Construction on the new home of the Shocker Success Center in Clinton Hall has started.

As Clinton Hall is remodeled, be mindful that increased construction traffic as well as noise and vibration may be heard inside of the construction fence.

Morrison Hall will be closed starting Friday, Jan. 27 for extensive electrical work and will be without electricity during that time. The electricity is expected to be back on Monday, Jan. 30.

Shocker Printing Solutions and the Post Office will be closed during this period. To speak with Morrison Hall staff or faculty, please reach out via email.

Your patience is appreciated.

With the ATL Utilities Replacement Project underway, construction requires the area between Media Resource Center and the Aviation Testing Lab to be closed from Friday, Jan. 13 through March 17.

Work on the renovation of Clinton Hall into the Shocker Success Center begins over the winter break with the placement of a construction safety fence.

The fence will stretch from Clinton Hall, along the east side of the Rhatigan Student Center, into the east portion of Parking Lot 7 and circling back up around Clinton Hall, preserving access to the Multicultural Greek Quad and the Plaza of the Heroines.

There will be a break in the fence near the east lawn of the RSC for walking traffic, though there will be times that the break is blocked off for construction material deliveries.

The entire campus community’s patience and understanding is appreciated. We know there will be inconveniences during construction, but it will all be worth it.

The Shocker Success Center is expected to be complete, and the fence removed, by mid-2024. Once finished, it will completely transform Clinton Hall into a holistic resource for student services, centralizing access to these services to help students stay on course to graduate.

The Shocker Success Center will house 17 student services that are currently scattered across campus in 10 buildings.

The west elevator at John Bardo Center is currently out of service and will not be available  beginning Jan. 28. Maintenance will last approximately one week. The east elevator is still in operation.

The freight elevator at Wallace Hall will be undergoing upgrades and will be out of service for approximately 14 weeks beginning Jan. 31. For your convenience, please perform any heavy or large moves by Jan. 28.

The passenger elevators will continue to operate and will not be affected. We apologize for any inconvenience.

The elevator in McKinley Hall is currently out of service and under repair. This project is expected to be ongoing through the spring and summer 2022 semesters.

If you are a student with a disability and in need of receiving possible accommodations due to the outage of the McKinley Hall elevator, please start the intake process.  If you are a staff or faculty member with a disability and in need of receiving possible accommodations due to the outage of the McKinley Hall elevator, please contact your supervisor and/or the HR Total Rewards Team at totalrewards@wichita.edu.

Contractors will be on-site Oct. 4-7 to paint the crosswalks throughout campus. This may cause some minor traffic disruptions. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Parking lots 3N (lot on the east corner of Cessna Stadium by 21st Street) and 2E (lot between Cessna Stadium and Koch Arena) will temporarily close Saturday, Sept. 11.

During this time, crews will apply a final coat of paint on the stall lines. All vehicles will need to exit the lot until the work is complete.

In an effort to correct a recently discovered water infiltration issue, the west entrance at Morrison Hall will close for construction Sept. 6-13. Please use alternate entrances during this time.
