Indiana University South Bend applied for and received a grant through MACOG (The Michiana Area Council of Governments) to complete a multi-use pedestrian/bike trail on the campus. The Trail is currently under construction through the Indiana Department of Transportation with participation from the University.
The trail will start at the corner of Titan Street and Ironwood and will run along the river to the west to end at 1720 Lincoln Way. Construction is scheduled to be completed in September 2009.

The Administration Building on Mishawaka Avenue is undergoing a second round of renovations. The East and West wings on the second floor will be undergoing some much needed improvements to add space and to update the look of the building. Human Resources, Payroll, Accounts Payable, Accounting, Purchasing, Administrative and Fiscal Affairs, Academic Affairs, Public Affairs, Institutional Research, Affirmative Action, Communications, and the Chancellor's Office will all have nice new offices/work spaces. Construction is scheduled to be completed by March 2010.
