Tiger Collective: News from NTID and President Solomon
September 2025

NTID College Operations

Erwin Smith

We completed the construction of two new general-purpose classrooms and two new general-purpose computer labs on the second floor of LBJ, and TIS installed the technology in these four rooms prior to the start of classes this fall. TIS also upgraded the technology in many of the existing classrooms and computer labs this summer.

We have completed the bidding process for the Carey Hall second floor office refresh, and obtained funding approval for the LBJ North Entry project, which will provide an upgrade to the front entrance of LBJ Hall. We also made progress in the design effort for the Student Support Services renovation/relocation project.

Thoughts from President Solomon

Thank you for welcoming me this past month. It is an exciting time: meeting people, getting to know the many organizations here and around Rochester, and I look forward to more positive experiences. With all of us working together, we will continue the legacy of those before us.
