The Office of Capital Planning and Space Management hosted a town hall event on Jan. 28 in an effort to update the campus community about the ongoing construction of the Clough Undergraduate Learning Center (CULC).

On Jan. 15 Governor Sonny Perdue released his Amended Fiscal Year 2010 budget. Eight days earlier, on Jan. 7, Tech released its 2010 state legislative priorities. The list, which can be found at www.gov.gatech.edu, specifically details the Institute’s most important goals in this year’s 40-day legislative session. Four of Tech’s five budget goals were either recommended in their full or partial amounts in the governor’s amended budget proposal.

While the construction on the Clough Undergraduate Learning Center (CULC) pounds away at the center of campus another, quieter branch of construction has been underway in the Engineering Science and Mechanics building. Room G-17 has been converted into a miniature prototype classroom of two of the new rooms in the CULC.

With the continuation of breaking ground, heavy construction for the Clough Undergraduate Learning Center (CULC) is underway. As of earlier last week, the team responsible for the CULC have shifted to the next phase of its construction, including large digging of soil and other earth in the area that was formerly Yellow Jacket Park.

Construction on the Clough Undergraduate Learning Center (CULC) has begun in earnest. The design process has been ongoing for years, and finishing touches will continue through the Spring of 2010. Current estimates have major construction taking 18 months. The opening is scheduled for Fall 2011.

Surprised students returned to Tech after Spring Break to discover that one of Tech’s main thoroughfares, Skiles Walkway, had become completely blocked off by construction.

Preparations have begun for construction of the Clough Undergraduate Learning Commons (CULC). Facilities began work earlier this month upgrading and rerouting existing water, steam and communication utilities around the site of the new building.

Since the beginning of the fall semester, the Library’s parking lot has been fenced in, awaiting construction for the Clough Undergraduate Learning Commons (CULC). However, visible progress on the building has been limited.

In preparation for the construction of the Clough Undergraduate Learning Commons (CULC), two of Tech’s major roads will be closed in the near future: Fourth Street and Atlantic Drive. Although currently there is no definitive date for the roads’ closing, construction is expected to begin in mid December and continue until June 2009.

After about ten years of planning, the G. Wayne Clough Undergraduate Learning Commons is finally going to be built. Actual construction will start this fall, and Tech administrators and planners hope the Commons will be completed by Fall 2010.
