Happy  June,  everyone  —&nbsp;



Summer  classes  began  this  week,  and  much  is  happening  on  campus  as  we  prepare  to  welcome  students  in  the  fall.  The  lower  level  of  the  Public  Affairs  Center  will  be  closed  for  plumbing  renovations,  construction  on  the  new  Library  Commons  is  set  to  begin,  and  work  to  improve  campus-wide  Wi-Fi  is  ongoing.  You  can  read  more  below  about  these  initiatives.  Thanks  to  our  teams  that  are  hard  at  work  to  complete  these  important  projects.</div>

        <div  class="newsletter-txt">Thanks  to  campus  and  system-level  financial  support,  ITS  is  in  the  process  of  implementing  a  campus-wide  infrastructure  refresh  as  part  of  our  efforts  to  improve  Wi-Fi  performance.  This  is  a  multi-phase  project  with  an  expected  projected  completion  date  of  August  2025.



During  the  week  of  June  2,  we  will  be  upgrading  the  Student  Life  Building  (SLB)  and  the  Visual  Performing  Arts  Building  (VPA).



During  the  transition  for  each  building,  laptops,  tablets,  and  phones  should  automatically  switch  to  the  new  Wi-Fi  after  a  possible  brief  interruption  in  service.</div>
