Onyx Anneau President's Report 2020

Construction of the new residence hall progresses in preparation of opening in Fall 2021 with 92 beds. With this building comes the generous Campaign commitment of $500,000 from our partner and developer, University Housing Solutions.

Le Fer Hall student kitchens were renovated, making it feel even more like home. Updates include a new refrigerator, range, microwave, cabinets, flooring, LED lighting and tables for prep and eating.

Le Fer Hall community spaces have seen a complete face lift with new carpeting, paint, furniture and LED lighting.

$2 million Whether you knew it as the Green Parlor or Sullivan, donor support has helped us transform this beautiful space both physically and in name. Soon to be blessed as The 1840 , students enjoy studying, meeting and hosting events in this unique room adorned with a mural featuring Saint Mother Theodore Guerin and celebrating our beloved alma mater and ring song.

In Le Fer Hall , $2 million has gone a long way to improving the student experience. Structural upgrades such as elevator shaft repairs, masonry work, ADA bathrooms on the main floor and new front doors were critical, but typically go unnoticed.

Miles to Go… The final phase of the Aspire Higher Campaign’s Le Fer Hall Initiative will address remaining renovation elements which include plumbing upgrades, student and community bathrooms, exterior masonry repair, the Formal Parlor, lighting and sound system upgrades for the McMahon Ballroom which received a new floor in 2018.
