Additionally, the 42 year old Reitz Union building has extensive maintenance needs and problems that have accumulated over many years as a result of underfunding. Over the years, the UF campus has grown more diverse particularly in its student population. A primary goal in the master planning process is to identify ways to make the Reitz Union more reflective of our diverse campus. The Plan - The planning process will include two phases: Phase I - Through focus groups, surveys, and interviews, the architects will conduct a process to learn from the campus community what the current and future needs are in all aspects of the Reitz Union operations -- programs, facilities, and services; additionally, the architects will focus on the multicultural make-up of the UF campus and the corresponding needs in that area. Phase II - After summarizing, analyzing, and testing the information gathered, the architects will develop a conceptual design of a renovated/expanded Reitz Union that will address the needs of the campus community for many years to come. Throughout the process, input will be sought from the student, faculty, and staff segments of the UF community. The planning process is scheduled to be completed in February 2010. The architects will conduct the first round of sessions Monday through Thursday, November 2 - 5. Most sessions with the architects will be held in the Matthews Suite on the fourth floor of the Reitz Union. The architects will return to campus in early December and January to continue the information gathering and clarification process. The original union constructed in 1967, has seen additions as the university has grown, including the two-story Grand Ballroom in 2002, and the UF Bookstore, Welcome Center, and parking garage complex, which opened in 2003. ]]> http://www.union.ufl.edu/news/?id=474 Thu, 29 Oct 2009 08:00:00 EDT http://www.union.ufl.edu/news/?id=467 RU Featured? where you can vote for your favorite picture.
