Lone Star College-Houston North will welcome students to its new Fallbrook campus at the start of the spring semester Jan. 19.
As previously reported by Community Impact Newspaper, LSC-Houston North Fallbrook is the fourth campus for LSC-Houston North, which also includes the Fairbanks, Greenspoint and Victory campuses. The new $13 million campus was built in collaboration with Fallbrook Church and is located on the church's campus at 12512 Walters Road, Houston.
"This location is the best example of a community-based partnership that I have encountered during my 18 years in higher education," LSC-Houston North President Dr. Quentin Wright said in a statement. "I commend Pastor [Michael] Pender, and Lone Star College Chancellor, Dr. Stephen C. Head, for their commitment to increasing college attainment in the North Houston community."
The 51,000-square-foot facility will be able to accommodate 3,500 students. It features nine traditional classrooms, each with the capacity for 24 students; four computer classrooms; two science labs; one collaboration-based classroom; a warehouse lab, which will serve as a central food distribution hub for all LSC-Houston North campuses; and a student services area. The campus also features counseling services, a food pantry, mobile tutoring, several open study areas and a testing center.
