Here’s a web cam shot taken this afternoon at the construction site of UH Hilo’s new Student Life Center. At the forefront here is the Olympic-size swimming pool. Located at the athletics complex, facilities also will provide students with a wide range of health, fitness and recreational activities including exercise and weight rooms, classrooms and a café.

New director of the center Tim Moore took the helm in June.

“UH Hilo’s commitment to becoming a premier residential campus is evident with the construction of the new Student Life Center,” he says. “I’m honored to have been selected for this position, and look forward to fulfilling the center’s vision of creating a comprehensive and thriving recreation program that will become the focal point of an involved and connected campus community.”
