Building maintenance is a year-round task for UMSL staff

It would be easy to assume that staff members at the University of Missouri–St. Louis have a lot to do in preparation for the arrival of students in the fall. The truth is, they always have a lot to do, no matter what time of the year it happens to be.

Take, for example, Steve Bene, supervisor of Facilities Services for Residential Life at UMSL. He oversees a team of five workers – including himself – who tend to the maintenance needs of 11 buildings on and near the UMSL campus that serve as student housing.
