Today will begin student
tours of our construction sites! We are
very excited to be able to get the student-body involved and finally see all
the progress.
In my experience here at
Facilities Management, I have been able to go out at any given time and walk
through these sites and get a true feeling of what is to come. It is one thing to see it in pictures or from
outside of the fence. But it only becomes real when you are able to strap on
that hard-hat and see from the inside, exactly what it is that has us so
excited.
As I’ve been in the construction zones
documenting progress, I have gotten to talk with the contracting crews that are
bringing these concepts to life.
From the first concrete
pour, to the now four stories that tower over the ground which you and I used
to park our cars on, projects like the new main campus residence hall have been
a very exciting process to be a part of.
Of the decades and
decades of alumni generations, no group has gotten to see this campus progress
to the degree that current students are getting to see now. Enjoy your tours and be sure to take lots of
pictures to share!
Tours will be given from
April through May and the first six will focus on the new residence hall. Three tours will be solely dedicated to
students, one will be for community and regional partners, one will be for
university faculty and staff, and one will be a combination of people.
Guests will be required
to sign a waiver before entering the sites and hard-hats will be provided!
Ask lots of questions and
get all that you can out of your experience!
