NWACC moves forward on campus expansion

NorthWest Arkansas Community College is making headway on the recreational amenities in its master plan that was approved last year , with some of the first projects coming to campus. Why it matters: The long-term plan stands to significantly increase offerings and amenities at the region's growing flagship community college, which also offers non-degree programs geared toward filling needed jobs in the area. The latest: The school completed a fitness center in fall 2025 and plans to open outdoor lighted pickleball courts and multipurpose courts for basketball, volleyball and tennis in June, president Dennis Rittle told Axios. The $800,000 project, which includes trails, is funded by a $680,000 state grant and $120,000 from NWACC. The college is also pursuing a roughly $10 million walking and cycling trail project, including a tunnel underneath 14th Street. U.S. Rep. Steve Womack has requested $4.5 million in federal funding for construction. Yes, but: Progress hit a snag in June when the Board of Trustees didn't approve issuing a request required to move forward with construction on a $35 million residence hall to house 300–400 students. The board previously approved the housing concept, location and funding model. What they're saying: NWACC plans to be debt-free

By the numbers: Northwest Arkansas, including Benton, Washington and Madison counties, added a net of about 8,300 new jobs in 2025 and saw average annual wages increase by 2.8% to $61,240. Meanwhile, the unemployment rate increased from 2.8% to 3.3%, still below the national rate. The population grew 2.4%, from about 607,400 in 2024 to 622,200 in 2025. State of play: Professional and business services saw the most employment growth from 2024 to 2025, followed by construction, leisure and hospitality, and education and health services, according to Mervin Jebaraj, director at the Walton College's Center for Business and Economic Research, who shared the data and discussed the report at an event Friday.
