Student Body Approves Upgrades At St. Denis Centre

The University of Windsor Student Alliance says its members have passed a referendum approving of $73-million in upgrades at the St. Denis Centre.

The vote was whether to approve an increase in student fees to pay for the project.

This week's referendum was the second referendum on the matter. A vote in 2015 was also in favour.

The final tally was 2510 to 1391 or 64% in favour.

Last fall, the Graduate Student Society also held its second referendum on the upgrades. That vote, along with a previous one approved the project.

University President Alan Wildeman has said construction on the project could start in 2018.
