2009Eggheads coming back
Posted By Adam Talley, Oct 27, 2009
Campus has started site work to install Robert Arneson's "See No Evil/Hear No Evil" eggheads on Mrak Circle northeast of the King Hall expansion wing. The eggheads will face one another atop small grassy mounds. The installation is scheduled to be complete before Thanksgiving. The eggheads have been in storage since their removal in spring 2008 to make way for the King Hall expansion.

New wing successfully weathers the storms

The King Hall construction site has been busy, and construction is over 50% complete. The new building fared well against our recent storms, and the contractor is on schedule to weatherize the exterior by mid-November. The brick façade is nearly complete. The contractor is continuing to install concrete window sills and window frames, and in the northeast corner has placed the first glass. The contractor has nearly framed all the second floor interior spaces and is hanging gypsum board in the first floor. I led a hard hat tours for faculty and staff the past two weeks. The framed spaces, many with gypsum board and door frames already in place, made it easy for us to visualize our future offices, classrooms, seminar rooms and reception areas. Two weeks ago, a crane hoisted the HVAC system atop the new wing, and the contractor concealed it behind an attractive metal parapet.
