KSU Facilities Grounds and Landscape Services display the famed purple and white in many of their planting beds and have always taken pride in our KSU Landscape.  We’ve had a busy spring getting ready for Open House by cleaning up beds, spraying for weeds, trimming shrubs and trees, and mowing and starting up irrigation systems.

Graduation is only weeks away, we will continue planting flowers and prepare for the Graduates’ special day, which is a great reason for pictures! Most of the flowers that we plant on campus are raised by the Horticulture classes.

The Facilities Customer Service Center has been operational for nine months.  During that time, we have created approximately 16,000 work orders from service requests received from departments.  One of the most common questions we get asked is, “do we have to pay for this?”

First, be assured, when it comes to issues such as reporting a light being out or any other safety concern, please call the Facilities Service Center at 532-6389 and submit a service request.  Any issue that is safety related is more than likely the responsibility of Facilities to repair or maintain and represents no expense to a department.

From Roberta Johnson in Hale Library:

I just want to thank all of those involved from Custodial and Security that assisted with the incident in the Library on Saturday, regarding a man who had been assaulted elsewhere and had ended up at Hale.

Our staff greatly appreciate the prompt assistance, both to the individual and to the library building and furnishings.   Everyone who was involved has spoken highly of yourselves and staff for getting assistance and taking care of the gentleman.

Thanks for all you do every day here at Hale – but especially for the extra effort on Saturday.

From Loleta Sump in Special Events:

April was a busy month for special events.  Two of the events required substantial support from our facilities teams, All University Open House and the UPC PROUD concert featuring Dustin Lynch.  A great big shout out to the following teams:  Moving and Hauling, Teams 1 and 3, Landscaping, Custodial, Construction, Storeroom, and any others that I did not mention.  Truly, these large events are a team effort and I appreciate each and every one of you for helping them be successful!  Thank you!

Welcome to the Facilities Team!
