As we know, the Richmond campus is constantly changing. From simple things last year like adding yellow Gatorade in Dhall, to bigger things such as the renovation of Thomas and Jeter Dorms, we can look forward to major and minor modifications to our campus every year.

Queally Center for Admissions and Career Services

This 54,000 square feet, 3-story-tall giant popped up over the summer and it's breathtaking, like every other building on campus. This facility is basically the "front door" of campus and is the first major building visitors will see when they pull onto campus. It houses five departments: Admissions, Financial Aid, Registrar, Bursar and Career Services, as well as a banquet hall. The building is nearly complete and its architectural artistry is worth a walk through and look around.

Speed Bumps

The speed bumps are a seemingly minor addition, but an annoying obstacle for those of us driving on campus. The school removed all of the speed bumps on campus for the UCI Road World Championships last school year, and this year the speedbumps are back with reprisal. The road leading from the intramural tennis courts, past the International Center and down to the lake is abounding with way too many speed bumps.

Traffic Patterns

Like the speed bumps, the traffic patterns are a seemingly minor change unless you have a car on campus. They've added turn lanes next to the intramural tennis courts that lead off campus. They've also added a stop sign at the intersection behind the Business School and removed the yield sign from the other side of the intersection. Major moves people.

Open Road in Front of Gray

Finally, after having to circumvent the campus due to construction on North, they've reopened the road in front of Gray. So now you can get an Uber at night directly in front of the building instead of having to walk a few meters in the all-encompassing Richmond dark.

Mongolian Grill

In an effort to accommodate students with gluten allergies, the Dhall staff has started distributing the noodles separate from the rest of the food.

Dhall Prices

Textbook prices are rising, but our Dhall prices are doing quite the opposite. Shockingly, Richmond has lowered the price of something for its students. To students without a meal plan: Dhall has reduced its prices this year. So throw out your packaged ramen and head to the dining hall for fancy ramen.

Waffle Maker

Our beloved Dhall waffle maker that stamps our signature spider mascot on it has been replaced with a regular old waffle maker. Are we peasants or something?
