Groundbreaking for CITRIS Headquarters on Friday

The campus will be getting a new building called Davis Hall North, located in between Davis Hall South (the current Davis Hall) and the Naval Architecture Building (over on this part of campus). Scheduled to be completed in 2007, the new hall will contain classrooms, labs, as well as house the headquarters of the Center for Information Technology Research in the Interest of Society, or CITRIS. CITRIS is a partnership by UC Berkeley, Davis, Merced, and Santa Cruz for researching information technology for use in solving problems like traffic, pollution, health care, and more. Groundbreaking begins at 2 PM. The College of Engineering has more information on the events. Email This Post!
