The expected completion of the Chemistry Annex renovations will be a significant milestone for the Urbana campus and will provide transformative learning spaces for future education and research. Student support through the Academic Facilities Maintenance Fund Assessment (AFMFA) has been instrumental to the success of this Instructional Space Improvement Initiative project. Additional AFMFA projects are helping address deferred maintenance through roof replacements, restroom renovations, HVAC upgrades, and life safety upgrades in multiple buildings.
