Madison Area Technical College Breaks Ground on New South Campus

  • 06/22/18

Madison Area Technical College in Madison, WI, broke ground recently for the school’s new South Campus. The campus is the product of the college working with community leaders to address existing educational and training gaps in South Madison. It is designed to include meeting rooms, classrooms, and a suite of additional community/social service offices. The South Campus will also serve as a hub for STEM and IT training, which will be offered to both current students and the citizens of South Madison.

    School cafeterias and university dining halls serve thousands of meals daily, relying on high-heat equipment like fryers, grills, and ovens. While these operations keep students fed, they also generate significant grease-laden vapors. Without proper controls, this grease becomes a silent fire threat. As a certified exhaust cleaning specialist and business coach who has helped hundreds of institutional facilities achieve NFPA 96 compliance, I emphasize that proactive grease management isn’t optional; it’s a core fire/life safety practice.
