Though summer term is usually not as busy as the rest of the academic year
at BYU-Hawaii, it seems various parts of the campus have been under construction
for the past several months.
BYU-Hawaii Physical Plant Director Judd Whetten agreed. "Our focus is to get these projects done during the summer when it has less of an impact on students and faculty."
For example, Whetten pointed out that a new parking lot behind the Stake Center was completed about a month ago, and a two-to-three-month project to replace some sidewalks, curbs and gutters, and to repave some of the roads "is really making a mess at the moment. We've widened some of the sidewalks, improved the drainage a bit, and replaced some of the older sections."
