Published by Tynan Shevlin on April 4, 2011 in BSC Activities, General News, Library, On Campus and SGA News. 0 Comments

Remember when a renovated Pius Library was just a dream? Well, it’s becoming a reality, and the architects who are going to revamp Pius are coming to SLU. SGA is hosting a Town Hall for students, faculty, staff, and administrators on Tuesday, April 5 in BSC 171. The event will last from 5pm to 7pm, but you can just stop by if you’d like.

At the Town Hall, the architects will present some of the work they have done at other schools along with some of the ideas they have for Pius. They are in the early stages of the renovation, so student input is crucial as the architects move forward! Make sure to stop by so you can have your questions, thoughts, and opinions heard, and bring your friends too!
