Muntz Hall Renovations

• Work is progressing on schedule for the new, three-story atrium. It is expected to be complete by the end of May.
• The atrium will add nearly 6,000 square feet to Muntz Hall and provide a new, modern space where students can study, meet or take a break between classes.
• It will include study rooms and a large monitor with the latest updates about the college, upcoming events, etc.
• The atrium will also be available to use for events. It will allow for seating of up to 220 and feature a catering room.
• Once the atrium is complete, crews will begin work on renovating the lobby outside the former Enrollment Services office (Muntz 150) and building a new food pantry and catering room in the area outside of Muntz 170. The lobby renovations will likely result in temporary walkways being constructed through that space.'
• When this work begins, the entrance from the Muntz parking lot will close and everyone who parks in that lot will be directed to enter the building at the new atrium entrance. 

• The wing is located on the first floor of Muntz Hall and includes the 153 and 155 suites. It serves as the new home to the following offices:
  • Advising & Academic Services
  • Career Services
  • Counseling & Psychological Services
  • Enrollment Services
• Our Admissions Team is now in Muntz 152, which is located around the corner from their current office, just outside the new Student Services wing.
• The restrooms near the new wing have also been renovated.

• Current Enrollment Services, Career Services, Counseling and Admissions offices (Muntz 150 & 151):
  • These spaces will be filled by Student Life & Success, Success Coaches and TRIO in the coming months.
  • Crews are working to renovate the spaces with the goal to have them ready by the end of June.
• Advising Office (Muntz 123 & 125):
  • This is a large space that will be filled by a variety of offices and departments.
  • The Marketing/Communications office is now located in Muntz 123.
  • The Academic Program Managers have swing space in some of the cubicles/offices in Muntz 125.
  • There are offices for Karie Maurer, Grant Writer and Autumn Stiles, Associate Director of Development.
  • The remainder of the cubicles/offices will be filled by faculty.

• The entrance from Muntz parking lot, near the Welcome Desk, should be accessible through the end of the spring semester.
• The Welcome Desk will go offline at some point during the project. We will consider plans for a temporary welcome desk/table when that occurs.
• Work on the Muntz Atrium and courtyard will continue through summer 2025. This includes closing off a large portion of the courtyard in front of Muntz Hall and the entrances to the atrium.

• The Marketing/Communications Office will move in February to Muntz 123, in a portion of the former Academic Advising office.
• Student Life & Success, Success Coaches and TRIO will move to the former Enrollment Services office (Muntz 150) in May.

Atrium/Student Collaboration Space

The atrium space encloses the existing courtyard at the roof and north side under the existing bridge. The atrium enclosure creates a skylit area with a multi-purpose study, meeting and gathering space, lounge area, and private study rooms. It will also be used to host events, with seating for up to 220 and a catering room.

Student Services Wing

The east wing is being fully renovated to provide new space for Advising & Academic Services, Career Services, CAPS, and Enrollment Services. The offices are similar to the faculty offices remodeled on the second and third floors of Muntz Hall. The renovated wing includes shared conference rooms, a break room, and storage.

Student Life & Success Space

The former Admissions and Enrollment Services offices are being renovated to prepare them for the Student Life & Success team, including our Success Coaches, and the TRIO office. The updated spaces are expected to be ready in May.
