Wright State University-Lake Campus on Wednesday announced an $8 million renovation and expansion project, set in motion by a $2 million local contribution.

 

Campus officials held a luncheon with local donors to kick off a fundraising campaign. The construction project will include a new science wing and multipurpose center, in addition to extensive classroom renovations.

 

"What a wonderful day," Wright State University President Kim Goldenberg told the crowd. "This is an historic occasion for the Lake Campus."

Student dormitories could someday be available at Wright State University-Lake Campus, but as of yet, no firm plans are in place, the university's president said Thursday.

 

Kim Goldenberg, president of Wright State's main campus in Dayton, told a crowd gathered for the Lake Campus' annual community report that the housing issue has cropped up many times through the years.

 

"We've talked on and off through the year, but we haven't come to any firm conclusions at this point," Goldenberg said.

Campus close to goal     

 

ST. MARYS — The dream of updated facilities at the 34-year-old Wright State University Lake Campus is looking more realistic and in-reach as the campus is closer than ever to reaching it's $4 million goal in time to break ground on the project in the fall of 2007. "The response in the Auglaize and St. Marys area has been amazing," Thomas Knapke, assistant dean for development at Wright State University-Lake Campus, said. "We're about $20,000 short and we've got some commitments out there, so we're going to make it."

Wright State's Lake Campus received a generous donation from Jack Schenking, who presented the university a check for $100,000 in memory of his late wife, Kathy. The contribution will help the Lake Campus meet the $2 million challenge grant provided by the James F. Dicke Family.

 

The first Capital Campaign was launched in February 2006 in order to raise funds to renovate existing space and construct new science labs and a multipurpose center. "Our capital campaign has received tremendous support from our community and we are thrilled with the number of donors in our area," said Thomas Knapke, Assistant Dean for Development.
