Designed by Goodwyn, Mills and Cawood, the two-wing, 160,000-sf project will house the departments of anthropology, computer and information sciences, English, foreign languages and literatures, mathematics, philosophy, and social work. The technology-rich building will also include spacious classrooms, a 300-seat auditorium, administrative offices, performance areas, and a storm shelter. The general contractor for the facility is M.J. Harris Construction Services. Occupancy is expected in fall of 2019.
