Facilities will be removing a dead cottonwood tree in front of Merrick Hall beginning at 7 a.m. Tuesday, April 1. The work will be completed the same day. Removal of the tree, which was declared dead by an arborist, will affect access to Merrick, University, and Phillips halls. Please note:
- The access road to University Hall will be shut down during the initial cutting down of the tree.
- Merrick Hall will be accessible through the front door but only via the University Hall-side walkway.
- Phillips Hall will be accessible from the patio doors but only from the back (north side) of the building.
- The work area will be taped off as a precaution. Please remain outside of the work area.
Thank you for your patience as we work to ensure the site is ready to celebrate the Class of 2025 during our May 10 commencement ceremony. Please contact Facilities if you have questions.
