Exciting things happening! 🦺 We’d like to give you a heads-up that the building will undergo renovations throughout the month of July. 🚧 As part of this process, all carpeting will be removed and temporary walkways will be installed to maintain accessibility.
We’re excited about these improvements and appreciate your patience during this time. The renovations are scheduled to be completed before the start of the fall class season. ✨
