Designed by Astorino to foster interdisciplinary collaboration, the building will house the departments of English, journalism, political science, philosophy, history, religious studies, geography, and regional planning. The five-story, 126,505-sf facility will provide 31 classrooms, 120 faculty and administrative offices, laboratories, a 250-seat auditorium, eight conference rooms, a media room, and an atrium. Ground was broken on the project in November of 2013 and completion is expected by January of 2016.
