A Sea of Red has learned that the South End Zone locker room building at Williams Stadium will be demolished prior to the 2017 Commencement.  The area will be utilized for temporary seating at graduation, where President Donald J. Trump will be the keynote speaker.  Immediately following the May graduation, construction will begin on a new Visitor’s locker room in the South End Zone.
