The University of Sint Eustatius School of Medicine is pleased to announce the formation of a Campus Development Committee created to foster communication and ideas regarding future development plans for the University’s 23.5 acre island campus.
The Committee will consist of members of USESOM staff, faculty, and students, as well as community and local government representatives.
The first phase of campus development will be the construction of a stylish, multi-building dormitory community, which will be home to students during their initial terms on Statia. It is anticipated that the first 50 rooms will be ready during the Fall 2012 term, with the remaining units completed by year’s end. In addition to the new dorms, a number of recreational facilities will make up the new residential component of Sint Eustatius, including a spectacular swimming pool setting and basketball courts, making this an integral part of campus life.
We’re genuinely excited about the design elements of the new campus dormitories and associated facilities, – says university President, Dr. Len Wisneski, – and look forward to the impact the new development will have on our students and the University in general.
