GROVE CITY — Grove City College has raised $73 million for its $90 million capital campaign.

“That represents 81 percent of the goal,” said Jeff Prokovich, vice president for institutional advancement.

The campaign, titled “Grove City Matters,” kicked off in 2011. It is the largest capital campaign in college history.

The campaign has six objectives:

n $39 million for STEM Hall, a science and engineering building

n $6.8 million for Rathburn Hall, a Christian activities building

n $30 million for scholarships

n $5 million for the Center for Vision and Values, which is the college’s think tank

n $5 million for the Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation, which is an entrepreneurial program for students

n $10 million in unrestricted funds

STEM Hall, which is the most expensive building in the college’s history, contains science labs, faculty offices and seminar rooms. It opened for use at the beginning of the school year.

“It’s been extremely well received by our students and faculty,” Prokovich said.

The 62,000-square-foot building was designed by Ballinger of Philadelphia and was built by PJ Dick of Pittsburgh. It opened in August.

The building is just the first phase of a two-part project.

During the college’s next capital campaign, Rockwell Hall of Science, built in 1931, will be torn down and replaced by a new building that will connect with STEM Hall, allowing all of the science and technology departments to be in the same place.

The building ended up costing $39 million, more than the projected $35 million. Prokovich said the college used some of the unrestricted funds to pay for the difference.

Rathburn Hall, a 16,500-square-foot Christian activities building, opened in 2012.

Prokovich said the college has raised $21 million for scholarships. He also said the college has raised $2.5 million for the Center for Vision and Values, and $1.4 million for the Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation.

The college has surpassed its goal for unrestricted funds, raising $18 million.

Although college President Richard Jewell will be retiring at the end of the academic year, he will be sticking around the college by working in a fundraising capacity to help finish the campaign.

“It’s a great way to use his talent and abilities,” Prokovich said.

He said the goal is to finish the campaign by June 2015.

“We’re optimistic that it’s achievable,” Prokovich said. “We’re where we expected to be at this point in the game.”

The college’s last capital campaign, which was for $69 million, ended in 2006.

It included a student activities center, an academic building and an addition to the Pew Fine Arts Center.

Another recent building is the $11 million Colonial Hall Apartments, constructed in 2006, which helped add 100 to 200 students to the college.

The college has 2,500 students and 25,000 alumni, with 5,000 in Western Pennsylvania.
