last fall after the building underwent
extensive renovations.
The center unveiled the improve-
ments, which were largely structural,
in a reopening festival last September.
The University allocated $1 million
to complete the renovations.
The improvements included upgrad-

of the facility," Stallings said. "It
will still be a really good place for
students to go."

He helped the University delegation make contacts in Beijing and Shanghai.
