I love working for a university that is undergoing such rapid change to embrace the needs of a modern, 21st-century campus. With these latest construction projects, just as part of the Hoff Quad, the university is expanding its available floor space by nearly 30%. The new dormitory and dining complex, which is not part of the Hoff Quad, is bigger than the Hoff Quad buildings combined.
We begin yesterday's tour of the Hoff Quad in the Conaton Learning Commons' computing lab on level 2, which we accessed via the library. The Learning Commons' will feature a 200-seat auditorium, the Center for Teaching Excellence, the Center for Student Excellence, the Conway Institute for Jesuit Education, academic labs, technology-driven classroom, study rooms, a student computing lab, technology training room, digital media lab and more.
The lobby -- Magis Plaza -- for the Conaton Learning Commons is very impressive, with rich wood accents on the ceiling and nice flooring accents.
This connects to the library.
This is a specialized classroom that will feature a one-way window for observers to peer into the class.
Performance space within the distinctive tower provides space for student, faculty and community art displays and presentations.
