The ground level now houses four new general assignment classrooms, both traditional and active-learning format. The first level houses the student services and diversity departments, along with a board room, student commons area, and Student Success Center offices. The second level includes administrative offices, conference and collaboration areas, and classrooms. The third and fourth levels house additional office and classroom space.
