All agreed Massies’ had made major contributions; Technical question over use of Center because of state statute triggered single dissent
The Yavapai Community College Governing Board voted 4-1 to name the Performing Arts Center on the Prescott Campus in honor of the Sandy and Perry Massie Foundation. Vice President of Community Relations, Rodney Jenkins, made the request to the Governing Board on behalf of the Administration.
Board member Paul Chevalier raised a technical question regarding the role of the College as outlined in Arizona Law and its ability to carry out major programming that appeared to be little related to education. How the legal question would be answered might affect the future ability of the College to offer certain programs and diminish its role in the community of Prescott. Without a legal opinion to answer Chevalier, the question was called and the Board voted 4-1 for approval.
