The Undergraduate Student Government had their last meeting on July 15 for the summer. The meeting consisted of briefing the organization on the summer initiatives and plans for the upcoming academic year.

Some of the most important topics discussed were the current statuses of the Rec Center renovation, the construction of the new Health Center and the addition of the new Honors College.

President Alex Solis said the Wood County Hospital has officially taken over the oversight of the new Health Center. In addition, Wood County Hospital’s Dr. Nicholas G. Espinoza, has been named the medical director of the new facility May 30 and officially took on the position July 1.

“The Health Center is a couple weeks [behind] because of the weather, but they are still planning on making that [first day of fall semester] deadline,” Solis said. “Everything is set for transition.”

Solis also said while the Rec Center will be up and running by September 2014, the official floor plans are not out yet.

Lastly, the new addition of the Honors College will be in effect sometime this upcoming academic year. Students will be able to be in another college while being enrolled at the Honors College, said Solis. The college will have a separate dean and will house their students in Founders Hall. The basement will also be fully renovated.

USG will have their first meeting of the fall semester on August 26.
