As everyone comes back to campus in the next couple weeks, you'll notice changes underway with the renovation of the Adamian Center. The new “scrim” (fabric material on the construction fence) is in place around the perimeter. Inside the fence, crews are hard at work on demolition within the building.

Here are some of the project highlights this month:

Construction progress:

  • Over the next month, crews are focusing on:
    • Continuing demolition and clearing
    • Planning for any underpinning needed to support construction once it begins
    • Starting the foundation and footing work for the proposed addition at the front entrance

Office relocation information:

Several academic centers and offices have been relocated from Adamian. Here's where you can find them now.

  • Valente Center for Arts and Sciences: Lindsay 30 A/D
  • Hoffman Center for Business Ethics: Lindsay 34, 36, 39
  • Center for Languages and International Collaboration: Lindsay 22
  • Academic Technology Center, Badavas Center for Innovation in Teaching and Learning, and Learning Design Team: Lindsay 21
  • Cronin Office of International Education: Rauch 003, 005, 009
  • Lab for Economics, Accounting and Finance (LEAF): Morison 220D
  • Honors Program: Falcone N 004 (lounge) and 015 (study pods)
  • Dandes Room: Smith 321

Changes to Campus Access:

  • The quad in front of Adamian and wooded slope behind it are fenced off
  • The existing walkway in front of the main entrance to the library provides access from Morison across the quad to Lindsay
  • The side entrance to Morison (facing the quad) is no longer accessible
  • The stairs from the Tree dorms up the hill remain open to allow access to Lindsay
