Does anyone know when the new Union construction is scheduled to begin??? A couple of us students need to know Here is the link to the ppt the design team provided. www.ncat.edu/divisions/business-and-finance/facilities/pdf/new-student-union-presentation.pdfOn facilities website they did list the attendees at a prequalification meeting for contractors. Other than that, that is all I have. I can try to make some calls. But if you are on campus, take a walk over to the DeHugley building and ask to speak with Andy Perkins.

Thanks.....people are trying to decide if they want a meal plan due to the rumor that the food in the sit-in will only be available for half a school year

It's a $90m, 175,000 GSF non-appropriated project on the drawing board during a recession at a HBCU.

02/2017, that's just 5 years. We thought we would never get the field house, the track, the lights and the press box but we eventually did. You all will be hanging out in the new student union before you know it.

When I spoke with Carl Baker, ED of the Union. This building is going to be reality and they are making plans for the two academic years the union will be offline. Some of the temporary spaces will be in the flexspace (old pool) in Moore Gym for Office of Student Activities (SGA, SUAB, COP, Greek Life) plus the Game Room. There will also be a temporary food court built outside of Moore. Also the fitness center in Moore will be turned into temporary spaces for administration for the union.
This is a huge project and we may get a presentation for the alumni to get us to speed. Campus will look totally different very soon.
There will be more use of the Alumni-Foundation Events center for banquets, lectures, etc that would have been done in Stallings Ballroom or in the Exhibit Hall. It's going to be two years of very different experiences.

well, none of us liked the two years of the scott hall demolition which created a huge "eye sore" on that side of campus during reconstruction. but it was well worth the wait. not one single soul is complaining now...

I am glad they are planning to build a new student union. The kids need a decent place to unwind and hang out. I still remember the old cramp canteen in Brown hall that was our place to hang out in the 1960's.
Has anyone heard any news about a new band room? I know this only impacts 200 or more band students but we desparate need a new band facility.
