SAULT STE. MARIE, MI— Lake Superior State University is launching a multi-phase campus infrastructure initiative.
The school will invest more than $10 million to update facilities, enhance campus spaces, and create a safer, more engaging experience for students, faculty, and visitors.
Campus-wide projects will include major roof repairs and repairs to sidewalks and roads. Several campus buildings will also receive significant upgrades in heating and cooling systems, improved electrical support, and energy efficiency. Infrastructure updates will focus on improving the comfort and safety of student housing and learning spaces, upgrading recreational facilities, and enhancing the overall campus footprint.
LSSU’s Board of Trustees has approved initial planning for major work in the Norris Center. An engineering study has been commissioned for comprehensive updates to the Taffy Abel Ice Arena.
LSSU President, Dr. David Travis, says a wide range of sources will pay for the changes, including significant new donor support.
