WASHINGTON – Senator Chuck Grassley today said that the U.S. Department of Education has released $476,000 in congressionally directed funds to Coe College in Cedar Rapids. Congress appropriated the funds through the 2009 Omnibus Appropriations Act.
"These funds will help Coe College provide students with updated technology as well as a safer campus in case of a disaster," Grassley said.
Coe College will use the money to help update computer infrastructure, extend wireless coverage throughout campus, enhance disaster recovery capabilities, and create a more sustainable printing environment.
