Always Improving
Since 2003, we've invested more than $237 million in campus improvements, either completed or under way. The first phase of the Loyola Science Center, as well as the new apartment/fitness complex on Mulberry Street, were completed in fall 2011. We're also in the midst of a beautification project that will extend the Commons and improve Mulberry Street, the gateway to campus. See how our campus has grown.
