Now that the Applied Health Sciences (AHS) Expansion Building is complete, we’re turning our attention to the outdoor courtyard bordered by three buildings.
“The courtyard has great potential to be a vibrant outdoor space for our students to enjoy year-round,” says Recreation and Leisure Studies (RLS) Chair Troy Glover, who co-ordinated a design charette in early June to gather community input for the project.
Some of the ideas put forward include installing a deck, redesigning the pathways to make them more inviting, expanding the green space and possibly including a community garden.
“Outdoor space is important for both physical and mental health,” says Troy, “so it’s a natural fit for AHS.”
Stand by for details on the final design.
