Loyola Project
The $2.5 million Center for Nursing and Allied Health Sciences opened in January 2005 in the university’s Loyola Hall. The new center houses the nursing facilities for the year-old master’s in nursing (MSN) degree program and the RN to BSN accelerated program and provides other amenities to the 2,000+ other students who attend classes in the College of LifeLong Learning and the College of Graduate Studies.

Features of the center include three classrooms, one of which is for health assessment instruction, a dining and lounge area with computer stations, a resource library, faculty offices, and a 40-seat amphitheatre with “smart” desks and wired podium. The needs of the handicapped are integrated throughout and security is housed on this level. Most striking is the welcoming additional stone entrance that faces the parking area of Loyola. The building was constructed in 1964. It houses the sciences, art, and education departments and serves as the hub for the administrative services of the College of Graduate Studies.

Support for the construction has come from both foundations and individuals. For information on this project or to give financial support, please contact the Development Office at ext. 3125.
