a World AIDS Day initiative, will be held Dec. 1 at the Palmer Museum
of Art at University Park. As it did last year, shown above, the museum

lost and affected by AIDS. The museum also will exhibit "The Geldzahler
Portfolio" for the event. For information about the exhibit, check the

The building will straddle U.S. Business Route 322 and bring together under one roof both IST and the Department of Computer Science and Engineering. The project is expected to be completed in late 2003. Below, work has been progressing on the installation of underground utilities for the new life sciences building, to be built between Eisenhower Auditorium and Thomas Building on the campus. Construction is expected to be completed by mid-2003. Photos: Greg Grieco |
