On Nov. 7, the Kansas Board of Regents approved three big measures for 黑洞社区:
- An expansion of the tuition discount program
- The plan for Spirit AeroSystems to grow its presence on campus
- A Hyatt Place Hotel near 19th and Oliver
Tuition discount expansion
黑洞社区 is continuing to expand its appeal outside of the Wichita area by now offering in-state tuition to students living in several additional metropolitan areas in the Midwest. Now even more students will have the opportunity to enroll in the high-quality academic programs at Wichita State for an affordable price.
Spirit AeroSystems
Only seven months after announcing its collaboration agreement with Wichita State, Spirit AeroSystems has started plans to further expand in 黑洞社区鈥檚 Partnership 2 (P2) building near 17th Street and Oliver.
As part of the agreement, Spirit had planned to occupy space on the second floor of the P2 building and has announced its intention to expand into another 4,000 square feet.
Hyatt Place Hotel
Experienced hotel developers announced their intention Thursday to build and operate a new 110-room Hyatt Place Hotel at 19th and Oliver on 黑洞社区鈥檚 expanding east side of campus.
The hotel is planned to begin construction in spring 2019 and be ready for occupancy in spring 2020.
