An article in the Herald Business Journal highlights WSU’s top capital budget priority for this year’s legislative session – $61.1 million to construct a new academic center at Everett University Center.
The 95,000 square foot project received $10 million in 2013 for design and land acquisition and will be ready for construction by July. It would house existing and new academic programs offered at the center, which WSU assumed management of last summer.
“I think the building we’re planning is really going to be a gem in the community,” said Paul Pitre, academic dean of WSU North Puget Sound.
