Walking through Bucks campus,
it seems like everything is
currently under construction.
Parts of The Rollins Center are
under construction and on the
way to being finished before the
summer semester starts.
Student Life Director Matt
Cipriano could not stress enough
how much these sections of
Rollins needed improvement.
The construction started with
the new Student Life Center,
which is now located next to the
cafeteria, instead of on the dark
and gloomy bottom floor.
The former Student Life area is
now undergoing improvements.
The hallway and bathrooms on
the bottom floor are scheduled to
be gutted in the upcoming week.
New and improved bathrooms
will be installed and the hallway
will be more glamorous.
Even with all the improvements
underway, there are many
more to come. Bucks plans to
build a new message system by
installing 42-inch monitors
throughout the school for displaying
important information.
“It’s a message system that we
need to keep everybody
informed on news, weather,
school closings and other school
emergencies,” said Cipriano. If
everything goes according to
plan, the new system will be
installed sometime next year.
However, construction is moving
slowly.
The delays are due to the
focused construction at the
Upper and Lower Bucks campuses.
The construction for those
campuses is scheduled to be finished
by next year.
Once these campuses are finished,
the cafeteria and
Gallagher room in Rollins are set
for renovation.
