Over the past 20 years, The Clarks’ recordings have sold nearly a quarter of a million copies, and the band has played all over the world, including on “Late Night with David Letterman.” The Clarks have been very good to the university over the years, including raising $25,000 in a benefit concert for a recording studio in Cogswell Hall. They will be in concert both Friday and Saturday evening at

the Indiana Theater. The university is also very proud of the student-organized Monte Carlo Night, now in its third year, sponsored by the Center for Student Life. The event continues to grow in popularity and attendance. Weekend events will conclude with the annual Homecoming concert, “A New Beginning,” on Sunday at 3 p.m. in the IUP Performing Arts Center’s Fisher Auditorium. IUP is fiercely proud of its alumni, its history, its traditions and its home community. We look forward to celebrating with you this weekend. Sincerely,

New dining hall’s focus on being green INDIANA — The dining hall was originally dedicated on a homecoming weekend in 1972. Forty-three years later, “Ma Folger” would undoubtedly be proud of the “new” dining hall named in her honor. Indiana University of Pennsylvania will officially “cut the ribbon” to celebrate the newly renovated Folger Dining Hall at 11 a.m. Friday. The ribbon cutting is open to the community. Folger Dining Hall is located on Pratt drive, across from the Suites on Maple East. The hall is named in honor of the late Olive K. Folger, affectionately known as “Ma Folger” by a generation of students. She was the dietitian at Indiana State Teachers College from 1934 until her retirement in 1958. The building was dedicated at homecoming weekend on Oct. 27, 1972. Folger earned her Bachelor of Science degree in home economics from IUP (then Indiana State Teachers College) in 1948 and she was a member of Kappa Omicron Phi. This renovated facility is Phase II of IUP’s $37 million dining master plan, IUP Dining Innovations. The $13.75 million renovation project began in May 2014. Folger Dining Hall is designed to create specialized

soda bottles. The 120 table bases are 99 percent consumer waste, fabricated from recycled cast-iron automobile engine parts. At the end of their life, they are 100 percent recyclable. The wood table tops are Forest Stewardship Council certified, coming from responsibly managed forests evaluated to meet the council’s strict environmental and social standards. The ash and elm planks on the wall are sourced from agricultural structures and are 100 percent post-consumer recycled. The resin

The chairs — a total of 239 of them — are made from 26,529 recycled plastic

panels are 40 percent preconsumer recycled content. Folger is IUP’s first dining facility to use LED fixtures throughout the facility. The average energy reduction from fluorescent to LED is 35 percent. Occupancy sensors are used to dim the LEDs when required light levels are met with natural light. High—efficiency plumbing fixtures also are used in the building. The building’s mechanical systems also are designed as energy efficient. For example, exhaust hoods in the Continued on Page 8

Folger ribbon-cutting set for this weekend Continued from Page 3 kitchen and server areas run at full capacity during high use times; after prime dining hours, they run at low capacity. There is demandcontrolled ventilation in the high-density areas of the building, which means that after hours, air conditioning slows down to save energy. Air conditioning and heating are reset based on outdoor air temperature as well. Phase I of the project, The Crimson Café, is located on 11th Street across from Sprowls Hall and adjacent to the IUP Performing Arts Center. Opened in August 2014, this $6.5 million, 400-seat retail dining facility includes a Starbucks, the Crimson Bistro, Burger Studio and the Fireplace, plus a selection of grab-and-go items, including soup, salads, wraps and hot meals. Dining Innovations concludes with Phase III, North Dining: A Destination, to be

completed for the 20172018 academic year. Dining revenues fund the renovation and construction of the three facilities that are part of the Dining Innovations Plan. The IUP Council of Trustees approved the $37 million campus dining master plan in December 2011. The development of that plan by Desmone & Associates Architects, of Pittsburgh, and Envision Strategies, based in Colorado, was approved in 2010 and included extensive study, focus groups and surveys of students. Some of the findings used to develop the campus dining master plan were as follows: • An estimated 15 percent growth in campus meal plan participation to 7,000 students • A need for new venues for students, with greater menu variety and an “allyou-care-to-eat” format • A need for facilities more

convenient from all areas of campus • High demand for facilities with more intimate dining settings The North Dining Commons, Phase III of the plan, will be located adjacent to Wallwork Hall in the footprint of what is now Keith Hall. It will have 450 seats and an “all you care to eat” format. The North Dining Commons project will begin after the completion of the new humanities building, scheduled for January 2016, and the demolition of Keith Hall. Keith Hall will be replaced by the new humanities building. The architects and planners determined that Foster Dining Hall, located at Grant and 11th streets and built in 1966, required renovations so extensive that it would not be cost effective to continue operations there. How the land Foster occupies will be used has not yet been determined.

The Clarks to perform during festivities Indiana University of Pennsylvania alumni and musicians The Clarks will perform this weekend in Indiana alongside Homecoming 2015 festivities. The Clarks — with members Greg Joseph, ’85; Robert James Hertwick, ’87; David Minarik, ’88; and Scott Blasey, ’87 — will perform at 7 p.m. Friday and Saturday at The Indiana Theater on Philadelphia Street. The Clarks, an American rock band, formed in 1985 when its members were students at IUP. The members of the group — who received a university Distinguished Alumni Award for their accomplishments — are the namesake of the Clarks Recording Studio in Cogswell Hall on the IUP campus. The studio allows university ensembles, groups and individual students to record performances or rehearsals for students, for application to graduate programs or competitions and for other users. It was dedicated in 2007. Tickets are available for both of The Clarks’ shows at the Artists Hand Gallery on Philadelphia Street for $24.
