Kilgore_CollegeKILGORE – Kilgore College held a public ceremony Thursday to officially re-open the Randolph C. Watson Library and dedicate the new Mike Miller Plaza. Built in in 1967, the library underwent a $2 million redesign and renovation over the last year. The bottom floor of the library now has computer pods, lounge areas with new furniture and a coffee shop. Upstairs now contains the traditional book area with large glassed-in rooms for group study and two large computer labs.

In July of last year, school trustees approved roughly $1 million to construct a park area in the central portion of campus where the Martha Pfaff Ivan Liberal Arts Building was located prior to demolition in 2014. The Mike Miller Plaza features a star design in the center of campus and a new plant garden located on the west side of the new park. Money for the plaza and garden was donated by Mike Miller upon his death in 2007.
