Missouri S&T will move forward on campus improvements

ROLLA — The University of Missouri Board of Curators has approved four campus improvement projects at Missouri University of Science and Technology.

The upgrades and redesigns are part of an overall plan to enhance the campus that’s being funded by millions of dollars in private donations.

The most visible and public-facing of the four projects is the construction of two arrival plazas, at a total cost of $9.6 million, that will be gathering places for people visiting campus.

“It’s very important that we give the best first impression to prospective students and faculty members and other visitors,” said Fred Stone, director of design, construction and space management at S&T. “The goal is to create a campus that is really fitting of our academic reputation, and something that will ultimately attract people to the university.”
