The campus and its facilities were initially located at Clark Community College. Preparations and planning for a permanent location and campus began in 1991.

The materials in this collection documents communications, procedures and the progress of the committees in the planning of the Salmon Creek campus prior to its opening.

The original plan for the campus was conceived in four phases between 1991 and 1994 with the aid of regional data, WSU guidelines and WSU campus planning statements and proposals.
