The $40 million building, opening six months ahead of schedule, is the first step in a long-range plan to modernize facilities in the academic core of the campus. The project was paid for in part by $30 million from the “Building Our Future” Bond Act.
Lt. Gov. Kim Guadagno, along more than 300 state and local officials and members of the William Paterson University, attended the grand opening of the new 80,000-square-foot academic building.
“University Hall, with its important mix of general-use classrooms and dedicated laboratories and clinical spaces for our programs in nursing, communication disorders, and public health, will provide a wonderful new academic building in the center of our campus that will serve all our students while also advancing our role as a top provider of health sciences education in New Jersey,” said Kathleen Waldron, president of William Paterson University. “This new academic building represents a significant step as we seek to revitalize the main instructional facilities on our campus and provide our faculty and students with state-of-the-art teaching, clinica and research spaces.”
