The most significant portion of the Main Administration Building renovation will be focused on the George Goodman, DC Learning Resource Center (LRC) and the relocation of the bookstore to the current LRC space. This work is scheduled to start in Spring 2023.

Renovation plans are based on student, faculty and staff feedback which indicated a need for more study spaces and natural light. Ittner Architects, who designed the space to accommodate Logan’s needs, added that, “a university library today, and in the future, is about more than books. Libraries are community places, both symbolic and functional representations of scholarship. To serve the needs of the Logan Community the Learning Resource Center must be accessible and accommodate both independent and collaborative activities.”

Renovation will include:

• The removal of the physical barriers around the Learning Resource Center: walls, security portals, etc. will increase visibility, student access and integration into campus life.
• Staff spaces and resources are located at the intersection of the primary library spaces to improve student access.
• Spaces and furniture will accommodate a greater range of technology and activities from individual quiet study to collaborative groups.
• The window systems will be replaced to increase natural light and improve comfort.
• The bookstore will be relocated and re-built with connections to the Library for greater student access.

Will the LRC close during construction?

No, the LRC services will remain open for the duration of construction; instead, parts of the LRC space will be unavailable while construction is taking place. Students and faculty will have the ability to check out materials from the circulation desk at all times.

Where can I study while portions of the LRC is closed?

The Purser Center lobby will be dedicated for students to study and have small group collaborations. Tables and chairs will be moved into that space prior to Spring 2023.

What is happening with the stained glass in the LRC?

The stained glass will be displayed as part of an outdoor installation where individuals can sit and reflect. It will serve as both a tribute to our campus predecessor Maryknoll Seminary as well as individuals who generously donated their bodies to Logan University. The stained glass installation is currently being proposed for the west side of campus, just north of parking lot 3. It will be accessible via a stairway from parking lot 3 and an ADA accessible ramp leading from the Administration Building. Click here to see artist renderings of the stained glass installation.

As a reminder, the campus construction project is being funded through three efforts: financing through an existing long-term relationship with the university’s banking partner, a strategic spend in cash reserves and the “Advancing Education, Transforming Lives” capital campaign, including a $1 million lead gift from Logan alum Dr. Arlan (’61) and Mrs. Judi Fuhr.

For questions, please contact a member of the Construction Communications Committee.

The following timeline (below, available for download and on the main page) has been provided for the full two-year campus construction:

Highlights of the Timeline

Fuhr Science Center

• Summer 2022 Trimester: Renovating approximately 75 percent of the first floor of the Science Center, and the south portion of the second floor and lower level renovation. During this time, the Anatomy Lab and supported areas will remain open.
• April 10, 2023 – June 9, 2023: First and second floors of the Science Center close. In order to create the least amount of disruption as possible, the Anatomy Lab’s closure will take place during the last few weeks of the Spring 2023 trimester, during break and during the first few weeks of the Summer 2023 trimester. By early June, the new anatomy lab will be completed and ready for use. The University is in the early planning stages to minimize the impact of the closed area to those students using the lab.
• Summer 2023: Renovation of the northeast corner of the first floor.

Administration Building

• Fall 2022: Renovations of the south and central area of the lower level, the new testing center and classrooms G102 and G105.
• Spring 2023: Renovation of the north and north-central area of the lower level and the relocation of the bookstore to the LRC.
• Fall 2023: Renovation of the chapel area of the LRC and the Administration Building Lobby.
• Spring 2024: Renovation of classrooms in south and central area of the lower level and office space on first floor.

Logan is proud to be funding this campus construction project through three efforts: financing through an existing long-term relationship with the university’s banking partner, a strategic spend in cash reserves and the “Advancing Education, Transforming Lives” capital campaign, including a $1 million lead gift from Logan alum Dr. Arlan (’61) and Mrs. Judi Fuhr.

For questions, please contact a member of the Construction Communications Committee.

Please be aware that the Main Administration Building will be powered down for approximately two hours beginning at 10 PM Monday, April 25 in order to run electricity to the modular units in lot 9.

It will be important to save all work and shut down computers before leaving for the day on Monday, April 25. The power down may impact those who are working remotely after 10 PM. An “all-clear” communication will be sent when the power is back up and running.

Over the last several weeks, construction crews have been working to set up the modular units in parking lot 9 which will serve as temporary classroom and office space during campus construction. The units will be ready for use at the beginning of the Summer trimester in May.

As we look toward construction on the Administration Building, specifically the Learning Resources Center, leadership wanted to ensure we honor the history of Logan’s campus while providing the best facilities to our students.

One important piece of feedback we hear from students and staff is that the light in LRC is not conducive to reading. In efforts to improve the lighting conditions, we will be moving the stained glass to an alternative location on campus that highlights and celebrate its value here at Logan.

The stained glass will be displayed as part of an outdoor installation where individuals can sit and reflect. It will serve as a tribute to Maryknoll Seminary, the previous owner of campus property, and individuals who have generously donated their bodies to Logan University’s Anatomy Lab.
