What you need to know before construction begins

What you need to know before construction begins

Have we mentioned just how excited we are for construction to begin? So excited!

As we get ready to move into the construction phase of our project, you’ll notice some changes in and around your student union. Of course, we’ll do our best to keep you informed and have signage up around the building. Here’s a snapshot of what’s happening in the next few weeks:

• On April 28-29, International Student Services will move into their new space in CMU 114 and share the office suite with the Office of Diversity and Inclusion.
• On May 6, the Student Union Administration Office will be closed as they move into temporary space in CMU 214 and 216. The office will be open in the temporary location May 7 and ready to continue serving our campus.
• May 5 will be the last day the Info Desk is open. After May 5, we will no longer sell stamps, envelopes or discounted movie tickets. Equipment and reservation assistance will be provided by the Student Union Administration Office.
• From May 6-13, all games in the Recreation & Outing Center (ROC) will be free! The ROC will then close on May 13 at 5pm. We will continue to have gaming and computers available in the space through May 13, though you may see some of the equipment being removed during that time. This decision was made with the input of the Comstock Union Committee (a student committee that provides governance to your student union) and will help us get construction moving by May 18.
• For the summer, the Comstock Memorial Union meeting rooms, food services, and other services will be unavailable due to construction. Offices will remain open and operational to serve our campus community, and we will have signage to help you navigate through the building because some entrances and hallways will be blocked off.
• Parking lot – on May 4, the construction managers will begin installing a construction fence and as such, the East half of the metered lot will be unavailable during construction. No worries, you’ll get all the parking spaces back when construction is done!

We’re thrilled to be transforming your student union to better serve you!
