Ann Marie Stevens Science Building Unveiled

Cochise College is honoring philanthropist Ann Marie Stevens by renaming its science building the Ann Marie Stevens Science Building — the first academic building on campus to bear a person’s name. Her generous $250,000 annual gift funds a brand-new viticulture program launching this fall, complete with scholarships, and the building’s new name reflects the scale and impact of her vision. Designed to train students in grape cultivation and vineyard management, the certificate program taps into Arizona’s booming wine industry — 70% of the state’s wine grapes come from nearby Willcox. With hands-on training and industry partnerships, the program bridges classroom learning with real-world skills that local businesses need.
