They’re tearing it up at Sul Ross, and many in the community are wondering what’s going on. Mike Pacheco, chief of staff to university President Pete Gallego, explained the demolition underway near the Wildenthal Library and the Briscoe Administration Building was simply moving forward with Phases II and III of the Campus Access Project as set forth in the 2011 Master Plan. At the time the plan was finalized, a committee of faculty and staff wanted to create what Pacheco called “a larger front yard for the university.” This phase also includes a campus perimeter exercise trail, allowing students and residents to exercise while interacting with the new landscape zones. the trail will extend around the entire campus perimeter, sharing space with multi-use sidewalks where there isn’t sufficient space for a dedicated exercise trail.
