University Meets Goals for Aesthetics and Performance
Arkansas State University’s Humanities and Social Sciences building will greet its first students in the upcoming 2015-16 academic year. AMR Architects designed the building’s exterior to complement the campus’ historic architecture and its modern interior to offer quiet, comfortable learning spaces. Helping accomplish these goals, the new building features Rockfon’s ceilings systems throughout its 120,000-square-foot, four-story facility.
“The new building will be at the heart of every ASU student’s experience on this campus,” says Dr. Lauri Umansky, former dean of the Humanities and Social Sciences. “Our courses engage students deeply in the world around them. And we have a first-rate faculty. That we will soon be able to offer this kind of high-quality education from a spectacular, state-of-the-art facility is truly exciting.”
