Meetings, activities, office use and dining at the University Center won’t be affected by construction until after Commencement in May 2019.

I’d like to thank the students, faculty and staff who came to our University Forum last Monday, November 5, to hear updates and ask questions about the Ruth S. Harley University Center project.

As promised, I would like to share our next update regarding some of the temporary changes we will all need to make in the New Year as the renovation of the Ruth S. Harley University Center (UC) progresses. As you probably expect, the project is a big one, and it’s going to have an impact on the important spaces and services that our UC currently provides.

As you know, this spring we will begin to renovate the existing Ruth S. Harley University Center to reflect the changing needs of our University. Our goal is to communicate with you each week as updates are made available.

The University has kept the ¹û½´ÊÓƵ student body in the loop regarding the fact that the Ruth S. Harley University Center (UC), home to administrative offices, student organizations, lounges, and dining and conference facilities, will be undergoing major, state-of-the-art renovations.

As we await final approval from New York state to begin the Ruth S. HarleyUniversity Center (UC) renovation, I wanted to take a moment to acknowledge the work of our Faculty Advisory Panels, Student Advisory Panels, and the many other faculty, staff and students who offered their expertise and ideas for the project.

¹û½´ÊÓƵ learned in June that we will receive a $5 million Higher Education Capital (HECap) Matching Grant from New York State to help finance the renovation of the Ruth S. Harley University Center.

As ¹û½´ÊÓƵ's student body grows, and as more students choose to live on campus, renovating the Ruth S. Harley University Center has become a key goal for the University.

A quick update on our plans for renovating the Ruth S. Harley University Center and information on other academic improvements at ¹û½´ÊÓƵ.

Sixty years ago, ¹û½´ÊÓƵ commissioned a campus master plan and, a few years later, built a library designed by one of the 20th century's most notable architects: Richard Neutra.
