Misericordia University breaks ground for Frank M. and Dorothea
Henry Science Center
Misericordia University recently broke
ground on the new $45 million, 85,900
square-foot Frank M. and Dorothea Henry
Science Center, the largest academic
building on the more than 124-acre
campus.
The comprehensive Henry Science Center
features a deliberate mix of classroom space, technology, and teaching and
research laboratories. Its concept began in 2016 when the Misericordia University
Board of Trustees committed to the multi-year project to expand learning and
research opportunities for students and faculty. Built in 1957 and renovated in 1988,
the existing building was designed to accommodate 800 students on a campus
now serving close to 3,000 students.
The groundbreaking ceremony marked the beginning of construction on the new
three-story 57,400-square-foot wing, which will take about 18 months to complete.
Renovation of the existing 28,500-square-foot science hall will commence in June
2020, with completion of the entire Henry Science Center ready for the beginning
of the fall 2021 semester.
Hospice of the Sacred Heart
recently received a $2,000
grant from the Scranton Area
Community Foundation to
support its Lunch & Learn
program. The monthly series
is a free information session
accompanied by lunch and is
held at the Hospice of the Sacred
Heart Center for Education in
Moosic.
