The CLAS construction project is almost done! While the project has gone over schedule, we have reopened the CLAS Study Lounge for student use as of the beginning of Winter 2025.
What's new:
- The Math & Physics Drop-In has reopened with new furniture.
- A new, fully-enclosed classroom, SRB 3264, has opened outside the Math & Physics Drop-In. This room is available for student use, and will eventually be open for reservation for small groups.
- Small classroom reservations will become available again as work is completed in January 2025.
- The CLAS Writing & Language Lab has also received a furniture upgrade.
- A new study area outside the Writing & Language Lab is available for student use.
We appreciate your patience with noise and other disruptions while we hurry to complete this work.
What is the purpose of this project?
The CLAS construction project was approved by the SRB Governance Board to improve student flow and enhance security for university property, ultimately allowing our study areas to remain unlocked and open for student use until building close. This includes:
- construction of five fully enclosed classroom and office spaces that will provide private work, study, and DSP proctored exam areas with minimal distractions;
- installation of carpeting in new work spaces, hallways, and our two largest drop-in rooms that will mitigate noise transference;
- installation of card access doorways that will separate student study areas from staff offices and provide security for staff and university property; and
- permanently affixing our barn door in the open position to keep the Study Lounge accessible for as long as the SRB is open.
What work will the project include?
The project includes construction of five fully enclosed work spaces (both group and individual), installation of four security doorways, and installation of carpeting.
