Marymount College President Michael S. Brophy, PhD, MFA announced the college’s receipt of an invitation to establish an educational campus in Lucerne, located in Lake County, California. Responding to a request for a proposal, the college was selected by the County of Lake Redevelopment Agency to further develop plans for an academic campus at the historic Lucerne Hotel. The new college location, proposed to serve local residents as well as students from the U.S. and abroad, would be a joint effort of Marymount College and the redevelopment agency and is potentially operational in fall 2013.
“We are very excited about the shared vision we have with Marymount College for establishing a quality educational campus at the Lucerne Hotel, “ said Kelly Cox, County of Lake Redevelopment Agency executive director and county administrative officer. “We believe the college’s proposal could be an ideal fit for Lake County and a win-win for the college and the community,” said Cox.
“This location will serve students interested in community development and renewal, Native American communities, Veteran’s issues, agricultural studies, environmental rehabilitation, travel and tourism and recreational innovation, “ said President Brophy.
