Summary: Facilities Planning & Management (FP&M), under the direction of the Vice President of Administrative Affairs, is coordinating a campus-wide cleanup effort during the spring semester, dubbed Campus Cleanup. The initiative is part of a broader effort to maximize the use of existing spaces in campus buildings.
Reason for initiative: Unused items, including but not limited to furniture, document files and equipment, have been accumulating in buildings over the years. This accumulation is not limited to designated storage spaces but includes areas such as offices, meeting rooms, and educational facilities. The limited resources available for capital improvements places a greater importance on the efficient use of existing educational and administrative spaces throughout the campus.
Benefits to the campus: The elimination of unused materials from buildings will free up more space for core educational and administrative needs such as classrooms, teaching labs, and offices for faculty and staff. This will allow departments to improve the use of space and reduce the need for the assignment or construction of additional space to support existing and/or future programs.
Next steps: FP&M staff is meeting with departments across the university, and a dry run will be undertaken at the College of Letters, Arts and Social Sciences (Building 5) in early February. An electronic intake form for the cleanup process will be posted on the FP&M website in mid-February that can be used by staff to identify any items to be removed or disposed of. Further information will be distributed as the initiative rolls out.
