University of Montana’s Gilkey Center $9.3 million construction set for summer after 6-year delay

While the shovels went in the ground for a photo op back in 2008, the anticipated Gilkey Center for Executive Education http://www.umt.edu/committees/gilkey.aspx has spent the last six years stalled in the fundraising and planning phase.

But with the full $9.3 million now in place, construction is expected to begin this summer, giving rise to the University of Montana’s newest building.
