Buzzing news for Jackson State students: the university is moving ahead with a $47.3 million plan to build a new housing complex that features a 650-seat dining hall and a conference center.
“We want to build what we expect our needs will be three years down the road,” JSU President Carolyn Meyers said, adding that the number of the 628 beds may be raised during the design phase to meet the enrollment growth she anticipates.
The million dollar housing complex approved by the college board is expected to be finished by January 2016.
