Al Shawaf Family Terrace Construction Begins

Thanks to the generous donation of WIT Alumnus Faisal Al Shawaf, a rooftop terrace will be constructed above the Flannagan Campus Center Pavillion in Beatty Hall!

During this time, the Bill & Jean Whelan Cafe and Reading Lounge will be inaccessible during the entire run of the interior construction. There will be some noise and disruption throughout the process. Earplugs will be available at the service desks for your convenience.

Current issues of periodicals have been temporarily relocated to the periodical stacks on the Mezzanine Level.
