Maine community college looks to expand

Southern Maine Community College will need $6.2 million to develop a new campus at Brunswick Naval Air Station by fall 2011, school officials say. The money includes $2.1 million in start-up costs and $4.1 million to renovate four buildings that the federal government has agreed to give to the college in 2010. The 14-acre campus will be the largest expansion of Maine's community college system since its 2003 name change from a technical college system.
