East Campus
New Construction
Some classrooms are getting their final finishes and adjustments just in time for students to experience! No two classrooms are exactly the same, creating a unique and dynamic experience for collaboration and flexibility for enhanced learning. The connection between the French Family Center and the new East Campus building continues to provide new landscape and walking path to tie the entire campus together. The large concrete learning stairs adjacent to the theater are almost finished. They will be a space unlike any other on campus for student use. The theater walls also begin to take shape.
West Campus
Renovations
The new Dining area begins to see floor, ceiling, and wall finishes inspired by the existing wooden trusses to include warm natural wood finishes, and a sophisticated navy blue tile at the new Kitchen area. The lower level exterior of Cass Hall receives new masonry design to better match it to the new expansion. Landscaping to tie in the expansion begins to complete the design outside. Lower level of Haggar Center gets updated finishes and cabinetry, reflecting the sophistication of the dining area, with bold accent colors and tile and timeless neutrals.

East Campus
New Construction
Classrooms continue to develop with fixtures, lighting, and ceilings going in through the month of June. The Art and Fabrication classrooms will be large spaces with high ceilings for openness and natural light, as well as neutral finishes to represent the canvas for student creation and imagination. Humanities and Collaboration spaces will feature sophisticated soft curved walls and blue tones to denote places of collaboration and studying. The theater's main entry starts coming together, creating a glimpse of the grand staircase that will cascade down the façade.
West Campus
Renovations
Demolition continues in the lower level of Cass Hall, with new wall framing beginning to shape the Finance Offices. The new entry vestibule in lower Haggar will bring openness to the entry into the new Finance and President’s/Development/Communications Offices. Construction on the Fox Dining Hall continues, showcasing the new updated space for the expanded Kitchen and Servery area. The dining expansion creates energizing light and beautiful views out to the nature and tree tops of West Campus.

East Campus
New Construction
The north side of the building, facing the soccer field, is completed, creating amazing views out to the field. Inside, lights go up, walls are being painting, and the ceiling is being installed. The theater balcony concrete is poured, and scaffolding fills the space to allow for painting and the installation of acoustical clouds that will hang from the ceiling. The breezeway between the French Family Center and the new East Campus Building, which students will use to travel from one building to the other, begins to take shape.
