Construction Updates

Progress in Process!

This summer, our campus is buzzing with progress. A number of important construction and renovation projects are underway to enhance academic and residential spaces, improve accessibility and enhance safety. 

While we’re excited about the improvements these projects will bring, we also recognize that construction can bring temporary inconveniences—like detours, parking lot closures, and a bit more dust and noise than usual.

We appreciate your patience and flexibility as we work through these projects. Check back to stay informed and to see how the work is unfolding.
