FULLERTON : Cal State to Unveil Center Expansion
- Share via
Cal State Fullerton students today will formally unveil their newly expanded University Center, which has nearly doubled in size as part of a $10.1-million construction project.
An 11 a.m. ribbon-cutting ceremony with university President Milton A. Gordon will be followed by a week’s worth of special activities and performances--all free--aimed at acquainting people with the new wings added as part of the 22-month construction project.
The project was entirely funded with student fees, which were increased by a vote of Cal State Fullerton students in 1987 in order to fund the expansion.
At noon today, the university’s highly regarded jazz ensemble will play through the noon hour in the new Courtyard area of the center. On Tuesday at 8 p.m., punk and New Wave music producer Ian Copeland will appear in the center’s Titan Theater. Wednesday’s activities will include a five-hour Monopoly tournament beginning at 2 p.m.
Among featured performers Thursday will be a group of comedians from Northwestern University in the Becker Amphitheater at noon. Friday’s events will include a table tennis tournament beginning at 2 p.m. and the screening of “An Angel at My Table,” a biographical film about a New Zealand writer’s eight years in a mental hospital after he was misdiagnosed as being schizophrenic.
