Dear Faculty and Staff:

The UHB elevator near the women’s restroom is out of service for the immediate future. Parts have been ordered to complete the repairs needed to return the elevator to service. Unfortunately, the supplier is not able to give us a firm delivery date yet for those parts. Once we know more, we will share an update.

Please use the 2nd elevator around the corner in the interim.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.
