On February 25, students arriving to Saint Xavier were greeted by a giant construction wall blocking off the art gallery and lower level library section of the Warde Academic Center.
The temporary wall was in place because of the library renovations which will be ongoing this semester.
Peter Skach, Director of Facilities Management at Saint Xavier University, says the wall was put up to ensure pedestrian safety.
“Some barrier will be in place throughout the project to protect students, staff and faculty from entering a construction zone,” says Skach.
The wall blocked off half of the main library stairs on the first floor near the L-wing and coverered most of the entrances from the Smith-Morris Quad.
Construction will continue until August.
