According to ISU’s Director of Communication, university officials recommend the Lincoln Quad housing complex be decommissioned and taken off line by the end of Spring Semester 2020.
The complex was constructed in 1969, contains 768 beds and has housed students for 50 years.
Officials explained that the upkeep of the building has become a challenge and systems need to be replaced.
The Board of Trustees will vote on the measures on Friday October 11 and funding for the project will come from housing reserve funds.
