Summer Construction

Hey guys! Samantha here, I am working in the admissions office all summer. It is great to be on the crew.

Anyways, it is a slow day at the Admissions Office, but we have so many exciting things happening on campus! Construction is happening in many places around the school, updating buildings and such. Part of the library is being worked on, Gladfelter, the basement of Sunderland (next week’s edition), Shepard, and the WPO/College Press cabin. Everyone on campus is working hard to prepare the school for next year, and for our incoming students.

The most exciting one is Gladfelter, our main cafeteria. It is looking completely different than it did just a few months ago, and I am super excited to see the finished project. Gladfelter is the larger of our two cafeterias on campus and it always has vegetarian and vegan options. This updated cafeteria will have more choices than our previous set-up. (A pizza station, a more permanent action station, desert bar, breakfast bar, etc.) These updates and editions are super exciting, and I am happy they have added options that are more permanent. We also have completely new flooring and lighting (which both look awesome). The students voted on the flooring during last semester where they set out different tiles and you could vote on the one you liked the most.

The lighting is also a lot different, as you can see in some of these pictures. All together, the cafeteria is coming along nicely. The workers that have been here everyday are the nicest people and I thank them for it looking so nice. I am truly excited to see the difference in the cafeteria and the finished project. I guess all we have to do now is wait to see the big unveiling.

This will be soon, hopefully.
 Hope all is well,
Samantha
