San Diego Miramar College (known more informally as Miramar) is two-year community college located in San Diego, CA, USA. It is administered by the San Diego Community College District. Miramar College opened as a training facility for San Diego's law enforcement personnel and firefighters in 1969. The 125-acre (0.51 km) campus has been growing to meet student needs. The past decade has seen the construction of a high-tech computer business center, library, police academy, child development center, digital media lab, classrooms for SDSU's Higher Education Center at Miramar College, and the first phases of a 32-acre (130,000 m) athletic complex, including the largest aquatic complex in San Diego County. A science/technology center and advanced transportation center opened in the Fall of 2004 to provide additional needed facilities. Each semester, about 12,000 individuals of all ages, ethnicities and backgrounds attend Miramar College classes. Currently, the school is facing budget cuts, causing the losses of classes as well as staff availabilities. The campus is going through a major construction, causing the main parking lot to be closed.
