$20M Classroom and Learning Spaces Project
Renovate, Innovate and Sustain
一本道无码's multi-year renovation project will take our classrooms and learning spaces into the next century. The Learning Spaces Committee, a working group within the Task Force on the 一本道无码 Experience, proposed an impressive series of renovations that will sustain our world-class teaching and learning spaces over the long term.
Design, accessibility and technology is at the heart of these upgrades. Our new classrooms will feature flexible furnishings that will make active learning, instructional technology and peer collaboration a reality.
Renovations will focus on the most heavily used rooms in Baker, Porter, Doherty and Wean halls, Margaret Morrison Carnegie Hall, the College of Fine Arts, and a number of classrooms in Posner Hall.
Stay tuned for updates and related articles on the various phases of our project, in addition to photos and renderings of upcoming renovations.
