The Colonnade
A frequent backdrop for concerts, picnics and other events on campus and a favorite photo opportunity, The Colonnade represents the future aspirations of the University of Illinois Springfield (UIS) campus.
As part of the University Hall Building project, Hanson Professional Services also provided master planning and design for The Quad and The Colonnade. A presentation on the Quad design was made at the University of Illinois Springfield in February of 2004.
WUIS Rooftop Unit Replacement on Dec. 15
Facilities & Services personnel will work in collaboration with external contractors on Thursday, December 15 to replace an old rooftop unit on the WUIS building. Work will begin at 7:00 a.m. and last most of the day as the old unit is removed and the new unit is placed and connected. Room temperatures may be unstable on the east side of the building until the new unit is fully operational.
Printing Molecules
A week before the end of spring semester, chemistry students gathered near the 3D printer in the back of a computer lab, watching closely as the machine whirred. The extruder moved back and forth in small, rapid motions, shaping blue filament into various molecular models the students had designed. For many, it was their first time using such a printer.
