The new South Campus Union will feature both a climbing wall and bike station, as voted Monday by the project’s design committee.

Dan Cornelius, incoming vice president for project management, said there was overwhelming support for the climbing wall in a campus-wide survey.

“There were almost 10,000 respondents,” said Jan van den Kieboom, chief architect of the new union, adding the survey consultants have never had that level of response from any college campus in the country. “I think it really speaks volumes about the campus in Madison and how much people really care about what’s going on.”

Van den Kieboom said the design committee hopes to know all features of the building by the end of the semester.

Cornelius said the best time for students to get involved is within the next month as bigger features in the building are decided.

“It’s a great opportunity for students to have a voice in something that will be affecting the campus community for a long time to come,” he said.
