>The Washington Business Journal reports that Montgomery College’s flagship Rockville campus has received $29 million from the State to build a science center.

Lt. Governor Anthony Brown made an appearance today to deliver the check.

Per the Business Journal:

“Community colleges are the largest suppliers of workforce training in Maryland and Governor O’Malley and I are proud to support their efforts,” said Brown, in a statement. “With the addition of the Rockville Science Center, Montgomery College will provide the training and skills to even more Marylanders and will continue to promote Montgomery County’s vibrant I-270 biotech corridor.”

The building is expected to house chemistry, biology, physics, engineering, and geosciences. It’s also slated to be LEED gold-certified, placing it on the cutting edge of environmentally aware development.
