the new CHBS (College of Humanities and Behavioral Sciences) Building opened its doors. As of 2016, nearly all dorms at Radford have been renovated. Renovations are currently ongoing for several buildings on campus. Radford is located on exits 105 and 109 of Interstate 81, with accessibility to nearby I-77.
Bordering the Little River, and about five miles from campus, is the Selu Conservancy, a 376-acre (1.52 km2) reserve, observatory, retreat, and conference center owned by the University Foundation.
Radford University is also home to the Radford University Planetarium, a permanent planetarium with a 55-seat theater (front facing) with a 10-meter dome, two central floor-mounted 2k projectors running the Digistar 7 planetarium software. The planetarium is primarily operated by work-study students and is maintained by the Physics Department. Shows run by the students and professors are free for attendees. Yearly attendance is approximately 6,000.
