91成人视频

Since the 2010 Master Plan, 91成人视频鈥檚 on-campus population has changed significantly. In addition, new methods and new technologies for teaching have gained prominence. Nevertheless, plans for the upkeep, modernization and utilization of campus facilities have not changed. With limited resources, 91成人视频 required a strategic, data-driven plan aligned with Plan 2028 and the university鈥檚 ongoing mission. 

The Facilities Reinvestment Steering Committee (Appendix A) partnered with the third-party firm Cordogan Clark to develop an independent assessment of 91成人视频鈥檚 facilities and space utilization. This analysis identifies where strategic investments align with future programming needs and highlights buildings or spaces that should be decommissioned. 

The study also informs 91成人视频鈥檚 annual capital funding requests to the Illinois Board of Higher Education (IBHE). Based on this planning initiative, the following recommendations are proposed for major capital requests to IBHE. These recommendations require full programming studies to determine the scope and budget:

Cordogan Clark has provided a detailed report that forms the foundation for the recommendations outlined by the 91成人视频 steering committee. This summary is intended to complement that final report and should be reviewed alongside it. The steering committee worked collaboratively to develop these recommendations and proposed next steps.   

It is important to recognize that this document is not static but a dynamic resource that should be regularly revisited and updated as the needs of Eastern Illinois University continue to evolve. Additionally, several aspects of this study remain unresolved. Further analysis will be required to refine project scopes, assess financial implications, and gain a deeper understanding of specific building systems and requirements.

• Renovate South Quad housing to meet student expectations, including updated room types and private bathrooms.

Justification: Residence Halls in the South Quad offer the most cost-effective housing upgrade option with the lowest cost-per-bed investment for modernization (CC-22). Surveys show high satisfaction in residence halls with modernized bathrooms, such as McKinney Hall (94% satisfaction rating, PRG-23) while many halls in the South Quad scored lower satisfaction with many students noting the 鈥渃onditions of bathrooms and showers鈥� as a source of dissatisfaction (PRG-24).

• Conduct a facilities study for Pemberton Hall to explore nonresidential programming options.  

Justification: Pemberton Hall has an adjusted FCI (defined on pg BV-6) of 84% and would require a $30+ million investment for modernization and deferred maintenance (Exhibit C). In addition, students living in Pemberton reported the highest levels of dissatisfaction for all residence halls (PRG-23). In addition, the small number of beds limits the cost-effectiveness of this hall. Thus, the exploration of nonresidential programming for Pemberton Hall is essential. 

• Form a space utilization committee to manage and prioritize classroom space allocation.
• Take 50 classrooms offline (leaving 172 total classrooms) and identify 10 classrooms for reinvestment (e.g., paint, furniture, enhanced technology).
• Improve data management in the central scheduling tool.
• Create a working group to study classroom/open computer labs to identify opportunities for collaboration and optimization.

Justification: The classroom utilization study identified 222 instructional spaces with capacities ranging from 2 to 225 student stations across 16 buildings. Classroom utilization is at 27.3%, below the target range of 60鈥�70% (CC-3). Occupancy rates are similarly low at 37.4%, while the target rate of 60% is desirable. Improved data management and targeted reinvestment will optimize classroom usage.

During the analysis, inconsistencies in classroom inventories were identified between academic units and the Registrar鈥檚 office. These discrepancies posed challenges during the evaluation process and will continue to hinder future follow-up efforts. To address this, it will be critical for 91成人视频 to establish improved processes for managing classroom inventories as part of its effort to optimize classroom space. 

An interdepartmental committee should be formed to address the following key tasks:

• • • Identify classrooms to be taken offline.
    • Determine which classrooms should receive additional investments.
    • Optimize the scheduling and utilization of classroom spaces.

• Invest in 鈥渇irst impression鈥� spaces in 1鈥�3 non-housing buildings.
• Prioritize accessibility enhancements across all campus projects.
• Execute the Utility Tunnel Modernization project to improve system reliability and safety.
• Implement initial recommendations from the MLK Jr. University Union structural analysis study.
• Carman Hall will continue to be evaluated for future use and/or demolition.
• Prioritize reinvestment in the Physical Science Building. 

Justification: The Physical Science building failed to meet expectations for 55% of survey respondents (PRG-34). With the new integrated science building coming online in 2028, 91成人视频 should prioritize reinvestment in the Physical Science building to better align with campus expectations for instructional spaces.

Survey data also identified improved interior design and upgraded furniture as areas needing attention, as highlighted by all campus constituents (PRG-16). Investing in lobby and first-impression spaces can serve as a starting point for enhancing these aspects across campus buildings.

Additionally, 30% of survey respondents indicated that the campus is not easily accessible (PRG-9). As 91成人视频 continues to invest in campus facilities, improving campus accessibility should remain a key consideration.

• Decommission the old steam plant.
• Identify low-density buildings with high deferred maintenance for potential decommissioning based on recommendations from the Office Space Task Force. Potential buildings include:
  • Life Science Annex
  • Multicultural Center
  • Booth House
  • UPD 
  • Student Services Building

Justification: The old steam plant has a 92.7% adjusted FCI (Exhibit C) and no functional use once steam tunnel upgrades are complete.

If the office space study reveals excess capacity, the listed buildings should be prioritized for decommissioning due to high deferred maintenance and/or high adjusted FCI (Exhibit C). Many of these buildings have independent systems that are less efficient than larger facilities. 

• Take an additional 50 classrooms (of the original 222 total) offline.
• Identify classrooms for reinvestment, focusing on updates such as paint, furniture and enhanced technology.

Justification: The classroom utilization study identified 222 instructional spaces with capacities ranging from 2 to 225 student stations across 16 buildings. Classroom utilization is at 27.3%, below the target range of 60鈥�70% (CC-3). Occupancy rates are similarly low at 37.4%, while the target rate of 60% is desirable.

An interdepartmental committee should be formed to address the following key tasks:

• Continue prioritizing accessibility improvements as part of all campus facility investments.
