In mid-September, we began construction on our first parking structure. When completed at the end of next summer, it and an adjacent surface lot will add 500 spaces behind the Morrison Center. In the meantime, there is a tradeoff. We must do without 250 spaces during construction. We can only ask that our students and patrons bear with us during this year of transition to a better parking situation at the west end of campus.
Construction is now complete on the first of our two new engineering buildings.
Please consider this letter your invitation to attend the dedication ceremony for the Harry W. Morrison Civil Engineering Building, which will provide labs and a high-bay workspace for our students in mechanical and civil engineering. For the duration of the fall, you will receive this letter every other week. In subsequent letters I will inform you about such topics as our plans for Canyon County, our new strategic planning efforts, our budget request for next year, changes at KBSU Radio and new initiatives from the Selland College of Applied Technology.
