From BleckleyProgress.com Community News Middle Georgia State University held a grand re-opening Tuesday for Dillard Hall and Roberts Memorial Library, both located on the Cochran campus. Renovations to both buildings cost $1.2 million and was part of $11 million in project-based bond funding given to MGA by the Georgia General Assembly in 2020.
Dillard Hall was built in 1958. A small addition was added on in 1965. It now hosts the Occupational Therapy and Nursing programs.
Renovations to the building include a new roof, updated HVAC, electrical and plumbing, a 20-bed nursing lab, updated OTA labs, computer labs, regular classrooms, student study spaces, offices, and a conference room.
Roberts Library was built in 1965. An addition was made in the mid 70’s, but there’ve been few updates since. It now houses the School of Computing’s Department of Information Technology on the first floor.
The library is housed on the second and third floors. Significant changes to the building include the communicating stairs between the second and third floors, improved ADA access, and the addition of a coffee shop.
