Grayson College Gets Approval for New Construction

  • 01/02/18

Grayson College CenterNew construction projects are planed in the upcoming months for Grayson College in Grayson County, TX. A new viticulture lab and student success building project were recently approved by the Grayson College Board of Trustees.

The new student success center will be located behind the administration building for the college (pictured), while the viticulture center will reside alongside the current Viticulture and Enology center.

The new student success center will feature administrative offices and also contain a math hub and testing center. The project will also provide much-needed study space for students. The viticulture lab and student success center are joining other recent planned construction projects at Grayson, including a 100-bed dorm and various other facility improvements on-campus.

The two projects are being funded by reserves budgeted by the institution without using bonds. Plyler Construction of Sherman, TX, will be handling both projects.

  • Can AI Help Build Stronger Communities in Student Housing?

    Student housing success is shifting from operational performance to student experience, with belonging now at the center. A recent 2025 report underscores a growing emphasis on student well-being, community, and engagement, signaling that expectations now extend beyond logistics to ensure students feel supported in their living environments. AI is enabling that shift by reducing administrative workload and giving teams more time to focus on meaningful student engagement.

  • Designing for Every Mind

    Learning environments have the power to shape not just what students know, but who they become. When a school is designed with genuine empathy—for the full range of ways students think, sense, and engage with the world—it becomes more than a building. It becomes a catalyst for growth, confidence, and belonging. That is the animating idea behind neurodiverse design, and it is one that is transforming how more architects and designers are thinking about school design.
