On Friday, June 9, the Nevada System of Higher Education Board of Regents voted to approve the first academic building in the Mathewson University Gateway project through a third-party development agreement with Edgemoor Infrastructure & Real Estate. This building will create a physical link between the University and downtown Reno, catalyzing growth in the Campus Gateway and strengthening the relationship between the University and the City of Reno.
