Photo gallery What’s changed on campus
While many of us have been away during the pandemic, campus continues to evolve as construction projects progress. If you haven’t been to Badgerland for a while, expect to see a new Chemistry Building addition, a Babcock Hall addition, progress on the Sellery Residence Hall project, an empty field where the Natatorium sat, and more.
The four-year Chemistry Building expansion project will be completed in two phases, with renovations slated to finish by early 2022. The $133 million tower and other renovations will update teaching and laboratory spaces to accommodate the next generation of chemical education and research. Photo by: Jeff Miller
