| Additional/Description Justification | ||
| The additional space for the School of Business will mean the school will be able to offer more programs in areas such as Agri-Business, Entrepreneurship, and Finance. The School of Business has out grown its present allotted space in Bradford Hall and is projected to continue to increase program size at a rate of 5 percent per year. Bradford Hall has structural issues and is recommended for "major renovation and assign to a new use or demolition" in the VFA Facility Condition Report. | ||
This will be a 65,200 square feet 4 story building with 12 large classrooms, 5 medium size classrooms, 5 small seminar rooms, two computer labs and three 160 person auditoriums. It is further recommended in the KSU Master Plan, that this building feature a lower level parking structure, accessible from East Main Street, retail space on its street level floor and a small short term parking lot off E. Main St. The architectural character should build on the existing architecture of the new Young Hall dormitory to the east and utilize similar materials such as brick and glass. The new building should also employ some of the vocabulary of the north campus, including less reflective, more transparent glass. Assessment and Space Study Report.
