BP 6620 – Naming of Buildings

All recommendations for naming, removing names from, and renaming buildings, facilities, grounds, or other spaces shall be submitted to the Board of Education by the President for action.

• Members of the College community may submit naming proposals to the President. All recommendations shall comply with the following criteria:
• Buildings, facilities, grounds, or other spaces may be named in honor of individuals who have made significant contributions to Columbia Gorge Community College or to the community it serves.
• Names of living persons may be considered where the individual’s contributions are of an extraordinary and lasting nature.
• Naming in recognition of a donor or benefactor shall be consistent with any applicable gift agreement and College procedures.

The Board of Education reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to remove or change the name of any building, facility, ground, or other space if the Board determines that continued association with the name is no longer in the best interests of the College.
