In anticipation of the ASUU Rail Jam event on Nov. 7, construction on the temporary ski structure began on Sunday, Nov. 2, with scaffolding build-out starting to the east of the Block U and will continue throughout the week.

The campus community can expect some vehicles on campus sidewalks between 100 South and the large Block U (just east of the Campus Store) during the week of Nov. 2-7.

Snow production will begin on Friday, Nov. 7, at noon. Those near the Student Union should expect loud noise from mid-morning to early afternoon and should plan accordingly if possible.

Pedestrian traffic will remain open for all main campus walkways until noon on Friday, Nov. 7, when security personnel will instruct pedestrians to walk around the event venue. At that time the fencing now in place will close and security sweep will then take place. Doors will reopen for the event at 4 p.m.
