College Of St. Benedict Planning New Facilities [AUDIO]
ST. JOSEPH - The College of St. Benedict is moving ahead with a couple multi-million dollar projects.
One is the addition of a $55 million academic building. Sue Palmer is the Vice President for Finance and Administration. She says it will be built just to the south of the Haehn Campus Center, on a space that's currently a parking lot. It will house the psychology, economics, computer science, and math departments.
Palmer says they're just beginning the capital campaign for the project, and plan to break ground in 2014.
St. Ben's is also moving ahead with a multi-phase renovation and expansion of the Haehn Campus Center.
The first phase will cost about $20 million.
