Summary
UNL’s bold plan to demolish the 70-year-old Selleck Quadrangle and replace it with a sprawling, modern dorm complex—offering nearly 2,000 beds across half a million square feet—isn’t about housing shortages, but a campus-wide refresh. With over $85 million in needed repairs, the university is funding the project entirely outside of student tuition, ensuring future students get top-tier, centrally located living spaces near classrooms, the student union, and the stadium. Students are thrilled the bill won’t hit their wallets. Construction won’t begin until 2028, with the first phase ready for move-in by August 2030—while current operations continue uninterrupted. This ambitious upgrade aims to set a new standard for student life, all without raising tuition. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
