Science Hall Renovations Underway
It’s been 76 years since a major renovation happened inside the Science Hall building at WVU Potomac State College. Now, the Phase One renovations of one of the College's most iconic buildings are well underway.
“Science Hall for years was in a lot of developmental purgatory,” said Micah Pears, director of facilities at PSC. “But now that is all coming to an end, and hopefully people can see the light at the end of the tunnel.”
That “light” to which he refers is the first phase of an ambitious project at Science Hall – a project that seeks to bring the building, the equipment, the faculty, and staff into a new, modern, advanced age of science, chemistry, biology, and technology.
Curtains getting ready to rise again at Church-McKee
Please note: Since the initial release of this article, the new curtains are now installed in the Church-McKee Arts Center.
After being shuttered for eight months, the curtains will rise again at the Church-McKee Arts Center on the campus of WVU Potomac State College. Phase One of an ambitious and comprehensive renovation was completed this week.
The Center will host its first public performance of the academic year on April 8 in a grand re-opening. It’s an occasion Brian Plitnik, associate professor of music and producer of PSC Theater, is nearly giddy about.
“For the first time in maybe 30 years – or at least as long as I can remember – there has not been a spring musical at Church-McKee,” Plitnik said, during a tour of the theater last week with renovations still underway. “But this week, the curtains get hung, and that will be the final phase on stage one, and we can get the theatre back open for productions.”
