Project Overview

This 60,000-square-foot, three-story building provides a gathering place for students and focused activities.

Constructed within an aggressive 14-month schedule, the Student Center provides a full kitchen with hoods, freezers and coolers; dining commons with a fireplace; a 240-seat forum; conference and meeting spaces; and radio and TV station facilities complete with a sound and control room. A new pedestrian bridge was also constructed to connect the new student center to the existing CAMP classroom and laboratory space, forming a new two-story façade for the building. New high-efficiency boilers service the student center and adjacent building.
