8:
Physical systems in campus residence halls built in the late 1950s are reaching the end of
their expected life. Continuous problems with leaking plumbing, ruptured buried steam
piping, outmoded and inadequate electrical power distribution systems and excessive heat
loss through deteriorated windows are and will continue to be very costly. Buildings of that
era lack elevators and ADA-complying toilet and shower rooms. Serious consideration
must be given to the solutions to these issues and the impact improvements will have on
the fee paid by all students who reside in residence halls.
