student housing to the Main Campus, away
from South Campus, as part of a long-term
plan to create a more concentrated university.

site the Campus Framework document
detailing the concepts behind major construc-
tion projects that started at the end of the
school year in May.

said the community will be updated on indi-
vidual projects as they
begin. Dome update:
