Hillsborough Community College’s Brandon Campus is a gem in our community. It trains thousands locally to fill critically needed healthcare positions, mechanics and equipment operators, and first responders like police, EMT, and firefighters.

More than 62% of it’s student population is non-white, has a HUGE population of military and Veteran students, and it simply educates our students more economically than many state universities do. This is a value-add for our community for pennies on the dollar.

Still, it does require maintenance and the campus has long been neglected by the state. Leaks, crumbling concrete, and broken equipment tells the tale that the 37-year-old campus needs a little upkeep.

HB4351 would catch up on deferred maintenance so HCC Brandon can continue to shine for the next 25-years.
