Corby Hall is the on-campus residence and center of hospitality for the community of priests and brothers. A new Corby Hall, with a strong resemblance to the original, will be constructed in its place. The project was announced last fall.
-Starting today, June 4, the perimeter surrounding Corby Hall will be fenced off as a construction site. The project should be complete in the spring of 2020. (See map.) Here is what to expect in the meantime:

• The sidewalk south of the Grotto will be closed during construction. The steps on the south side of the Grotto will remain open.
• The portion of Corby Drive directly south and parallel to Corby Hall will be closed for the duration of the project. Vehicle access to the Basilica, Sorin, Walsh, Coleman-Morse, etc. will remain open.
• Holy Cross Drive, the road that frames campus from the south, west and north, will remain open unless utility work needs to take place at the intersection of Holy Cross and Corby drives. The campus community will be notified before scheduled work.

The DeBartolo Performing Arts Center Ticket Office will be closed from Sunday, June 3, through Sunday, July 8, and will resume normal business hours of noon to 6 p.m. Monday – Friday, on Monday, July 9. All phone and email messages requiring a response will be answered within three business days.

Sustainability Tip of the Week
Looking for ways to be sustainable and still beat the heat?  Make sure to drink plenty of water by carrying a reusable water bottle on campus.  It not only keeps you healthy and hydrated but it's also great for the environment.  Americans buy more than 29 million plastic water bottles each year but only 1 in 6 makes it to a recycling bin.  #GoIrish #BeGreen
