2015-16 Decisions Made

• Current first year halls needed to be replaced, it is cost prohibitive and structurally difficult to renovate them.
• New first year housing will be traditional hallways with single/double rooms and shared restrooms- no suites.
• New first year housing will have wide hallways and more open spaces than current buildings.
• The total budget for the new first year halls is approximately $40 million.
• Board of Trustees approved the first phase of building in July 2016. (Replacing buildings A-D, to create new first year housing to open fall 2019.)
