LIGHT IT BLUE Bellevue University participated in the “Light It Blue” campaign in April to show support and gratitude for healthcare workers, first responders and other essential workers. The John B. Muller Administrative Services Building, 812 Bruin Blvd., was illuminated in bright blue lights April 13-30. The building’s exterior lights are typically lit purple as a representation of the Bellevue University brand. The #LightItBlue campaign was a nationwide effort to show support for essential workers during the COVID-19 pandemic. “Bellevue University joined many other organizations across the country in showing support for healthcare professionals and first responders by coloring our Administrative Services Building blue,” Becky Frerck, Assistant Creative Director of Creative Services at Bellevue University, said. “We recognize that in addition to the heroes working the front lines, there are many others working tirelessly to keep our community and our country running. We acknowledge and appreciate their service and sacrifice, as well.”
LOZIER PROFESSIONAL CENTER RENOVATIONS “The recent renovations and updates to our Lozier Professional Center make it an ideal space for corporate meetings, training events and gatherings for small and mid-size groups,” said Lisa Cuevas-Jorgensen, Senior Director for Community Initiatives. Renovations in the 22,000 square foot building include updated technology that allows audiences across distances to connect, revamped meeting rooms and classroom space that can accommodate up to 64 attendees, remodeled common areas for small groups and networking events, and more. This also includes a new art piece, located near the entryway and titled “Starburst,” by alumnus Carl Weiss of Weiss Studios. “We look forward to continuing to support our students, the community, our partners, and organizations in the metro area through our west Omaha campus,” said Cuevas-Jorgensen.
