For the first time, architectural renderings of the highly-anticipated $50 million renovation and expansion of the University of Mississippi’s Student Union are available to the public.
The four-color, eight-page brochure features drawings of a Grove-side view, north bird’s-eye view, north exterior view, east entrance view and second-floor views of the dining and lobby areas. Also included are renderings of the Student Union ballroom, conference room and council room.
Construction, which began in early July, is expected to be completed by 2019. Upgrading the building will increase its size from 97,000 square feet to about 157,000 square feet.
“The Student Union expansion and renovation project supports the university’s commitment to developing student leaders by providing opportunities to enhance their leadership capacity, value-based development and social responsibility,” said Brandi Hephner LaBanc, UM vice chancellor for student affairs. “The university will capitalize on this opportunity to continue our success in providing leadership opportunities and supporting student activities for Ole Miss students for years to come.”
