5.1 DEVELOPMENT PHASING<br />
The campus plan provides a<br />
roadmap that will guide campus<br />
growth during the next phases of<br />
development, investment, and<br />
growth.<br />
Future campus modifications are inevitable, but<br />
should align with the principles and framework<br />
established in this plan. Goals that influenced the<br />
phasing plans include creating a sense of completion<br />
at each phase of development; building compactly<br />
to reduce infrastructure costs and promote student<br />
engagement; prioritizing surface parking over<br />
structured parking in the early phases; and locating<br />
surface parking in permanent locations to the extent<br />
possible. As the campus continues to grow over<br />
time, phasing as described in this section may vary<br />
depending on funding, changing campus needs, and<br />
partnership opportunities.<br />
During the planning process, several projects have<br />
been implemented and are included in the campus<br />
plan. These projects include:<br />
• Runyon Creek Trail<br />
• Secondary entrance off Camp Wisdom Road<br />
• Secondary entrance from University Hills<br />
Boulevard<br />
• Student center, central open space, and the<br />
Hart Amphitheater<br />
The COVID-19 pandemic may also result in<br />
fundamental long-term changes in higher education<br />
delivery. More students may choose online and hybrid<br />
classes, and some faculty and staff may choose to<br />
work remotely. This may impact the need for space on<br />
campus, as well as the types of spaces needed.<br />
