Case Studies
Dean College
"I have had the pleasure of seeing the Dean College campus transformed by CampusCare®. Dean now has a landscape that is talked about all over town and always mentioned on our Open House and Dean for the Day evaluations as a significant asset. The staff is remarkable and the price affordable for small colleges who want quality at a price they can afford."
"We regularly receive favorable comments from parents, alumni, and the local community members on the attractive appearance of the property. The success of any institution depends on achieving the desired results while staying within fiscal constraints. CampusCare®'s service has consistently met or exceeded our expectations while staying within agreed upon budget parameters."
"When families visit our campus they often know by the time they reach the Admission Office if they are still interested in the tour and interview. First impressions is an invaluable tool for recruiting the pool of students we desire. The campus is a 360-degree window of first impressions so I cannot afford for any areas to be undesirable. CampusCare® has consistently portrayed our school favorably to all who visit."
CampusCare®'s first client was Dean College with services beginning in August 1996. Initially, Dean had contacted CampusCare® with an urgent request for support services. Dean requested that CampusCare® crews work alongside the in-house crew in order to prepare for the upcoming fall semester.
After exceeding Dean's expectations in providing exceptional support services, CampusCare® was asked to provide consulting and ultimately the decision was made to employ CampusCare® as a full time, onsite service provider for all grounds maintenance and sports turf needs.
Dean recognized the value of the resources, experience, and expertise that CampusCare® could provide while simultaneously saving the college considerable time and expense. Additionally, by employing CampusCare®, Dean avoided significant capital expenditures to purchase and maintain equipment that would be used selectively. Shortly after CampusCare® assumed the role of the full time service provider for Dean in 1997, the college opted to allow CampusCare® to handle snow and ice removal as well.
In addition to providing these routine services for the past eleven years, CampusCare® has aided Dean in the successful completion of many special projects. These include renovations at Grant Field, the installation of a well and irrigation system, the landscape/irrigation installation at a new residence hall, and the re-construction of Longley Baseball field. The partnership of Dean College and CampusCare® has been immensely successful for both parties.
