,
programs will be developed that will be unique to
West Shore. Throughout the planning and development of these programs we must recognize the fact
that West Shore will cooperate with the other
institutions in the northwestern portion of the
lower peninsula to assure that needless duplication

of occupational programs, high or low cost, will
not occur. The Instructional Media Center at West
Shore Community College will provide multi-media
to students and faculty who are involved in a
mutual learning-teaching process accomplished by
the means best suited to their needs. Students will
be provided with study carrels, listening and film
viewing areas, and open study spaces.
Through the use of media (books', pamphlets,
periodicals, newspapers, tapes, films, filmstrips,
microfilms, slides, transparencies, video tapes, etc.)
innovative as well as traditional approaches to
learning may be practiced.
The use of media may also provide for a systems
approach to learning in selected curriculums.

Student Services Center
26,020 gross square feet
To provide instructional and administration spaces
for the initial year of operation, West Shore
Community College will serve area needs for
post-secondary education, through the construction of an educational facility designed as unit I of
a long-range campus plan. This facility will provide
temporary spaces for instruction of both technical
and academic programs and allow for the housing
of student service and administrative activities of
this new institution. The instructional uses of this
facility will be moved to other buildings as the
campus is developed and the Students Services
functions, food services, student activities, and
campus bookstore will be expanded to accommodate the student population.
The temporary instruction spaces provided in this
facility are designed to accommodate the anticipated enrollment of the first year of operation
(224 F.Y.E.S.). However, the planning for student
service, counseling and administrative spaces of this
facility have been done anticipating an eventual
full-time equated enrollment of 1,050 students,
thus when converted to its projected permanent
use, this facility will serve the entire campus
through its spaces allotted to Student Service and
Student Personnel activities.
The student Services Center is planned to facilitate
a quick and inexpensive change from a multipurpose building in 1969-70 to a student u n i o n administrative office complex during the 1970's.

Special

Features

1. The Student Services Center is planned to
service the entire campus population as it grows
to a student body of 1,050.
2. Food service areas are to be designed to accommodate instruction "lab" spaces for students in the Hospitality careers program.
3. One wing of the building will be designed to
accommodate all administrative functions, including student personnel, bookstore, and registration facilities.
4. The instructional services division accommodations will include a seminar room for use by
instructional planning committees, general administrative and advisory groups, and a community services meeting room.
5. Student lounge and activity areas will incorporate facilities for dancing, games, and student
government offices.
Note: A copy of the space utilization page from
the Capital Outlay Program statement as
submitted to the Bureau of Higher Education may be found in the appendix. It
must be kept in mind that this copy is part
of the original educational specifications
furnished to the architect. Therefore, the
spaces shown on the copy will vary from
the exact square feet in the building as a
natural result of architectural planning.

�Technical-Vocational Center
25,952 gross square feet
In an effort to provide instructional and learning
spaces for vocational education programs designed
to meet the needs of the West Shore Community
College area, it is proposed that a TechnicalVocational Center be constructed on the college
campus as a part of the second phase of the
development of the institution. The facility is
necessary in order to provide permanent spaces for
certain occupation centered programs and to allow
for expanded curricular offerings to students in the
community college and high school students who
will participate in the area vocational center
programs established for their benefit.
Because of the unique nature of the programs and
services to be provided in the Technical-Vocational
Education Center, there are no facilities near the
campus, or in the communities of the college
district, which could meet adequately the educational objectives to be accommodated by this
facility. For the first year of operation, the
technical-vocational courses will be in temporary
housing leased for this purpose.
Special

Features

1. A satellite Instructional Media Center will be the
hub of this building.
2. The lab areas will radiate from the hub.
3. The Instructional Media Center will also serve
the faculty by providing tutorial spaces and
work areas.
4. All lab spaces will be open and so any individual
space may be enlarged without interfering with
other spaces.
5. Outside service areas, such as parking for the
auto lab, will be between two shop wings thus
requiring less fencing and also removing these
areas from sight.

7. The three general classrooms in this building
may be used not only for technical instruction
but for general studies as well.
Note: A copy of the space utilization page from
the Capital Outlay Program statement as
submitted to the Bureau of Higher Education may be found in the appendix. It
must be kept in mind that this page is part
of the original educational specifications
furnished to the architect. Therefore, the
spaces shown on this page will vary from
the exact square feet in the building as the
natural result of architectural planning.

Instructional Media Center
28,203 gross square feet
In order to provide students, instructors, and
citizens of the West Shore Community College
service area with an Instructional Media Center
facility commensurate with their needs and in
keeping with the service function of the college, it
is proposed that the third phase of construction
include an Instructional Media Center (library)
which will serve a projected student body of 1,050
F.T.E. students. The proposed structure will incorporate a large group instruction area, temporary
classroom space, and faculty offices in addition to
the multi-purpose space essential to the operation
of a college library and instructional media center.
Flexibility will be the key to space utilization in
the Instructional Media Center and many of the
accommodations planned for future library and
Instructional Media Center uses will be used
initially as classroom and office spaces. As the
college population grows, as new instructional
programs are introduced, and as the library collection grows, this facility will be converted to more
complete use as an Instructional Media Center
(library).
Special

6. The existing trees on the campus provide an
excellent background against which this center
will be placed and also provide screening and
wind shelter for the necessary service drives and
areas to the rear of the building.

12

Features

1. This building will serve the entire campus as a
library and instructional media center with
books, periodicals, reference materials, audiovisual aids, seminar rooms, reading rooms, and
individual study carrels.

2. A large group instruction facility with rear
screen projection, demonstration platform, fine
arts and humanities exhibition capabilities will
serve the student body and related community
service program activities.
3. A group of faculty offices designed to accommodate the personnel from the divisions of humanities and fine arts, communications and
foreign languages, and social sciences will be a
part of this structure.
4. Convertible general classroom space will consume a portion of this building in the first years
of its use with consideration for the incorporation of a planetarium in a portion of the
convertible area.
Note: A copy of the space utilization page from
the Capital Outlay Program statement as
submitted to the Bureau of Higher Education may be found in the appendix. It
must be kept in mind that this page is part
of the original educational specifications
furnished to the architect. Therefore, the
spaces shown on this page will vary from
the exact square feet in the building as the
natural result of architectural planning.

Health, Physical Education &amp; Recreation
25,000 gross square feet
It is the philosophy of West Shore Community
College, as set forth in Board Policy No. 3003.1,
that in the area of athletics every college-age
student (with certain exceptions) be required to
accumulate three (3) credits (one year) in physical
education activities. The physical education program will stress the participant carry-over sports
rather than spectator sports. The activities that will
be offered initially will be summer and winter outdoor and indoor sports which are available through
the facilities found in neighboring communities. As
can be seen in the campus plan, a Health, Physical
Education and Recreation building is planned in
the fourth phase of campus development. This
building will provide instructional spaces for recreation activities, physical education classes, and
intramural sports. The topography of the campus
suggests many outdoor sports and recreation activi-

ties such as a beginner ski slope, skating pond,
archery, tennis, golf, curling, a skeet range, fish
ponds and plots for use in conservation and
agricultural classes. A small bore rifle and pistol
range will also be available for use in conjunction
with law enforcement programs.
Today one of the growing employment fields is that
of the public service occupations including careers
in the parks and recreation management fields.
Accordingly, an important part of the total program
at West Shore Community College will be a curriculum in parks and recreation management. It is
envisioned that portions of the eastern 200 acres of
the campus will be used as an outdoor laboratory
for instruction in the parks and recreation field.
Note: The space designated is merely an estimate
at this time, while the educational specifications, for this building, are being developed.

General Studies Buildings
# 1 - 25,000 square feet

#2 - 30,600 square feet

To this point, the buildings proposed for the
West Shore Community College campus provide
mainly for the facilities required by the TechnicalVocational studies program and the Instructional
Media Center. Within the Technical-Vocational
Center and the Instructional Media Center are
classrooms which will be incidental to their-programs until the full-time, equated enrollment
reaches 525 students. Up to that time, it is
intended that these classrooms will fulfill the needs
of the academic and general studies. In 1972-73,
when the equated enrollment exceeds 575, it will
be necessary to provide separate buildings to house
laboratory and studio space for all the academic
subjects.
It is anticipated that the academic classroom
facilities may very well be housed in two separate
buildings. These buildings will accommodate a
number of laboratories, studios, and classrooms to
serve the needs of a wide range of courses from
communications through the humanities and into
mathematics and the exact sciences. Space will be
provided for all the normal classroom activities as
well as special activities in the area of fine arts. It is
expected that these two buildings together will
contain a total of 55,600 square feet.

13

�locate an area vocational center somewhere north
of the City of Manistee.

The first academic classroom building will be
constructed to meet the needs of the campus
population in the humanities, communications,
science mathematics and social sciences. Both
added student stations and faculty office accommodations will need to be expanded as the student
population reaches a full-time equated student
enrollment of 575-600.

The Area Vocational Center will provide shops,
laboratories,- and classrooms to facilitate such
programs as auto mechanic instruction, an advanced secretarial program, commercial food preparation, business studies, and others.

Note: The space designated is merely an estimate
at this time, while the educational specifications for this building are being developed.

Housing Facilities

Area Vocational Center Facilities
Some of the secondary school districts located in
the northern portion of the West Shore Community
College district have neither the enrollment nor the
resources available to adequately provide the vocational training that is so essential for today's youth
as they move away from their educational years
into their productive years. The schools make a
very good start in several exploratory areas but are
unable to give the depth of instruction that is
needed.
The area vocational unit of the college, by combining the students and resources of the several
school districts, will provide the additional training
necessary to insure the students a better chance to
achieve successful business or industrial career
placement during their productive years.
The college district Vocational Study indicates the
number of students that will be in the secondary
school population during the period 1969-75.
Referring to a study made in Kent County by a
Kent County school administrator, it may be
determined that 15% of the students would attend
an area vocational school. Basing our figures on
this percentage factor, it appears that the college
should provide a vocational school capable of
serving 300 students in four to five basic service
areas. The location of the Area Vocational Center
must be convenient to the area high schools. The
present campus will adequately serve the southern
portion of the college district but several schools in
the northern areas of the district might find the
driving distance too great for daily transportation
of students. Therefore, it may be desirable to

14

The philosophy of the Board of Trustees of West
Shore Community College regarding housing is in
conformity with that of the State Plan for Higher
Education, which states, "that the presence of a
residence hall at a community college is contradictory to the fundamental principle underlying
the community college concept as a commuting
institution." However, there may be circumstances
under which a residence hall is appropriate. At
such time that circumstances may justify a residence hall on campus, the Board of Trustees will
want to consider the construction of such housing
to serve the requirements of students from within
or from outside the college service area. The
campus is large enough to accommodate housing in
the event that circumstances require it. Although
not shown graphically on the Long Range Development Plan map, it is anticipated that it would be
located immediately east of student parking lot
"C."

Future Expansion

Funding

Technical-Vocational Center

The funding for construction of the several phases
of campus development will be met through a
combination of local, state and federal resources.
Phase I of construction, the Student Services
Center, is being constructed entirely with local
funds gained through a $750,000 bond program.

Full-time enrollments (based on the projections of
the 18 and 19 year old population 1969-79) should
reach 1,050 by 1978-79. In order to accommodate
the additional student body and faculty personnel,
additional technical-vocational spaces will be
needed. These spaces will be used not only for the
post-secondary teaching courses and the adult
evening classes but also for the area vocational
center offerings.
This construction will provide additional spaces for
Technical-Vocational units that will be added to
meet the growing enrollment at the college. It is
anticipated that this addition will provide space for
auto-body repair, fluid power instruction, heavy
equipment repair shop, law enforcement, data
processing, civil technology, graphics, conservation,
and food services.

Phase I I , the construction of the TechnicalVocational Center and Phase I I I , the Instructional
Media Center, will be financed through a 1.5 million
dollar bond supported by local tax revenues, capital
grants from the Michigan Legislature, and Higher
Education Facilities Act monies granted the college
under Title I of the United States Office of
Education.
It is also expected that subsequent phases of
construction will be supported through local funds
augmented by state and federal grants.

Instructional Media Center
Eventual F.Y.E.S. enrollment (based on projections of the 18 and 19 year old population
1969-79) will be at least 1,050. The eventual
capacity of the book collection is between
75,000-100,000 volumes. In order to accommodate the additional student body, faculty personnel, and increased book collection, additional
seating space and shelving space will be necessary.
The development of the educational program at
West Shore Community College is geared to the
incorporation of new instructional media such as
video-tape and instructional television, with possible eventual inclusion of computer-assisted instruction. A fully developed tele-communications center
of this magnitude will also require additional space.
The Instructional Media Center addition will be a
single story structure of approximately 8,300
square feet designed to accommodate all of these
expansion needs. Included also will be additional
seminar and group study rooms.

�VI. PHYSICAL PLANNING OBJECTIVES
Site Characteristics
The 370 acre site selected for West Shore Community College is indicative of the outstanding natural
beauty which is common to western, central
Michigan. It is endowed with heavy stands of pines,
mature hardwoods, gently rolling meadow land,
and a beautifully wooded ravine with a creek
running down to the South Branch of the Lincoln
River.
The most outstanding single asset of the site is the
wooded ravine which runs north and south dividing
the campus into two distinct land units. Starting
near Sugar Grove Road, it runs in a northwesterly
direction and opens on the South Branch of the
Lincoln River Valley. The dramatic change in
elevation created by this ravine provides exciting
views of the creek as it meanders down to the river.
The greater portion of the site east of the ravine is
composed of gently rolling, open meadow land. To
the west is a smaller rolling meadow bordered on
the west side by a large plantation of pines and on
the north by a heavy stand of mature hardwoods.
The rolling topography provides the area with a
sense of enclosure and separation from Sugar Gove
Road to the south.

Site Analysis

�Development Concept
Very generally, the site breaks down into three
possible zones of development: the two areas of
open meadow land and the ravine slopes.
The recommended approach to the campus development exploits the aesthetic advantages offered
by the ravine and the excellent deciduous tree
cover which occupies the land sloping toward the
South Branch of the Lincoln River. This concept is
structured around two very important premises:
1. In the interest of preserving the natural
beauty of the site, the campus should be
devoted to the pedestrian.
2. In order to take best advantage of this beauty,
most development should relate directly to
the ravine.

Building Organization
The total complex of buildings focuses on a
"campus green" around which the campus is
organized. Each of the buildings has been located
with respect to its function, and the total complex
is tied together by a strong, well-ordered pedestrian
walkway network. Such a network is essential to a
well organized "pedestrian campus."

Student Services Center
The Student Services Center is located very near
the geographic center of development and is
oriented toward the ravine. Here it is within an
easy five minute walking distance from all other
buildings where it can effectively serve both the
administrative needs of the college and the social
needs of the student body.
The lounge and dining room, interior spaces which
serve the "leisure time" activities of the student,
are positioned so that they receive full benefit of
the views into the ravine.
Technical-Vocational Center

Pedestrian Circulation

20

The Technical-Vocational Center is located to the
west of the "campus green" with its shops and
outdoor service yard oriented away from the
campus interior. The pine plantation to the west of
the building helps to screen the auto storage and
service area from view. Room for expansion of this
facility has been provided immediately to the
north.

Oriented to the public and located with relation to
the major campus vehicular circulation system is
the Instructional Media Center. This facility serves
both the campus and related community service
program activities. From an academic standpoint,
this is probably the most important building on the
campus and as such should establish the visual
image of West Shore Community College. Its
location makes this possible.
Health, Physical Education &amp; Recreation Building
and Facilities
The facilities will be located on the east side of the
ravine near the pedestrian bridge. The open meadow there provides space for open field games
(soccer, baseball, track, tennis, etc.) and a physical
education and recreation building. Both are within
an easy five minute walking distance to the
Student Services Building at the center of the
campus development. The greater portion of the
200 acres to the east of the ravine will be devoted
to outdoor sports and recreation activities such as
skating, archery, golf, skeet shooting, conservation
and agricultural classes as well as serving as an
outdoor laboratory for courses in parks and recreation management.

Vehicular penetration into the site is from both
Sugar Grove Road on the south and Stiles Road on
the west. The major campus circulation pattern
consists of one loop road which connects these two
entry points to the campus. All parking lots and
dropoff points are served from this major vehicular
circulator. The visual attention of the motorist
entering the campus by way of Sugar Grove Road
or Stiles Road is focused on the Instructional
Media Center and the major point of arrival
adjacent to it where visitor parking is available.
This major "point of arrival" is intended to serve as
a reception point for the visitor to the campus.
Here busses will stop to allow groups (school
classes, community clubs, etc.) to disembark as they
arrive to visit the planetarium or attend a lecture or
other community oriented program in the Instructional Media Center. The "point of arrival" is
convenient also for visitors who are destined for
the administrative offices in the Student Services
Center.

Vehicular Circulation

Two building groups housing general academic
classroom space have, like the Student Services
Building, been given choice physical environments.
One is located on the wooded slope which orients
toward the South Branch of the Lincoln River
Valley. The other occupies the ravine slope to the
southeast of the Student Services Building. Because of the slope of the land, these buildings could
be a two story-split level design. The main
entrance could be at the upper level on the uphill
side of the slope with the lower level opening onto
the ravine.

A pedestrian bridge links the two open meadows
near the Student Services Building. This link is
strategically located in that it is near the geographic center of development and, as such, provides
easy access to the athletic facilities to the east.
Access to potential future college development to
the east would also be convenient.

Student Parking
In keeping with the initial premise that West Shore
Community College should be a pedestrian campus, three large student parking lots are provided
on the perimeter of the building zone. Each of
these lots is, to a large degree, visually screened
from the major vehicular circulator. Lot " A "
accommodates approximately 205 cars and is
tucked into the pine plantation on the west side of
the Technical-Vocational Center. Lot " B " is located in the extreme southwest corner of the site.
This facility will handle about 280 cars. Located
just east of the Sugar Grove Road entrance is Lot
" C " which accommodates about 320 cars. The
total parking count for student parking Lots " A " ,
" B " , and " C " is 805 cars. Based on a 2 to 1
parking ratio of students to cars, the number of
parking spaces required to serve 1,500 students is
750. The 55 car excess in these lots will be spaces
assigned to faculty, staff, or visitor use.
Faculty, Staff and Visitor Parking
Immediately north of the Sugar Grove Road
entrance student parking lot is a faculty, staff, and
visitor lot which will accommodate about 140 cars.
This in conjunction with the 30 visitor spaces
available at the visitor arrival point brings the total
designated faculty, staff, and visitor parking count
to 170 spaces. Based on the ratio of one parking
space for each 6 2/3 students, the anticipated
1978-79 head count enrollment of 1,500 students
would require 225 spaces for the faculty, staff, and
visitors. The total number of parking spaces (students and faculty, staff and visitors) required to
serve the anticipated enrollment of 1,500 by the
year of 1978 would be 975. Lot " D " and the 30
spaces at the visitor arrival point provides a total of
170 faculty, staff, and visitor parking spaces. The
apparent 55 car deficiency in this category is made
up by the "assigned" faculty, staff, and visitor
spaces in Lots " A " and " C . "

�APPENDIX

Utilities
All utilities necessary to serve the college are
convenient to the campus. Storm drainage, fresh
water and sanitary sewage will be handled within
the confines of the campus while natural gas and
electric power are available from sources outside
the site.

Sanitary Sewage
Storm water will be picked up in catch basins and
carried to nearby streams or the Lincoln River by
means of an underground storm sewer system.
Water
The source of all water will be from wells on the
site. The initial 6 " well provides 150 to 200 gallons
of water per minute and will serve the first two
buildings to be built. It is planned that each well
station will be provided with a hydrant and storage
tank the capacity of which will be sized to allow
local fire departments to replenish their water
supplies for fire protection.
Storm Drainage
With good porous soil available, a septic tank with
tile fields will be used for waste disposal for each
building.
Natural Gas
Gas will be brought to the site from a transmission
line located about two miles away in the vicinity of
Groth Road and Victory Corner. The gas loads
were tabulated for buildings being constructed at
this date, and estimated for future buildings. The
gas service was sized at 4 " with a capacity for
40,000 square feet which would serve approximately ten buildings. The mains were routed to
serve the five units presently planned and a
physical education unit located across the stream
and east of the proposed five units. The gas will
serve as fuel for the boilers, hot water heaters, heat
treat furnaces, science room burners, incinerator,
kitchen equipment, and miscellaneous student
teaching aids.

Electric Power

Capital Outlay Program Statement for
Technical-Vocational Education Unit

An electrical substation is being built on the
western edge of the campus adjacent to Stiles
Road.
The electrical service to the campus is accomplished by extending primary underground electrical cables from the substation to a primary
switchgear enclosure centrally located between the
b u i l d i n g s . The voltage delivered will be
12470/7400 volts with metering at the substation.
Two services will be installed with one of the
services being a spare.
From the switchgear enclosure individual services
will be extended to each building through an
underground distribution system. Within the buildings, transformers will supply 120/208 volts single
phase, 208 or 480 volts three phase.
This system is of a capacity to accommodate a
total of twenty-five buildings of a size similar to
Unit # 1 .

                    <text>�PHILOSOPHY - HISTORY
West Shore Community College was established in March of 1967 in response to a
growing need for academic and occupational education beyond the high school level in the
area served by the Manistee and Mason Intermediate School Districts and neighboring
districts on the west coast of Michigan. Located about nine miles from Ludington and some
eighteen miles from Manistee in the lower half of its service area, West Shore as a
comprehensive community college is dedicated to the service of the community. The
curriculum is designed to provide the first two years of a four-year program for those
interested in a bachelor's degree as well as to provide programs in occupational and
technical career areas, along with a variety of community services courses. Both innovative
teaching techniques and the traditional approaches to learning are practiced.
The college district is governed by a seven member Board of Trustees elected at large
from the District. It is financed by legislative appropriation, a district-wide tax levy, and
student tuition.
The administrative organization of the college was started in October of 1967 when
the president assumed office; subsequently, other staff members have been selected to
assist with the planning and development of the college program and the campus facilities.
West Shore Community College faculty now lists twenty-seven full time, over forty part time,
and over fifty community service instructors.
NEED FOR ARTS AND CAREERS CENTER
Original planners foresaw the need to include an Arts and Careers Center and it was
designated as Phase Four of the Long Range Development program initiated in 1970. An
increase in expected enrollment adds to the urgency of the new construction. Presently,
classes in the Arts are hampered by inadequate space, ill designed for such usage, and
planned from the first as only a temporary expedient.
West Shore Community College must progress in line with the carefully charted campus
plan if it is to fullfill its purpose as a vital community educational institution. The need for
the college opportunities has been demonstrated beyond expectation. A spirit of enthusiastic
achievement predominates the student body as well as the staff and faculty.
The active interest and participation of Manistee and Mason County adults, in the arts
and careers classes, has produced encouragement for the college age students and a lively
competition. Appreciation of the value of these courses by mature students is a stimulus for
the younger people in their search for relevance. With the expanded facilities, greater
community utilization will be assured.
COST AND FINANCING
To complete Phase Four of the Long Range Development Program the Arts and
Careers Center will cost approximately one and one-half million dollars.
The fund raising effort, with a goal of $250,000, added to a government grant of
$415,000 and some additional monies, will account for $700,000 of the total. A bond issue
of $800,000 will supply the balance. Interest obligations will be reduced by an annual
$15,000 provided through government assistance.
It is not contemplated that the milage rate will need to be increased for the operating
expense of this addition. There is strong evidence that there will be a substantial increase
in enrollment as a result of the additional educational opportunities provided.

�COMMUNITY UTILIZATION
West Shore Community College recognizes community services as one of the purposes
of a public community college. If the community college is to contribute to the educational
and cultural needs of the students and community, it must provide a comprehensive
educational program beyond the formalized classroom instruction. A diversified program of
community services has been developed to focus upon the intellectual, recreational, and
cultural enrichment of all the people in the community college district.
A Community Services Advisory Committee has been established by West Shore
Community College to facilitate communication between the various segments of the
community and the college. It is envisioned that through the service of this committee the
college will be more aware of the needs and interests of the community and be better able
to serve as an agent to bring together the total resources of the community.
The new Arts and Careers Center will increase community utilization of the college
facilities. An Activities Arena otters the opportunity for large business meetings, exhibitions
of products, group seminars for area clubs and organizations as well as recreation and
athletic games of the college teams. The community is invited to make full use of the
swimming pool throughout the year on a scheduled basis. Outdoor sports grounds will be
open for public enjoyment and the participation of community teams. It is expected that by
the addition of this new campus activity, the people of Manistee and Mason Counties will be
greatly benefited and the students of the college given expanded academic facilities.

COLLEGE SPACE UTILIZATION
Classrooms and laboratories in the Arts and Careers Center will relieve crowded,
inadequate areas in the Instructional Media and Technical Centers and provide for the
increased enrollment which is clearly indicated.
Art workshops in drawing, painting, design, and ceramics will be given sufficient
space for improved techniques. Music classes and dancing will have areas designed
especially for the best instruction. The nursing courses and law enforcement classes will
be improved by facilities appropriate to their needs. There will be a distinct advantage in
being able to prepare specifically for these disciplines rather than using present
makeshift space.
The swimming pool will not only offer recreation, but classes in swimming and
lifesaving which is so important in this area. It is planned that the Activities Arena will be
used extensively by the community. It will also serve for college assemblies, graduation
exercises, physical education classes, and team competitions in basketball and other sports.
To meet the responsibilities of a "Comprehensive Community College", the Arts and
Careers Center is an urgent requirement carrying forward the fine progress of West
Shore Community College.

                    <text>Reveal Offer
O f Scottville
T o College Board
SCOTTVILLE-Scottvffie City
Manager Gerald Russell met
with representatives of the press
and radio from Mason and Maniste Counties, this morning, to
present the City of Scottville's
most recent offer to the board
of trustees of West Shore Community College.
The offer is i n connection with
city-provided water and sewer
services.
The city has now offered to
extend water and sewer up to
the college site and maintain
water and sewer services, adequate to serve the needs of the
college, at the proposed Site H
(adjacent to Scottville on Johnson Road) at no cost for construction. The college would pay
the same rate as any other user
on the city system.
Russell said the city also
would agree to extend water and
sewer mains and related fixtures, such as fire hydrants,
onto the college property.
The c i t y commission also
agreed to accept annexation of
the college property to the city,
thus enabling the city to provide
such services as are available
under the Home Rule Charter of
Scottville.

However, the city shall not
consider the extension of water
and sewer services to the college contingent to annexation
but would be available in either
case.
During the news conference,
Russell stated that the city
agreed to enter into a written
contract to carry out all of the
above services and upon the advice of legal counsel, has assured the board that the contract would allow the college to
maintain its independence and
that at any time could withdraw
from any or all of these services.
The city council stated, "Any
city would be proud and honored
to have a college associated
with i t . However, aside from
that we sincerely believe that
Scottville is a logical location
and that the Scottville site
would be the most economical to
develop and maintain".
Russell stated that this offer
was made to the college board
at a special executive meeting
Tuesday. Russell said the i n formation was
released this
morning so that a comparison
can be made in relation to
other sites.

                    <text>New Manufacturing riant
Seeks Community Backing!

A great new manufacturing plant, whose product is vital to the nation's security is seeking to locate in
this area.
The name of the firm is-THE COMMUNITY COLLEGE.
Its product is BRAINPOWER for both youth and adults of Mason and Manistee counties.
The question is whether citizens of these two counties want the plant to locate in this area, and want
to help support it. The right answer will bring the firm here and with it inestimable gains for all concerned.
You can answer that question Monday, March 6 and have opportunity to buy shares in this progressive corporation, when the stock goes on sale (with county, state and federal government approval) at
voting places.
The par value per share is—one YES vote!
The corporation already is encouraged and under written by state and federal monies which guarantee
an almost automatic return on your initial investment.
Permitted to locate here, the plant will bring with it:

A Modern Educational Facility that will beautify any location.
Increased revenues for area-wide businesses and merchants.
New job opportunities for many persons from all walks of life.
Enticement and encouragement for young and old alike to further
their education.
Make available these (improved skills and increased knowledge)
as insurance for growth and prosperity.

Such is the challange and opportunity being offered to Mason and Manistee county voters at the pollt
in the special school election to be held next Monday.
It has been said that this is the greatest challenge to ever face the electorate of this area.
The MASON COUNTY PRESS (AND THE LUDINGTON DAILY NEWS) believes this is true be.
cause:
(1) There can and must be NO B I C K E R I N G about the site
location of T H E COMMUNITY C O L L E G E . We must
put faith in the duly elected Board of Trustees, whom
we also have the right to appoint at the will of the
electorate, in their decision as to the site. We believe
that the IMPORTANT issue at stake is to get a favorable vote to locate the college in our community.

(2)

It is true that the nation is in an inflationary period,
taxe rate increases are being proposed on both national and state levels, but T H E MASON COUNTY
PRESS (AND T H E LUDINGTON DAILY NEWS) be-

lieves that tax dollars being asked from citizens of Mason and Manistee dollars to support T H E COMMUNITY
C O L L E G E will be the best investment ever made by
spirited citizens. (It is a MINI-TAX for a MAXIMUM
RETURN.
(3) It is the responsibility of the electorate of both counties
to consider long and carefully the qualifications of the
candidates for election to the Board of Trustees. Voters
must remember that in electing these trustees they are
buying security insurance for their tax investment in
the COMMUNITY C O L L E G E and its operation.

With this challenge before us, let's take a closer look at some of the pertinant points relative to THE
COMMUNITY COLLEGE itself.
(1) W H A T IS A COMMUNITY COLLEGE?

A Community College is a locally-controlled, two-year college oriented to the educational needs of its community.
(2) WHO

CAN

ATTEND?

Anyone living within the proposed Two-County Community
College District (Mason and Manistee Counties)—young
and old—regardless of educational background.
(3) WHAT PROGRAMS WILL BE
OFFERED?

Four major curriculum will be offered: (a). Vocational
Education and Occupational Training in cooperation with
the High Schools in the area for training technicians,
(b). Two-year college courses, that match those of public
and private four-year universities. These courses will provide students the opportunity to take Freshman and Sophomore years of college work and then transfer to a four-year
college or university, (c). Broad General Education Programs for those who do not desire college or vocational
education, (d). Day and Evening Programs so that adults
and senior citizens may "go back to school" and obtain
new knowledge to develop new skills for coping with the
changing complexion in job areas.
(4) WILL STUDENTS LIVE
"ON CAMPUS"

NO. This is one of the prime benefits of a Community College. Because of its nearness to the whole community student "reservoir" students will be able to live at home and
commute, drastically reducing college costs for the in-

dividual student and his narents or snonsors.

(5) HOW MUCH W I L L IT COST?

To buy a share in THE COMMUNITY COLLEGE corporation will cost the individual taxpayer an initial tax levy
of about Vh mills on the State Equalized Valuation. The
table below has been worked out to show this in terms
of dollars:
THIS means less than a dollar a month for the majority
of families!
MOREOVER, revenue provided from STATE FUNDS will
be provided to support over two-thirds of the operating
costs.
There will also be a nominal TUITION FEE (about $100
per semester) that will help relieve taxpayer burden.
A breakdown of the financing presents, what be believe to
be a bright picture: (1). Operations would be financed from
three main sources: State Aid, Student Tuition and Local
Taxes. (2). Classroom buildings, laboratories and library
facilities would be financed from local taxes on a State
Matching Fund basis. In brief, the State will match your
investment, share for share. (3). Passage of the Federal
Aid To Education Bill in 1963, to help Community College
building and Construction, will in all probability, help Community College Districts substantially in their building
costs. (4). The two-county (Manistee and Mason)
total valuation—$146,800,163—nearly a $150-million--provides a sound economical basis for a Community College
to accommodate approximately 500-1000 students.
(6) WHERE W I L L IT BE LOCATED?

It will be up to the elected Two-County Community College
Board to select a final site and develop the building plans.
The proposed site will be selected for its land area, ease
of access. develoDment costs and central location.

�The special school district election to be held next Monday will be the hour of decision.
The MASON COUNTY PRESS (AND THE LUDINGTON DAILY NEWS) urges every one to get
out and vote.
The opportunity is NOW to bring a new and great industry to this western Michigan area.
Your one share is an investment in the future, and a dedicated example of the kind of faith sons and
daughters need to know their parents and their communities are behind them.

                    <text>Site Selection

(Continued from Page 1)
"I feel that this site fills the requirements of the state
board which regulates community colleges," he said.
Draper also noted that in 1967, a report from the state
indicated West Shore Community College should consider a
site with the possible annexation of Lake and Oceana counties
in mind and that the campus should be located close to
Scottville.
On the other hand, Mrs. McCarthy voiced the opinion that,
while the site was "enticing to residents of Mason County,"
it would not be as attractive to Manistee County because of
the location.
"This site has little to offer Manistee residents and
therefore, because this choice limits the college's chances for
success, I'll have to vote no," she said.
In answering questions of those who attended the special
meeting, DeJonge was asked by Scottville City Manager
Gerald Russell how the trustees justified spending money for
water and sewer development when those services had been
offered free by the City of Scottville.
DeJonge pointed out that the productive wells (those to be
used by the students and faculty) will be paid for by Hans
Jensen, one of the owners of the property being purchased.
DeJonge said that Jensen had offered, in writing, to pay the
cost of sinking the wells at points determined by the
architects.
Draper and Raven explained that higher costs at other
sites, such as for road and site development, offset the offer
of water and sewer service.
In summing up the work done by the board prior to
making its final selection, DeJonge said, "To some folks, it
may have seemed to take a long time for the board to make
such a decision. However, this board makes no apology for
the time spent in arriving at a decision.
"The selection of a site involved many things, and it is
highly unlikely that a perfect ideal site can ever be found,
just as it is highly unlikely that all seven members of the
board of trustees could ever agree unanimously on any particular area or site."
