n the 2009 Campus Master Plan, ~ ' Switzler and Tate halls were at the Itop of Campus Facilities list for deferred maintenance/critical repairs to educational and general space. When bond funding for critical repairs became available in June, these two buildings, built in 1871 and 1927, respectively, were chosen to receive their first-ever major renovations to address deferred maintenance, meet new code requirements and provide occupants' new, state-of-the-art facilities in historical structures. Both projects will be completed in June 2011 and ready for classes that fall. "By addressing critical needs of Tate and Switzler, we're also able to better use existing space and increase the number of classroom seats by 270 and the number of faculty Renovating Tate Hall will allow for additional, modern classroom and office space for the offices by 30, both priorities for the English department.
