Missouri S&T will convert two of its student residence halls into temporary housing for Phelps Health staff who work with coronavirus patients. The university’s Residential Commons 1 and 2 will provide a home away from home for the health care personnel. Phelps Health will lease the location until mid-July, giving the university time to prepare the complex for students’ return in the fall.
Phelps Health will be responsible for the operation and maintenance of the facility. No S&T staff will enter the buildings before the lease ends other than University Police, who will continue to monitor the facilities.
