Description
Graduate students are a vital part of the campus community, often acting as conduits between
undergraduates and faculty. They teach courses and conduct research to advance their studies, yet
without a centralized location for their programs, the 30+ faculty and graduate instructors that make up
the Department of World Languages and Cultures are currently scattered across four locations. By
creating spaces dedicated to graduate students, the new building will create a unified, collaborative
environment that propels both teaching and research to the next level. The grad studies carrels will
facilitate space for course prep, grading, and reading while encouraging students to spend more time
talking to and learning from each other.
