"Topping Off" Ceremony
Wednesday, February 28, 2007



CNR President Stephen J. Sweeny, along with representatives from the College’s Board of Trustees, ikon5 Architects, Andron Construction, and members of the College Community gathered on a sunny winter morning to celebrate the "Topping Off" of CNR’s Wellness Center. The "Topping Off" Ceremony is a construction industry tradition held to commemorate a milestone in the construction of a building -- the placement of the highest steel beam. Before the white “topping off” beam was lifted high into place it was ceremonially signed by President Sweeny, Chairman of the Board of Trustees Michael N. Ambler, Vice Presidents of the College, Deans, representatives of all the City Campuses, various college groups, the Ursuline Community, and student leaders of CNR.  Following the ceremony, lunch was served for the College Community and guests at the Student Campus Center.
