Monroe: Committee will have completion date of construction by late summer 2013 Continued from page 1 the committee will have a concrete idea
on the exact completion date of the construction on Monroe Hall. Phase I of Monroe Hall is scheduled to be completed by December 2014. Regarding the interior effects of construction on the building, the stairwells inside the building are unusable, which means the bathrooms inside the stairwells are unusable as well. Though Tuley said Chris Chambers, chairman of the English department,
has “investigated alternative meeting sites” for classes within the department affected by construction, Tuley said she feels for the students affected by the construction. “Given the cost of tuition, I feel especially bad for the students who are not getting adequate instruction in this environment,” Tuley said.
CABRA HALL Craig Beebe, director of residential life, said Cabra Hall is on schedule to open so staff can return in early August. One of the positive upgrades that Cabra will be seeing is the addition of a full stovetop as opposed to a simple cook top in the kitchens, Beebe said. Other news, Beebe said, is that the furniture for Cabra Hall is being ordered this month. The office of residential life plans to hire a Loyola graduate student as the new area director of Cabra Hall.

TOM BENSON JESUIT CENTER Tommy Raymond, director of construction and safety, said, “The Jesuit Benson Center is in the design stages – the architects have not finished with the plans, and the job is not under construction at this time.”
