(July 24, 2008)--The Subway restaurant in the University Center on the 1604 Campus will close Saturday, July 26 in order to move to the new University Center expansion, or UCIII. If construction goes as planned, the relocation across the sidewalk should be complete in time for a Monday, Aug. 11 opening. The entire UCIII is scheduled to open at the start of the fall semester.

Proposed hours for the new Subway are 10 a.m.-9 p.m., Monday-Thursday; 10 a.m.-6 p.m., Friday; closed Saturday and Sunday.
