ES & SEAS Topping Off
The ES & Commons celebrated a major milestone as the last piece of structural steel and timber were lowered into place on October 26, 2023. Project stakeholders were on site to sign the beam and cheer on its placement.

With over 800 employees, Facilities is the largest administrative group on campus and always looking for exceptional candidates.
Experience Our Culture
We are a large organization, with many opportunities, and our Culture of Inclusion Committee helps foster an inclusive work environment where everyone, from any background and all dimensions of diversity, feels respected, comfortable to be their authentic selves, and encouraged to do their best work. Meeting our Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) goals and creating opportunities for all Facilities staff to connect and feel a sense of belonging continues to be a priority for Facilities. Staff members are encouraged to participate in a DEI training activity each year.
