The Project Achievement Award, which recognizes outstanding achievement in construction management, is presented to Rudolph and Sletten in the category of Building Renovations Greater than $10 Million.

 The 84,000-sf two facility project was completed by Rudolph and Sletten January 2012. The Griffin Student Center included a 27,000-sf renovation of the existing building as well as a 20,000-sf expansion. The new center features student meeting rooms, food stations, a health services department and a 10-foot movie screen in the lobby. The Student Administrative Building was an existing 21,000-sf wood framed structure that was expanded to 38,000-square-feet. The expansion includes enclosing the interior courtyard, breezeway areas and converting into interior space. These buildings comprise the first LEED-certified project in the Grossmont-Cuyumaca Community College District. BD+C
