When students return to Central College this month, many will notice some big changes to campus.

President Mark Putnam says they are almost finished with the addition of an outdoor patio at the Maytag Center. Putnam says that upgrades to the entry way at the Schipper football stadium will be ready for the first home game of the season this fall.

He adds a few buildings were torn down at the site of the organic garden after classes concluded, and have been replaced with space for more planting.
