Get an Inside Look at Adrian’s Changes posted 9/13/07
Public invited to Community Open House next Thursday

ADRIAN, Mich. – You’ve probably heard about all the changes at Adrian College. You’re invited to come see them for yourself during the Community Open House on Thursday, Sept. 20, from 4:30 – 6:30 p.m.

The community is welcome to walk the campus grounds, see the improvements, and tour the buildings. The highlight of the tour will be the brand new ice arena. Also see the stadium, the new hair salon in Caine Student Center, the Admissions House, the renovated Stanton Administration Building and Pellowe Hall, and improvements inside the Merillat Sport & Fitness Center and Ritchie Dining Hall. Pick nearly any building and you’ll find significant and interesting changes.

The Adrian College touring bus will provide transportation to our “Back 40” to see the construction in progress on the new tennis complex, track and field complex, all-turf baseball complex, and softball complex. This will provide an up-close look of the projects drivers can see from US-223.

The starting point for your visit will be the welcome tent on Charles Street next to the Adrian College Chapel. Pick up a campus map with information for self-guided walking tours. For those with limited walking abilities, golf cart tours are available.

Adrian College President Jeffrey R. Docking will talk with guests about the changes at 6 p.m. in the Adrian-Tobias Room. Sit down with some refreshments to hear President Docking explain other plans and initiatives in process, and ask any questions you may have.

Parking is available near the welcome tent in the Dawson Auditorium lot. The Adrian-Tobias Room is adjacent to Ritchie Dining Hall.
