This fall, the newest addition to Oregon State University’s already stunning campus will officially open. Austin Hall<\/a> is set to open its doors in the fall of 2014, and its 100,000 square feet of space will include\u00a0ten classrooms, a 250-seat auditorium, collaborative team rooms, more than 70 faculty offices, staff and program offices, a caf\u00e9 and an event space. Last week, faculty, staff and students from the College of Business traded in their laptops for hardhats for the afternoon for an up close tour of the project.<\/p>\n

College of Business Dean Ilene Kleinsorge brought along several students from the Dean’s Student Leadership Council (DSLC) on the Austin Hall tour. Kleinsorge says that she’s most excited about the “creativity and innovation that Austin Hall will inspire among our students, faculty and staff.”<\/p>\n

This was the second tour for business student Obum Gwacham, who said “One of the biggest surprises is the amount of space the building will have for students to sit back and just work on their computer, work on projects, or even sit down and gather their thoughts.”<\/p>\n

College of Business Director of Operations Malcom LeMay agrees. “I think the Digital Commons will be one of the more popular spots on campus for students to study and collaborate, and I can’t wait to see the Marketplace full of students enjoying the fireplace,\u201d said LeMay.<\/p>\n

Everyone on the tour was very impressed and excited about the new space opening in just a few more months, and business students, staff and faculty will surely feel the same once they see it. But don’t just take our word for it. Pictures\u2014like actions\u2014speak louder than words, so see for yourself and check out some photos of the construction updates below!<\/p>\n
