Wisconsin’s future educators will have a significantly upgraded home to earn their teaching licenses thanks to an upcoming renovation project at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater.
Executive Director of Marketing and Communications Jeff Angileri says work on Winther Hall will resolve space and building infrastructure deficiencies, improve instructional and departmental spaces, and increase technology capabilities.
Work on neighboring Heide Hall will include new elevators, a new roof, and new window and doors.
The renovations are being supported by nearly $78.5 million in state funds approved by the legislature in February and signed by Governor Evers this week.
Construction is expected to start in late 2025 on Heide Hall first before switching over to Winther Hall. Construction is estimated to be complete in late 2028 for both buildings.
