Presentation Centre Now on Campus

Last week, a modular Presentation Centre arrived on campus. It's located on Victoria Lane across from the Library Building, and over the next 16 months it will be the hub of activity for everything we're going to do to develop the Master Plan. It will include a seminar, presentation and lecture space as well as some offices for those working on the Master Plan. There will be regularly scheduled opportunities for the community to visit the Presentation Centre.

I'm pleased to report that the Master Plan is moving forward quickly. This summer we issued a formal Request for Proposal (RFP) inviting submissions from professional design and planning teams. We hope to choose and announce the successful team by mid-October. This team will work closely with the Ryerson community and our neighbours to develop a blueprint for a revitalized campus for the next 20 years.

We've named the project "RU The Future: Ryerson's Master Plan," and developed a project logo and some graphic design which you'll see put up on the Presentation Centre over the next week or so. I promise to keep you posted on progress as the plan develops. There will be lots of opportunities for everyone in the Ryerson community to have input into the process, and I encourage everyone to participate.
