the start of the 2021-22 academic year. One building has been designated as the U-Tel, which started welcoming guests at the end of 2022. While the North Campus will eventually be home to some 20-40 new buildings, over the next decade we will concentrate on the construction of the Diane and Guilford Glazer Foundation Future Technologies Building , the Drahi Innovation and Entrepreneurship Building , the Helmsley Computer Science Building , the Civil and Environmental Engineering Building , the Cultural and Conference Center , and the Infrastructure Center . A brief introduction to several of the buildings planned for this first phase of North Campus development is provided below. Since October 7, construction costs in Israel have skyrocketed, and the donor funding designated for named buildings now covers only a portion of their construction costs. While partial government funding has been allocated to the construction of some of

the buildings, it doesn’t cover the shortfall. Therefore, there is a need to enlist donor support to name the Civil and Environmental Engineering Building and the Infrastructure Center and utilize the many other naming opportunities in each building on the North Campus. In the academic buildings, these opportunities include teaching and research laboratories, offices, floors, lobbies, classrooms, seminar and conference rooms, and auditoriums. At the Student Village , the entire complex, as well as individual apartments, floors, dormitory buildings, and lobbies can be named. These myriad naming opportunities on the North Campus would appeal to donors with a gift capacity of $50,000 or more . The Diane and Guilford Glazer Foundation Future Technologies Building This building will house our most advanced quantum, robotics, and remote sensing laboratories, and these labs will explore and develop the technologies of the future. The labs’ researchers will find answers to technological problems that are yet unforeseen, as they experiment 6
