Aurora University – Kimberly and James Hill Center for Student Success
Boldt has partnered with Illinois Aurora University many times over the years, completing a variety of projects both large and small. One such project is the new Kimberly and James Hill Center for Student Success, home to the university’s careers services and alumni relations departments. The construction of the new center allows the university to expand these departments while providing students with an inspiring place to focus on their future career goals.
Totaling approximately 7,000 SF, the new single-story center comprises a reception and lounge area, large group room, offices for the Department of Alumni Relations, activity room, service kitchen and exterior patio. The building’s construction is structural steel, metal studs and slab-on-grade.
