What's New for 2009-10:
Renovation Update: Renovation of Abel Hall and construction of the new "Welcome Center" will be complete by fall, 2009. The beautiful new Welcome Center connects Abel and Sandoz Halls and includes a new front desk serving the entire complex, plus a new computer lab, hall government, and study room.

The Abel Dining Center will be closed for renovation during the 2009-2010 academic year. For the convenience of Abel/Sandoz residents, University Dining Services will provide on-site "grab 'n go" continental breakfasts and dinners, Monday-Friday. As always, residents are also welcome to take meals at any of the other Housing Dining services. The popular "Husker Hoagies" lunchtime grab 'n go service will be moved to Cather/Pound/Neihardt for the 2009-2010 academic year.

Due to this construction project, students will find that some pedestrian and vehicular traffic patterns in and around the Abel/Sandoz complex will be affected. We will do all we can to minimize any inconvenience to our residents during the renovation process.

Wireless: In addition to conventional wired internet service in each student room, wireless internet service is now available. Students will need to register for wireless service once they arrive on campus. Due to construction during summer 2009, wireless service may not be available in some parts of Abel Hall until part way through the fall semester.

Coming in 2010: University Housing will open a new 565-bed, suite-style residence hall in August, 2010. The new hall is located at 17th & R streets (across from Pound Hall), and will include a new convenience store and grab 'n go breakfast area. Each suite will house four students in double and single bedrooms, and have a living room and private bathroom. Look for more information about this beautiful new hall sometime during the fall, 2009 semester.
