Communications Facility Data Center

July 01, 2026 - June 15, 2027

The Data Center Relocation project will move WWU's data center from the Academic Center to Communications Facility on the main campus. The relocation will provide more robust telecom infrastructure for campus and an emergency generator to back up all systems reducing future interruptions. The Academic Instructional Clinics parking lot will remain closed through mid-September, 2026. Work will continue through summer of 2027.
