In May of 2023, a two-story project began in Fargo Quad to provide a more welcoming entrance to the Ellicott Complex. Slated to be completed in the summer of 2024, the renovations will provide comfortable spaces for students and assist with wayfinding for the six buildings included in the complex.
The first floor will include welcome areas, four student lounges, a conference room, a courtyard patio, a video wall and a residence hall room for tours. Leading to the second floor will be a "social staircase" where students can gather. The second floor will include lounge spaces and offices for housing services and residential life.
