The William R. and Cacilia Howard Heritage Plaza is an outdoor learning center and gathering place for students and faculty. This beautiful, tree-lined plaza is a wonderful campus experience for our students. It also pays tribute to the school's rich history in El Dorado for residents and visitors.

Heritage Plaza is a visual representation of the college's legacy for SouthArk students and employees, as well as the community. Built at the very heart of the SouthArk campus, a location that has always been home to a learning institution since El Dorado's earliest days, the plaza is a lively gathering place lined with benches, planters, landscaping, and grassy lawns, where our students and faculty interact on a daily basis, as well as a central location for special events.

A unique water feature enhances the area, and paved walkways guide traffic to each comer of the campus: the Library to the west, the Administration Building to the east, the Health Sciences Center to the south, and the Computer Technology Building to the north.

South Arkansas Community College has a legacy of learning and growth in El Dorado. We are proud to pay tribute to this special place in the center of our community.
