Changing spaces

Welcome to CN&R’s annual Back to School Issue. This is an exciting time of year for our community’s educational institutions as well as the public at large. Classes begin at Chico State and Butte College next week, and Chico Unified School District is already in session.

In this package of stories, we take a look at all three institutions, with a focus on the sweeping physical changes to their respective campuses over the last decade, as well as future projects, some of which are reliant on the passage of local bond measures.

As always, we hope this is a productive and successful school year for students and faculty.
