Elevators will be included in the alarm inspection. Signage will be posted when an elevator is taken out of service. Every effort will be made to ensure an operational elevator is available in buildings with multiple elevators as well as to return an elevator to service as quickly as possible.
New Work Order System Coming July 1
Beginning July 1, Facilities & Services will be releasing a new work order system called MaxPanda. This system will be replacing the current SchoolDude platform.
There are various reasons for the change, but we anticipate that the impact on the campus community will be positive.
Highlights include:
VPA Rooftop Work
A contractor will be on site with a crane to safely remove the old rooftop unit on VPA and install a new one. Please be advised that the affected area is located on the northwest side of the building, over rooms 3 and 5, as well as the adjoining hallway.
We kindly request that you avoid this area as much as possible during the specified timeframe, for your own safety and the safety of others. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding during this necessary maintenance operation.
Restroom Outage - Public Affairs Center (PAC) Tower 3
Dear students, faculty, and staff,
We want to inform you that the restrooms in Tower 3, including all floors, are currently out of service due to a critical plumbing repair. We estimate that this repair will take a few days to complete.
In the meantime, please utilize the restroom facilities located in Towers 1 and 2. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, and we thank you for your patience and understanding during this time.
Thank you.
