The new academic building consists of 26 classrooms, two auditoriums, faculty offices, large meeting spaces, program and support space, and study areas, and a new home for arts, film, and photography departments which includes a film studio, digital media labs, and a darkroom for film development. A first floor study lounge features a learning stair with views out to the new landscaping and campus green.
