Replaces Robinson Hall and renovates Harris Hall. The new 218,000 square foot academic and research facility includes a small addition to the Harris Theater to meet restroom requirements and interior renovations to correct the most critical deficiencies created by separating the building from Robinson Hall. The new building will continue to provide the largest number of classrooms and serve as a main hub for digital/hybrid delivery capabilities by outfitting appropriate technologies and support live classroom delivery simultaneously or via digital content to multiple locations. This capability will expand accessibility in training the knowledge workforce throughout the region. This portion of the project will be financed from the issuance of 9(d) bonds.
