ANDERSON (AP) - Ivy Tech Community College plans to build a new central Indiana campus along Interstate 69 in Anderson.
School and city officials announced Tuesday that the new $20 million campus would be built on a 40-acre strip of farmland near the exit for Indiana 9 into the city.
Ivy Tech-Anderson Vice Chancellor James Willey said construction on the new 85,000-square-foot campus building could begin in the spring. School officials say enrollment at the Anderson campus has grown 23 percent in the past five years to 2,600 students.
Willey says the current Ivy Tech campus in Anderson will remain in use, with its emphasis shifting to health services programs.
The city is buying the land for the new campus and giving it to Ivy Tech.
