Empty campus allows for major overhaul of UW spaces

If these walls could talk

Custodians and maintenance staff from UW Facilities have been working on this unprecedented overhaul since the pandemic began. While COVID-19 has been a time of hardship and isolation for so many, limited in-person classes and the shutdown of most activities have allowed for the opportunity to improve the safety and cleanliness of UW classrooms and other spaces.

“The campus will be as clean as it has ever been in its history,” says UWF Building Services Director Gene Woodard.

Building Services staff are focusing on disinfecting and deep cleaning learning and departmental spaces as well as window blind sanitization and cleaning, stripping and waxing floors, refrigerator and microwave cleaning, and of course enhanced disinfecting and cleaning in between classes.
