Church and Wrisberg Hall,
the dormitories at Capitol
Campus, underwent the first
stage of a $lOO,OOO facelift this
summer, aimed at making the
buildings quieter and more
attractive.
The dorms, which were built
in 1958, currently house 274
students. Before the lockers
were replaced with new walls,
residents said noise and the lack
of privacy were big problems.
Sound travelled between the
rooms through the metal
lockers which acted as a
conductor.
The rooms also needed pain
ting so officials replaced the old
blue and green paint with a
uniform white for all rooms.
“The concept to improve
residential facilities began
several years ago,” said Assis
tant Provost for Student Af
fairs James South. Most of the
ideas for the renovation, he
said, came from students who
lived in the resident housing
facilities.
The first priority on the list
is more privacy for dorm
students, South said. This pro
ject began with the removal of
metal lockers which were
'replaced with walls. The tiled
floor was repaired where the
lockers sat, according to Frank
Williams, resident housing

director said.
Williams also said new
washers and dryers were install
ed to replace the old ones which
were inefficient and fire alarms
in the halls were replaced with
new ones.
According to South, the next
step in the project is replacing
the room doors with solid, core
doors
Completely refurbishing the
bathrooms which includes put
ting in separate shower stalls,
Williams said, suspended ceil
ings and better lighting in the
hallways are also under
consideration

the best improvement was ‘ ‘the
new closets because the room
doesn’t feel like such a locker
room.”
Marci Cryts, a resident assis
tant in Church Hall, saw the
best improvement in “the pain
ting of the rooms, which add
ed a positive uniformity.”
Another project being
discussed is the piece-by-piece
renovation of the Meade
Heights housing facilities,
which were built in 1958 and
house some 400 students. The
