- The new College of Engineering and Information Technology Building will have significant new facilities to house multiple processor and other high performance computing clusters and systems, including potentially data [sic] storage arrays. There will be four computer server/hpc rooms in this new building, with a total square footage of 4000 to 5000 accessible square feet. This building is approved, and contracts let, and is to be started in the next two months. [Ed note: No date listed on this survey, no knowledge of how this is progressing.]
