SU Breaks Ground on New Perdue School Building

Before a celebratory audience, Salisbury University President Janet Dudley-Eshbach, members of the Perdue family and other dignitaries, including University System of Maryland Chancellor William E. “Brit” Kirwan, broke ground on Salisbury University’s new Franklin P. Perdue School of Business building on Tuesday, September 29. The $56 million, three-story building will include such distinctive features as a Business Outreach Services Suite (BOSS), which will become home to the Perdue School’s outreach programs, and a Perdue Museum spotlighting area businesses and archives from Perdue Incorporated. The 112,800-square-foot building is scheduled to open in fall 2011.
