Renovation of the Student Union Building began in January of 2001. The $25 million project was intended to modernize and expand the building, which was originally completed in 1959. According to the UNM facility planning Web site, the SUB project will add 8,000 square-feet of new space on the northwest corner of the existing building for a total of 155,000 square feet. Some perks of the new SUB will be study lounges, a renovated theater, convenience store, coffee shop and computer lab. It also will house all student services and organizations. The SUB renovation project is scheduled to be completed in December.
