Facts And Figures

bullet At 78,000 square feet, the Charles H. Jones Building is the largest facility on campus and Macon State College's first three - story structure.  Classes will be held in the Jones Building beginning summer semester 2004. 

 
bullet With state - of - the - art labs and 'smart' classrooms, the Jones Building will house the Division of Nursing and Health Sciences and the Division of Natural Sciences and Mathematics.  The building's ultra - modern labs for biology, chemistry, physics and math will replace facilities built in 1967.
