Assemblies offer chance to learn more about plans for new south campus union
Campus and community members are invited to learn about the development of the new south campus union and the plans for the interim while Union South is being removed and the new building is under construction.
This assembly will provide the latest on site design, exterior and interior designs, landscaping, sustainability practices, the construction process, and alternate space plans for former functions, services and activities at Union South during the interim construction period, February 2009 through spring 2011.
Project managers will present material samples, Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) checklists and three-dimensional models for attendees to explore.
A question-and-answer session will follow, along with light refreshments. The meetings will be held from 3:30-5 p.m. on Monday, Nov. 17; from 9-10:30 a.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 19; or from 6-7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 19. All meetings will be held in Room 240 at Union South.
The program will also be available via webcast on the building project’s Web site starting Thursday, Nov. 20.
